I really am trying to keep the posts down. Here are some science items I have been holding onto for a few days.
The new Mimaki 3D Printer can print 10 million colors in one model. The models look amazing and printing is becoming faster and more capable at a good but slow rate.
Lasers are in the news. The first one had scientists making their own solar flares with lasers to study how they work. The second had scientists controlling lightning using lasers and filament meta materials.
The last one is about Star Trek Phase II. The first movie was actually for a show where the crew worked on a revamped Enterprise. They couldn't get advertising, so it became a movie.
Good egg. 👍🏻
Honestly, props to you for this.
I don’t have the excess energy to expend on that sort of stuff myself, right now, but hopefully I can again soon. Right now Facebook just makes me sad (the notion that people can refuse to lose touch, but then also not invite me to their wedding? I don’t really get that. Like, either be my friend or don’t, you know? That’s one thing, anyway…)
But anyway, keep doing what you do. I’m glad you’re helping people like that. Sounds like it means a lot to them. 🙂
Delete facebook. From most of your comments it sounds like your family sucks anyway.
Yeah. I would say they do. I’ve kind of made peace with the fact that they/that won’t change.
Unfortunately this specific problem is not with family so much, but friends, or at least the people who are or were supposedly my “friends”…
But anyway, like I said in the other comment, the problem is that “going to ground” doesn’t really help anything. Like, life still goes on, even if I’m not on Facebook to see it. And then you run into someone in person and it’s like, “Oh yeah, we just got married last year.”
I guess in the end, this is just one of those things. I have to learn not to care. And perhaps maybe find some better friends, who actually bother to, we’ll, value me enough to invite me to things.
Anyway, it just sucks. The person who I thought was my “best friend” a decade ago, not bothering to invite me to their wedding? Hurt. But I can’t actually do anything about that. Just have to… Move on.
