I wonder if it would make the company more money in the long run for people to forget to turn off unlimited and auto renew than it would cost the company to “oopsie! Someone must have paid for this!” And pay for it the first time in secret as a marketing expense.

I’ve tried adding holes in some things and sometimes it uses more filament since the walls often use a lot more filament than sparse infill, even with the holes.

From what I have read, ice is a lot less stable than we usually think. Over time the moisture in food will migrate out and form crystals on the surface leaving the food item dehydrated. It’s more or less the same principle they use for freeze drying.

If you ever find crystals on top of your ice cream, it’s the same thing happening.

Can you feed in the text for all your assignments from your instructors and file complaints with the administration for any above 0%?

I was a SketchUp make guy back in the day and was able to stick with it a long time but it’s so old it isn’t working right for me anymore (Linux).

Plasticity is about the closest thing I have found. I paid about 175 the other day and plan to use this version for the next 10 years.

Yeah, well we aren’t talking about Brazil. My state is all paper. There are multiple audits and there are public observers at every stage. The shit would hit the fan if it was even one ballot off. It’s a super transparent and auditable system.

There’s a lot of good thoughts here, but don’t forget the effect that rationalization as a coping mechanism has on behavior.

For example if restaurants were so expensive growing up that they never got to go, they have the choice of feeling like they are missing out or rationalizing that what they have is better to stop wanting the things they can’t have.

Later when there are affordable restaurants, they still carry that rationalization with them and may not even realize it. They may actually believe it at this point.

Not saying this is the case with your parents, but this kind of thing happens all the time in every culture.

I started on Bazzite when I switched, and it was ok but never felt quite right. After that I switched to Garuda, which is also designed to be a ready right out of the box experience that is gaming and performance focused.

It is based on Arch, so it is currently being kept up to date and has been extremely reliable. Pretty much every issue has been solved with an update and reboot.

As an aside, everyone always pushes KDE, but I personally love xfce, it’s worth a look.

Yeah, the NPC chat feature is an obvious miss on their part. It’s all the other ai in there that’s impressive really. The stuff you didn’t notice enough to complain about.

Have you not seen Where Winds Meet? It’s exactly this. They clearly used AI pretty heavily in translation and filling in all the corners of the world and NPCs.

I’d hate it if it weren’t so amazing.

After Bazzite I switched to Garuda. No regrets. Might be worth a look.

Foundry has so many game systems, even systems like custom system builder, which let you make your own.

If all you want is spreadsheets, why not use shared Google docs or something?

Maybe you are right. I can only say I have been using it for a couple of years and haven’t had any trouble.

My first distro was Bazzite, and I switched to Garuda to get away from immutability.

Maybe it’s silly, but it pissed me off to not be able to change my login screen background.

I have never had problems with Nvidia drivers with these distros, and Arch on Garuda has been easy. Honestly, I don’t know what all the fuss is about over these. Maybe I just got lucky with my choices.

Also I use xfce, it just looked straightforward. It has some quirks regarding the application bar, but had otherwise been pretty straightforward.

All your points are valid, but I’m not going to put in 3rd party hardware and their default slicer seems great to me. There’s a group of users for who this is all more or less not an issue.

My Bambu had also been soooo easy. So there’s that.

Think of how much you grew up between 11 and 14. It’s even more pronounced between 14 and 17.

This is not a good idea, whether it feels good or not.

Besides, in a year if you kiss, she’s a pedo. If it will suddenly not be ok then, it’s probably not ok now.

Not enough plastic is coming out of your nozzle.

It really could be a lot of things… a clog, temperature to low, too much friction against the filament so it is hard to pull through, nozzle is bigger than your slicer settings say.

Try one thing at a time. Good luck!

When I lived in LA it started a week early and on the 4th itself it was a fireworks show finale amount of fireworks for 8 hours straight.

But just turn on the radio… right.

Maybe it’s time to realize different places are different and there may be values to other people’s perspectives even if they don’t reflect your particular worldview.

I didn’t get a Bambu printer because of the price or design, I got it because of its “just works” reputation, which it does.

Unless Qidi matches that ease, it isn’t equivalent, and that’s important to mention. Maybe it does?

And yeah, I don’t love the recent changes, but that’s only ideologically. Practically speaking it is still amazing.

I just got it yesterday, don’t worry your day will come!
