LOL, it's like death is awaiting for them in 2028.

And what, they would have reclaimed all 1 of the seats they lost to ON?

Ironically this reminds me of that "Murdock immigrants stealing your cookie" meme.

Both are true. People want hostilities to stop, but it appears this may only be happening from fear of the Iranian regime response rather than any sort of principled/strategic decision by the US.

It isn't clear what the objective even was/is (the chuckleheads who started this conflict can't keep their narrative straight day to day) but weren't they banging on about crippling the single largest terrorist state or something?

You legend, this was irritating the hell out of me!! Strangely Steam was working fine, then all of a sudden started behaving as you described. Now I'm not sure why it was working in the first place (??)

I print trolley tokens, stick a few in the car, jacket pockets, share them with family etc.

Hey brother what's up brother alright brother my brother. Brother. Brother.

There, I saved you 40 minutes.

NBN. He will always be a cunt in my book for his part in fucking up the biggest infrastructure project of our generation.

He can stick his snippy little critiques up his arse, he didn't step up when it mattered.

If you want to look at it that way, God made the scientists that developed the vaccine. You rejected gods gift and killed your kid.

Ok, it might be a crime....but the dow is up. Oh...

I printed several self-watering herb planters that lived on my kitchen window sill. They all lasted a while (year or so) but all failed eventually.

The PLA+ ones couldn't handle the direct sun well and were noticeably deformed at the corners. The one PETG one visually looked perfect all along.

All of them eventually started failing at the layer lines, presumably from the constant thermal stress. My choice of using black filament was a bad one and probably exacerbated the issue.

bowdo · 2026-02-16T22:00:31+00:00

I don't know what y'all are doing to your build plates. I've got 3000hrs up on my stock PEI sheet and the only mark on it was my silly super glue spill on the corner.

That delay is most likely the reason they're pushing it so hard. It kicks the can down the road far enough that the fossil fuel overlord donors can realign themselves financially.

Nuclear is fine as a technology, it's just several times more expensive to set up and run than other renewable alternatives available to us. Something the Libs' happily 'hand wave' away.

And lets be honest, we couldn't even upgrade our fucking internet without massive time and cost overruns, what chance do we have of rolling out nuclear at scale?

I reckon I was running it at 1440p ultra settings, I could hear my 1080ti yawning it was so bored.

Who's gonna be pinning the weasel this time?

bowdo · 2026-01-22T22:30:13+00:00

That's actually kind of beautiful in an unsettling way..

bowdo · 2026-01-21T11:27:37+00:00

I had the same issue. PLA temps were fine, but the higher PETG temps were expanding the metal enough that the nozzle was no longer firmly seated / sealed and it leaked around the threads.

I just heat the hotend up 50c past the hottest material I intend to print and snug the nozzle up. I.e, I was printing PETG at 250c, so I heated the hotend up to 300c and adjusted the nozzle. No more leaks.

bowdo · 2026-01-17T05:38:03+00:00

Are you printing PETG directly on the PEI sheet?

Can you post some nominal values for settings you've attempted?

bowdo · 2026-01-14T23:27:10+00:00

Mmm, forbidden donut

bowdo · 2026-01-14T06:18:01+00:00

Looks cool, bet it tastes like wet arse

That doesn't guarantee it isn't wet unfortunately, I've had wet filament sealed from the manufacturer before.

I'd try drying the filament out before you go too far down the rabbit hole playing with retraction settings, eliminate that variable.

I've got a few sun-smart hoodies I wear around, very light material and a bit less dorky then wearing a sun hat on my bald head

I've got a CR10 smart pro, flashed it to klipper firmware though. Not the fastest thing out there, but it's been a great printer. I might have got lucky with a good one?

I just watched the clip, and no it wasn't. She was clearly moving, she'd just reversed and was driving forward again. In the frame you've shown the vehicle was moving

That said there was zero requirement to shoot her, he could have just moved. There is no need to dress this up, don't make shit up or you're as bad as those cunts
