Buy cheap, get garbage. I bought myself a 3-tiered planter for herbs like parsley, chive, and majoram. The instructions had an error, the first step made assembling harder, and the final pieces did not fit. I had to use my bandsaw to make them fit. The wood and pre-drills are also cheap and rough. I was close to return it.

I found the real culprit. It was a blob of PETG in the middle of the heat break. It was too far to be melted properly but close enough to let through a teeny tiny bit. It blocked the filament going through the nozzle at the expected rate. I tried to drill out the blob but I damaged the heat break and some of the threads in the heat block. Could have find it out sooner but the few days ago I couldn't be bothered to fully disassemble the hotend. As soon as the replacement arrives the assembly should be fairly quick. I can reuse the thermistor and heat cartridge. And the over all geometry and screw points should be the same too.

A few days ago one 3d printer almost gone to flames and now the next one stopped extruding, I am done for today troubleshooting that after wasting more than half an hour changing nozzle, the bowden tube, testing for pinch points... I guess it is the extruder stepper motor or the main board stepper driver. Uuugh.... I want a new 3d printer.

@pandaexpress Around that long yeah, glad to hear it came around for you in the end.
I've been pretty well all around. 2017 was kind of a mess but other than that, there have been a lot more upsides than downsides. Some losses sure, but death is unavoidable, all that is within my control ticks under my rythm and that's all that matters to say life is good.
Made a lot of friends, got new certifications and a different job, dropped my ex and had a lot of fun these last 8 years. All I can possibly complain of right now is that the stock market is not as good as I'd wish lol.Emily likes this. -
@pandaexpress much the same. Purpose in life does wonders for a person.

The other day during Steam’s little demo showcase I downloaded a few demos. Today I tried out “Promise Mascot Agency”, a cute little open world mascot management sim/casual collectathon where the bulk of the gameplay is driving around in a Kei truck and talking to sentient mascots. Also the main character, completely by coincidence, is an ex-yakuza voiced by Takaya Kuroda (Kazuma Kiryu).

@zeldatra After the great dissolution finding work is hard. The orphanage needs the money. Also it is funny that the main character is named "Michi". After Suzuki Taichi and Joryu, Kiryu named himself after a mascot.

Yesterday, when I was starting a 3d-printing job, I was wondering why there was a funny plastic-y smell and why it took so long for the heat bed to heat up. A quite toasty surprise https://i.imgur.com/2O2CJsk.jpeg

Watching the anime "KonoSuba". It is certainly degenerate. It is of a question if me watching gives me the same property by the adjacent relation. The MC is overly horny, all the women have huge wobbly bazongas, a woman of the main cast is deriving huge pleasure from being hurt, embarrassed, and all kinds of S&M.

I fell into the bardcore rabbit hole. Great for listening while doing something, especially those tracks without vocals.

Buying tomato seeds from semi-professionals or hobbyists on ebay is such a gamble. About 1/4 of all the seeds did not grow or very delayed.

Looking online for an EDM remix of a particular Sonic track for a scene in a cartoon. Found exactly one. The author has not uploaded since 2017 and left no contact email. FML.

The live-action Lilo & Stitch movie looks like a soulless husk. The actors are fine in the trailer. Everything else is just a huge pile of grape. The youtube comments below the trailer show how much Disney brain rot exist. I am clearly exaggerating but it is close. It will probably be like the other live-action films and milk enough money out of people's wallets to warrant yet another film.
What will be next? Oliver & Co live-action? The Black Cauldron live-action? Song of the South remake/live-action?about 15 days ago from web -
The radiator knob replacement part I 3d printed works. It took me a few attempts as I wasn't thinking it through properly due to assembly issues and needed to work around the fact that I cannot disassemble the knob to get the part into it. Now I have to return the non-working replacement I bought yesterday.

Well... I guess it is easier to 3d print and fix the old knob than to search for a proper replacement. I could change the valve but it is messy and I have no money for the proper handyman to do that for me.

The knob of my heat radiator crumbled away (old plastics) and the replacement I bought doesn't work and doesn't fit. Have to go back to the store tomorrow.

My tomato plants are growing faster than anticipated. Barely one week in the dirt and half of the planted seeds pushed through the surface. Last year it felt it took longer until there was some development.

@nerthos Fruit... Vegetable. I tend to say (jokingly) it is a frugitable. I hope too that they will be growing and do not rot away like last year.
-
@adiwan Have you built a roof or pseudo-greenhouse for them? usually just a transparent nylon cover to prevent rain damage is enough to keep them safe
-
@nerthos Not yet. I have to acquire free trampolines with side-netting for the sole purpose to get the metal tubes to build such a cover. I could buy it ready but due to my bucket solution of a raised bed I'd need 30-40 cm more than purchasable.

7 hours into my 32th birthday I've already caused all sorts of romantic chaos, had my crush hint very overtly that she would like me to fight with her boyfriend over her (won't, she made her choice) and had a drunk gay friend confess to me in an absolutely obsessive, self-destructive and pathological way (which would have been really hot if it was a girl)
It's turning out to be a VERY eventful day and I'm very happy for it.
I joined this place when I was 18 and I'm glad I haven't mellowed out at all in that time. Here's hoping in another 14 years things will be just as crazy still.about 18 days ago from web-
@adiwan Pretty sure I'm not! but it's a funny life for certain and I put in a non-insignificant amount of work into keeping it that way.
Death and illness aren't scary to me, being bored is.

every time I see a Hispanic dude in my store who I had previously seen wearing a Trump hat every single day now no longer wearing one I have to physically hold myself back from asking what happened
