My only complaint with the rest is the weird kitchen that’s both gigantic and way too small.

Especially right after everyone began retooling factories to produce them and the rest of the world leaves us behind in development. America will be producing the Yugos of the 1980s in a few short years.

I get them frequently around this time of year and found that making myself as cold as possible is the only thing that helps. I usually use an ice pack, water, and a fan first (with my head buried in a pillow to block out any sound) and if that’s not enough, I’ll go sit outside on the porch in a tshirt until I cool off and it goes away. It’s super weird but it works.

That isn’t really possible to calculate for as you don’t know how many people will buy ‘XYZ’ until after the fact.

Say two separate movies cost $1M to make and only 5k people watch Movie A while 100 million people watch Movie B. According to this, Movie A would need to cost $200 per copy, while Movie B would cost $0.01. The “full price” would be constantly fluctuating so how could you apply it to the first hundred people who watch the movie? What about the last hundred to watch it?

Full price is just code for “what we want” not necessarily what it takes to recoup their investment. These companies want profit and they want every release to be as popular as something like End Game so they’re going to claim “full price” is whatever it takes to reach that $10 billion goal.

It turns out people don’t want to pay the full price for content, so streaming companies are experimenting with ads to fund the difference.

Who exactly determines what “full price” is? This reads like a statement from music executives in the 1990s when they were charging $25 for a CD with 10 songs on it and claiming piracy was costing them quadrillions of dollars. With inflation, that equates to just under $50 per CD today. Is that full price or is full price whatever people are willing to pay at any given time?

This is a weird setting that must be in some brand new release because I’ve been using WLED for years and it’s always just been a current limiter for the entire strip. Perhaps it has something to do with OP using COB lights as I’ve only ever used it for standard strip lights like 5050 WS2812B or 5050 WS2815.

Yes that’s correct. Same goes for the normal WS2811 strip lights which are addressable every 3 LEDs.

It’s interesting to hear that there is a new style as I’ve done several prints using the old style and it’s so lame that it only works for a few minutes after being exposed directly to bright light especially with how rough it is on the machine. It wore a groove through the hotend on my old Sidewinder X2 after using about a Kg to print a giant Lego skeleton.

Which just shows how timeless poop jokes can be.

“has distinguished himself in Congress through his focus on achieving desperately needed reform at the Department of Justice.”

By finding ways to weasel out of charges after keeping a 12 year old captive as a “house boy” whose relationship “is defined by their love?” Or was it from weaseling out of charges for trafficking and having sex with a 17 year old girl along with an associate who plead guilty and was sentenced to 11 years in prison?

Where are all those QAnon followers at who eat, sleep, and breathe “exposing” all the sex trafficking that happens across the country?

If all you have are STLs then you’re pretty limited. I use Meshmixer to do basic modifications or tweaks to STLs but it’s not super user friendly.

They’re cheap and offer port forwarding and there is a radio button you can click to stop seeing ads. It’s typically just a sale notice for AirVPN.

I’d take what you’re reading here with a grain of salt.

I switched to AirVPN from Mullvad after they removed port forwarding and it has been working fine for me. The phone client is dated like others say, and I have had a few ads popup in it, but it’s worked fine so far. I don’t have anymore knowledge about their privacy standards than the next guy, but I’m not too concerned as I’m just using it to torrent Linux ISOs.

I will say that Mullvad is a pretty stand-up company, and I was sad to leave them, but I need port forwarding.

Promoting plants 69ing is so 2024.

Wouldn’t you need to decimate the population of cows, pigs, and chickens in order to reduce their environmental impact? This argument always invokes an image of Thanos wiping out half the universe in order to ‘save’ it, but the people making this argument never seem to be receptive to acknowledging this point and just hand wave this step away.

Addictive like water and air are addictive.

You can buy little nutzerts that you melt into prints using a soldering iron so that you have threaded holes if that’s required of the parts you need.

Not sure what steps you can take to confirm the issue outside of replacing parts; but you could try swapping the thermistor with a new one and seeing if that fixes the issue, and if not keeping the spare on hand for future replacement. Your issue looks like it doesn’t appear until the hotend has been heated for a bit so it could be some internal connection coming loose from the thermal expansion and not something more obvious like a broken wire. It’s gotta be that or the heater itself.

Also you might PID tune the heater after the thermal paste replacement if you suspect it’s not reading correctly.

Obviously they wanted the sound deadening fabric there to muffle all the screams. This looks like it could be Patrick Bateman’s house.
