In his attacks on the ‘childless’ left, JD Vance once hyped a plan to give parents more votes
  • Bud, that isn't what a straw man is. Like, at all.

    And "objective computer analysis" can still be wrong and biased. Look at all the image classifiers that called black people monkeys cause they were trained almost exclusively on images of white people.

  • Pet origin stories
  • Ah, thanks for the info! A lot of the articles I was looking at said that they were good for people with allergies, including one from a vet service, so that's good to know.

    The whole hairless thing is also super unsettling to me so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • Pet origin stories
  • As someone who wants a cat but is really allergic, I'm not looking forward to shelling out for a Bengal or sphynx when the temptation gets too high...

    I watch shelters around here constantly, and only one of them has ever come through.

    It was adopted in about 10 seconds

  • The percentage of the population who did/didn't know of Crowdstrike probably reversed in the past week
  • When my grandparents call me to ask about something, I consider it main stream.

    They called me the day it happened asking wtf was up.

    I definitely think that the amount of people who know about has shot up probably a couple thousand percentage points, and not for the better, but it definitely didn't flip.

    The other guy needs to Google what "hyperbole" is though

  • Pity US voters their choice of leaders. Surely democracy is better than this? | Simon Tisdall
  • I understand completely, believe me. I've done plenty of work for my local Socialist Party branch. I play board games with the local candidate on a regular basis.

    I'm still not voting for him for anything. He isn't voting for himself either. We both know he has 0 chance of winning, partly because he has socialist next to his name, but primarily because he's a 3rd party that struggles to even get on the local ballots. We still raise awareness and spread our causes, but we live in a state that's outlawed anything other than first past the post, and we're both smart enough to know that, mathematically, he stands zero chance.

  • Two lifelong Republicans leave the GOP in support of trans grandchild
  • The "quarantine them" bit is a bit extreme there, bud. That's some straight up fascist shit, I don't care what kind side you're on.

    Feel free to criticize and throw milkshakes and other things that might get my banned here for saying, but that's actually fucked. Just because conservatives are willing to do it doesn't mean leftists should be willing. In the end they're still living breathing humans, even if I wished many of them weren't, and that's the main thing that separates leftists from conservatives, a belief in inherent humanity.

    And we absolutely should seek understanding. Not sympathizing, mind you, but definitely an understanding. GI Joe was right when they said "Knowing is half the battle."

  • Please.

  • If they want to change their positions, great! Fantastic! Love it!

    Just don't expect me to immediately believe you. Or to immediately embrace you because you suddenly care now that it affects you and your family.

    And that still doesn't make comparing people with a chosen political position with groups that have experienced actual physical harm and systemic abuse not absolutely disgusting amounts of BS.

  • Concerned Ape (Stardew Valley): I swear on the honor of my family name, i will never charge money for a DLC or update for as long as I live. Screencap this and shame me if I ever violate this oath.
  • Agreed. If CA charged a few bucks for the 1.6 update, I'd have bought it without hesitation. Same with 1.5.

    The best example right now is Factorio. There's a new expansion coming out in October. It isn't free, but it adds basically an entire new game on top of an already excellent and fully fleshed out game. I'm gonna buy it the day it goes on sale without question and without waiting for reviews.

    Then there's crap like Starfield where they added 1 mission for $7.

    Slay the Spire is current $8.50. Starbound is $4.50 (both are on sale rn for future readers) if you're looking for a space game.

  • Missouri woman who served 43 years in prison freed after murder conviction overturned
  • And take every penny out of the AG and police budgets. If that goes over budgets, then start taking it from pensions.

    People that hold the power of life, death, and freedom over others should pay the full cost of their fuck ups

  • What's Vance got to do with it?
  • what if the wife is the one beating up the husband

    Impossible. Male domestic victims are just (word I won't say) that need to man up and show their wife who's boss.

    Now, I'm gonna go gargle some soap for that.

  • Ender 3 having issues with text

    Hi everyone,

    I'm having a weird issue with text such as the one in this image. Big or small, fancy or regular, all text comes out looking like it does in the image - cracked and hollow. I've spent the last few days trying to figure out why, and I'm stumped.

    I've tried printing slower and slower and adding more and more top layers (the bottom 2 bottle caps are completely solid with 100% infil), but it doesn't seem to fix the issue.

    Here's what I'm working with:

    • Ender 3
      • Software 2.0.8.27
      • Hardware 4.2.2
    • CR Touch
    • PrusaSlicer 2.8.0
    • MakerBot PLA Filament
    • I've used various temperatures and speeds. All of them have generated the terrible text you see here

    Thanks in advanced for the help!

    Update: We seem to be getting somewhere!

    !

    The top 2 are the same ones featured in the post above. The bottom left was printed at 110% extrusion and normal speed. The bottom right was printed at 110% extrusion and a much slower speed for the text, and it looks much better! I'm printing another now with higher bridge flow rate (it was 70%, I set it to 85%), so I'll update again in a few minutes when that finishes!

    Thanks for the information about calibrating e steps from everyone! It's getting late, so I don't want to mess around with that tonight, but I'll give it a shot tomorrow!

    Update 2: welp.

    !

    That's possibly the worst one yet. I'm reprinting the bigger insert piece seen in the original post to check if my printer simply can't do that quality or if it's the e steps. If it's e steps, I'm going to bed...

    Update 3:

    Welp, seems like it's the e-step. However, it's too late for me to care about that right now, so I'm going to bed. Thanks for the help everyone! I'll work on fixing the issue tomorrow
