Apparently: Them playing our local city square, doing a terrible performance, acting like prima donnas, and then after inviting people to come see them at the merch booth after the show, then never showing up.

It's the lead that makes it slightly sweet.

I've been using it on Ubuntu 22.04 for almost 2 years. It started off rocky, with frequent restarts needed, maybe every week or two. It's been pretty solid, though I did give up on using it for screen sharing and captures, which is unfortunate timing in today's WFH world.

"thumbscrew" is the search term you are looking for. 6-32 sounds right. https://a.co/d/9AvShgu

You say that, but after my last set of tuning my E3 Pro is a real workhorse! Give it another 4 years like I did. May also help to threaten it with replacement if it fs up ONE MORE TIME...

I've watched it on YouTube, it's pretty good. It starts "this is an impersonation of George Carlin". Wonder if a court ruling would prevent human impersonation.

Last weekend I used https://github.com/linsomniac/spotify_to_ytmusic to copy my Spotify playlists over to YouTube Music, and the shuffle play is SOOO much nicer there! That was my primary gripe with Spotify, the shuffle play is idiotic

I totally would have bought into the air frier ecosystem earlier if I'd have known I'd be calling it my wife's easy bake oven.

2023, the year July never ended?

I live in Colorado which is pretty dry, so I don't have too many problems with wet filament, or at least the problems I have are a much smaller vector than others seem to have. I always try to store my filament in a bag with the drying packet, but I usually don't even really close it that well. But I'll also just leave filament on my printer for weeks between uses. I always feel like some of the difficulties I have might go away if I was more fastidious about filament, but I seem to do good enough.

But, I've also done all sorts of upgrades to try to get more reliable, without really being good about keeping my filament happy. Upgrades: Sprite hotend, CRTouch, upgraded steppers (went through a bout of really bad layer shift I couldn't track to anything else, and the steppers fixed it), Klipper, upgraded mobo.

 

I have a heavily modified Ender 3 Pro, and have had good and bad times with the buildtac bed (I've replaced many times). I've tried some PEI beds and had mixed results, but I got this one 2-3 months ago and over ~20 prints it's been just fantastic.

Amazon link, but not affiliate. Posting because the previous PEI build plate I got was the worst thing ever.
