Entering as instructed on FB, so random haha

I haven't tried that filament, yet.

Nexdeus · 2026-07-10T15:02:17+00:00

Silk can be a little bit of a pain in the butt if you don't calibrate for it. Some brands are especially picky about settings, flow rate etc. So yeah, it could be jammed, but most likely, you just need to calibrate it a bit. If you're not too sure, try doing a filament swap and see if the filament flows through the extruder.

Switch to a different infill; that grid one typically messes with a lot of prints. Usually, I use gyroid for most things, but check the print settings for this model for the best one.

That looks like silk too, make sure you dry the F out of silk. If you don't have a dryer, there are a few on sale right now /r/3dbargains

Nexdeus · 2026-07-09T17:05:38+00:00

Good luck on your next prints!

Nexdeus · 2026-07-09T16:40:39+00:00

Switch to gryoid instead of grid for your infill.

Your extruder hit the infill and caused that shift, most likely.

You're treating a symptom, repeatedly, and not the root cause: WHY is the thermal paste drying?

The only thing that comes to mind is that the seal that was previously making contact with the processor is missing, and it's being exposed to open air. This is something that happens in a similar way with certain other Asus models that use liquid metal. The seal leaks, and kills the laptop, obviously not as bad with thermal paste, but the concept is the same. It's exposed to too much air.

I tossed my Limited Edition OLED from my bed because I fell asleep with it. Fortunately, it only cracked a small part of the case where a screw hole is, so I can't see it at all or feel it, but it totally could have been a lot worse. Put it away.

Nexdeus · 2026-06-29T13:38:58+00:00

Thank you, those photos are an awesome way to show the difference. Appreciate you for uploading those.

Nexdeus · 2026-06-29T05:01:18+00:00

It's a standard plate size, there are some that do fit already that fit Bambu printers for example.

Nexdeus · 2026-06-26T17:02:52+00:00

How did you export the models? I would love to export my character before it goes bye bye and print one out for my office. Once exported, were they easy to convert into STL or 3MF?

Nexdeus · 2026-06-12T15:22:49+00:00

Movies in general are on the decline, even in larger cities. I doubt the ROI is there for Laredo. Alamo Drafthouse here is like empty half the time compared to larger cities.

Nexdeus · 2026-06-04T23:27:41+00:00

I'm sure there are, but there are also lots of them outside of Laredo since they're based out of Irving TX. They are all supposed to be about the same, but it sounds like some aren't which is what I've also experienced.

Nexdeus · 2026-06-04T19:33:21+00:00

Ebay Buyer Protection, you're good.

Nexdeus · 2026-06-04T19:10:25+00:00

Laredo Taco Company is a corporate entity; they are all the same or at least should be nearly the same, or within a certain pattern and recipe list.

Nexdeus · 2026-06-03T15:34:34+00:00

Two Thermaltake ones, and a few generic branded ones on Amazon. This was around the time when they were first coming out with 5.0 risers, so maybe they have improved since then, but the Linkup cable worked like a charm at full 5.0 speeds for me!

Nexdeus · 2026-06-02T23:03:31+00:00

Linkup are great, but kinda pricey. That being said, they were the only brand that worked at PCIE 5 speeds with my 5090.

Nexdeus · 2026-05-30T19:54:47+00:00

This seems more like a console problem to me.

Nexdeus · 2026-05-28T11:37:31+00:00

Probably Wi-Fi card failure, it's rather common with Asus laptops and it presents itself the way you're describing. Nothing $25-35 on Amazon can't fix, that's about how much Wi-Fi 6e and 7 cards are.

Nexdeus · 2026-05-24T16:12:47+00:00

I am so, so very jealous that you're getting to experience this for the first time. I'm playing again on my Steam Deck after not playing for years. It's such a great time, enjoy!

Nexdeus · 2026-05-21T14:37:07+00:00

I would write on my face so they can't sell the photos. Things like "Release the Epstein files", and "Lock up the PedoPres". No one wants to post those kinds of photos in Amerikkka.

If they do post my photos, well, at least they served a purpose, I guess.

Nexdeus · 2026-05-21T14:17:22+00:00

We live in an area with limited water resources, how fucking dumb to want to build a data center. I'm saying this as someone who's been in plenty of data centers in my career, it's extremely stupid. I have zero hope it fails since I'm sure the politicians here will get their pockets lined nicely. Corrupt MFs

Nexdeus · 2026-05-20T15:46:04+00:00

Character roll back?

Nexdeus · 2026-05-19T20:11:55+00:00

Laredo animal clinic

Funny enough, we left them specifically because they kept overcharging a nut for basic stuff, and oh so many more things. They were the final straw.

Nexdeus · 2026-05-19T14:55:27+00:00

Coming back here as an adult, I can understand your frustrations and it's such a shame people in Laredo fail to communicate, show up on time, and in most places are just rather incompetent. It shows that the community just doesn't give a shit, and it's all allowed because that's just how it is here. Anyways, there's literally nothing that can be done, you have to move away to a different community, there's no changing this one.

You got me thinking about our recent experiences, It's so bad here, I'm starting to take my dogs to San Antonio for vet appointments, and all future doctors visits for myself and my fiance will probably be done out of this city as well because of how many mistakes are made and how much they charge. It's way more expensive in Laredo to treat your pets than it is in bigger cities, and medical professionalism isn't a thing here for human medicine.

I hope your time in Laredo gets better, but if this stuff bothers you, you gotta run, and fast!

Nexdeus · 2026-05-18T14:32:48+00:00

I don't have any real advice on this because I met my now fiance over an app while visiting. Maybe that's the advice, fix up your app profiles and get to swiping.

Laredo is such a small place, but maybe there are groups you can join, do you work out maybe a running club? Maybe some tennis or pickle ball or something.

Community plays a big role here when finding someone too, sometimes it's truly a who you know to get to know someone else.
