  • I’ve been reading T. Kingfisher lately and in absolutely in love. I picked up The Hollow Places thinking it would probably be a waste but it’s become my favorite book. I’ve just started What Moves the Dead, and in already hooked, her descriptive ability is immaculate.

    I would also recommend The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Sterling, Hide by Kiersten White, and Bunny by Mona Awad.




  • I don’t own one of these but I took a look at the specks and I’m pretty confident I can give you some pointers.

    First and foremost, you need an enclosure petg is going to cool way too fast if they thing is open air. My best advice would be to shove it in a closet or build a cabinet around it if you’re so inclined. The mega printer I’m working on is going in a converted curio hutch.

    Second, there’s never enough adhesion. If you’re running pla, put a good layer of pva glue down on your bed before a print. Between that, texture and brim you should get a hold. If you’re not worried about playing fast and loose, you can print your first layer tight to the table for just a smidge more grab.

    Lastly, I think the other poster is right about speed, taller parts get shakey. The housing will help with this by preventing ambient drafts, and you can use to to prevent frame shake if it’s sturdy enough, but going slow is always a good idea.





  • Honestly, Warframe should be what every corpo gaming company is trying to emulate. There’s a so much content, amazing game play, stupidly complex story, the monetization doesn’t harm the playerbase or limit the game, and the devs not only care, but actively play the game themselves.

    They’ve got a dozen different genres of game crammed in there now, don’t want first person shooter? You can play space battle, kiju hunter, street fighter, fishing sim, cabalela’s big game hunter, tony hawk pro skater 2, interior design sim, and more without ever opening a different game. I keep trying to play something else and keep going back because it’s both a fun and exciting game, and playing different game modes reward you with things that help your other game modes. Imagine if spending an hour shooting things in CoD and fishing in animal crossing rewarded you with better magic in Skyrim.

    Frankly, corpo companies spend millions to have this kind of walled garden system and warframe managed to do it on a budget and to the player’s benefit instead of harm. It’s what gaming needs to strive to be.
