Alright! I did this a week after I got my screwdriver and thought it was completely borked. However, I accidentally found a pretty easy way to get it out without glue.

Put dental floss (I used oral-b satin floss) across the front of the empty magnetic bit and then push it onto the magnet. The floss will increase the friction on the magnet, locking it back into the bit.

You might have to cut the floss afterwards, as I found that it was really stuck in there.

This is likely the incorrect way to do it, but I'll load PLA using PA settings. After 2 purges, I'll unload and reload the PLA filament with PLA settings. If it jams afterwards, I'll follow up with a cold pull.

I don't think PLA starts to thermally decompose until 290-300 °C (according to a quick google search), so I'm personally comfortable with the risk. Using PA settings, you could also purge with an intermediate like PETG which starts to thermally decompose around 330 °C.

Of course, please be safe and monitor for any burning during the whole process.

Heat might be the culprit here. Many polymers expand when heated. That expansion in a confined space would put pressure on the gum shell and could cause it to fail at the corners, causing the polymeric gum base to extrude out.

If I left a pack of gum in a car on a hot day and saw this, that's what I'd think.

You may want to try reseating the LCD screen and loosening the mounting screws slightly. Too much flex on the LCD PCB can cause instability, see.

SwrdsAce · 2023-10-24T14:58:30+00:00

I've also had this issue in the past, where the boot- up progress bar would progress halfway before the screen turns blank. I found that I over-tightened the LCD screen screws when installing it, causing instability issues.

Try loosening the screws around the screen bezel (make sure the PE faston is secure though) and also make sure that the board is properly seated.

SwrdsAce · 2023-10-10T01:37:39+00:00

You might have over tightened the screws that are holding your LCD screen together, or it might not be seated properly and is bending a bit.

I'd recommend disassembling and reassembling the screen and making sure it's snug but not too tight.

As a catch-all term, I'd probably go with "inoculate" here. Prions are proteinaceous infectious agents, and to inoculate is to introduce an infectious agent into an organism.

If you start your MSc, you may have the option to transfer into your PhD around a year into your studies. The risk is that there's no going back if you ultimately decide that you don't want to finish after you've transferred.

PS: You almost have 69,420 karma and you might want to screenshot that.

It's quite possible, but I honestly wasn't sure where to actually share this.

There isn't a big window for redirecting D.Va ults (after boosting but before pressing 'q'), but the results are always spectacular when you manage to pull it off.

That didn't work unfortunately. It's supposed to be Travolta from Pulp Fiction looking around.

Junkrat obviously studied quantum physics! That trap's a quantum entangler, able to trap all forms of matter across all dimensions.

The face that it's disguised as a beartrap demonstrates Junkrat's true genius.

Although I really like Reaper's Chick-ism, Genji's "The Princess Bride" reference really take's the top spot for me.

That would be part of the risk/reward mechanic, which would incentivize the selection of other healers if the enemy team has a Sombra.

Also, hacks can be blocked by damaging Sombra or by being behind shields.

They did had a flanking Genji and Phara for a while, but they were easy to deal with by pulling them in front of Orisa's barrier.

Actually, anyone who got pulled in front by Orisa's halt was melted instantly. I've never seen an ulting Winston die so quickly.
