God save me.
I've been obsessing about these printers for quite a while. Some time late at night a few weeks ago, I gave in to my insanity and sent out an order to Prusa. Since then, it's been 24/7 youtube videos of 3d printing porn... well not printing porn... Okay, there's that Japanese girl that's always getting arrested for her 3d printed... Oh.. wrong group... Anyway
I was amazed that you guys were able to get me a kit in 4 days! Even with the new insane customs we now have (only spent 2 days in customs). When it arrived, I was thrilled, and even more excited to see that someone else in my tiny no where town had also ordered a Prusa. What pissed me off was the way the DHL driver bounced my printer off the other guys printer several times like Stephen Curry before he handed it to me. I almost screamed, but managed to maintain composure and told him to be a little nicer to the other guys printer.
1 week of stomach flu and a moment with Weird Al Yankovic and his orchestra later and I finally got to assembling it today. I went at it methodically, taking my time to read everyone's comments (well, except that one time and I learned my lesson). I found the part that broke as I assembled the extruder. Luckily, it looked like some extra body cover for the main extruder body. Hopefully, it's not involved in the cooling or anything. I have some PETG to print up backup parts when I get some torture tests under my belt.
I really wanted to tell you guys that your research on the gummy bears was severely flawed; but, as I adjusted the Pina sensor, I found was nibbling the last few as I admired my work. When I started, I thought I would have needed at least 2 more bags.
So, She is sitting on my counter. I'm too tired to try an initial anythings. I adjusted the Pina sensor... So.. Final questions before I pass out:
Should I just stick the memory card in and go to town? or should I flash it? I'll watch the Prusa Oops Files tomorrow; but that aside, is there anything you would recommend or wish you would have done before you turned your machine on for the first time?
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
[Edit] Sorry to cross-post. I just wanted to move this to the proper thread...
The thread title. And right now, I'm on Vyvanse 70mg.
It's borderline frustrating that I can finish candies and lollies (not chocolate, however) which consist almost entirely of simple carbohydrates, but I can't eat anything with protein or fat - unless it's in a liquid form (protein shakes, soups) which I would gulp down.
I'm forcing myself to eat and to get a full meal out of the way before my medication, but firstly, I want to be able to have my medication earlier in the day without having to first eat breakfast: I really want to try IF. Secondly, I'm trying to bulk by eating more low GI, complex carbohydrates rather than simple carbs, but grains taste like chalk in my mouth. No matter how much water I drink, my appetite is shot.
Please please help? I enjoy gyming, but I cannot grow if I struggle to meet even my maintenance macros.
Also, if you guys could tell me whether the advice in this video regarding regaining appetite is sound, please let me know.
#GUMMY BEAR COUNT: 210 Gummy Bears
After midnight on New Years Eve, I will tally up the gold I got. For each Gold Creddit I will eat 35 gummy bears. Make me never want to eat gummy bears again! I will be making a video soon after the new year starts to show me eating – and getting sick from – all of the gummy bears! So stay tuned for that!
IMPORTANT: I will now be eating 35 gummy bears for each gilding, now I really am going to hate gummy bears!
Edit: First gold creddit received from /u/CyanideandMadness, thanks goes out to you! Also, a HUGE thanks is due to /u/Google_Panda for offering to buy the gummy bears necessary for my endeavor, without you none of this would be possible!
Edit 2: Thanks to /u/dfj2xxx I will now be eating 70 gummy bears. Sounds like a lot, but I'm not scared!
Edit 3: An anonymous redditor has decided to make me hate gummy bears! The count is now up to 105 gummy bears!
Edit 4: Thanks to /u/reverend_green1 the gummy bear total is now at 140! I'm still not scared, I don't think we will get above 10 gildings, so I have nothing to worry about! :)
Edit 5: *Sung to the tune of 'Ghostbusters'* When you want some gold, for eatin' gummy bears. Who you gonna call? /r/freegold! I ain't 'fraid of no gilds! I ain't 'fraid of no gilds! – On a more serious note, I recieved another gold creddit from /u/outroversion bringing the total up to 175 gummy bears! He also suggested that I shout out to each user in my video, I might be doing that! :)

What if the contents go through an X-ray?
Hello /r/freegold,
If you remember me, I posted a request for Reddit Gold about three weeks ago. I said I would eat 35 gummy bears for each gilding I received. I am eating those gummy bears today, live! I will be doing a live stream later tonight on YouTube, and if you want to join me please come on over! The stream will be the whole process including my story, me counting the bears, thanking all the wonderful people who made this happen, and most importantly eating the bears! When I am about to start the stream I will update this post with a link to the stream. I am super excited to see how things go, wish me luck!
Sincerely,
AntisocialOatmeal
I am going to begin streaming soon! Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwnKE_JAUgJcX85eJ1NdgRQ/live
Hello everyone,
It has been a while since I have updated you guys about my gummy bear eating adventure. I am glad to announce that I will be eating the 210 gummy bears tonight on a live stream! I have homework to do this afternoon, but I will eat the gummy bears later tonight. Boy, am I excited! Just a heads up to everyone that I will be posting the streaming link later tonight so you can watch. If anyone has any suggestions of where to post so more people can watch, please let me know!
These following facts may or may not be true:
- it was made by a European company
2)the name of the company started with A.
Edit: I’m dead serious. These were the best gummy bears ever and I bought them at a department store, not a rave.
First of all, hi everyone! Sorry for the week or two of relative radio silence - the school year came to a hectic end and I was pretty much in the middle of nowhere between Friday and today in Yellowstone National Park. (It was awesome. There were buffalo and elk and hydrogen sulfide everywhere.)
We told my parents on Friday before they dropped us off at the airport, and told the husband's parents upon our arrival in Wyoming at his cousin's wedding (said cousin was the impetus for the trip; seeing geological badassery was just gravy). Everyone has been absolutely thrilled, and it is so exciting to finally have the secret out to a select few. We'll probably call siblings tonight and announce to a few friends who saw us through our infertility journey at dinner next week for my 30th birthday. Tears have been shed, and big smiles abounded. We cannot wait to break the news slowly but surely to everyone.
My first appointment at my regular OB since graduating from my RE was today, and everything looks just great. Here's the gummy bear, measuring right on schedule: http://imgur.com/pzf5ogi
My NT scan and sequential screening are scheduled for the end of the month (hooray!), and I get to stop my Crinone next week (double hooray!), and I may not even need lots of bloodwork if the RE gets their butts in gear and sends over my records posthaste (triple hooray? I don't even care about getting poked with needles anymore).
The only real downside is that I have the worst cough/cold right now. My dry cough began a few weeks into my pregnancy, but although it was annoying the RE didn't think it was anything problematic. The cough turned into a crazy amount of congestion in the dry mountain air, so I made an appointment with my GP for today, right after coming back, before my OB appointment. My flight home was absolutely miserable...to the point where at my GP appointment we discovered that the sinus pressure in my head combined with the pressurized air in the plane perforated my eardrum upon descent. UGH. No antibiotic eardrops for me right now, since the doc wants to be cautious, but I have a follow-up appointment next week and can take Robitussin and Claritin until I feel a little better. Blech. Don't shout into my right ear if you see me on the street. Thanks.
At least the gummy bear is a-OK. :)
Admins, I swear this question is 100% curiosity and nothing more
Saw these at Costco and decided to check out the ingredients to see how much sugar was in them. I was surprised to find that there's basically 1 or maybe even less than 1 net carb per serving, and that gives you 3g of fiber! No sugar at all, and the 1g of carbs that's NOT fiber is Xylitol. Woot!
