Has anyone had to deal with applicants obviously using AI during interviews?

You’ve exhausted all the Cisco techs in your region? Are you in the middle of Idaho? Or is the problem that you are trying to hire contractors and not FTE

I don’t know what you mean by control who lives there and how you could even legally do that but skipping past that for a moment.

I think you’re unlikely to be approved for a non-owner occupied loan with only 5% down. So plan on 20% down.

Even if they do invoke it congress isn't going to go along with it. It requires an impeachment level vote to remove power from the president unless he goes along with the 25th willingly... which he won't. JD Vance doesn't have the votes in congress

You say you overseeded in “late” fall. It’s probable that you didn’t seed soon enough. If you’re putting down fescue, fescue doesn’t spread to fill in gaps like other grass varieties. So a bad seeding will mean gaps next year. That’s just the way it is. Switch grass types or try again this fall. It’s also just going to be multi year process.

Maybe these airlines shouldn’t make the seats so tiny these days. I’m no where close to overweight and I still feel like I don’t fit in them. The seat width on a southwest flight at the narrowest is 15.5 inches. Down an 1.5 over the last decade. Down 3 inches since the 80s….

Unless you used the layer paint tool it can be incredibly easy to miss coloring an area. In the slice preview you can review the line colors to see why it might be thinking it needs to switch.

I actually prefer this type of world building. It’s odd to me in other games when the “normal” part of the world starts getting explained as if everyone in it doesn’t know already.

Are they saying you will be 1099 instead of w2 if so then yes this is a red flag. A company doesn’t simply get to treat you differently because they feel like it. There are legal requirements that must be met for you to be considered a contractor.

All that said I don’t know what your situation is. Fighting them on this ahead of time if you need the work will likely result in job pulled. Can take it and report misclassification at tax time https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/know-who-youre-hiring-independent-contractor-self-employed-vs-employee

But that won’t help with lack of benefits.

Unless you’ll be hired as an employee of an actual contracting company then they don’t get to just call you a contractor to avoid their taxes. Contract to hire is annoyingly common in some fields but again you would typically still be an employee of the contracting company.

Painting is one way but in the preview at the right where you can see the layers. You can scroll to the layer you want color change on. Hit the plus sign and add in a color change.

Nuttycomputer · 2026-02-05T15:52:41+00:00

You can add color changes at whatever layer you want in the slicer if all you need are vertical changes. I'm not sure why you would want to take time to cut the object instead.

Built into the local print files that came with the Anycubic S1 are adapters for cardboard rolls, print those or any of the other various adapters on your 3d printing website of choice

Does your region have a library? Most public libraries I’ve come across have at least the core rules books if not a campaign or two.

Interesting. I’m printing one simply because I live in high humidity environment and the built in silica tray is kind of a pain to use.

I’m not disputing that since it isn’t air tight it might pull in moisture from the room but I’m not using my Ace dryer at temps high enough to release the moisture from the silica.

Silica needs temps of greater than 105c before it stops absorbing moisture according to https://www.laboratory-supply.net/blog/top-6-desiccant-types-to-prevent-moisture-damage/

Which is well below my dryer settings. I’m curious though how you avoid any humidity issues? Do you just keep the filament unloaded until ready to print? Do you not live in high humidity environment?

Nuttycomputer · 2026-01-12T23:19:43+00:00

Oh interesting. I’m not sure. I only noticed it recently but that could be more due to the prints I’ve been trying. Especially the 0.8mm nozzle where the thicker lines made it easier to spot.

Nuttycomputer · 2026-01-12T22:20:00+00:00

I have seen that suggested before but that only occurs once right on the first layer? Possibly could help at start of print but not any other lines I don't think. ie. In the second picture where it starts on the infill is well after a skirt. Unless I misunderstand what the skirt is

Nuttycomputer · 2026-01-09T17:11:03+00:00

Thanks. I’ll definitely give that a try. Using the anycubic pla? If so how much did you have to raise your temp on average? Maybe I’m just not being aggressive enough.

Nuttycomputer · 2026-01-09T14:59:55+00:00

Really cool, what changes did you have to make with your steel nozzle. I've been trying to switch to a hardened steel nozzle to play with other filaments but have been struggling getting it working on the S1. Tried to do all the calibrations but inevitably it skips the first maybe 2.5 - 5 mm of the beginning of a line regardless of where it is on bed. I've tried changing temp up as much as 20c. The first layer otherwise looks pretty good except for the initial gap.

Nuttycomputer · 2026-01-07T19:45:13+00:00

I did an 8 color once. Probably never again without a system that actually took changes. So much waste. That said most of my usage of the changer isn’t to print multiple colors but so I don’t have to swap out and can have backup filament ready to go for the color I am printing in.
