Mind is lost in Anime & Movies.
My hobbies & things I like are many but currently its in the realm of Makers.
Trying to make the best of Life one day at a time.
@I3onkersTv@hobert_omar I see what you mean about the background. I missed that. Seeing that now, they definitely edited some other footage by adding in themselves, their RC's, and their own background (the extending the town) for the second half of the video.
@I3onkersTv@hobert_omar I believe it's actually traditional RC & models not Ai. But they definitely had an editing gap between the ship landing and them driving the RC's out.
I think it is also filmed at a real lake or pond. One of those sites where a bunch of people use RC replicas and reenact battles.
The #3DPrinting community can be an incredibly welcoming place, filled with wonderful people. Until you, knowingly or unknowingly, cross the wrong one(s). That's when you learn what happens when the welcome has worn out.
For the better part of this year, I thought something was going on, and last week I was informed my suspicions were correct:
I am "being cancelled" by some folks in the community.
I was told a couple of years ago this would happen as my follower count grew, because of the people I chose to associate with, and because I've been so outspoken about certain groups and brands.
I could go into a laundry list of specifics, detailing the things that've happened to me. I've posted about some of them as they've occurred.
I've always tried to be helpful, supportive, and encouraging. I've delighted in watching the personal and business successes, and commiserated with the setbacks, of those I associate with. I have bought and sent folks printers, parts, and filament when they didn't have the money to do it for themselves, even though I'm on a fixed income myself.
None of that matters to these folks.
If you don't like what they like, support who they support (with subs, bits, buying their merchandise, contributing to their Throne list, giving them free stuff, etc.), say nice things about the brands who sponsor them, they will actively work to exorcise you from what they see as "their" community.
They will lie about you, tell your mutuals it's either you or them, get folks to block you, and destroy your reputation and standing within the community. You don't have to believe me, but I've seen it happen. Several Twitch streamers I used to watch no longer stream because of them. And it's happened to me in the last ten months.
I've never mentioned any names, and I don't intend to now; it's counter-productive, and won't change any of their behavior. Some of you may already know who these people are, having felt their sting on your own.
What I will say is I am undecided about my future here, and with the community, because this kind of behavior is petty, childish, and reprehensible.
I deserve better. We all do.
It looks great, but I got the colors backwards when doing the manual swaps. I am going to need to come up with a system to keep that from happening in the future.
I just got lab work done. Apparently I missed their notifications long enough that they sent me an actual letter about it. I don't even see it scheduled on my account for the Clinic's website bug I had one scheduled.
I just hope the result are good. It's for my A1C.
🙏🤞🍀
Might purchase a new fog machine. I really just need a new remote or timer unit for my brother's machine as I can't find his. But in looking at them I am tempted to buy a stronger unit.
A bubble fog machine also interest me. It would be cool for a witch's cauldron brewing effect.
I will need to do some maintenance on a few of my Halloween🎃 inflatables. Seems I have a few bulbs burnt out and one is out of place. They are not hard to fix. I just need to pull the bulbs to find out why kind I need to buy. A project for tomorrow.
