My old i3 clone came with a 1mm steel rod I use in these situations. Leave the extruder on your printer, cut the filament off, heat up the extruder to a normal printing temp, and push the gunk through the nozzle. If you have a cold side clog you’re probably going to have to add heat from something like a heat gun.
No problem! I’m glad you were able to get to the bottom of it.
100%. Transitioning from making all decisions for your kids to becoming a trusted advisor is something you need to do intentionally over time. Let your kids make low impact decisions when they’re young. Offer guidance as needed, not all the time. Simple examples include what to have for a meal/snack, where to go for a play date, etc.
100%. I want to loudly point out that you saying ‘jailing poor people not isn’t fiscally responsible and doesn’t benefit society, the money would be better spent giving people a better shot at success’ is a great example of social liberal (make society better) and fiscal conservative (don’t spend money on stupid things).
And building credit is useful to set yourself up for future purchases - a condo/house, car, whatever. The whatever here is bigger than it semese, as having a decent credit score can let you finance all kinds of things at a pretty low rate, if not 0% even today. If you’re saving any extra money in an investment/retirement account, and can pay off your 0% financing offers in full by the time you would start to owe interest, financing at 0% is a great deal even if you have the cash on hand to pay outright.
Using old cards is important - if you don’t use them the issuer might close them. I had that happen with my very first credit card. My next oldest account was something like 5 years newer, which at the time was a pretty big gap because I hadn’t yet reached quasi-old-far status.
There is a whole bunch of regulatory stuff that’s been spun up for EVs over the past 7 years or so.
I have no idea if Hyundai had something out of the ordinary happen, but the public is generally very slow to change and are a bit hyper vigilant. Add in the fact that the press loves a good boogieman to get clicks and you’ll see some of the EV mess.
Are they safer than ICE? Yes. Should that stop there? No.
With an average of 16 EV and hybrid fires per year, there’s a 1 in 38,000 chance of fire. There are a total of roughly 4.4 million gas- and diesel-powered passenger vehicles in Sweden, with an average of 3,384 fires per year, for a 1 in 1,300 chance of fire. That means gas- and diesel-powered passenger vehicles are 29 times more likely to catch fire than EVs and hybrids.
Although much of Tesla’s value recently was from a big jump in November (getting a fancy new oval-shaped office will do that for you)
I don’t think many people realize just how big a jump this was.
If you add position sensors to the servos you shouldn’t need much calibration after the first go, no?
It looks a lot like a typical robotic arm used in manufacturing. A quick Google shows that there are a number of desk mounted versions available, but I have no idea what kind of accuracy they offer. It shouldn’t be that complicated of a design and since most approaches use encoders things like missteps should be a thing of the past.
I can’t see pulling this off at a home user price point without pretty big compromises on positioning accuracy and/or giving up on feedback.
I grew up with the OG winamp and was trying to dissociate with the handle that I’ve been using across the web for 25 years, so…
I suggest something where you get to work with a wide range of the populus. Opportunities are basically all service industry jobs: waiting tables in a restaurant, working retail, working in a hotel, etc. Learning how to interact with wide swaths of humans is an invaluable skill that will serve you well in your future professional career. I would focus on building social and emotional intelligence.
I would strongly suspect a retraction/priming or mechanical related issue give byhe fact that it’s repeatable in the same area of the print.
Has the printer been used recently and put out good prints? Has anything about the setup changed including a slicer update or different slicer?
I have two knee jerk reactions
Is there an under-extruded section of the print, similar to the corner closest to the camera on the lower section of the print, on the top section of the print? You might have a retraction/priming problem. A quick retraction test print would make this pretty obvious.
You might have had a partial clog that resolved itself, but the fact that the extrusion issues change with the topology of the design makes me want to suggest something else. Try the print again. If you get the same outcome filament isn’t the primary cause.
Really? I tend to start late Feb/early March for a somewhat later last frost date. I have decent grow lights so the seedlings don’t really get leggy. Our grown season also isn’t super long, so I figure the older the plants are by the time they get in the ground the better.
Very nice. I’ve started seeds the past three years, but came down with the flu when I was planning on doing it. It looks like I still have a month until our last frost date and that’s probably enough time. Maybe I should stop being lazy.
If you can, get some black plastic over the soil to help get temps up.
I tend to plant early after our last frost, when soil temps are still pretty low, and they plants don’t really seem to care. They just don’t take off that fast, but they do get less leggy.
Steve Oedekerk, the writer/star of King pow: enter the fist, is amazing in every way - especially if you were consuming media in the 90s. He
What’s the error? I had issues trying to upload photos taken on my pixel 3a. They were getting blocked by cloudflare. I traded some messages with an admin and even provided a raw photo. They looked into it, found something, adjusted it, and… still no dice.
I have no issues with my new OnePlus 12. For my 3a, editing the photos in any app, even just to very slightly crop them, would remove whatever was going on.
Odds are your phone has a modern connector so this isn’t necessary. I replaced my pixel 3a, which I bought in September 2019, last December. Thanks to wired phone projection, I cycled its USB-C connector twice a day for 5 years and 3 months. That’s ~4,000 cycles. The connector specification calls for a 10,000 cycle lifetime.
I did have to de-lint the connector from time to time, but other than that I had no issues.
Not to say that you shouldn’t use inductive charging of course :)
