Hit up local government auctions. Sometimes they sell 2-4 computers in a lot, sometimes they sell 157. I got 4 Lenovo mini computers for $34 each in an auction a while back. They only needed hard drives.

So, “Die Hard Chocolate”?

Yippie Kiyay!

Little bit of column A, little bit of column B… 🙂

But mostly, I am sick and home from work and watched it (mostly) with my eyes closed while drifting in and out of sleep.

That’s my go-to movie. I have probably watched it 30+times. I am sick, and just watched it yesterday. 😂

A lathe!?

Get off the line, Guy!

That’s great! Thank you!

I am partial to Prusa printers, but if you want an easy out-of-the-box experience, the Bambu printers are hard to beat.

flyers in mailboxes

Regarding putting anything in mailboxes - it is actually a federal crime to put something in a mailbox unless it is properly addressed for delivery through the postal system, or you are a postal worker. I would refrain from doing that.

That’s great! Thank you!

To the org that provides support to those abducted by ICE. Each state or geographical area has a different org and number, so unless you print blank whistles, you need to ensure that you have the correct info.

I apologize for not getting back sooner.

That is a great whistle, but way too much filament and print time compared to the ICE whistles that have been optimized for print speed, noise volume and size for easy carry.

The advantage of printed whistles is being able to put the phone number on the whistle. Trying to get a phone number on a bulk whistle is not easy.

Oh man, can you imagine like 50 of them at once? That would be nightmare fuel.

Gorignak!

I have a 3D printer, so I went with these and a drawer to organize.

Well, you could get this to go to PS/2: https://www.cableleader.com/6-din5-female-to-mini-din6-male-at-to-ps-2-keyboard-adapter-cable.html

Then this to get from PS/2 to USB if you need to: https://www.cableleader.com/usb-type-a-male-to-ps2-6-pin-female-converter-for-logitech.html

There were / are a couple of subreddits, 3dprintmything and another I forgot. Maybe there is a similar community on Lemmy?
