Prefacing this, I have no idea, can't find any information either, I'm just speculating for what it's worth.
.What's kinda interesting is someone posted an identical one to the prusa forums like 2 years ago, no responses unfortunately.

I'm willing to guess it's data, I'd wondered if it was unique per user but if you both have encountered it... don't think that's the case. I'm going to assume it's sending a blob, vaguely reminds me of image thumbnails in gcode, but those are clear that's what they are, maybe it's some executable code that changes printer parameters or how the subsequent gcode is processed by the controller to support the HyperFFF mode.

Don't love it personally, but I'm willing to assume they're doing this way to obfuscate what's happening because its proprietary rather than anything malicious. I don't really have the tools or knowledge to really try to examine it further however, hopefully someone with that skillset is interested enough.

Edit: is this a cloud first printer? Also totally possible it's just telling the printer to download something remotely to support that HyperFFF mode, again, can't really tell, could be worth seeing what's happening network wise.

Canada’s National Observer asked the NDP for comment on the situation and later that day posed the question to NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh in a virtual press conference on April 22.

Singh did not directly respond to Canada’s National Observer’s question, nor its follow-up question about the Green Party’s complaint.

Instead he said many strategic voting websites regularly promote the Liberal Party and that “if you want to stop Conservatives, vote New Democrat. If you also want someone that's going to … stop liberals like Mark Carney from cutting the things that you need, vote New Democrat.”

An hour later, an NDP spokesperson contacted Canada’s National Observer but did not offer a statement. Instead, they sent information “on background” — indicating it shouldn’t be attributed to the NDP — that pointed out the federal Green Party was sanctioned by Elections Canada in 2016, and said “that website isn’t ours.”

Gotta say I'm unhappy that I'm disappointed in the Federal NDP again, the whataboutism around the green party being sanctioned almost a decade ago is maybe tangentially relevant, but that feels they're more trying to cast doubt on the green's poll. Your candidate linked to the website, it doesn't matter if it's yours, its part of your party's official communication. I don't love that Singh (or any politician for that matter but I align closest historically with the NDP so I'll be critical) seemingly didn't address the questions during the press conference either.

There's something about the current NDP priorities I don't love, while I totally acknowledge their work on pharmacare, ban on scab labour and dental (and understand why they tore up the supply & confidence agreement over back to work), I started being disappointed back when they held back 100% of campaign rebates, I've personally noticed less and less riding level activity from then as well. I don't love that they're supporting S-210, I know a bunch of people who started listening to the NDP specifically because they were pretty adamant in their support for privacy. It's a lot of small things but yeah, they add up.

I'm just happy to still be considered young lol.

My circle, most want the Feds to do more with what they can, but largely place blame on provinces & municipalities for housing & rent, Ontario removed rent controls for units built after 2018 when the pcpo formed government as one example. The lower levels of government have a larger impact on your day to day and yet have the lowest engagement, my (ndp) MPP even sent out a "this level of government is responsible for this" magnet with numbers and departments of it to (I think) help address that.

Yeah that's my understanding too.

I used to get ones from the Tories a few years back, looks only (ignoring content) this is somehow tamer, those looked like Peter Popov mailers complete with the random fake pencil scrawls in the margins, highlighting and blue ink underlining.

Trying to be vague as heck in the spoilers, totally get it! Don't think there's anything there that's super spoilery (I hope!) But definitely play it safe.

Fingers crossed next run, as for the item there's a

Yeah, I've never had

I did enjoy it and the underlying story kept me going, gotta say after playing it with my partner for a while, the rogue like elements started getting a little grating, especially if you're looking for extremely specific rooms and get crap RNG (took like 12 days to get a

I know there are

::: spoiler Tap for spoiler ways to manipulate it or influence like the chess puzzle, but my drafts suuuuuucked, just weight rooms and archives constantly or dead ends as my choice. Probably not running an optimal strategy but was kinda hard to do when I had no other options. Would get screwed over constantly trying to power the lab too. :::
Got tedious/frustrating at times but did overall enjoy it.

This isn't even borrowed from the yanks, look back at shit the Tories said during the Harper years, it's literally exactly the same rhetoric, there's a clip on CBC from years ago with Pierre talking about the Omar Khadr supreme court ruling and dude was saying shit like "this is a matter for the democratically elected government, not the courts".

While I get the overlap, we shouldn't downplay our own shit, we've been perfectly capable of having a christofacist party on our own, and exporting it globally (Gaven McInnes - Canadian, worked with the rebel, Jordan Peterson, Harper has been involved with the IDU, Preston Manning's takeover of the Conservatives was cited as an inspiration for Nigel Farage)

Straight arch works great with nvidia cards, gaming was my last hitch too, only thing I really miss is HDR in games, but it's a tradeoff I'm willing to have (had bad times with gamescope and nvidia, I'm content to leave it alone for now, things change rapidly anyhow)

My tepid take, every poll should report with error bars, would help somewhat, like I know they report moe but still, visual would be best to convey that quickly.

Doesn't help that in my experience, people just don't have a great grasp on statistics, was a common complaint of a statistician friend I worked with for years. As to why, stats specific courses weren't required when I went to highschool, I hope that's changed.

Says a lot that it can run pretty much maintenance free for a year and a half! I only had issues with my mk3s doing daily enclosed abs prints in the summer, the original petg softened and it ended up killing the idler end of the x axis (idler mount deformed suddenly under tension after like... 1-2 months of that). They may not be the fastest or fanciest but they're easy to service and in my experience pretty reliable, I repacked the linear bearings after a year or so out of precaution when I did a full rebuild, but I don't expect needing to do that for a long time.

Here's another prusa article for infill patterns, the prusa knowledge base is really decent and applicable to a variety of printers, I use my voron a lot but still refer to it.

Grid infill is crossing, get a decent blob or buildup and you could have nozzle collision, I personally like gyroid but it is slower.

Had a similar failure on the mk3s, what does the belt tension test return? Stealth mode may help or be the cause, anecdotally I've seen mention of motor temps, the old rambo board running stock firmware they got toasty when printing in the enclosure in the summer, stealth helped me limp it along until I did a board swap and changed to klipper. I don't know if this is an issue with the mk4 as that's not using the older Rambo based boards, but something to consider as well, had it happen even after I did the first abs rebuild.

Edit: too tight can also cause issues, not necessarily skipping but having it trigger the virtual endstop, prusa has an article for troubleshooting layer shifting. Also probably with checking both axis to ensure they're smooth and consistent across travel, seen an over tight x carriage back cause too much resistance and have false triggers.

I've had fruit flies before that must have come in on some produce, have to be on it to clear them, leave out any fruit/veg scraps and they come out (out being tossed in the trash/green bin too, anything open air). Drop of dish soap, water and vinegar in a high walled glass or jar is the way to do it, I used balsamic but malt or wine vinegar works too, just leave that out and it'll do its job.

My current place we jokingly call the spider house, have a bunch of house spiders around (cats love them) and a few orb-weavers, garden and wolf spiders outside, pretty much anything native isn't a threat to humans or cats, they do a great job of taking out any pests, rarely see flies inside these days. Spiders and centipedes I'll leave alone, they're beneficial to have around.

I'll third it, I used Solidworks before, freecad was fairly easy to adapt to before the 1.0 release, workflow is even nicer now, trying to convince my dad to move to freecad over paying for a sw subscription now that he's retired.

I've seen mention that stuff like the odbc connection manager have parts dating back to 3.1

Yeah, I've got comments mirroring that, Harper should be to the Tories what Bob Rae is to the ONDP. Probably sticks out to me because I was just old enough to start voting during those years, that wasn't that long ago though, like I know memories are short in politics but I'd not be running with a Harper cabinet minister if I were them.

I'm not sure how bambu studio does it (use prusa/superslicer) but chiming in because I was trying to figure this out last year doing a large ish batch of keychains for a friend and was fighting a bit with it, probably is a way of doing it all in freecad but the image was my biggest issue.

I ended up doing things in blender to subtract the image and the slicer itself, did a text object, positioned it where I wanted, merged the objects and marked the text as a negative volume (think that's the term, might be subtract) so it was subtracted when I sliced it, might help in your case?

I kinda want it to be both hard and costly to invoke, needs to be an absolute last case, like have it trigger an election so that it has to be voted on by the next government, or have it trigger a referendum that requires a super majority of eligible voters to pass (nonvoters count as no), and if it does succeed it terminates when parliament dissolves, that's kinda inline though with the 5 year renewal periods.

I was wondering if it was some sort of alignment/clamp for something like pipes or rods, or maybe some sort of bushing/bearing holders (think linear rods). Your tuning looks great btw, look pretty nice even in the worst case lighting conditions, adhesion not an issue doing this way? My dad asked me to print some stuff he designed for his beekeeping tools, has a bearing surface that's awkward to print accurately, I'm probably going to revisit that with this as inspiration, other than the helper ears I see on the build plate anything else you did?

To ask questions, for the application does dimensional accuracy actually matter? AFAIK rebar isn't exactly the tightest wrt tolerances (I know flat products, not long products, but knowing what hotroll coils look like I'm assuming it's similar), could probably have gotten away with a different orientation and could probably have avoided supports (I find arches print nicely). Having said that though, thinking strength might be another reason to print the way you did, face down and you have shear & torsion in between layers, thinking that's still a concern if you printed it standing, but yeah, just thoughts.

Edit: also spy kapton tape, did you find the bubble insulation made much of a difference? I'm putting what's basically heat barrier fabric on the interior as a first try, I grabbed some rock wool and bubble insulation but it's thick enough that I'm mildly concerned with it interfering with the gantry, having everything off for some refurb and wow I forgot just how close everything is, they really didn't waste space eh?

Softening and that, maybe? But it really depends on the filament brand too, as far as I'm aware, acetone doesn't readily dissolve in acetone which is what's meant by not doing much

Petg is pretty resistant, why PETs used for bottles.

Personal experience cleaning up clogged nozzles by immersing them, yeah acetone barely touched the petg
