On a similar note, they make healies in adult sizes. Got a pair for my 21st as a gag gift, and ended up using them to walk my dog all the time. He's a lil guy, but hes a dense 15lbs of muscle and he could pretty easily pull me up to that "oh shit" speed.

You know, I don't think I've ever thought about your second point. That's a pretty great idea!

If this happens again, and youre really insistant on reading that answer, people are saying the wayback machine should have that info for you. It's sorta a win-win because you still get your answer and reddit doesnt get the revenue from your usage.

My SO also gets a lot of great travel and cooking tips from Tik Tok. She only recently made her reddit account lol. But that is for a medical forum, so also one that I dont expect to transition. Luckily for me, almost everything I used to follow was techy in some way, so I'm not bothered by the difference in content over here.

Yeah pretty much. As soon as facebook broke the ice on "never use your real name on the internet" it was over. Now we have entire generations that were introduced to the internet as one that was ruled by social media sites. They were never even taught the same online safety stuff that we grew up with.

F-Droid is like the play store, but with all FOSS apps. You have to side load it, and then it essentially side loads all the apps you want from it's store. Its pretty neat!

She cares about the environment man! And and she like, stood in front of an oil port!! I can't think of anything more extreme leftist terrorist than that

Absolutely! I've made adaptors and replacement bits for my and my brothers 90's cars. The kind of little plastic bits and clips that aren't nearly crucial enough for anyone to make anymore. That and custom desk/cabinet organizers are the kind of thing that you can only reasonably accomplish with a 3D printer.

There are certainly other ways that you can just save money, but I've found the most satisfying thing is when you find a niche like this that simply could not be done without a printer. I don't even have anthing crazy expensive, I did most of my printing on an Anet A8 and only recently "splurged" by getting a prusa mini.

I've always wondered if an xcom style game from the perspective of the federation troops would be cool. Federation Force was very cartoony, which is fine, but the metroid universe is such a gritty horrifying experience for anyone who isnt Samus and I'd love to see a perspective that reflects that. Plus, it would be cool to struggle with your troops through the whole game and then at somepoint have Samus join for a brief sequence and put everything else to shame.

Fire emblem and advance wars are also great picks!

I'm not sure who would've downvoted you there, but yeah I live in an already car dominated city with 90+ degree humid weather for months straight. I DO have a bycicle but it's just not a feasible form of travel for me.
