As cool as the engine tech is I can't wrap my head around the print process. Is it an iterative add/subtract, print followed by cutting? Is it sub assembly prints? Something else? The stress seems like an extreme boundary in print processes I'm familiar with. -

I've seen this style of interface a few years ago and it was extremely unreliable even after long training.

I ask because my initial reaction is handkerchiefs are old and gross, but after thinking about it I could be convinced it has some merit. I just don't really know enough. -

On a more serious note I should probably look into a password manager solution again as last time I looked (and was disappointed) was several years ago. I assume there have been enhancements to the usability and security since but if not I guess I'll just keep going with the good ol' piece of paper with a bunch of passwords, lol.

Here in the states the auto press repeats endlessly (as they are paid to do) that consumers want nothing but large cars.
I do want a large car, but I want a car. Not a CUV or SUV or truck or any of those things. I want a comfortable to drive car with a comfortable ride and yet they basically no longer exist in US market. I ended up getting a CUV a couple years ago since it was noticeably cheaper than other options and I am getting rid of it this year. Even if I have to buy an older used car it will be a huge improvement in the quality of the drive compared to the garbage CUVs.

There were definite concerns about the election process and a great deal of other concerns about general government corruption. I just doubt anything is likely to change for the average person.

At this point I don't know if I can go back to the way YouTube looks without it anymore.
The few times that a custom thumbnail is actually useful is a downside, but it's just so rare nowadays. When I started using the plugin I had a separate browser without it as a comparison and there were only 2 videos over the month that a custom thumbnail was truly beneficial to the videos I was watching. I'll probably keep an eye on it every once in awhile just in case, but so far very happy. -

Custodes is probably the best to start with since even though they are not simple there are fewer models that you need to keep track of rules for. It won't feel much like guard will, but it will teach the basics.
Also if you get some people to help or are also new there isn't a major issue with just jumping right into guard if you really wanted to.There are a couple discords that should be able to help if troubles:

As far as I know all the 40k stuff for TTS is community made shared through steam workshop so you just need a valid copy of TTS.
I don't know if anyone has made a specific 10th edition guide, but the general info for 9th should get things setup. I am going to be going to update my files for 10th this weekend, so hopefully nothing is crazy different.
Here is a guide from a bit ago: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GRIChoCiv2G0LBMiKemiBBiv2OQw1UfJJRAuc7ruBag/edit

Only if you actually are interested in the game, if not hopefully the new books are treating you well. Looking forward to Renegades: Harrowmaster, by Mike Brooks soon. -

I grabbed a cheap kit that had a portable compressor and airbrush together for like $70 and it's done a great job for well over a year now.
It also lets me enjoy the guilty pleasure every once in awhile of going wild on a shipping box like a kid with a rattle can. -

It's actually the first warhammer book I read.
https://www.blacklibrary.com/all-products/the-infinite-and-the-divine-ebook-2020.html
There is also a fantastic audio version on audible.
It's a story about two undying robots trying to one up each other by stealing a MacGuffin from each other. Civilizations rise and fall, planets undergo major changes while these two continue to get the better of the other like spy vs spy.
Sounds like an "apply directly to the forehead" scam with that kind of title.
It's long past time male birth control was available so hopefully this works.
Even if this one doesn't go anywhere it can help push demand for another solution to get funding.
