A few Colors and Packages (with a poll!)

[FBnil]

In the post it is quite decisive, and I appreciate the acknowledgement that they are merely (well informed and thought out) opinions.

just a small word pun, no harm intended. And yes, the text and idea was solid and rational. It was mend like "to be or not to be". I am, therefore I think; that type of stuff. (Kung fu, not Kung fu - Kung Fu Pandor^H^Ha)

Out of curiosity, did any of your parts spend much time in a pocket with coins and keys?

With Pandora parts... don't even try it... the paint gets removed. The scratch is permanent.

Yes, I know. Even with only tiny scratches (and a crack) on my Pandora, and some slight rub marks that are not all the way through the paint, I feel like I didn't take care of it properly. I never put it in a pocket with anything else, yet there are those scratches. Aluminum should work out much better than the paint, and I am quite happy that there won't be paint on the plastic this time around.

it's weird to be defended on the internet... by two opposing parties...

You are an idiot.



























[doublepost=1466379607,1466369462][/doublepost]My apologies to anyone that was offended by that. If you thought my previous post was sincere, you're the idiot I was really talking to.

To be honest: No

But some parts are used on a little lathe and other were used on my multicopter.

that's more like it.

 

[rygD]

Glad I could deliver on your expectations of people on the internet.

I think a better reply (pun on words) would be: "You stay out of it!". It is not as derogatory, thus does not need an apology/explanation.
This alternate phrase does not provoke an automatic dismissal of the post by not shutting down the part of the brain that tries to make sense of the wording.

Of couse the comeback of ible "That's more like it" is golden. I was eating watermelon when I started laughing and that did not go well... had to clean it up.
Kudo' s for that impeccable delivery.
[doublepost=1466449888,1466449746][/doublepost]so uhmm.. we are still waiting for picture of Pyra's in different colours, right?

What, it's coming in colours? Ah yes, I think I remember, when I was younger, there was an announcement about samples to be shown. That were the times, when everything was vibrant and exciting - the good old days.

It turns out the apology was not what was being asked for in a PM. I was being alerted to the low quality of the humor, with ideas on how to make it better. I strive for the worst, but thanks for all the suggestions. (Btw, you may have missed that the apology was an additional insult.)

Also, it isn't my problem if people decide to let their brains shut down. That seems to be how many people go through life already.

Edit: Everyone that thinks they could have done it better, or offering suggestions, there is nothing preventing you from showing how to do it right. This is the internet, and a dog pile seems like it is warranted here.

I figure we will get pictures during or after the Greece trip. Until then it seems like dark grey is the top choice.

using BMBF, or bare minimum brain functionality for short, is typically the way to go.

 

[comradekingu]

Well my mind is blown, i hope you are all unhappy!

 

[rygD]

Tis an ill wind that blows no minds.

 

[zoranc]

Are you in Greece at that time? I'm there Monday 27 / 28, I should have some time Monday 27th in the evening (we're in Thessaloniki)

I'd also like to join the meetup on Monday evening if possible. I'd drive there from Sofia, Bulgaria - just changed my plane ticket in order to be able to do it.

WOW! That's what I call "passion."

 

[Tinker]

I prefer the smaller box, a darker or more a matte finish on the purple would be nice.

 

[EdenR]

Please create a green box! Without plastic or magnetic parts. I love my planet Earth! ;-)

 

[elvissteinjr]

Without plastics or magnets, huh? Hope you don't expect a Pyra in it either.

Now, if E.D. was kidnapped... and a ransom note posted here on the forums... how much would that be worth, huh?

to be honest, it IS an honor to spend some time with E.D. in a relaxed setting (in a restaurant, near a beach, a bit of sun) and ask questions first hand... maybe get invited to the factory, you know, first hand BE there...

1. Without exaggeration ED is amazing person. Just a thought of Pandora saga with Crag, PCB producer in USA, undervalued price of Pandora, and he managed it all so well - it leaves me speechless, it is surreal. So it would be inspiring to meet ED for sure. At the museum night in Leipzig I couldn't make it, so...

2. I love my Pandoras, and I'm total fan of Pyra and would love to try it myself. Actually I did even crazier things to attend the 8-bit computer gathering in Bulgaria last year, but that's another story.

3. It is a good excuse to make a mini vacation in Greece. I know a friend who will probably join me, and driving direction sea isn't so bad in my experience.
