Windows 10 was actually ok when you got past some of the awful stuff. Nowhere as good as 7, but it did the job for me for years.

Windows 11 got announced though and I immediately switched to Linux lol.

It’s cool, but I think using this sub as an umbrella for everything non-digital is a bad idea. It should either be renamed to physical art, or another community should be made for contemporary art.

Btrfs my beloved. Things stop working? Just load a snapshot lol.

I forgot other fediverse platforms interact with this place. So upvotes translate to likes on mastodon and other platforms? I still feel like this should be anonymized, but I also get how that could be exploited since likes aren’t auditable in that case.

I was unaware of that. I thought it was only accessible to instance admins, and I think that’s how it should be.

Have you SEEN the drama that happens in this place? I feel like this is just asking for weird nobodies to harass anyone who quietly disagrees with them.

If this passes then I’m outta here.

I did, yes.

I forgot to post an update but I found the source of the issue. Turns out I’m a dumbass and I accidentally loosened my extruder’s tension arm.

Thank you. I recently replaced that gear as well, and the problem has gotten a bit better. I’ll be sure to check everything you just mentioned.

I tightened the tension arm and now it’s clicking when it reaches a piece of filament that isn’t extruding fast enough. So I think that means it’s an issue with the hotend not heating the filament fast enough. I’ll check the friction of the mod though just to be safe, and I don’t think I ever calibrated my E-steps, so I’ll have to do that.

Adjusting the tension arm seems to have helped a lot, so I think you’re on to something.

It’s metal, and it seems fine. I’ll try adjusting it for a bit more tension and see if that works.

Edit: nevermind it is plastic. But still, seems fine.

Honestly when it works it works wonderfully. Most of my problems with my ender 3 come down to me being a dumbass and not taking care of it properly, and/or just the nozzles they ship with it being cheap as fuck and impossible to cold pull.

No joke my first ever successful cold pull was 2 days ago, because I had finally gotten a decent set of nozzles.

If you want to get really serious about printing there are better options out there, but for the cost they really are awesome beginner printers (to be fair I haven’t kept up much with printers, so I don’t know many other good cheap ones). I mostly only dabble with printing, but my ender 3 pro that I got like 3 years ago has served me very well.

I don’t know the whole deal with them, but off the top of my head I know it’s a very far-right social media site that was fairly mainstream for a while. It got a lot of media coverage after getting hacked, so I guess a lot of people ended up blocking it once they heard of it.

I don’t know the full story. They were probably just a bunch of trolls like a lot of the other instances.

It’s the number of instances that have blocked them.

Accounts can’t defederate afaik. There’s a way to block instances on some apps, but it’s client-side and really just hides posts from that instance.

Really basic summary

Federated means that instances are connected, i.e. lemmy.world accounts and posts can interact with sh.itjust.works ones.

Defederated means that one of the instances is blocked by the other, so all communication between the two is blacklisted.

Linux is about on-par with windows xp/7 as it stands, and it has been for a while. The reason people haven’t switched is OEM and software support.

Technically linux users need third party tools to even boot into a usable OS.

Lost a couple hours of work on the snap version of krita since it couldn’t save the file for some reason. Switched away from Ubuntu as a whole after that experience.

Honestly, fish is the only thing I hate about Garuda. The variety of commands is good, but doing any kinda scripting in it physically hurts me. Wish they kinda just stuck with a more conventional shell like zsh.

Cool. It should still use it though. If for nothing else than the parallelization improvements it allows.

If we stuck with the “it works fine so I’m not moving away from it” approach then we’d all still be on x11. Nvidia sucks and they should be more of a team player, but I think they were right to push for explicit sync over implicit. We should’ve been doing this from the beginning on wayland.

1. The hack mainly targeted Debian and fedora

2. Arch doesn’t directly link openssh to liblzma, so the hack doesn’t affect arch users.

I see more posts complaining about annoying arch users than I actually see annoying arch users

That being said, hell yeah mint
