Something you can be proud to tell your grandkids about one day. "Kids, a storm be a brewin' - I can feel it in my bones. Because I once broke my hand on a Nazi's face."

Damn, I love Legal Eagle and was secretly hoping he'd have a video explaining things aren't nearly as bad as the media is making it out to be. But yeah, just further confirmation of just how terrible this decision was.

I don't think condoms were popularized in the 1930s.

Edit: Apparently they were around then and just began being mass-produced. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condom

It does read like fanfic, but the scary part is all that shit would be legal.

My only regret... is that I have boneitis.

Threads where people find out they're allergic to something or colorblind are my favorite. I'm always amazed that people can live their whole lives just accepting something because they don't know any different and haven't talked to anyone about it.

Seeing someone go "wait, strawberries aren't spicy??" or "you guys are joking right? those images look the same!" always makes my day.

Dry your filament! (sh.itjust.works)

I love in Colorado, which is a pretty dry state, so while I had heard of "wet filament", I never considered it to be a problem that I would have to worry about. I had seen people creating dry storage bins for their filament, but figured that must just be for people in humid climates.

When I first bought my 3D printer a few years ago, I did what most people probably do - I bought a 10 pack of different filament colors. Everything printed great for a while, but eventually, my prints just started to kind of suck. I made a few upgrades to my printer, but still couldn't pinpoint what was going on. What was frustrating, is that some times my prints would be great - but other times I couldn't even print the most simple prints without problems.

I eventually noticed that my great prints were from newer filament that I had recently purchased, but my bad prints were coming from spools I've had sitting out for a while. So I purchased a $40 filament dryer on Amazon and it instantly fixed all the problems I'd been having.

I feel dumb, because I had gone through three different extruders, new hot ends, new nozzles, tubing, and spent tons of time cleaning and tightening stuff on my printer. I had left my printer untouched for months because it was just so frustrating. Something as simple as old filament left out never occurred to me until much later.

TLDR; If your prints have started to suck after a while, you might want to try drying your filament.
