Thanks for the reply. Pretty surprised, with that surface quality paired with the detail, I’d have thought it to be resin. Imagine the larger dimensions help.

Been weighing between a P1P or a resin printer. Maybe fdm isn’t so bad as long as it’s not printing minis.

There’s quite a bit of detail on the folds, was this on the X1C? What material is it? Did you need to do much post processing to get it to look this clean? What are it’s dimensions?

Something new or unusual, with a hint of interesting. Say you came up with a way to use an established procedure to measure something in a way it hasn’t been before, and that data is genuinely interesting - that would be novel data.

It’s not the gender being referred to as toxic, rather the societal expectation for men to behave a certain way - tougher, harder, to not show weakness through expressing emotion. Toxic masculinity can come from people of any gender.

That may just be the reporter simplifying to match the newspaper’s target audience.

There are different types of stem cell, true. My guess is that they’re talking about hematopoietic stem cells (hence bone marrow), and those are also found in the blood stream and collectible through periphery donation. The first link actually talks about PBSC donation in terms of bone marrow transplants in the opening paragraph.

We’ll find out for sure when they publish the journal next week :)

It’s called periphery blood stem cell donation apparently. Was curious and went looking. Linked in case you’re curious too.

There is another method that that isn’t really applicable here, which comes from donated umbilical cords and placentas that would otherwise be thrown away.

Are you sure they weren’t automatoffs?

Hadn’t heard of it, looks right up my alley. Wishlisted for the next sale :)

Not sure if you’re aware but the word ranger isn’t so much to do with being at a distance, as it does being on or patrolling a range (think forests, parks). That’s the natural connotation of the term.

Now when we apply that to fantasy, think of Aragorn from Lord of the Rings, or the Night’s Watch from Game of Thrones. Aragorn is introduced as a ranger, while the Night’s Watchmen fit similar duties as keepers of the wall and surrounding land (the range they’re charged with).

The theme of living off the land runs deep in the ranger fantasy, and so it gravitates to wooden bows and weapons with practical survival uses too.

Looks like he’s having a proper sage moment :’) “Duuude.. is this me having a realisation, or is it my brain cell.. what if he’s a pilot and my body his mecha, am I the brain cell having these thoughts”
