Tonight a good night’s sleep, followed by my flight to #Melbourne tomorrow afternoon.

In Australia, Halo 3 would now be considered “Legal” to buy and consume Alcohol.

Man I feel old.

In other news, #PAXAUS officially kicks off in less than Two Weeks, and I couldn’t be more excited to head back to #Melbourne

I’m treating myself to something other than a Shoebox like I’ve done in the past. cost me some serious Dollarydoos/Dollarbucks, but it’ll be worth it.

My manager told me they were going to try and use their Pool this weekend, and as a consequence, I provided them with Years of knowledge I got from my old man when he was a Pool Tech back in the day.

I think I put the fear of God into them as a result.

Anyways, Happy Friday!

Most of them may be duplicates, and I didn’t get everything on show, but sometimes it’s about quality over quantity.

Might even upload some footage from the #Hypercar class going down Brabham Straight at full tilt.

Missed out on last week due to #WorldTimeAttack being held last weekend at #SydneyMotorsportPark, along with #LibertyWalk attending for the first time.

Got some damn good photos with my iPhone 12 Pro Max on the day, so I’ll be sifting through those when I can this weekend.

Sweet #NectarOfTheGods this is well deserved after this week :)

AussieKrispy @aussiekrispy.bsky.social · Sep 8

Decided to take last Friday off to go to #WorldTimeAttack2025 at #SydneyMotorsportPark on a whim.

I'm glad I did for a number of reasons, but this is one of them;

Having a Friday drink for one of my colleagues whom was abruptly let go this afternoon.

I have no malice against him and vice versa to me, but I could tell that he was not happy for a while with what was being thrust upon him.

I hope he gets into a better headspace long term.

Been looking into #AnduinOS & #ZorinOS as replacements to Windows Eleven when Windows Ten reaches EOL in October.

May need to get a Test Machine to give them a go on. And I think I’ve found one that will give it some more life for the foreseeable future.

AussieKrispy @aussiekrispy.bsky.social · Aug 15

Come to Australia. I dare you.

AussieKrispy @aussiekrispy.bsky.social · Aug 15

I’m getting serious #Goldeneye #Cradle vibes from this. And I’m all for it.

Playing catch up at the Pub after missing out last week due to my Sister In-Law’s Wedding.

Makes the Beer taste so much better as a result :P

Had to hold off on a Multi-Colour Print on my #P1S due to bad underextrusion due to old filament a couple of weekends ago.

Got some fresh #BambuLab PLA yesterday so I hope to try again this weekend, and get some good results with the Carbon Fibre Build Plate too.

AussieKrispy @aussiekrispy.bsky.social · Aug 2

Before, during and after of my #BambuLabP1S setup this afternoon.

I lost the 4-Pin Cable for the Filament Buffer to the P1S and was searching for it for a while until I found it in the Bin.

Also got the Cloud Service set up and am doing my first Print with it now :)

It will be when I pick up my #BambuLab #P1S from my local Post Office tomorrow morning :)

AussieKrispy @aussiekrispy.bsky.social · Jul 30

Congrats on the win, well deserved :)

Been silent for a couple of days due to a Family member needing Hospitalisation. Thankfully they’re home now and better.

In other news, I’m awaiting delivery on some Bedside Draws from #Ikea, and my new Printer from #BambuLab is on its way and should be here this week :)

YAY!

AussieKrispy @aussiekrispy.bsky.social · Jul 18

This discovery was also purely accidental, as I stupidly didn’t see the Spool vs Refill option during the recent sale. And didn’t realise until they arrived and wondered why the Boxes were smaller than normal.

Although I am glad the RFID tags are on the refills in this case :P

AussieKrispy @aussiekrispy.bsky.social · Jul 18

Already procuring supplies for my forthcoming #BambuLab arrival in the near future, and I also discovered their reusable Filament Spools and Filament Refils.

In addition, their local shipping and delivery to my Office has me impressed to say the least.

I’ve got a few multi-colour filament projects lined up, but the first one will involve #Lego, #Formula1 and a build plate with a Carbon Fibre print.

I had been eying a specific deal for a while where the benefits and capabilities outweighed the cost to get my #PrusaMini up to the same standard.

Combined with the Anniversary Sale still going on, it won me over.

And the AMS2Pro is the Icing on the Cake for Filament Management too!

The trigger has been pulled.

Watch this space.

Just a few more days until I pull the trigger on a worthy purchase that I’ve been eying for quite some time.

But until then, the end of the First week of the new Financial Year is to be celebrated.
