Printed a sun visor extension out of PLA in my early days of printing. Had to run out to my car at like noon to grab something and it was deformed and droopy and could be reshaped as easily as a piece of leather… I learned a lesson that day, lol.
I printed a test piece (something much smaller) out of PETG to see if that would handle it. It would not, also got soft and sloppy after a couple of hours in the car.
Get whatever printer fits your budget and needs. You don’t have to have a prusa printer to use prusa slicer, and even if you don’t want to use prusa slicer; Cura, super slicer, and orca slicer all work on Linux natively as well. You shouldn’t have a problem with slicing software at all.
Also, as a tip, whatever printer you buy probably comes with an installer for a proprietary fork of (an old version of) one of the main slicers. Skip it. Go download Cura or prusa slicer and there will likely be profiles available during initial setup for your exact printer. Definitely if you stick to the bigger, well-known brands.
Fuckin’ all of them.
“And then you can start imagining what would happen if companies start abusing this, like Microsoft and/or Apple paying to make sure only their OSes load by default.”
I’m convinced that this is definitely the end goal for Microsoft, especially with the windows 11 TPM requirement. We are in the early stages of their plan to mold the PC ecosystem to be more like mobile. This is the biggest reason I decided to move to Linux - it’s now or never in my opinion.
Yea, they probably have that one guy still there from the days creation engine was made that is required to be on staff for any future games to fix whatever archaic code they break. Get him on board with the union and Bethesda is probably held by the short hairs to do whatever they say.
This is so true. I had to learn to be patient with games a long time ago. It saved me a ton of headache with the Helldivers 2 fiasco. I’m still a little sad about it, it looked like a great game. Too bad Sony came out and solidified themselves as a company I won’t do business with…
Not an expert but I’ve been very happy with my synology wifi router, plenty of range for my house. I’ve had good luck in the past with ubiquiti access points for an application that needs to cover more square footage.
Ah yea it does. Can you repost that, but slower…?
I thought about this too but disagree that this was the turning point. It was the first sign (I can recall) of what publishers wanted games to be, but the backlash they got was harsh. They postponed the full roll-out and came at the problem from a new direction.
I think the big turning point was Farmville and shit like it on Facebook, which led to mobile games full of microtransactional shit-storms just like it once smartphones became more common.
They used mobile gaming as a way to indoctrinate the masses that it’s okay to monetize the hell out of a game, and slowly migrated this idea to PC via free-to-play games at first. Then bit by bit they took small, methodical steps toward transforming the games industry into the micro transaction hell-scape we know today.
Ah, gotcha. Thanks!

A good Tribes game is not in the cards right now. Players should try harder to be entertained.
(this is a play on a quote from the admins of an old Hi-Rez game called Global Agenda. During the nightly clan vs clan competitive “global map” window, the game was broken, matches wouldn’t load or crash part-way through. Players submitted a ton of tickets, and some of them were not constructive and just said “Fix the game”. Admins got butt-hurt and spammed the entire player-base with “Fixing the game is not in the cards right now. Players should try harder to win.”… I am still very salty about that…)
Edit: Oddly enough, this was right after they launched Tribes: Ascend, just to bring the leap of context full circle.
They’ll probably come to the “logical conclusion” that storing the data locally on the machine poses “too much risk” and just move the storage to their servers “for your safety”…
People have the ability to block communities as they see fit individually and also follow whatever communities they want and only browse their subscribed list. (steering wheel)
But when popular communities are on an instance that is very much “get on board or get out” to the point they ban users from every community on their instance for having differing political views, it is very much reasonable to try to start or promote communities run on different instances controlled by better admins. (where the roads go (ok, so building roads is a bad analogy, it is more like when a place has terrible sidewalks so people walk through the grass and they wear in those little dirt-path short cuts and eventually no one uses the sidewalks))
You’re thinking of Quasimodo. He’s talking about a TV program where they ask contestants trivia.
Yes. Unfortunately. “a virus? How did I get that? What’s an anti-virus? You must be wrong, I just do a little bit of web browsing and downloading music.” (this was in the windows xp days that I’m specifically flashing back to)
