They’ll spin it as “Air travel has been on an upward tick!”

Hah! Did you paint that yourself? That’s pretty cool.

PETG just is a pain in the ass sometimes. Really sensitive to moisture, and it loves to stick to hot metal. So it has a tendency to overextrude because of the steam, and bunch up on the nozzle, causing all sorts of havok.

The key to printing it is just keeping it dry – the latest batches I’ve held feel like they’re way softer than I remember, so I suspect mfgs are putting more glycol in it than before.

Also, do a sanity check and go back and print PLA from time to time. Sometimes you won’t realize something else is wrong and you’ll blame it on the filament, but something like the idler arm on the extruder is broken, etc.

You can print it on Textured PEI, or Glass - but I suggest putting a little glue stick down to act as a release agent on the PEI - PETG and PEI bond together too well in some instances (ESPECIALLY on smooth PEI)

I run a business repairing consumer-grade 3D printers.

I’ll appeal to whatever I think is gonna keep your ass alive.

I’m going to tell you that people who try to commit suicide often end up unable to use their own facilities, and wind up trapped in a wheelchair unable to move or talk or care for themselves - so even if they still want to kill themselves, they’re trapped forever in hell until they die of old age instead. (Appeal to the chance you’ll fuck up)

I’m going to tell you of all the people you will hurt, and all the things that will suffer when you’re gone. (Appeal to Emotion, Appeal to disappointing others, etc)

I’m going to tell you that you’re loved, I’m going to try to stop you. Life is a wonderful, fantastical lottery that you’ve somehow managed to win, and I’m not going to let you throw it away. (Threats if I have to…)

I will use every fallacy in the book to try and keep you here with us. Alive.

Really wish they transitioned to a “Not-for-profit” structure, rather than non-profit. Non-profits can still be profit driven, sadly.

Why in the hell would they shoot an already dead food service worker?

Isn’t this basically the exact thing that happened with the “mouse utopia” project?

They made a good example - BlueZ software stack sucks; if Fluoride can be put under a compatible open source license, I’d much rather us use better subsystems in 100% userspace. That’s a win for everyone.

Why should trans women be excluded for being above average but other women who are above average shouldn’t be?

Because by nature of their transition, they don’t fit in a single cleanly defined category. We should just change the definition to say: Those with XX chromosomal pairs. Because you can’t change those. Nice and simple. Anyone with double-X chromosomes, good deal. Anyone with XY - goes into the “open” category - which is by default, the ones usually with mostly men in them.

It’s objectively the truth that sex is another class category created by humans to sort people and enforce a hierarchy of sex.

This is patently false. It was a category to distinguish between two observable variations of human. The category of man/woman existed in the annals of history far beyond what we know today. Before we were humans, we knew instinctively what a man/woman was. You see these systems in herding species already. Don’t give me this “we created this division just so we could dunk on others” bullcrap.

If I’m born crippled, I can’t compete in the Olympics. It happens. We can only produce the closest thing to fair that we all agree on. It’s not to exclude transgender people, it’s simply that the exclusion just happens to exist based on how we determine eligibility.

It’s literally the most logical and ethical rationale that could be achieved. The ethical and logical rationale is that sexual dimorphism exists, and we understand it quite succinctly.

They are separated by sex, because people are separated by sex characteristics.

Since Gender no longer refers to sex, it only refers to perceived place in society, it has no place being used as a metric for sports.

“But muh family and fwiends use it!” or “I have an autistic cousin twice removed so I can’t stop because it’s the only thing he’ll use!”

Any excuse to keep huffing that copium.

80% on Tier 3 or lower for Proton Click Play. That’s not a small number. That means a majority of games, have bugs, crashing issues, things that cause them to be unplayable or glitchy…

So I repeat…

A lot of good those benchmarks do when only 20% of the games are playable to the same degree…

Great, you have success with it. But your anecdotal evidence does not make a solid claim to base things upon.

From a benchmark perspective this has shown to be false in some or many areas.

A great lot of good those benchmarks are going to to when your game doesn’t run AT ALL. This is such a non-argument it’s not even funny at this point.

It’s great to be an open source advocate, but this argument crosses the line into zealotry. It has very little basis in the reality of things.

Do I want Microsoft to die a quick and painful death? Absolutely. Is Linux the superior choice in all situations – absolutely not.

I mean, just stop being offended over that kind of shit constantly and I won’t have to worry about it. Stop calling people intolerant when they use the wrong name. Stop attacking the people who are trying to learn, and maybe they will.

Normal, people don’t get offended if you forget their name. You need a set of rules that follows the stereotype. Then people can learn the stereotypical rules, and be fine.

If that number were 15% or so I’d agree.

So if they exist on OSX, then Windows doesn’t have a bastion on them.

Did you miss the qualifier “that uses explosive charges”? The engineering challenge is in the explosive part.
