  • The stupid Republicans just committed political seppuku. It's going to be an all-blue midterms. Trump had better prepare for the impeachment proceedings.

  • Musk couldn't build a successful golden shower without government subsidies, that's for damn sure.

  • It's the Russian resistance's long game: in 10 years, there won't be enough young people left to send to die at the front, so the war will naturally peter out.

  • Why does fucking Trump has to speak about everything everywhere all the time? Can't poor Joe die without having a fascist monkey comment on his health?

  • Really?

    I mean kids know ice cream is bad for them, at some level. But arguing who pays tariffs is like arguing whether water is wet. That's what tariffs are, by definitions. Anybody who thinks China or whoever will pay tariffs in their place doesn't know what tariffs are.

    That's why it boggles the mind that Trump keeps - or at least kept - saying other countries would pay his tariffs and nobody ever corrected him: all it takes is opening a dictionary at TARIFF to know he's full of shit.

  • I wasn't aware there was an argument.

  • The voids comme from the arachne perimeter generator - since that's what the slicer uses in the letters, because they're too small to contain anything but perimeters. You can even see them in the slicer's rendition:

    There seems to be a way to eliminate then - in the slicer anyway - by increasing the perimeter transition threshold angle from 10° to 40°, but I haven't tried it yet:

    One-wall looks better anyway, so I'll try it again, without ironing this time.

  • Something tells me you'd have fun if you got yourself a printer and got into the hobby. Hint hint... 🙂

  • 0.4 mm.

    I mess around with one setting at a time, to find out what each of them does in isolation. At some point I will look into calibrating the rate of extrusion. But for now, I'm playing with simple options.

    Also, it's not art. This is a piece of equipment for the shop floor. It's already plenty good enough. I'm just curious how to make it better 🙂

  • It was a joke but... I guess it didn't land 🙂

  • Orange cats have lived among us, boldly wreaking havoc with a level of confident stupidity that inspires both affection and bewilderment.

    When I read "inspires affection" is when I realized this wasn't about Donald Trump.

  • I finally had time to look into this - in the slicer at least - and I think you're right: one wall should solve the issue. I can tell just by how the slicer arranges things. I turned on ironing too for the topmost layer. That should make it even better.

    I'll go to the office to start the print today. It takes about 5 hours - and 20 more minutes just for the ironing of that one surface 🙂 I'll let you know how it goes.

    Thanks for the suggestion!

  • This raises the question: why do you keep coming back? Do you enjoy being abused?

  • I did the practicum before the theory. It helped.

  • A white South African did that. Is anybody surprised?

  • I'll look into this. Thanks!

  • Arachne perimeter generator to Classic

    Yes I do use arachne. I did try to change it to classic when I was messing with my 3D-printed lens experiment, and while arachne wasn't perfect, it left fewer artifacts inside the "lens" than classic.

    I'll try to revisit classic for this one print.

    doing an ironing pass on your top layer may help conceal this from an aesthetic standpoint but won’t do anything for you structurally

    I'll try ironing, This one is purely an esthetic problem. The part is just a cover for a case that holds electronic bits inside.
