			<description><![CDATA[My library of Flac-format files for my Tangara player is pretty giant, mostly from bandcamp. I've discovered that artists aren't that careful when tagging their own music, so I need to update a lot of the basic tags to make my library manageable on my device. Other than going through with mp3tag and manually updating, are there any approaches that will save me a thousand hours of clicking and copy/pasting? <br />
<br />
I know beets can use the bandcamp plugin but since the info isn't consistently usable on the source files I'm not sure that would make things better.<br />
<br />
My files are well organized by Artist Name/Artist Name-Album Title/artist - album title - NN song title.flac.<br />
<br />
Thanks!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[MJF is short for MultiJet Fusion. It's HP brand of industrial 3D printer. It works with PA11 as a very very fine powder. Like get into your lung tiny. It deposit a thin layer, like a sheet of papee, spray it with black ink or something a lot like it, blast it with UV so the black area fuse with the layer under, finally start again with the next layer. Very cool stuff.<br />
<br />
T65 is the technical name of the X-wings in star wars used by the rebellion in the battle of yavin. They have 4 independant reactor. Poe Damron fly a T70 which have 2 pair of reactor that each form one big cylinder when closed.<br />

I used to work in a 3D printing shop and as an employee I had a nice reduction that I used, among other things, to print that T65 in HP's MJF. Lego minifig for scale. The thing is unprocessed, the "moucheté" stone gray color is a byproduct of how the printer work.<br />

It did fall once and the end of the nose being super thin, a corner broke. I trimmed the other corner with a nail clipper to make it look intentional. If we squint out eyes a bit, we can see where it's cut that the inside is black.<br />
<br />
I love how that blown up tiny low poly model looks. Also yes, the stand is 100% repurposed trash. The dome is from a fast food ice cream, the green stick is a straw with part of a similar straw stuck inside for strength, inside the dome is packing foam probably from a GPU and hot glue which was hot enough to melt the foam if I remember correctly. I had another straw filled with hot glue but it stuck at both end leaving the middle empty and it couldn't stand the weight]]></description>
