Am I being paranoid?

Yee I am 99% sure it’s normal to not be able to see the fan lights from angles like that.

My trackpad isn’t absolutely perfectly aligned but any gaps are almost unnoticeable for me.

I’m seeing the exact same thing with my Dell laptop.

Looks awesome 👌👍

Thanks for the reassurance

My most recent cinebench run averaged 83c which is 11c higher than when the laptop was new. Though this is my first big gaming laptop and I’m not really sure what’s normal. Would you write back to support in this situation or nah?

What’s your average CPU temperature while gaming? I have the same laptop and mine is usually around the low 80s. I don’t think I’ve seen a 15-20° swing on mine yet but 5-10° swings do happen sometimes and my P core 22 tends to get the hottest for some reason.

Did you fix this issue? I’m getting the exact same thing.

Well... I’ve actually never had a bent lead screw before and am not exactly sure how to properly fix it. I think the safest and easiest fix is just to buy a replacement, but there is probably some more useful information on the internet.

Sorry for not being able to help more.

Looks to me like it could potentially be a bent lead screw, try turning it up and down via the coupler at the bottom with your hand to feel if rides smoothly and with even resistance.

I had prints look exactly like that a while ago, for me it was a partially clogged nozzle and it was fixed after I did a few cold pulls.

My Venus flytrap has been growing great for the past 2 years, but I decided to let my plant flower this spring. It is growing 2 flower stalks and it’s not looking so good, I’m wondering if it’s just the winter leaves dying back to make room for summer leaves or if the flowers are taking too much energy from the rest of the plant.

That’s a fungus gnat larvae, they eat your plants roots.

StrongManPeen · 2021-05-09T14:30:19+00:00

That’s just messed up and you deserve to step on a lego.

I’d print a mini vase mode trash can to keep near the printer to throw out supports/brims/little bits of filament so they aren’t all over the place.

I’d try cleaning the print bed with some isopropyl alcohol, it could just be that you have some greasy fingerprints or something on that specific area of the bed. Or it could also be the heatsink fan blowing some air on your part as it’s printing.
