  • Thanks for the advice. I'll go back and do some more tower tests, but (and again, this could be a skill/understanding issue) I don't really understand how to get a print to change temp mid print, without using the touchscreen and staring at it waiting...

  • Right now I have bunch of settings saved that results in a pretty decent PLA print, but it takes ages. (Layer of .15, print speed 50-100, gyroid infill 15%. Bed 60* nozzle 210). And I tried to print a tube to put coins in and it's 5 hours. And the threads didn't come out great.

    Overhangs get me usually, but sometime later adhesion if I dare use the ultimate presets like "course", even if I adjust the temp.

    Also I tried updating utlimaker to the latest version, rather than the one it comes with, and then was a disaster that lead me down a rabbit hole to Orca.

    Which was another rabbit hole that my partner had to emotionally support me through as the equivalents of "PCLOADLETTER" would trash my prints on a whim. Usually 3/4 of the way through.

    I bought this printer to print dust collector fittings and adaptors for power tools (I lead a construction team and I'm pro-safety) and I can usually get a print strong enough for the job, if not pretty.

    But I'd like pretty..I'd like to be able to fine tune a print so it's sexy and strong and also didn't take 16 hours... Boaty takes 20 minutes and o Looks good every time I print so I just don't get why something not as complex and the same size takes over an hour and doesn't come out as clean.

  • So.. no coherent point. Thank you for clarifying.

    Anyone can earn my vote by:

    Prioritizing healthcare and social services (including education) Protecting basic human rights. Not being a shit-bag of a human nor tolerating them in government. Focusing on green economic growth.

    I don't base my votes off who can get me the most irrationally mad about issues that are invented or overblown. And while I have a whole list of complaints about the uselessness of the changes to gun laws here, the biggest one is how effective it is at mobilizing otherwise happily dissconnected voters into actually taking the time to go vote. It's like 8d chess where the Liberals are looking for a way to get the Conservative vote out and found the key....

  • Exactly. How dare we ...not...sell...OUR....Electricity! And how DARE we put tarriffs on things because the US put tarriffs on things first?!

    Isn't American known for its rugged individualism? They don't need Canada, why would they use our roads or dare inconvenience themselves crossing into/out of our border?!!

    This reminds me of the sov cit movement. Children with no understanding of the amount of effort and cooperation required for a functional society.

  • Do you have a coherent point to make or was that the attempt?

    Asking as an rpal holder who finds the new round of restrictions poorly written and ill-informed, but that isn't going to drive me to vote for an idiot like PP.

  • But it only supports them if their video is then also good. I don't like clickbait, because I don't want to be tricked into my monkey brain looking at something. I do want to see good videos.

    Just yesterday the algorithm found some guy doing tech videos. I watched a few of them and then sent a text to a friend who I thought would like it. He asked for a link so I pulled the guys channel up on my phone, and holy smokes, clickbait. If I hadn't seen the videos already I wouldn't have given that guy the time of day. But they are well thought out, interesting videos.

    I'm not here to correct the world's poor behaviour. I'm here to watch good videos. De-arrow does a good job of that, it's quite interesting to see YouTube on a computer without it vs what I'm used to now.

  • Gary and his Demons is wild, hard to say if it's up your alley.

    Cavendish you might enjoy the supernatural angle.

    Dark Matter? Is that on gem? It was filmed in Toronto and has a small following. (Just checked it is not...)

    Started Poker face and it's got some good vibes.

  • I was thinking... I know there's a script that can overwrite all your past posts, usually as a privacy thing or just a "fuck you" wipe to reddit for monitizing your years of input...

    I didn't do that when I left during the non-sence almost 2 years ago because I felt bad destroying that knowledge I left, but sometimes that's how things have to be...

    Wouldn't it be nice to wipe your entire 9 years of reddit posts with something fairly mundane but that would hit the threshold for this bullshit new rule?

    I'm taking submissions at this time.

  • I'm using Lemmy connect and I find it... Not great. It doesn't tell me when I have responses. I mean at all. I don't allow push notifications. But my inbox is empty so I look at "read messages" and there's tons there that I've never seen.

    Also when user post only a pic in their response, you can't upvote it without carefully touching their tiny name with your fat thumb to reveal the buttons. And when you touch a longer post you are reading to scroll you often close it? And the tree system/order of responses and what is collapsed vs not and where they uncollapse to is unpredictable and at the very least, very what I expect...

    I guess I should not use this one....

  • I agree with you when you say "it's who you are".

    Do you not see a situation where someone is born and believes themselves gay (the reasons why they would think this are numerous, almost as numerous as the countless reasons people think they are straight growing up) and then after living as a gay person they come to understand themselves better and recognise that they are actually fairly straight?

    I'm not saying that's what's going on here, it sounds very sad and basically someone just heading back to the closet to avoid shitty people and shitty society. But questioning someone who says they are straight, or gay or bi or enby or ace or whatever, is flawed. They may be lieing, they may be confused, hiding, virtue signalling. But you don't get to call them bi just because they said and behaved as if they were gay and now say and behaving as if they are not. Someone who used to have sex and now says they are ace isn't lying, or wrong or akchewally....

    I don't want this to come off as hostile, I get why you are asking. It's a complex topic and I might be wrong.

    I think I'm explaining myself alright, but I'm open to discussion
