Grummz is a terrible human being and should never be paid attention to.

The lede is buried at the end.

The problem is how the debts got there in the first place—in pursuit of growth for its own sake, of increased output with no clear needs that the new output would address.

But the protests made it clear that letting moderators make their communities private at their discretion “could be used to harm Reddit at scale” and that work on this feature was “accelerated” because of the protests.

Because Reddit admins deserved that harm. We’ve handed them all this free data and resource and they decided it was theirs.

I assumed it was just a branding change. Was it something more than that?

Lol, that makes sense. They have completely different philosophies on business. Morhaime was gaming first, Kotick was greed first.

FTA:

According to Schreier, the problems began immediately after Activision purchased Blizzard in 2007.

That makes sense. I’ve been in companies that changed owners. The change starts when the new people walk in, but it takes time to “turn the ship” so to speak. It will turn, but it takes time. The corruption is slow, boiling-frog style.

I’m enjoying it so far. Only played a couple of missions but it’s back to being fun.

Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s requiem. It’s an older game, GameCube era. I don’t like horror games and this one isn’t true horror. There are some good jump scares and body horror though. I had to stop after a certain scene because of the jump scares. The sanity system is really great.

Good for them. Staying shows abusers what they can get away with.

Did you follow some guide when replacing the nozzle and bowden tube?

No, it’s pretty intuitive so I just did it.

Did you hot tighten it when putting them back?

Yep.

What speed are you printing at, which you think is too slow? What’s your acceleration?

I was printing a speed test, the inbuilt one from Orca Slicer. Starts with a huge, slow brim, then low speed 10 layers, then slightly faster 10 layers, repeat until it fails.

You say you think you’re having heatcreep issues, what exactly are the issues you’re having?

there’s a swelling of the filament, about 1" tall, above the hot end.

Related - I’ve replaced the PTFE tube with a higher quality one and I’ve replaced the nozzle (it was indeed clogged).

One time I commented that my favorite game was WoW, down voted -15 for no apparent reason.

I wouldn’t use that as evidence that you were bot-attacked. A lot of people don’t like WoW and are mad at it for disappointing them. *coughSHADOWLANDScough*

Oh what? It’s not the original devs? Fucking hell. No wonder it sucks.

Disagree. You’re right that it’s very flat, but it’s not 2d. It’s got thickness to it. Additionally, not a waste as it’s awesome. Disagree that a poster would look better. Also, I couldn’t make a poster but I could make this. Also, you could customize the colors if you wanted.

I’m not paying more money to get no-breakfast, and have to do chores, and have a 15% chance of crazy owner, and a non-zero chance of it being a scam, and have AirBNB corporate give me the run around.

oooooh, I loved 3. This could be good.

Kinda weird to have an opinion on the current state of a game that died for you 13 years ago lol

Nah, I get it. There are some games I want to play because I want that feeling, but I know I can’t. Every game experience is a product of you, that time/context, and the game itself. When all 3 of those align, it’s PERFECT, and I crave that. For me, WoW hit that in 1 raid where all my friends played and the game was a good state.

do damage, take damage or deal the damage

You’re right that the holy trinity is kinda stale, but I’ve yet to see a better way to do it. Also, even tho it’s stale, I don’t mind it.
