Today I learned a grease gun is not as easy as it looks lol.(one whole canister and a whole role of paper towels used). Bought another with 10,000 PSI and that one at least looked like it was moving grease!

Love the 3d / STL vector! @jessegenet . Im using Fusion and iterating back and forth w/ Github copilot to generate URDF's (it generated my URDF Plugin tool also)
So, @openclaw can use a computer but lacks physicality… I’ve been solving that by taking photos of physical things (like books to digest), but what if I gave it access to my 3D printer!? Going to see what this can do for our homeschool curriculum 📚🤓

Sharing a post from my favorite hobby! I've been diving more into the scale model accessories to augment the builds. gaelhobbies.com/blog/highlig…

For those who know, the fun I had with this disk. New techs could bring down a whole cubicle farm and I could role in with this puppy and save the day! #network #classic #retro

Agreeing here @flying0racer. Now to watch the cult of “wait til the official report comes out” crowd starts chiming in, meanwhile md11s rolling down the runways. It is a weird cult that isn’t grounded in aviation safety.
“A transcript of the cockpit voice recorder, which contained two hours and four minutes of good quality digitally recorded audio, will be made public in several months, Inman said.” Don’t love this. I believe the NTSB is the only AIB in the world that does this.

In my studies of WW2, the HMS Acasta is one that should be shared more broadly with her fighting to the end against the Scharnhorst . For the overall battle that occurred, just this ship's engagement is worth anyones time to down a rabbit hole into stories of the crew's bravery on 8 June, 1940. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Ac…. The broader story of the HMS Glorious along with critical nature of aerial reconnaissance could fill many X posts. #WW2 #bravery #navalhistory #HMSAcasta

Remember this well!
#OTD in 2010: an explosion and fire on the Deepwater Horizon BP oil rig off the Louisiana coast in the Gulf of Mexico killed 11 workers and caused a massive oil spill. Not a plane crash off course, but a good lesson for engineering safety. (More info below⬇️⬇️ )
