yay ci... will the fifth time be the charm? 🙃

@_KaylaSween @focusotter But yeah if money is no object the Bambu Labs P1S with the multiple filament handler is pretty sick. Supports multiple colors out of the box and videos I’ve seen of it look good. Happy to help answer any other questions you might have!

@_KaylaSween @focusotter Oh man, so I have an older Ender 3 Pro. It’s reliable and cheap (like sub $200 on sale), a good starter printer. Looks like they’ve made some updates since I got mine. I’ve got a buddy who has the Flashforge M5 and really likes it, says it’s super fast.

I want to get into 3D printing. Where do I start? Like what is the M1 MacBook of printers? Not the M3, but something user friendly and fairly good?

@toddlibby @crazeelala2u Congrats Paula! 🎉🎉🎉

@domitriusclark IMO, I’d wait for the new ones to come out in a couple months. Allegedly this is supposed to be a more major update than the 8/9 but 🤷‍♂️

Now that there’s 14 million Apple Watch models, which do i get? I’m just restarting my journey of trying to be active and am looking to get a new Apple Watch again (gave my OG model to my mother) Ultra 2? 8 or 9? Do i just get the SE?

@toddlibby @crazeelala2u @_KaylaSween @xirclebox No but she’s right 😂

@joostschuur @colbyfayock Ah, you’re right (that’s what I get for doing it from memory). Good to know, thanks!

@colbyfayock @_RichardSween I think you meant The Shard. Horizon 22 is now the highest viewing platform and it's free unlike The Shard. You need a ticket but sometimes you can get those on the day horizon22.co.uk

What's are some tips exploring London for a first time visitor?

@tdesseyn @_KaylaSween Ngl it took me a while to get past that stage but once I did it’s been glorious

@_RichardSween @_KaylaSween this is EXACTLY whats going to happen. i have the 15 pro and i held it no case for a few min and was terrified the whole time

i legitimately do not know how you hold your iphone without a case. this thing is so dang slippery 😂😂

@tdesseyn @_KaylaSween Watch, now I'm going to drop it this weekend and it's going to shatter

@tdesseyn Long time team case, finally went no case + screen protector with my 15 pro after @_KaylaSween pressured me into it. No regrets, much better experience. +1 for apple care as well, lol

@focusotter Jealous! It’s on my wishlist, hint hint @_KaylaSween

Building out my ornithopter! Landing ramp complete!

Big shoutout to @satchwerk , Lorraine, and everyone @MSCodeAcademies for all the work they do. Excited for Day 2 tomorrow!

Plus, every one of the coders today had their projects hosted to GitHub Pages. It sounds like a small thing but for them, having a live website they could share was huge.

Had a blast helping with coder evaluations @MSCodeAcademies today! This was their game project and boy they did not disappoint. These coders have only been writing JavaScript for two months and believe me they are doing better than I did two months into learning JS.
