I really had no idea it was still around, or at least heavily in use.

Swappa is pretty damn handy. I’ve bought and sold several phones on there. Etsy has some really cool stuff, but some of the sellers on there are absolutely delusional. I’ve never checked out Poshmark. I’ll have to check it out some time.

I’m curious - what is the shirt? I’ve got a really cool vintage one with the big yellow ‘M’ and Japanese characters under it that I picked up second-hand almost twenty years ago now. It sadly no longer fits because uhh it totally shrank and I didn’t just gain a little weight.

People still use eBay?

and that’s a non issue nowadays.

Again, this community is delusional lol. If you consider only about 5% of Steam games being Linux-friendly these days as “a non issue nowadays,” I’d hate to see your game library.

ITT: Linux users in denial.

Linux will never be anywhere close to plug and play for anything in the way Windows is, whether we’re talking games, applications, AD, etc… At least not for a very, very long time. Windows has about 40 years of development and is tried and true by the masses worldwide. You don’t have to be a master level 1337 h4xor to do anything in Windows, while you can’t do about 70% of what you can do on Windows with Linux without being an advanced power user.

Linux is great for some stuff, but unless there’s massive upgrades to where you can just hit “install” and something installs and works without fucking around in terminal, it will never see widespread adoption. Hell, half of my users can’t even figure out how to use a goddamn Mac, and that’s much more user friendly than any Linux kernel. You guys are delusional if you think otherwise.

Also, I’ve yet to see a single Linux kernel that is aesthetically pleasing on anywhere near the level of OSX or Windows 11… Or Windows 10… Or hell, 7, 8, and Vista lmao. Looks like a potato OS that was mocked up for some shitty low budget SyFy channel movie. Every single kernel I’ve ever seen. Even the ones that supposedly are “so nice looking bro I swear it looks better than 11 bro please why isn’t anyone switching to Linux don’t you guys want to learn a programming language to play games seriously bro it’s so easy it just works bro broooo.”

People can talk about piracy all they want here it seems. It’s when folks start giving very direct advice about how and where to do stuff that things turn into a legal grey area for websites. It also helps to not blow up a great source by sharing it all over the internet for the feds and ignorant people to easily find.

I’ve been on the internet for a long time. Back in my day, we just referred to the where as “the usual places.” Seems that’s not the norm anymore.

Exactly!

Ask them politely to lower it. If they don’t, you have two options:

A. Leave your seat to go find a security guard, missing part of the show in the process and potentially having this person fuck with you for the rest of the show in retaliation.

B. Rip that shit straight out of their hands and toss it to the lower arena. They’ll have no idea who did it because their view was blocked by their umbrella. Don’t have to miss a second of the show.

It’d be nice if there was a name for something like that.

Synced menstrual cycle?

I have two older brothers. One is an unhinged hypochondriac that’s gets off on fighting with people, and the other is a white supremacist. Haven’t talked to either in about 5 years. I have a brown daughter.

Where is the line between anime and just Japanese cartoons? Is there a difference, or are they interchangeable. I’m not an anime guy either, but Hayao Miyazaki’s films are magical. Have you watched My Neighbor Totoro yet?

Damn, I’m sorry you’ve had that experience with it. It sounds like you got a lemon. I’ve had every other Pixel phone since the first one, and never had any of those issues.

Man, I fucking love that guy and what he’s been doing. Him and my governor, as well as the governor of Michigan have been having a pissing contest to see who can be the best governor, and we’re all winning.

Good. I hate sand.

Is that including Russia?

Don’t listen to the bootlicker below. He’s just spreading propaganda for his corporate overlords.

Yeah, the Samsung phones are such a great value. They only come with about 20 apps you can’t uninstall unless you do some convoluted bullshit, the UI they draw over Android is bloated and slow as hell, and Bixbie is awful. Oh cool, there’s a 200mp camera. Something that only pro photographers care about lol. My Pixel 7 Pro takes phenomenal pictures, too, and isn’t a nightmare to deal with. So much value!

Did you buy the Pixel 7a second hand or something, or through a carrier? The whole point of the Pixel phones is they’re stock Android with zero unnecessary apps pre installed. Your shitty Samsung also has Android, but Samsung puts their own slow, bloated as hell interface over it. Not to mention all of the bloatware pre installed. Stop lying lmao.

Or you could just not buy a phone loaded down with shitty bloatware.

That would be awesome! I’ve got an Ender 6 with a Micro Swiss NG extruder. I was printing decently with the stock hardware, but that stock extruder was a nightmare and kept slipping or completely losing grip on filament mid-print, so I upgraded to this extruder. Now I’m just trying to find that perfect spot to where it extrudes but doesn’t grind filament. I’ve been having some really messy prints.

I just had a feeler gauge arrive in the mail, so I’m about to use that to try leveling the bed more accurately. Everyone says to just use a piece of paper or something, but different paper is different widths haha.

I do have a PEI bed, so stuff sticks and comes off way easier now, but I would love to check out your slicer settings to get a good baseline! What kind of hardware do you have, and which slicer do you use?
