Try green tea. Slight perk up. Minimal caffeine. Good antioxidants. Drink no more than 2 a day. Stick to a single one each morning or time of day your groggy. Let your body readjust and you’ll feel a lot better.

What goes up must come down. Cause And effect. I feel this deeply. I been thinking about this a lot. Glad to see someone else nailed it.

Look for different types of automotive push clips, construction adhesive like loctite 3PL or similar.

See what the manufacturer uses and do that.

Joplin and Obsidian.

Encrypt your data period. A burglar isn’t going to worry about your home lab unless it’s oozing money from the look of it.

Your family and friends will be the ones to snoop your data. So know that and prepare accordingly.

A thief is going to steal car wheels, weapons, tools, electronics that seem resellable, gold and jewelry, things of immediate value to sell or trade for most likely drugs. Quick cash.

Scrolled the entire page. Just to not see hill climb racing, and slither.io

Me asf. I feel deeply attacked.

Nvidia is only good for business and AI. Gaming, their drivers sucks their GPUs are a hassle to deal with. It blows my mind their valuated so highly… AMD all the way.

Fail fast and fail forward. Don’t be afraid to start, be afraid of looking back having never done anything. Regret is poison.

Learn what the pareto principle is and live by it. Be efficient.

When life gets hard focus on what’s in front of you not on the world, ideology, news, thats all distraction. Learn to stay in the moment, what’s right here, right now, infront of you.

Cherish loved ones. Focus on your health now. Your health can be gone at a moments notice, life is about balance. Every action has a reaction.

Focus on your strengths not your weaknesses. You have infinite weaknesses. Your strengths will be your lynchpin at times.

Always be curious. Don’t lose the will to learn and ask questions. Knowledge is everything.

Always stay moving physically that is biggest key to health diet and exercise and good sleep. Stay doing something productive. Being idle is the devils playground.

Listen to your gut during times of uncertainty. Trust very little of others. Words mean nothing. Actions never lie.

I have monetized all of my hobbies it is something I naturally do. I have been self employed my entire life aside from odd jobs.

Does it kill the passion? Somewhat but not in the way your thinking. That being said it opens a lot of doors to dive deeper into your passion and interest as well if you keep the flame alive. It’s all goal orientated.

What kills the hobbies are the pressure to perform even when your back is against the wall. Like when you have bills to pay and you rely on that money to survive that is what kills the drive for the hobbies. You start to do things for money, rather than pursuing things based on interest. This will taint your drive if you let it. But if you have strong enough passions it won’t kill them outright, more of burn you out on them until you grow in revenue passed the needs of life or give up and go back to a job. Once you make enough to survive fully at your own comfort level. Then that opens you up mentally again for the joy because the pressure is mostly gone and then you can utilize the monetary gains to reinvest in the hobby you love but on a grander scale, it opens your mind to options/dreams.

You shift from what you have to do, to what you can do.

Ahh shit. Ok so Prusa or Qidi is the way to go? I did some research last night. I’m just entirely new to the whole scene. So I’m a total noob.

I also heard Qidi is good and Prusa Core one.

I want 3d printing as a hobby and less tinkering. I have 500 to 1000 dollar budget. What’s that get me?

Wait. I thought bambu made good printers? Why fuck them?

*I ask because I want a 3d printer for christmas and don’t know which to get. The bambu seems great.

Its been that long 😅 no way

Stabil 360 additive to fuel.

John Deere cough cough

Nvidia is propped up by LLM and AI stuff skyrocketing right now. Their GPUs for consumers are sub par. Their drivers suck. Their overhyped and overpriced. Anyone who’s built gaming rigs and PCs will likely tell you the same thing. Especially so if your using Linux of any kind. Their just not worth the hassle. Nvidia is a marketing company.

AMD beats in price, better drivers, and arguably performance when paired together CPU and GPU. When a consumer wants maximum dollar value I built 10 to 1 AMD systems.

Nvidia matches out or exceeds is specialty workstation type work loads but that is about it. That’s also entirely what’s propping up their hyper inflated company.

They should not us LUkS and instead use veracrypt for folders and files. That way if any repartitioning or modification is needed it’s simple in gparted or GNOME disks on mint.

Source is been there and done that. Luks partitions are not easily resized.

Buy more storage. Cheers. Awesome ratio.
