    3D Printing

    Holy shit he was my drafting professor. How do you guys remember something so far back? I think I learned Solidworks at my engineering side job, which worked with NASTRAN finite element modeling software. 3D was just coming into vogue and I remember struggling to draw with it.
  2. This thread moves with breathtaking speed. There’s no way to keep up. Using terms like Fascism and Fascist is a waste of breath. Trump voters are too dumb to know what that means. They have no idea what you are referencing.
  3. I laughed my ass off when the detective said some to the effect, “I get 2,500 new suspects per day and most of them are Ted Cruz. “
  4. I’ve projected the winners based on this thread. Kamela and Colin win Texas with 94% of the vote.
  5. I’ve said it many times. There are only 3 types of Trump supporters: 1) wealthy folks that will do anything to get more money, like Elon; 2) completely uninformed people who fell for all the propaganda, or just don’t pay attention, and that includes conservatives, religious right Christians who are basically hypocrites, and others who think he’s good for them when he’s just a crook, traitor, grifter, convict, etc; and 3) racists. He suddenly popped up with #3 to go with #2. It’s gotten to the point that given that, it’s become very difficult to show these people patience and niceness. After all, they are supporting a candidate who preaches hate and lies every time he opens his mouth and his followers now demonstrate the same behavior. At some point you have to ask the question, “why treat them with respect when they don’t practice it or earn it?” People accepting this behavior is what will destroy this country.
  6. Holy shit. I thought he was just an idiot who has been fooled by propaganda. It turns out he’s a full throttle racist piece of shit. Who doesn’t even know he’s a racist pos. He’s going on my ignore list, of which there is only one person. Why any of you would want to spend one more second debating a racist is beyond me.
  7. I would guess that it wasn’t confidence, but instead a change in safety coverage to cover the swing passes, finally leaving the downfield more open. Which brings up a bigger issue than Quinn, imo. Sark’s offense uses motion, misdirection, and check downs to deal with opposing defenses. When you now have the talent Texas has on offense, I’m concerned they can’t just line up and bludgeon defenses. Or, like the old Lincoln Riley offenses at OU, just run a passing offense that is difficult to stop when playing outmanned teams. It’s like Sark has gotten too cute with his schemes and has forgotten about implementing good old San Francisco 49rs or Baltimore Ravens tough running offense. They can’t consistently run the ball without misdirection. With the talent they have in the line, they should be able to do that against everyone but Georgia and maybe A&M.
  8. As I said earlier, Quinn was way better than the previous week. He was 18/19 at one point. Fans on here are taking for granted his special ability to often deliver a good ball to the right receiver. He even went downfield a few times. The OL protection was really bad at times, and defenses are sitting back to take away the downfield throws. However, Quinn is definitely not playing at an elite level. He gets flustered by the rush, still doesn’t have the right pocket maneuverability, and still should be able to deliver more balls downfield despite the coverage. He definitely is mentally tentative. He gets that way every year, right after an injury. It’s weird. It’s a tough call for the staff. Arch was a bit shaky too, but offset that with his legs. None of us know if Arch can deliver a good ball to the right receiver as often as Quinn does. If they can somehow get breathing room in the Florida game they really need to get Arch some series. That will tell the staff whether he can do better.
  9. Quinn had a decent game but looked way worse because of a terrible OL that left him vulnerable to sacks. His two interceptions were a combination of bad luck combined with a lack of pocket movement around the rush. So he’s somewhat responsible for those but not fully. He wasn’t as bad as this thread is saying. He was horrible a week ago for sure. Our OL is suddenly garbage.
  10. I am not a conspiracy theorist but there is zero doubt in my mind that the officiating crew absolutely was going to make sure the penalties were going to be called heavily in favor of Vanderbilt. They wanted to make sure it didn’t look like Texas was getting advantageous calls after last week. Turning over that call last week was historic. It was the right decision but still unprecedented.
  11. I’m shocked at how bad our OL is. It’s turned to garbage. I have no idea what’s going on.
  12. I know it hurts for you to learn you’re dumb when you think you’re intelligent. But the best thing you can do now is use your wonderful critical thinking skills and examine where you get your information and try to understand how you’ve been fooled into being a useful idiot for grifters, liars, criminals, and power hungry politicians. You’re in this thread. That means you care. Now do something about your ignorance.
  13. Yes I did. Absolutely. And that’s why I have become extremely knowledgeable over the last 14 years about the real facts behind hundreds of real issues, relying on objective, credible information sources to be well informed. And thru reviewing all of the biased, propaganda sources that are spreading disinformation. I’ve spent upwards of 14 years researching disinformation. I also investigated launching a tech company building software for the internet to identify disinformation. I’m familiar with many of the companies and technologies being used. I’ve been paying attention to this issue for a very long time. So yup. What have you done?
  14. Just as you were told in the other thread, verbatim: As a former often Republican voter, it is important for you to understand that you’ve become of victim of extensive disinformation campaigns that have resulted in you having a very seriously distorted view of the reality of the Republican Party, and Trump in particular. Educated and informed people all around you talk about you behind your back about your misinformed views. I pray you are able to pull yourself away from their mind games to finally recognize facts and truth again one day. Because going thru your whole life stupid would really suck for you.
  15. What? His int was tipped at the line and that sack was straight up the middle. He’s played pretty well so far but the OL is vomiting all over the field.
  16. What the fuck? Is there no instant replay on the sec network? Buncha rubes.

  18. Very interested to see if Barron plays some safety. If he does, and plays well, that bodes well for the rest of the year given all the injuries at safety. And it would help his draft stock as well.
  19. When I see how well Ohio State recruits every year at many positions I always think they will walk thru the B1G. But CTJ pointed out many times that they have some positions where they always recruit poorly and that comes back to bite them every year.
  20. You people have my head spinning. The level of confidence here on a Harris win is very exciting given the public media stories and polls. But, I recall eight years ago and this group was also highly confident. So, do we have that situation again? I can’t remember the general tone four years ago, but I think there was a genuine lack of clarity one way or the other? Can’t remember.
  21. While Ohio St may not be elite, they still have a lot of talent and this shows Matt Rhule can coach. He has turned Nebraska around fast.
  22. Rogan is yet another reminder that being fortunate to make a ton of money has very little to do with talent or how good of a person you are.
  23. Just tell Ohio St recruits they are headed to the 8/9th sadness city in the United States. https://www.thezebra.com/resources/research/saddest-cities-in-the-us/?channelid=gty621&subid=newsletter&subid2=11496480&utm_source=thezebra&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=es-10-26-2024-newsletter-october-saddestcities&channelname=internalemail
