What’s that noise? I’m sure I heard something.

I know it’s not the point of the article but seeing a person in a trench/ditch with no reinforcement and no slope makes me so nervous.
That’s a bad way to go if it collapses.

The more I look at it the more it may not be quite 5 feet requiring it. Here’s hoping so.
Tnut should do the trick. If not you could use the same bolt all the way through for the tensioner but that might be a pain to line up right.
If I recall correctly that hole goes all the way through the extrusion.
Worst case you can use a bolt and nut.
Best upgrades for me was the following in order of overall impact
Klipper
BTT Skr mini e3v3 board
Silicon bed spacers
Klackender mod by KevinAkaSam
G10 build plate
Orbiter extruder and dragonfly hotend for direct drive
Belted Z mod by KevinAkaSam
More recent EBB36 canbus for the tool head mainly because it frees up some ports on the control board for other things like my Nevermore.
For overall quality and reliability the following have the biggest impact.
Ensuring the physical frame is as square as possible. As well as adjusting and shimming things such as folded aluminum foil under the Z extrusions to get them square with the base.
The board and Klipper are huge since it makes it easier to use the klack probe (Klicky for ender) and the silicone spacers allow me to dial in the screws with adjust_screws.
And skew correction because my X gantry is twisted (tested that on granite counter top) and after I’ve done everything else to ensure it’s physically right i still had to work around some of it with software.
Now I can just fire it up and print PLA, ABS (it’s in a grow tent enclosure), PETG and TPU without any issue.
The g10 plate works great with all of them, Klipper can compensate for any warping, build offset as long as the screws are properly adjusted (which I test every couple of months or after I’ve had a print that really didn’t want to come off.
I’m building a trident myself right now and I’m using the “Frankender” to do it with really great quality results.
Thanks for the suggestions. I’ll check them out.
Cat: this is a nice place and I like you. I want to make sure you’re eating.
Here, take this
What a mess… sounds like the devs got burned by various Unicode edge cases RTL, etc
Oof. That sounds horrible
Is it because of the lower case Latin æ since it’s technically one character even if two bytes?
And that’s why Belters shouldn’t cross into gate space while watching a show. Too risky to have the ship go Dutchman because the entities can sense your embarrassment.
Has hissy fit

Sounds like it’s actually using XSLT or some kind of content validation. Which to be honest sounds like a good practice.
Im so excited. That’s why I’m reading through them again.
Then mistborn, warbreaker, etc.
Rereading the Stormlight archive right now after finishing the last book.
Man I wish I could find another book with that energy. Murderbot diaries has some of the serious/comedic aspect but not at the level of DCC. Same for hitchhikers guide. Close, but not quite the same.
It’s not a waste of time… it’s a waste of space. But it does allow you to “enforce” some schema. Which, very few people use that way and so, as a data store using JSON works better.
Or… we could go back to old school records where you store structs with certain defined lengths in a file.
You know what? XML isn’t looking so bad now.
If you want to break the AI ask instead what regex you should use to parse HTML.
Sorry Odette, with your limbs gone you don’t have much of a choice. However, we will have a prime broadcasting spot for you.
What kind of printer is it?
Sounds like they’re running their own LLM instance on googles cloud infrastructure vs using something like OpenAI via API.
As web dev parlance it makes sense but for marketing it is definitely confusing and they should do better.
