Well, alas, the mini hot dogs turned out weird and non-functional

But, i did manage to print out this full-sized hot dog sabre - an elegant weapon for a more civilized age #3dprinting

@kf well, they should have flicked out into little pointer batons but i guess they're just hot dogs

Whenever I get on a tear around #3dprinting weird crap, I wish we had a Little Free Library in front of the house in which to give them away. But that might be a rainy day project this fall / winter

@emily oh dang this looks cool as heck

@AG7GM Yeah, makes sense but also a pleasant surprise!

Also I just realized that Minnaloushe was in the hot dog sabre picture, and he was NOT impressed by the swoopy noise the thing made when deploying as the layer lines scraped against each other

@kf I saw the second two original trilogy star wars movies in the theater, and I feel like since then the only things I've liked have been side stories like Solo, Rogue One, and Andor. Also Mandalorian until they CGI'd luke skywalker into it

If the universe is a simulation, then I swear the GMs are working hard to get me to buy one of these Xteink mini ebook readers.

Seems like a full-court press on tiktok, half the YouTube channels i watch have reviewed it, and now amazon is pushing it at me.

Am I in a coma? Is this how they're trying to get messages to me?

@dreid that's the one!

I will say I have a Kindle (my 3rd) and must have read 10s of thousands of pages with it. So, a hackable tiny eink reader is suspiciously well-targeted at my face. 🤨
