Maybe everybody else has been doing this all along, but I often find myself just using the default settings (which in Bambu Slicer is 2 shell layers, and I think it's also 2 in Cura) along with a bunch of infill that doesn't do much for it structurally. I wouldn't necessarily use these settings for anything load-bearing, but...
A VEGAN influencer is feared to have died of starvation after attempting to live on a fruit only diet. Zhanna Samsonova, 39, previously told how she spent four years eating and drinking just fruits…
Any vegan with half a brain knows that you need more than just fruit to be healthy. Assuming her death by infection is a result of her diet (which is possible, but we don't know that), she died of being an idiot, not a vegan.
I know a lot of people want to interpret copyright law so that allowing a machine to learn concepts from a copyrighted work is copyright infringement, but I think what people will need to consider is that all that's going to do is keep AI out of the hands of regular people and place it specifically in the hands of people and...
I'm not sure what you're getting at with this. It will only be a privilege for these groups of we choose to artificially make it that way. And why would you want to do that?
Do you want to give AI exclusively to the rich? If so, why?
I've been having some difficulty underextrusion on my new all-metal hotend. I've set my retraction distance to 1.5mm (1.0 leaves strings), but on regular PLA I'm getting occasional layers that don't print very well (particularly if there's a lot of stopping and starting), and glitter PLA is an absolute disaster....
@ernest how do I report a Magazin on kbin.social ? There is a usere called "ps" who is posting to his own "antiwoke" Magazin on kbin.social.

I don't want kbin to be a far-leftist echo chamber. I also don't want kbin to be a far-right echo chamber. I think it's perfectly reasonable to want to protect a community from extreme and hateful views, regardless of which side they come from, because those views tend to attract the type of horrible, toxic people such as yourself who advocate beating the shit out of people for being different in a harmless way.
Welcome to the real world, where people who are different from you exist and mind their own business. If you can't put up with people who don't affect you in any way, I don't think the rest of us owe it to you to put up with you, either. Go find a cesspit to wallow in.
Reddit used to be a great platform to discuss some topic and get different points of few in a friendly but factual manner. However, slowly it seems like the platform has become a lot more like Facebook, where it's been invaded by toxic people that are constantly looking for opportunities to shit and hate on others....
Reddit's far left can be pretty toxic too. As an old liberal myself, I don't believe that there are any good kinds of hate or discrimination, but if you argue against that kind of crap, the absolute worst people come out to defend it. A good chunk of my negative interactions have been with those people.
That being said, the Eternal September is real. I don't know anyone in real life who actually thinks like that. The trouble is, if you have ten million users, a tenth of a percent of them could be assholes and that's still 10,000 obnoxious assholes.
I could do without communities whose primary purpose it is to dump on other groups of people. That means the manosphere and far right subs, but it also means thinks like the various circlejerks and mendrawingwomen. Those kinds of places just serve as echo chambers for rage, and if communities like that start getting popular I'll start a server myself and filter them out for people who don't want to be exposed to it.
Hidden up/downvote names (I understand the concern about the info being scraped by advertisers, but it should stay visible at least to the person who left the comment and the magazine moderators)
Reddit has been crappy for years now, and a lot of people have wanted to leave but didn't have anywhere to go. Now that there's somewhere else, people will continue to trickle out as they get tired of it. It doesn't need to all happen at once -- in fact, reddit doesn't need to shut down. It just needs viable alternatives with a critical community mass, and we're there now.
I'm 25 and I don't have a drivers license. I mean, I've never really felt the need to go and get one. Public transport is usually the fastest option where I live, and it takes a lot less responsibility to use it....
I mean, honestly, this sounds like a good thing, because the system works. Isn't it kind of the point of the fediverse that if you don't like someone else's rules, you can do your own thing? They aren't beholden to your rules, and you aren't beholden to theirs either. That sounds to me like a great system where no one group of people or opinions can exert control over everyone else.
I always thought it was a pretty smart idea on Reddit's side to have the posts and comments be automatically upvoted by their author, saving them the tough choice between playing fair or boosting their initial reach a little; and if you had particularly low self-esteem, this enabled you to reduce your own points by not one, but...
I also prefer having a combined "score" rather than different scores for upvotes and downvotes.
I don't. A post that's been voted 100 times and down 95 times is completely different from a post that's been upvoted 5 times and not downvoted at all. That's good information to have, both as a poster and a reader.
Also, enough people use downvotes as an "I disagree" button that I don't think they ought to be counted (or should be counted minimally) when determining what content rises to the top, or we'll end up with another echo chamber.
Reddit is going to go into a slow decline. It's not going to burn down.
What this is actually doing is allowing other general discussion sites to reach critical mass so that people who are sick of reddit but couldn't find anywhere else to go (such as myself) have a choice.
Reddit is like the Wal Mart of internet discussion forums. Some people shop at Wal Mart because they want to, and some people shop there because they drove all the other stores out of business and they're the only place left.
What will ultimately hurt reddit is the existence of viable alternatives.
I know people are of differing opinions on this and a lot of people are sad to see reddit go out like this, but I've personally wanted to dump reddit for like a decade now, but there just wasn't anywhere to go. Even if it recovers completely, people who are disillusioned will have options now.
If you're printing display pieces in PLA, I find that using 4 outer shell layers plus lightning infill will give you much sturdier models that are easier to remove supports from without breaking, and use a lot less filament than standard settings.
