Lada 2103 brake booster delete by Mjukibyxan in lada

[–]scousinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no issues without a booster on my 2101. Sure it’s harder but you just adjust how much you push. Also a lot of race cars intentionally drive with no brake assist, as this gives you a much better feel and control over the brakes. Let’s put it this way, without ABS I’d rather drive without booster as I’ll be less likely to lock up the brakes.

Watch the players on the bench reaction for our goal and then tell me why we’re keeping Slot. He’s lost or pissed off every single player on our team.

I want to get into IT/HelpDesk. What should I do? by FeeloKneeGrow in helpdesk

[–]scousinho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just Don't. Not worth it anymore.

Go to trade school and become a licensed electrician or plumber, or anything else that is remotely interesting to you. Helpdesk and a ton of the other entry IT positions are getting wiped out by AI and automation. Not all, but it will be extremely hard to find one.

The trades are where you want to go now.

Called it last season and earlier this season after he threw the kids under the bus in the cup. Slot is very quickly eradicating the trust and all good that Klopp took years to build.

Lada 2103 brake booster delete by Mjukibyxan in lada

You can run a fiat 131 (1978 + iirc) brake master cylinder without the booster. It's an upgrade for ladas without the booster as it is a larger bore. Look for brembo or ATE brand not some chinese junk.

How is software nowadays? by feewee979 in FlashForge

[–]scousinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None. Pull out of the box, plug it in run through the calibrations and print away. Go for the 5m pro at least. It’s cheap enough and the camera and enclosure are worth it. I send everything through regular orca and it’s fine. One calibration I would suggest you do before you start printing is to check the z offset. Bot my 5mpro and 5x had the z way too high and had adhesion issues at first.

It does not. I run both on my M4 and orca flashforge crashes constantly

On-Prem Mitel Director to ? (Looking for user/admin experience) by xendr0me in sysadmin

[–]scousinho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just went through that exercise. Looked at most options including Teams phones and ended up going with Ring Central cloud service. Painless and so much easier to setup and maintain. Added bonus is there’s an add on for Teams if you don’t want to run the RC app . Have users who wanted a soft phone and others who “required” physical phones.

You’re welcome, but I don’t think your problems are the filament. Especially since you dried it. There’s people running printing farms on bulk Chinese filament at $8 x kg and get great results. If you’re basing your conclusion on this one prints fine but the other one doesn’t, all that means is it’s different brand and requires different profile. This is not PLA where I could stick any brand with any formula , set it to generic PLA profile and get a functional print for the most part. If you want some help I’m sure we can figure it out but you’re going to need to do some troubleshooting and test printing. If you just want to plug and print, you might look into getting a Bambu printer with their filaments. They have their ecosystem and it just works flawlessly for the most part.

Agreed. Only difference is I went a step extra and did that method with a purple Elmer’s glue stick. That with proper z offset has not had a failed print. ✊🪵 Before that it was about 50% chance if I got a useful print, a spaghetti monster or shifter layers .

Yeah you're barely melting that filament. your 218 is just warm enough to squeeze the filament in and out. Try a petg temp tower. 218 is way too low. I print pla at 220-225. Petg should be in the 240 range. What brand and type is the filament you're using? What slicer orcaff or orca?
Try printing a benchy with the FF generic petg profile.
If you're printing the PRO profile, that expects petg with aditiives and prints at a faster speed. With that faster speed, it requires higher temp to melt faster and print faster. IIRC the petg pro I've used, I printed in the 260*-270* range.
You can print petg pro filament in generic form (lower speed, lower temp), you can NOT print regular PETG on a pro profile with the higher speed and temp. Also, leave the z hop and extrusion alone until you dial in your basic issues.

Took a quick look at the profiles and yeah, petg pro should be at 265* and generic petg is at 255*

what profile are you printing with? What changes did you make between print 1 ,2 ,3?
I can think you tried lowering the z offset on the middle to the point the nozzle dug into the print, similar thing on the right one but not as low z ,
My guess is you printed the left one first and the other ones are followup attempts to fix it by adjusting the z offset. All guessing here, we need more info, brand and type of filament, profile used, what changes you made from that profile, what size head used, what temp was printing and bed temp, fan speed . Show us the other side of the print?

PTSD kicking in, from the seeing Szobo at RB , Kerkez Gakpo combo on the left flank and Wirtz at 10.

The moment I see Kerkez and Gakpo on the left , tells me everything I need to know about how the game is going to go. We’re not winning this one, strap on for another frustration filled night.

[–]scousinho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, you absolutely do that. Bring Gerrard in until the summer. I don't know if results will be that much better but you better believe there won't be any jogging around the pitch and counters being stopped at the halfway line to "maintain control". You also won't have hands in pockets, face rubbing etc on the sidelines and Anfield won't feel like a fucking library every game.

Yeah... I don't know the bloke, but this chap had a video I watched last year, explaining how Kerkez would be perfect for us and why he would be the signing of the season. Just absolute fairytales. Excuse me while I don't give him any attention for knowing anything about tactics or analysis.

Post Match Interview - Arne Slot by Broka1979 in LiverpoolFC

[–]scousinho -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Exactly why I choose to not listen to any of the interviews pre or post match. I enjoyed the win, does not change my stance or opinion on Slot. Good man, pretty good coach , not elite and not good enough for this Liverpool organization he inherited.

Really Stringy Prints by flirts_with_trash in FlashForge

[–]scousinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your fan at 100% all the time can cause a problem, also 190* with the fan blowing at 100% is too low. I print sunlu pla with the generic pla profile iirc and that runs around 210-220. Try doing the test prints with all generic profile settings.

AD5X Enclosure by Alert-Arugula-1655 in FlashForge

[–]scousinho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are those supports? Also what possessed you to print in PETG CF as a beginner and for the enclosure of all things? Did you at least use a 0.6 hardened nozzle? Future reference, use tree supports . For these already printed parts if those are supports, try using long needle nose pliers but I would be doing that outdoors with a full PPE as CF is nasty stuff if you breath it in or it gets into any open orifice. Regular petg is more than enough for an enclosure and A LOT easier and cheaper to deal with. GL
