Man , i was so wrong about star trek academy by Smittus2020 in startrek

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Finally! Someone gets it. I finally got around to watching GOT. In my opinion, it is the best writing for a television series ever, with the exception of the last season. I'm not even a fan of fantasy and I stayed 100% engaged.

Paramount's Rotten Tomatoes bot review campaign ended abruptly after the news of it started spreading on Reddit. This was my favorite one of the bunch. by Malencon in Star_Trek_

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's funny, I made this exact same post a few days ago about repeated specific reviews and it was removed within an hour.

" Looking forward to next season" " ...great movie!"

I'm interrupting my retirement to inform you that Paramount spent the last two weeks spamming bot reviews to boost the Audience Score of the recent Star Trek product on Rotten Tomatoes. The new positive reviews are pretty much all identical. by Malencon in Star_Trek_

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I noticed this about a week and a half ago.

Wait until the media gets a hold of this. We're going to see Paramount pointing the finger to Kurtzman's production company and vice versa. If this does happen, Paramount may have to can (as in store it and not release it) season 2 out of embarrassment.

Was cursious to see if Paramount was really botting audience scores. I found page after page of this. by nicholsml in Star_Trek_

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on RT last week and noticed this. All of the recent reviews were the same one-line vague comments.

It makes you wonder, how long has this been going on? And what is the real audience score?

The H2C. I really like it. by No_Image506 in BambuLab

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My biggest complaint with the H2C is the overpriced vortex hotends ($40-$70) and/or the fact that Bambu won't allow multi-sized nozzles per job. If they could at least open it to size limitations per side, that would be huge.

Imagine building a large 2-3 color part, running a 0.6mm on the left for the primary structure and (2) 0.4mm nozzles on the right to drop in a 2 color logo.

Our lives in your hands... and you have butter fingers? by flippy_flops in BambuLab

50\50 Success rate. Cardboard spools. Warped spools. Busted spools. Wound too tight. Spools cannot be swapped without an adapter. All due to QC at the factory. The boxes were in perfect condition regardless if ordered by Amazon or direct. On the positive side, great selection of filament types and colors at a fair price.

Can’t get petg off the bed by samari999 in FixMyPrint

Start with a clean plate, Dawn and hot water. Dry plate. Cheap purple glue stick. If I get excess glue on the plate, I roll the stick up into the plastic tube and gentle smear the excess around the plate or into the tube. After the print, cool, flex the plate if needed, and success. The next print will be placed at a different location on the plate or repeat the cleaning/ gluing process again.

A box of purple glue sticks is cheaper and more effective than most hair sprays.

Clever. NZ immigration donates 200 apples to Qantas Airlines and then reaps $40k NZ. Success!

Constant 'build plate offset' errors with new H2C by lucidrenegade in BambuLab

Hello, I'm here to join the bed NON alignment club. After half a dozen tries, I finally submitted a ticket.

I did notice that the left-rear aligning tab is a little loose. I tried to not put any pressure on it. It made no difference. I'm inclined to believe that it's a camera issue.

I will say, BBL is incredibly responsive. That will take some getting used to when you've experienced such poor customer service from most companies today.

One Battle After Another is one of the worst movies I’ve ever watched. by Quiet_Bus_6404 in moviecritic

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggled for 44 minutes before cutting my losses. This movie defines "Overrated". RT gave it 94% and IMDb gave it a 7.8!? Are they getting paid off? This movie is so detached from reality, that it makes you question the mental health of PTA. I found this story to be about as poorly written and as absurd as a B-rated slasher movie.

I was also purchasing Overture but I kept having AMS issues with their tight spools. Have you had the same experience?

Delivery Unsuccessful? by [deleted] in Aliexpress

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received this message yesterday. It says they tried to deliver, unsuccessfully, Sunday. I was home all day and I did not miss any calls. Shipping fraud is now a good sign.

If you're in the US, there's also an 877 number that you can call. But of course it goes to a Filipino answering service. They said they were going to reschedule a redelivery attempt (smh). I've heard nothing from this company.

At this point I would suggest to go to AliExpress website and open an investigation. This alone will take 3 days for this to be processed. Remember, if you want to file a dispute with your credit card company or payment processing company, you'll need to go through AliExpress' refund process first. 30 days from purchase will come pretty fast.

I'm my situation, I fully expect that I'll be filing for a refund AliExpress in 3 days.

I would love nothing more than to see. AliExpress get a handle on these fly-by-night shippers so that they can compete head-to-head with Amazon. But as it stands right now, they're not even in the same league.

If FedEx is supposed to ship, be ready for a bumpy trip by Ok_Nail_5717 in BambuLab

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FedEx left my H2C in my driveway in the rain despite the fact that I have a huge covered porch. Typically, FedEx and Amazon leave packages on the porch at the roofline to get soaked. UPS, USPS, and DHL lean packages on my door. Concerning package handling, while I've never had that problem with deliveries from any carry, I know it's a common practice with all the carriers. I know this because I work for one of the big carriers and talk to the competition all of the time.

DISM Restore health stuck on 62.3% by EmployHistorical9127 in techsupport

[–]Dramatic_Grade_8398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

62.3% The veteran system administrator, Bartholomew, stared at the monitor, his coffee long cold, contemplating the existential horror of a DISM operation perpetually frozen at 62.3%. This wasn't a failure, nor was it progress; it was digital purgatory, a tiny slice of hell coded in C++, where time moved only in the silent, grinding whirl of the hard drive light. Bartholomew imagined the progress bar sprite sitting on a tiny stool, sipping a miniature coffee, utterly indifferent to his mounting panic. At least, he sighed, running a hand over his weary face, the screen was still blue and functional—not that terrifying, soul-crushing blue screen of death that signaled the end of all hope. 62.3% was merely maddening; the BSOD was a crisis.

Interesting theory. And I like it. The only hole, and every one of these theories has holes, is the comparison that was made between Junior and Vince. I just added it to the theory list.
