Well great... Getting a uniform paint coat on fine plaster is an art... I give up. It stays sh*t.. It's the 20th of December. The whole house is a construction site. Fridge empty. Dust and dirt in the kitchen, hallway and the bathrooms are a mess. Visitors arriving on the 24th.... Gahhhh! #paintjob

Damn I think the window for a Job-Change before 2 decades of unemployment and retirement is closing. I will be 50 next year.
I have to start a harebrained idea like becoming a full time YouTuber hiring attractive young women to do tech teardown videos... Here are your screwdrivers, camera rolling 🤪

Got my factory assembled #Prusa Core ONE+ yesterday. New user experience so far:
1) Damn this thing is fast (only tried PLA so far) compared to my old Zortrax M200. Like 4-5 times faster.
2) Motor load based end-stops suck. Banging the head repeatedly into the top right corner can't be good for...

Hey you #VitaminD junkies?
How much do you take per day?
1000, 2000, 5000, 10000I.U. ?
With K2 + Ca + Mg or without?
Just trying to find my personal sweet spot without ridiculous overdosing.
Still have 2 blood tests here to play check what's what...

Hm ich muss meine alte #Viessmann Trimatik Heizung mal umstellen... Timermodus nur noch für Warmwasser auf 50°C morgens und abends und "irgendwie" die Heizung im Timermodus durchlaufen lassen. Also ohne Absenkung zwischen 0:00 und 23:59 - Was macht das Teil dann in der einen Minute vor Mitternacht?!

Sigh 3rd Advent approaching and I have to paint my raw walls where the in-wall heating was installed. I am aching all over already from cutting the skirting boards yesterday... Breakfast, Coffee, where is my @autumnivy.net muscle mommy motivation when I need it?!

Snacking on #VitaminD (+K2+Mg) like a champ now to see me through the last working week. I need a Vitamin D spiked advent calendar... 24 doors with Vitamin D spiked chocolate. Is anybody selling these?!

Well great I have 20 paint roller handles in the workshop and none fit the new paint rolls I bought…When did they switch diameter? And the professional paint roll from the trustworthy paint supply shop doesn’t fit on ANY handles from the hardware store…. Great! I probably need an RFID paired handle.

Wenn ich die Worte "Regierung" und "Rente" in einem Satz höre könnte ich schon kotzen. Leute für die das primäre Ziel ist "wie verliere ich am wenigsten Wähler" und die das eigentliche Ergebnis sowieso persönlich nicht betrifft entscheiden über unsere Zukunft. Super!

😝 YouTube Recap - The Adventurer. Yes I make up for my utter lack of being adventurous and being stuck in a decrepit house that needs constant care by watching ItchyBoots and WalkWithMeTim. If I would be the person that watches those videos I would be an awesome world traveled beast... 😝

Wowza... Had a quick intro in writing #AI agent frontends today. I am so not sold on all this BS: Enter credit card number here, get API key and tokens. Join results of 5 faulty databases that contain mistakes into an ultra confident AI answer that is utterly wrong. 🤮 - Am I getting old ???

Wurstel seit 3 Wochen an meiner #Heizkurve der Ölheizung rum, da ich dieses Jahr in zwei Räume eine #Wandheizung mit RTL-TH Reglern einbauen hab lassen. Zufälligerweise waren dass die Räume mit den längsten Leitungswegen. Ein RTL Regler steht auf 30° und der andere auf 35° Vorlauftemperatur...

Dang... Wasted the whole day to print one lousy simple part on my hacked printer... Still failing... Print warps and separates from PEI plate after 1 hour... I need to dump that printer and buy something that works out of the box. 🤬🤬🤬

Most of the time #AliExpress works. Sometimes you lose: Please avoid "Hhiddo Official Store" - Ordered a product on 17th Sept. Delivery promised on 11th October and they keep updating the fake status every few weeks. Now it's in customs processing since 3 weeks. Need a block function in the app!!

Damn, I need a #Bambu X2D ... Dual extruder but not so big as the H2D... Screw the AMS. I want to print with different support material... Can't wait for the #Snapmaker U1 to come out and the SW to mature and the #Prusa XL dual head is too expensive and the #Snapmaker J1S looks already abandoned.

Maybe we should replace our politicians with AI? Ok we might need to eat a stone per day to reach our mandatory recommended intake of nutritious rock, but an erratic AI with 50% hit and miss is still better than a rigged system that benefits the rich 100% of all times…. 🤷♂️
