Honestly, it sounds like you have checked out of the relationship.

If you actually want to rebuild, I strongly recommend finding a counsellor who works for both of you and can help you establish productive communication.

It’s cliche, but right now you are ‘Me’ focused. You need to be ‘We’ focused.

Not sure I’d call a big enduro sled ‘micromobility’ - and I say that as someone who has two enduro bikes. They are just about the worst possible bikes for urban use - and urban use is about the worst possible use of this bike. The Vala wants to be pointed down the sort of steep lines you couldn’t descend on foot.

Beautiful bike (if overpriced) though.

Description was added after my original post and I agree it’s bad (looks like AI generated drek). That said, the video is good and worth a watch.

Well thanks for that - it’s solid discussion!

Is there a reason this is being down voted so much? I’ve only watched the first few minutes and I was actually surprised I hadn’t come across this channel before.

I went to your Lemmy profile, nothing there.

Thanks for providing the link - but I think that you should have posted it here instead of responding with derision.

I’m assuming you meant to include an image here?

I live through the smoke every year, and have had to retrofit a ton of of air filters into my home. Believe me, I know - I live and play in the areas that are burning. But someone asking for a reference is a GOOD thing and responding dismissively doesn’t sway people to better understand, it turns them off of your message.

I don’t see any of the pinned posts in your post or comment history. While I agree on the urgency of addressing climate change and agree that we need to substantially increase the speed of our deployment of renewables, it’s completely reasonable for someone to ask for sources.

We need MORE fact checking, not less. When someone asks me for sources, I’m THRILLED to share with them, because that is someone who is interested and thinking critically. It’s someone I can have a dialogue with.

I LOVE that idea! One of our resident cats is a pain to give meds to so I’ll give it a try!

And yes, Bo is half (or so) Bengal. He came to us completely feral but needed those meds so he didn’t go the TNR route. He’s turned into a super friendly guy who craves getting pets - just took a bit to get there. He’s also basically vocal chords on four legs - sings all day long.

If anyone is interested in adopting, he’s listed with MEOW in Calgary, Canada!

66% of our resident cats are on prescription diets. Total non-issue. I think people just worry about other unanticipated costs.

My partner and I foster a lot of cats. Some of the sweetest cats take forever to get adopted just because they aren’t kittens anymore. One of our fosters has been with us for almost three years now - just because he isn’t a kitten and needs some inexpensive meds sprinkled on his food once a day.

How did I not think of that?

She’s discovered that she can get ‘mom time’ by jumping up on the desk we have in the room because oh man, do they never let her rest otherwise.

Yep - I identify as male, but I put he/they in my email signature because I a) want to signal active support for the trans community and b) don’t really think about my own gender much and kind of like de-gendering my language wherever possible.

Totally agree.

Moderating models for safety is a problematic idea. Prusa then bears liability in the event that a model fails. 3D printing works only because it’s the person who physically makes the print who has the ultimate responsibility to determine if it is safe and fit for purpose.

If you don’t like the competitions, don’t take part. Personally I view them as a nice way to encourage the community to share ideas.

That’s a great, useful print. I’m firing up the printer as I type this!

This reads like a train wreck start to finish.

Yep - I made the model.

I’m going to dig through the slicer file and see if there’s anything wonky with the number of perimeters.

No infill, solid walls
