@Emgee549111 Don't have your number

Would anyone want to build some tipjet drones as Hilux transportable "apache drone" gunships of sorts? People tried to make tipjet vehicles in the ~1950s Again early 2010s and recently late 2010s Almost all of them failed in obscurity Perhaps it is your time to give it a go?

@DeltaClimbs I've been vac forming for nearly 30 years. The one thing America can definitely compete with China on is plastics manufacturing.

Is this evidence of the viability of starting manufacturing businesses, or an indicator of the capital inefficiency and carelessness with which (most) American businesses spend money on suppliers? What will bring about a return to competition when endogenous shocks fail?

@3D_Fuel I like it. We've ordered a lot of 4kg spools. Likely placing an order soon.

The only waste is the vac-seal bags - we include a pre-paid return shipping label for the rest. No more individual boxes. No more empty spools. No more time spent swapping refills. FarmFuel starts shipping next week: 3dfuel.com/products/farmf…

@lukas_m_ziegler Shooting down drones autonomously

pitch me your robotics startup in one line

I've been printing since 2015, drooling at the tech since makerbot in the early 2000s. We run a print supply and printing retail store to connect with the community locally and a farm in conjunction with other production equipment. I was hand sculpting molds, pouring rubber, and casting resin since the late 90s. There's your background. Prusa has always had a reputation for quality and a reliability factor that's unmatched. However, the machines are ridiculously expensive. I hate bambu. Period. Finally broke down and got our shop a p1s this past black Friday. The AMS is missing features like drying, the lcd screen is very 2019, it forces you to run through the cloud and have functional controls on a computer, the slicer is nothing more than a rebranded orca, the hot end design is not easily replaced with a quick swap. Their ecosystem is a selling point for newbies, but I have met so many that still don't understand basic maintenance or how to manipulate files that didn't come ready to go from makerworld. I have seen and interacted with so many that say "I bought my first 3d printer and am starting a 3d printing business" yet they don't know any of the ins and outs of running production on any level. We have similar enclosed machines from a multitude of companies. The elegoo centauri carbon has been the most reliable and all around workhorse of a machine. You can not beat a machine that works for $300 and has better features than bambu if you understand printing in general. That is a sad reality. I just bought us 2 more and a carbon 2 to start testing, all for the price of one prusa. An even sadder reality there. Im closing, keep up the good work. Keep innovating. Rest easy knowing you're a pioneer that set a precedence to be copied. It is truly the highest form of flattery for those who can't be creative originally.

This is what I keep coming back to. So many companies in the US and Europe, driven out of the printer business over the last few years. Each one was its own thing, there was a place for everyone, and we were all friends sharing innovations across the industry. Now everything is just a copy of a copy of a copy 📉 I'd do anything I can to make that possible again. I miss a lot of my friends from this business.

@uribrito Ty. I think I needed to see this today. Bookmarking to study again. Tough times testing me rn.

I was chatting with one of my deacons earlier today about the nature of leadership in the political realm and what it entails to lead in an age of perfectionism/idealism. Even on this most blessed platform, there is a host of voices insisting that Trump should be doing more here, moving faster there, or fixing every instance of cultural and institutional decay overnight. That level of accountability is needed, and often quite helpful. But much of that criticism reveals a lack of proportion and, frankly, a forgetfulness about what came before him. We had a Bidenized America, which was cackling its way to oblivion... *catch my drift. People talk around here as though he inherited a healthy nation with stable institutions and merely failed to maximize opportunities, and unless a Christianized epoch cometh soon, we are lost. But that is not reality. The President inherited a deeply fractured political order, bureaucratic resistance at every level (think FBI), and decades of cultural and moral decline that no single administration could reverse in a few years. In no way am I insinuating that Trumpism does not have room for improvement. I have a few thousand suggestions myself, but wisdom requires some historical memory, and I suspect that the idealist is dementia-ridden. Further, one of the best cures for political perfectionism is simple: manage something yourself for a little while. Lead a business, pastor a church, oversee a school, run a household, or organize a community project....start a fundraising campaign for Sister Susy's Sunday School aquarium. And very quickly, you discover that change rarely comes all at once. Progress is often incremental, uneven, and slower than ideal. But you also learn in the process that every decision carries unintended consequences, competing pressures, and limitations that outsiders rarely see. This is where gratitude becomes essential... especially in the political realm, for those of us who are outside observers. Gratitude trains us to recognize genuine victories instead of treating them as meaningless because they are incomplete. A grateful people can acknowledge movement in the right direction without pretending everything is perfect. We can all celebrate small restorations without demanding immediate utopia. Eschatology matters. Pastorally speaking, this matters because a spirit of constant dissatisfaction eventually hollows people out. It creates cynicism disguised as discernment. And cynicism rarely builds anything lasting. But mature judgment recognizes both the imperfections that remain and the mercies that are present at the same time. And I think we need a healthy dose of optimism in our day, and I remain grateful for the Trump presidency and pray for this administration as often as I can. God bless our President!

@MindShift2018 @canonpress Oh no, scary conservative Christian values are going against her sinful nature.

Doug Wilson is building a Christian nationalist agenda, aiming to transform towns, states, and even the world into a 'Christian nation.' This ideology fuels fear and distrust, while exploiting existing prejudices. #ChristianNationalism #Politics #Idaho

“For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie.” Brothers and sisters in Christ, say no to the next government psyop.

@tjmorris_bear Psyops, psyops everywhere

I’ve been saying it for 8 years. But… trust the “new media” all you want.

@infantrydort Deport or naturalize and pay taxes

And we're telling DHS to 'prepare now' to deport them because rules are rules.

Why is there a lack of supply? 1) air bnb 2) illegals Fixed it for you.

@maniaUFO We got a lot going on rn. Will you just get it over with already?

Paul Hertz, Director of the Astrophysics Division of the NASA, shared at IMGUR this amazing statement about aliens.

@sarahadams @ChrisMZiegler @GovRonDeSantis No. I-10 bridge after Ivan, PNS/gulf breeze reconstruction after Sally. These projects took years and were a disaster. These morons take years to repave roads while they milk government contracts with overruns.

@ChrisMZiegler @GovRonDeSantis The bridge would already be back up if it were in Florida

Florida may need to loan @GovRonDeSantis to Maryland for a week.

@overclassifiedx We have a lot going on rn. Can we move this along to the next psyop?

🚨 CONGRESSMAN DROPS ALIEN BODY BOMBSHELL: SWORN TESTIMONY CONFIRMS RECOVERED EXTRATERRESTRIAL REMAINS! 👽🛸💥 "IT'LL DISRUPT EVERYTHING!" In a jaw dropping interview on Doing Time with George Santos, Rep. Tim Burchett, the fearless UAP Caucus leader who's survived multiple classified briefings from every alphabet agency, went nuclear: “We have sworn testimony that there are recovered alien bodies.” “We’ve been briefed on locations.” He described a fellow Congressman and close friend pulling him aside: “Tim, why do you wanna do this? Don’t you know this is gonna disrupt everything?” This isn't fringe theory, it's building directly on Burchett's April 2026 briefings where he saw "incredible photos" and intel so explosive it would "come unglued" the country (as he told NewsNation and others). It echoes David Grusch's 2023 sworn congressional testimony on non human biologics from crash retrieval programs, now elevated with on the record locations and insider warnings about total societal upheaval. With Trump previously teasing UAP file releases in early 2026, is full disclosure finally here? Or are the gatekeepers still fighting to protect religions, economies, and power structures from the ultimate paradigm shift? Burchett isn't suicidal, he's saying the quiet part out loud. What happens next?

I’m convinced dolphins are going extinct because the military thinks every dolphin that’s not our own CIA spy dolphin is an enemy spy dolphin and there’s a spec ops unit that goes around harpooning all the non-CIA dolphins on sight

@JaredDHardin It's the Bible, not star wars. Start to finish.

If I want to read the entire Bible, should I just start at Genesis and let it rip, or start with the New Testament first then back to the Old Testament?

@PhilipJohnston Angels don't exist

Pro tip for founders raising an angel round: When an angel gives a range of potential investment amount like “I can do $10-20k” or “$1-2m”, no matter the range or progress of your round, always ask for the lower number. Here’s what “$100-200k” translates to: 1. “I can do $100k without asking anyone else’s opinion and if you lose it, it’s not the end of the world for me.” 2. “If you lose me $200k it will be kinda annoying and I should probably check with my partner.” Also, as nice bi-product, investors like it when you don’t need them, and if you ask for the top of the range, they get suspicious that you are desperate. Asking for the bottom signals demand. But, I hear you cry, what if you actually 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 the money?? Still ask the bottom. It’s much easier to close two checks at the bottom of the range than one at the top.
