Twitter Bird of Fail goes Winter style when searching for a name or location. Give me some love Twitter, 'nough with the fail whales and birds.
I figured that standing in the middle of the road near a Darwin sign might be an ironic enough place to cause an accident worthy of a Darwin Award. But nooooo... Not enough traffic. Maybe next time...
A dreadful photo of the Henry Bell monument in Helensburgh. Tried everything but the exposure defeated me.
Hai guys so I failed my 100 day protect. I'm pretty much so devastated. I have been so busy with year 12, doctor apts and I'm pretty sure I have insomnia. Plus my computer broke. Yes they're not good excuses but it's all I've got. I'm sorry.
The 50x70cm poster "Dr.Fail" is our participation for the SEEAR Exhibition 2013 themed "Superheroes".
The brief was to create a character and visualize him through a poster.
-
The poster exhibits the origins of Dr.Fail through three basic timelines. Two of them are centered around his personal life and events, that inspired him to build machines and weird inventions, most of which failed miserably. The third timeline is focused on his relationship with Megumi, the girl who unwillingly broke his heart and transformed him to a super villain.
-
The idea behind the poster is not to show the character itself, but instead allow the viewer, through an emotional association, to visualize the character based on similar experiences. The color theme and the choise of the data circle, was inspired by the character's japanese origin, which is enhanced by the use of english and japanese languages for the legend and text of the poster.

This is the fan duct that's on the side of a Rep2 extruder/print-head, and reaches underneath. When working, it does a good job of selectively cooling the correct areas without interfering with the actual printing.
But ... as in this photo, it sometimes breaks itself apart.
This part uses an ultra cheap (and AFAICS: guaranteed to eventually fail) plastic clip ... when that wears, or just springs open on a hot/cold/whatever day, it drops your fan-duct onto your print, which ruins the print (and can damage your printer).
I assume it's this way to fix/workaround some other problem, and might be a clever hack - but its defintely the wrong solution given it so easily falls off and breaks prints during normal operation! My fix? Sellotape or superglue the thing together. Try tape first - you need to leave a small gap between the hinging bits so it can slot into place on print-head, and tape lets you try it and see what I mean before you glue. But overall: IMHO a bad design.
Raft failure: at 30mm/s on generic RoboSavvy filament, trying to do a 2mm wide extrude from 0.4mm nozzle, the rep2 does this. At 10mm/s its fine. This is makerbot 2014 software (which has plenty of bad design flaws...)

This is not even remotely a mosquito; it's a plume moth. The stock photo was labeled as a mosquito from Haiti, per this tweet: twitter.com/ConservationOrg/status/695222220143091712
UGH. This is at least a bug, but NOT a bedbug. And bed bugs would not be likely to roam around in popcorn.

I heard from Facebook on Friday evening and was told they released the 'block' that was on my account. Have no idea why it was on there, and the suggestions I was given to prevent this from happening don't make sense as I had everything set up correctly:
This block seems to be tied to the two-step verification process and a glitch there, but interesting to note:
(1) I set up the two-step verification months ago and have not had any issues up until last Monday. It all started when I tried to enter my regular password and it failed.
(2) One of the password reset codes I tried on Monday actually *did* work as my account is now recognizing that new one, however, over the last 4 days it had not. Seems it allowed a password reset, but the account was still blocked and still kept issuing me reset codes, though none worked.
(3) Speaking of password reset codes, FB continued to send me reset codes (over 10 of them), however the system knew there was a block on my account. It should have sent me an email acknowledging this on Monday and instructed me to contact FB to clear it. Instead I kept trying every 24 hours (for 3 days) thinking it was just a fluke and the system needed to clear.
(4) I was trying to log into Facebook from both my MacBook and my iMac. Both were recognized devices in my profile already (along with three different browsers). There is no reason it should have failed in the first place.
(5) I did *not* have private browsing on. My web history on all browsers goes back weeks.
(6) I am now logged in, but I just tried to change my password again and it failed. A bit concerning if I can never change my password again.

So there I was trying to figure out how the Fuji Fotonex 1000ix worked and the flash fired, the camera whirred and I had 24 exposures left on the film. I'm impressed that the camera managed to focus on the plain white ceiling.
Sometimes FAILing is just the best thing for you.
That's it, just right in front of me: a picture of me FAILing to hit a goddamn orange on the fly. You can perfectly see how I'm NOT going to cut it and how I COMPLETELY got the wrong timing firing the flash. It should have fired almost a second later.
Why, you may be wondering, is this the best thing for me?
Because, we all know, the best way to learn is to FAIL.
Yep, I made a HUGE mistake: thinking that I could start the exposure with a remote, throw myself an orange at the right spot, perfectly cut it half on the fly with a kitchen knife, manually trigger the flash at the right moment and then stop the exposure... Alone. Yes, all by myself.
Next time, I'll be better having my brother to assist me.
At least, for safety's sake. I swung a f'ing Miracle Blade around my living room without someone ready to call 911.
