    I hate the idea of treating homeless like babies. Most of these people got to where they are by choices. If they wanted to stay at the church they probably can. Most churches I know have cots for people down and out. If these people wanted to stay at the church they would have.










  • I started with a cr10s that I actually got for free. The first print was amazing, then every following attempt just shit it’s pants. I spent about 20 or 30 hours trying to look up what the fuck im doing wrong. Tried reprinting again and again and again tweaking settings only to fail and it was extremely infuriating. I then started disassembling and reassembling and found that my problem was a broken cable.

    Point of the story is I learned so much about 3D printing trying to figure out why the prints are not working. Now I got 2 more printers and if something goes wrong I can easily identify what’s wrong.

    Don’t give up hope. It could be that you have a broken machine, but it’s more likely that your settings are just wrong.







  • My older half brother was recently born. Dad was recently a horse farmer studying to be an engineer and mom was a recent HS grad (big age gap). Dad cheated on his ex wife to be with my mom. Unfortunately, there was a lot of violence in central America at this time so they decided to uproot and flee to live in Texas. They lived in a house with 4 families. My brother and I are born. Mom was a bus driver and a house maid, dad washed dishes and delivered newspapers. They only ate top ramen and soup to save every penny they can get to send money back to central america. Family gets involved with MS13, they have to move again and change identity. Luckily they saved enough to live in small town in Arizona. They recently started taking ESL classes so they can fit in but they only spoke spanish. Mom opens up small business selling novelty goods, dad gets good job at a newspaper. For them, everything was work or family at this time of their life. They never went on vacations or went to amusement parks or any of that. They barely ate out. They kept life minimal.

    I feel like I have an okay understanding of their life and situation at this age. Everyone here is making stories to show how it’s not possible to live the same life for some reason. My parents story is like the same as every Hispanic immigrant.
