Yeah… I should expand. The penguins are just my favorite part of those movies and it matches the Linux motif that I started with yet falls apart, you know, when I name a windows laptop rico-w : P

1901-01-01? Me too!

Good to meet you birthday buddy

Mine are named after the penguins from the Madagascar movie : Skipper, Private, Kowalski, and Rico.

Unfortunately there’s only four so I often supplement with a suffix. For example, I’ve got an old windows laptop kicking around that is “rico-w”

… I should really commit to a naming scheme with a wider array of options.

Second this. Think I heard about it on lemmy, been using it ever since. Built in editing, copy to clipboard, save to file, all the stuff I need.

Especially when vi is better

Fight me🤺

(I kid, I kid, but not entirely ;)

It’s fine.

The occasional complaint I see is not enough that I’ve considered moving and I don’t even remember what those were. But the great thing about the fediverse is that you can move if you want!

Yep. Haven’t used windows besides poking at other people’s machines and trying to figure out wtf is going on in about 20 years.

I’m just as clueless as you bud, but I’ve got a bootable Linux drive I can plug in. Come on, you know you wanna… It’ll be great, you’ll love it. It’s free

You ever revisit an old problem, search it, find someone with the exact problem and as you read it think “yes… YES! This person has my exact same problem! Wait, the tone sounds familiar…”

Only to realize you found your own post from an old throwaway account? With no replies.

Because I have. It’s soul crushing.

I started calling it “Grandma Debian” for some reason.

… I say this as a Debian user after new versions of Mint failed to accurately detect my RAID size. I tried Ubuntu for giggles, same problem, but Grandma Debian worked perfect out of the box.

To be fair, it is a software RAID in the BIOS and those are known to be odd.

What fresh new hell is this?

: D

I think they just fixed it

Yeah, Linux can capture and playback the spoken distinction between lowercase and uppercase letters. Windows can’t do that.

You’re not taking advantage of that functionality?

Ah, delete the windows partition. That should keep me safe.

gun-zip just rolls off the tongue better. Two syllables instead of three? Yes, please.

I’ve never heard fs-tab in my life. Always f-stab. Hmmm…

Same. I go through periods of printing a lot then getting busy and not touching it for months. I’ve noticed my PLA and PLA+ get really brittle as they age even when stored in a dry box and drying again before use.

I can usually get it to print but I have to be gentle with it.

I agree with aloe juvenna as well. Looks like some I used to have.

Other recommendations are great but you could also try some type of adhesive AFTER you’ve eliminated any other potential problem sources.

It does look a over extruded. Have you calibrated your esteps? I always need to do that when changing filament types and sometimes even between rolls of the same filament type (especially bargain bin PLA from amzn)

My ender 3 with a textured glass bed sticks perfect with PLA and nothing else. For some reason PLA+ tends to lift. Glue stick helped with PLA+ but I hated dealing with because it REALLY stuck so I switched to masking tape. That does the job and is easier to remove. On my CR-10 with plain glass bed (no texture) I use hairspray… Mostly because that’s what the guy I bought it from recommended and, to be honest, it does work amazingly. Nothing sticks to that glass plate bed without an adhesive but it pops right off once the bed cools down.

That said, I don’t recommend “extra” adhesives unless you’re fully sure you’ve solved any other potential problems. They can be a help/bandaid but if the root cause is something else then you’re just masking it.

Some materials and beds need some help, some don’t. I primarily use PLA and PLA+ with the occasional PETG and TPU.
