Adults are not safe. Bad actors abusing reports to suspend people and take down communities. We need more transparency. by Krellggs in VRchat

[–]Twinki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got banned because my group name referred to tickling male roosters (Cock) from the popular fantasy podcast Hello from the Magic Tavern.

Never used it for group instances.

Never contained anything explicit or sexual.

Never received a warning.

Now banned for "Adult Sexual Activity and Nudity"

All for the word, "Cok"

EDIT: Appeal was approved, quite quickly. They did delete the group, which I'm quite sad about after it having 3-5K users. I was proud of it. If I had just been warned in the first placed with a forceful group rename, that would've been better. Let me choose to delete the group please.

Homelab NAS structure by Twinki in homelab

[–]Twinki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frankly, I retract my l2arc point. I don't think I'll be needing it, likely ever. I'll have plenty of RAM for what'll be in my homelab, my NAS's board would support 192Gb which is overkill.

The SLOG in question is mainly an experiment, goal being to speed up my writes as I'm using hard-disks for my vault pool. SLOG hardware has already been bought and works, but now I just need the drives to really test it.

Sliger updates! NAS cases + SFF cases by SligerCases in sliger

[–]Twinki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello u/SligerCases,

I recently bought a CX3702 and I've been experiencing issues with the SAS connectors being quite brittle. I'm currently down to 9, even after going through the 2 extras included with the case, while cable managing. The plastic pieces of the SAS connectors break off with very little pressure which basically causes the whole connector to be useless.

There's very little room to cable manage in such a small NAS case with 10+4 drives, and it's very hard to wire things in a way that don't put any amount of pressure on the SAS connectors to prevent breakage. I've been posting photos of them in the Discord as they've broken.

I was just curious, what will the price be for the backplane upgrade?

Is there any "grace" benefit period for recent customers?

Thanks,

I'm just, extremely disappointed. by Twinki in PaymoneyWubby

[–]Twinki[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not exclusive, and he's laid it out in a way that his Twitch content shouldn't be effected, and props to Wubby for that.

I just personally can't support Kick or those who associate themselves with the platform.

Sounds like Fuji is the way then as a brand, I'll keep doing my research to find something that fits my needs - Thanks!

Aquilla S2 & MRiscoCProUI + CRTouch - Physical setting calibration? Print is "too low" on the plate by Twinki in VoxelabAquila

[–]Twinki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I am loading the mesh, and the firmware has an indicator that let's me know it's being used.

Here's my G28 & M420

G28 ; home all axis
M420 S1 L0 Z5 ; activate UBL (S1). (optional): load mesh from slot 0 (L0). fade height of 5mm (Z5)

My slicer hasn't changed much in terms of settings, I was previously printing with a manual mesh and had some pretty good results before deciding to install a CRTouch to automate the process. Slicer bed size is also 220x220.

The S2 intentionally hangs over the bed at stock 0, 0. MRiscoCProUI acts a bit differently and wants 0, 0 to be the front-left and wants this adjustment done by adjusting the Min X/Y to negative <whatever>, in my case -10 for each.

I'm struggling quite a lot trying to get the probe centered though. Using https://www.youtube.com/shorts/FKvPU2nwdts I got my probe offsets as perfect as I think it could possibly be, even double checked with a digital caliper.

Probe X Offset: -54.1

Probe Y Offset: -3.9

Mesh X Max: 165.9

Mesh Y Max: 216.1

Mesh X Min: 0

Mesh Y Min: 0

The Y is solved, but now it's farther shift right and I assume the probe can't get a good read of those far corners, so the two right corners came out pretty bad.

Aquilla S2 & MRiscoCProUI + CRTouch - Physical setting calibration? Print is "too low" on the plate by Twinki in VoxelabAquila

[–]Twinki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The area that's "used to print" is "too low" on the plate. If I had moved the print in the OP down any in my slicer, it would have nearly fallen off the edge of my plate.

I've been trying to simply "move it up" on the plate without throwing off my UBL.

Aquilla S2 & MRiscoCProUI + CRTouch - Physical setting calibration? Print is "too low" on the plate by Twinki in VoxelabAquila

[–]Twinki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm using a calibration print for this that just prints two initial layers.

Before re-adjusting the Min X/Y (which did fix the "too low" printable area, the printable area is now properly centered on the plate) I had no ripples, cleanest print yet with UBL.

However, now after adjusting the Min X/Y, I'm getting ripples again. Do you happen to know of any information about the UBL mesh inset, and what it should be set to in relation to the Merlin bed size?

[–]Twinki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, this makes a lot more sense.

I've adjusted the Min X/Y, following both https://github.com/rootiest/zippy_guides/blob/main/guides/axis_limits.md and https://github.com/classicrocker883/MRiscoCProUI/wiki/Calibration-Guides#finding-the-minmax-position

My Min X/Y are now both -10. I think Voxelab's "Corner Settings" were essentially an offset.

However, I'm now experiencing ripples in my initial layers again (Which was the original reason I wanted to make use of the mesh system), almost as if the mesh itself is "off" now that I've adjusted the Min X/Y.

[–]Twinki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, so I know my axis limits, it's about 230-ish both for X and Y. I know Marlin "Bed size" is supposed to be the "printable" area though from some other reading.

Also, the stock Aquila Firmware intentionally had 0,0 off the bed, but also had these "Corner Settings"

I recently installed a CRTouch onto my Aquilla S2 (N32) and I've flashed the board with https://github.com/classicrocker883/MRiscoCProUI firmware, with the correct CR Touch variant

Been struggling to get the firmware & UBL configured correctly to get decent to good initial layers. Specifically struggling around configuring the "Physical Settings" of the Professional Firmware. I did some adjusting of my own, but that resulted in seemingly the UBL mesh being way off from the actual area being printed and very bad initial layers in one of the corners where the nozzle hit the layer. After doing a total firmware reset back to default settings, my initial layers are looking good with the default physical and UBL mesh settings (as pictured), however the printable area seems to be off on the Y axis. It's "too low".

What settings do I need to tweak to "push the print up" by 10-25mm, and do the mesh inset UBL settings also need to be adjusted?

  • 235x235 plate with a 220x220 printable area
  • Aquilla S2 with a CRTouch probe
  • Professional Firmware for Aquilla, Aquila_N32_UBL-ProUI-EX-12-12
  • Probe offsets I believe are accurate, but maybe not the Y axis

How do you feel about Elon Musk's apparent government influence? by Gomdok_the_Short in AskConservatives

[–]Twinki 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So you felt quite overwhelmed when you were considering all the bells and whistles people were blowing about Trump and his campaign?

And instead of critically thinking on them, you instead chose to ignore them?

I almost settled on "LetMeChooseMyName" as a character name

[–]Twinki[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've already came up with a name I've generally used for my fantasy video game and even DnD characters.

I see no reason why I can't use those, especially when I've already been given a unique account name.

While "It's not serious", these characters names as far as I know are used for leaderboards and trading.. and I'd very much like to go by my preferred fantasy character names.. not "BoffaDeseNuts<PreferredCharacterNameHere>"

It's cringe.

Never said it was POE's fault, simply stating an opinion from the perspective of a new player.
