I’d agree, but the fact that it’s specifically written that you’re now allowed to call homosexuality a mental illness, for example, seems to me a little more than just “I don’t want to moderate any more”

Glass transition temp of PLA is around 55-60C - that’s when it starts to get malleable. I’d be pretty surprised if the oven knobs get that hot.

I’m gonna guess it wasn’t specifically related, on the sole basis that no government has ever moved that fast about anything, ever

I can never seem to get PETG to print nicely. Occasionally it’ll do a decent job on my Bambu P1S but usually not, and don’t even think about trying to use it on any of my other printers… I’ve even had better luck printing with PC!

Dozens, hundreds, thousands, or potentially even millions of other families… and yet, they don’t.

Not so much go bad but kinda like others have mentioned, moisture in the air will always eventually get soaked into it. It’s worse with other filaments - Nylon, PETG, and ABS are particularly bad for it - but PLA definitely shares the same issues. Moisture from the air also doesn’t just suddenly leave - you need to manually and purposefully dry the filament out with a filament dryer or food dryer. Moist PLA can print just fine, but the moisture can also cause the filament to be super brittle, and/or cause little bubbles or breaks in the filament after it comes out of the nozzle.

Not sure why it would appear to have happened suddenly after a number of years, but I have a suspicion that it probably didn’t happen quite as suddenly as you think it did. Could also be the shape of the roll itself - maybe it’s got little “windows” towards the center of the roll that allowed in more moisture than the closed-off portions and you only just now used the roll up to that point?

I’ve got a bambu and I’ve also got an ender 3v3. The 3v3 in my opinion is more or less a slam dunk. Creality really nailed it on that one. I’ve been printing with it pretty much nonstop since I got it at the end of April and it’s never failed me - it’s much more user friendly than all of the other creality machines I’ve used. That said, bambu is also awesome. My bambu (P1S) never fails prints and is also very, very user friendly - even more so than the creality - but comes at a much higher price point for a large build area. IMHO you really can’t go wrong with the creality - the price for size/convenience is really, really nice. And the open source FW is a plus - you can edit many things (I’ve done so)! But of course YMMV.

What wasn’t included is that neither of the suggestions actually do anything, of course

An HBA (host bus adapter) is a SAS controller (or rather, has a SAS controller chip on it). You mostly just want to make sure that your host (the server) has enough physical PCIe lanes to use the whole card, otherwise you’ll get bottlenecked there. You also want to check whether you’ve got 6G SAS or 12G SAS capability. If your drives only support 6 gig, for example, there’s zero point in buying a 12G SAS card, which is actually nice because 6G cards are a lot cheaper. You do want to make sure you actually need an HBA and not a RAID controller though - they’re easily confused. Not sure if I actually answered anything there but I write SAS firmware and use HBAs all the time, so feel free to ask me more and I’ll try to piece together a coherent answer.

That’s like… a month. Can it take an indefinite break instead?

Why does that remind me of Jerma

Right - but try asking “set an alarm in five minutes” - this used to set an alarm (say it’s 10:00, would set a 10:05 alarm). Now it sets a timer, which of course snoozes differently

Great… now can they finally fix Siri starting timers instead of alarms for anything under an hour? It’s driving me crazy still!

Mental illness and/or corruption, probably (along with a host of other things I’m sure)

My friend frequents goodwill and one time, he came home super excited to show me the Husky mini socket set he bought. He excitedly told me “oh it was only $35!”, assuming he had gotten a great deal… that same socket set was also $35 brand new at Home Depot. It’s almost predatory because people just assume goodwill has better prices. That said… my friend should’ve been smart enough to double check that before buying it, lol
