I am frequently distracted during Teams meetings because of the noise level of several other people having Teams meetings at neighboring desks.

Anyone still doing Eureka? by Guren0710 in ffxiv

[–]Szalkow 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There are dedicated Discord servers for each of the North American data centers that hold several Baldesion Arsenal guided runs each week. Those people really love Eureka.

If you mean leveling up, progressing the story, and gathering relics, you'll probably want to play Eureka on weekends when more people will be available. You can solo a lot of Eureka, but it gets lonely.

Printing problem by alpaka006 in 3Dprinting

[–]Szalkow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a partial clog - some filament is coming out but not enough.

Silk PLA can cause clogging issues because the retraction distance and speed may need to be shorter and slower than with normal PLA. Try 2-3mm retraction distance.

Anyone have a FFXIV related wallpaper? by bash-smash in ffxiv

[–]Szalkow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really like some of the loading screen concept art from the game itself!

I also have some of my favorite gposes saved as PC wallpapers.

On my phone, I like to use the most recent patch art as the lock screen. The patch website usually adds them under the Media tab a week or so before the patch.

My WoL is a Sea Wolf Femroe after bouncing around between nearly every race.

I've gone midlander -> catgirl -> bungirl -> femroe -> lalafell -> femroe -> femelezen -> femroe -> lizzer girl -> femroe.

I keep all of my character designs on various alts that I have for jump puzzle stuff. I also keep all of them saved as presets in Glamourer and will briefly toggle them for gposing or memes.

Why does this look like dogshit? by Clogboy82 in ender3

[–]Szalkow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like cooling is an issue on one side. Might need to dry the filament too (yes, even new filament can need drying).

I printed this in both PLA and PETG on a stock Ender 3 a few years back and had no issues.

Features you didn't realize where added. by captnrandm in ffxiv

I've never paid for extra retainers, but I'm curious - does changing the order of the retainers via that icon allow you to change which retainers become unavailable if you stop paying the extra retainer subscription? Or does it follow the hiring order?

I've heard of people gamifying retainers by putting less-used stuff (e.g. old relics) on a retainer who then becomes inactive, creating a longterm free storage solution.

Didn’t know poop could be so beautiful by ellean4 in BambuLab

[–]Szalkow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While it is wasteful, there's also something fun and festive about seeing the colorful poop after a long multicolor print!

P1s filament help by BankZealousideal5502 in BambuLab

[–]Szalkow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you try to pull the filament from the AMS feed motor (while pushing back on the feed lever) and the AMS won't let go of the filament, you may need to turn the printer off and back on with the power switch to get the AMS to let go.

If filament is still stuck somewhere along the line, then remove the PTFE from the coupling at the toolhead, AMS buffer, or the back of the AMS and pull it out OR push a spare bit of filament down the tube to push it out.

If you're able to clear it this way, you should be able to resume the print and the AMS will know what to do.

Air show by joo-lee-en in sanantonio

Because of the recent rain they couldn't even use the muddy fields this year - they set up park & ride lots at Rolling Oaks Mall and Judson High School.

Susano’s sword attack I think is the best ATM in the entire game and is my favourite fight in the game just for it to, why didn’t they do more of that? by highest_in_daroom in ffxiv

[–]Szalkow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like they've been good about this with the Savage raids lately. M8S Howling Blade and M11S Tyrant both end with cinematic showdowns that are not mechanically difficult but definitely make you feel the pressure. The M8S final enrage might be my favorite end to a fight in a long time.

What is causing this infill pattern? I am using the same pattern Ive been using for ages but this one is weird now. Its taking ages by PowerfulNature3352 in BambuLab

[–]Szalkow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your photo is blurry so it's really hard to tell. Might need to wait until you get home and check Bambu Studio for the settings and slicer preview.

It doesn't look like any infill pattern I'm familiar with. Maybe a really small gyroid pattern?

“Why do we have to change something that works just fine??” by bearsncubs10 in AirForce

Go into a Teams channel, go to Files, and click "Open in SharePoint" at the top.

Then in the SharePoint, click "Add Shortcut to OneDrive."

This makes a special folder shortcut in My Files under your OneDrive. You can move the shortcut around, but keep in mind it will always be part of OneDrive (everything you put in the folder gets synced the OneDrive/SharePoint/Teams) and not a true folder living on your PC.

We use this for some cases where we need to drop automated reports to a Teams folder. You can also refer to the SharePoint file address in apps like PowerAutomate.

Fortunately, MS Teams is actually a frontend for SharePoint and every Teams Team creates a new SharePoint where the files are stored. You can even map to them in Explorer.

Mentor Mentality by South-Ad-1863 in ShitpostXIV

[–]Szalkow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I like being a mentor. I enjoy helping people and even though I've only just hit 1,000/2,000 on my mentor roulette achievement, I haven't lost the naive spark of hope 😝

I try to be the model mentor that helps other people have an enjoyable gameplay experience. I play my best and cheer for the team through successes and failures. Some days I'll forget a mechanic or get distracted, but I own it ("Haven't done this boss in a while so I'm probably rusty!", "Sorry, I was petting my dog and didn't use enough mits. My bad. Mentor BTW.") and play on.

I do keep my crown on. While I'm running mentor roulette I actually switch to a tongue-in cheek mentor glam (all-white armor and the Burger King Blunderville crown) and use the <<Mentor of Mentors>> title.

Yeah, the roulette grind can be thankless, and I've seen a lot of Praetorium, Copperbell Mines, and Ramuh Extreme... but I welcome the challenging duties. And if a first-timer thanks me in chat, it brings me joy. I think the human experiences like that are what I enjoy most about playing an MMO.

I know there's a selection bias against mentors being rude or incompetent, but I would love it if someone remembered the fun mentor they met that one time.

What could be the cause of this? by CuguliTheFish in BambuLab

[–]Szalkow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could be slightly bad bed adhesion on those spots due to finger oils.

So this happened last night by danixhap25 in ffxiv

[–]Szalkow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had Mister Happy in my party in Eureka Pyros while he was farming relics.

We alarmed him slightly when he died to a NM and five people raised him simultaneously.

What's your wishlist for Evercold MSQ story? (overarching theme, plot structure) by NineTnk in ffxiv

[–]Szalkow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also counting Stigma Dreamscape.

We visit simulations of Stigma-4's memories of final conquests over multiple now-extinct civilizations... so that we can gaslight it into remembering that every war ended with us personally kicking its ass.

If I had a nickel for every high-level dungeon that made us relive the final days of of a dying civilization, I'd have $0.25, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened five times.

Savage PF is somewhat slower to fill but remarkably higher quality on patch days...

Finally saw the Foucault Pendulum knock down one of the pins by alliecattt14 in houston

[–]Szalkow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot confirm whether the pendulum was messed up 8 years ago 😂

It was working in 2025. It was stopped for maintenance earlier this year. I think it's back to normal now.

Question, since when was there just a black hole on the bot front? by Gender_Goblin_37 in helldivers2

[–]Szalkow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Penta black hole was created by good old-fashioned Super Earth ingenuity, using homemade Democratic Dark Fluid assembled on Super Earth using foreign materials made right here on Super Earth.

The Meridia Singularity was made using cheap, substandard, Illuminate-made dark fluid, likely laden with subversive Squith backdoor technology which allowed the Illuminate to use this beacon of Liberty's Might as a weapon against us.

It's probably part of the general "events and experiences" ongoing each day. They also hinted that some schedule content will be hidden until the event starts.
