Only took them 14 years, lol

They have an account their parents can see and private accounts

Something is stopping the extruder from extruding and the “fraying” is just little oozes of filament catching on the layers below.

It could be mechanical, but if it is always at the same exact layer it is may be something to do with the geometry and the slicer.

Make sure you have thin wall detection on, so it will fully print walls that are narrower than the extrusion width.

Turning retractions off might help. I’ve never worked with LW-PLA but it could be that those internal pillars getting farther from the shell are causing a retraction that jams the extruder.

Others mentioned feed, make sure your spool is not catching on the spindle. I had this issue with a roll of TPU that was too wide and it kept getting pinned when I closed the filament door. It would print fine until the tension was too much for the extruder. Then it would look exactly like this.

Here’s my quick timer shortcut I built to keep on my Home Screen. Maybe it will be helpful to someone.

Edit: forgot to link the shortcut 😂

Prep Bags: I keep a bag for each activity i regularly engage in (work, theatre, choir, social clubs) and it holds my accoutrements for that thing. When I remember i need to bring something to the next meeting/rehearsal/whatever. I drop it in the bag. If I am doing a one off activity, I’ll start a bag a day or few ahead of time.

Small things have homes: Car/house keys live on key hook, other dailies live in bowls near my bed.

Multiples of things: I keep separate charge cables each for home, work, and car. I keep an extra, hairbrush and hair ties at work. My old earbuds live at work in case I forget to put my new ones in my work bag when i am done with them.

I go by: when you remember it, do it. If you can’t do it now, mark it down in an appropriate manner: list, alarm, calendar, note, whatever. If you can’t be bothered to mark it down, it’s not important.

I keep a calander widget on my phone homescreen that shows my upcoming events.

99% invisible did an episode on the rise and fall of the laugh track

Edit: whoops, I guess it was featured episode of decoder ring

I don’t know whether it’s available in Germany but the Oreck XL is a reliable bagged upright. No fancy tubes or attachments. No adjusting for carpet height or bare floors. Just a simple straightforward light, reliable vacuum.

My folks have had one for years, they have a dog. My sibling got one that had been used daily in a small business for years, works great for their pets. I picked one up at an estate sale, replaced the brush roller and it works like new. We have a long haired cat that leaves tumbleweeds in its wake.

Lol. I think they claimed that Settings was going to replace Control Panel when Windows 8 came out. It’s been 12 years. 😂

It’s long overdue for MS to shit or get off the pot. Either allocate some resources to this pet project or give up the pretense that it is ever going to happen.

nobody actually pays those bills. They’re just some elaborate dance between insurance companies and hospitals.

Sometimes there is an elaborate dance between the two on pricing. Sometimes the insurance company dances on its own to determine why the service is not covered.

If you don’t have insurance, the cost is lower

Depends what you mean by cost. insurance is always out to make money, that means paying less, and negotiating lower prices with providers. However, there are some situations where it benefits both the service provider and the insurance provider to inflate the initial price, and negotiate a steep “discount” to a final price (a portion of which the patient pays) that is higher than the non-insurance price. But I don’t remember the exact details, and I may be conflating this with some other healthcare industry scheme.

or removed entirely. Supposedly.

If a hospital is nonprofit, I believe they are required to have a (self determined) charity care policy that they must follow. If you make below a certain amount, you can apply for relief, but that also applies for to after-insurance costs, not just no-insurance costs. For-profit hospitals will rake you over the coals and send collections after you. Part of the problem with charity care, is that you may have to ask for it, and few people know enough about it to do so. And you may have to ask for it in the right way. If you aren’t specific enough, they may offer you “financial assistance” which is just a payment plan. Then they’ll treat you the same as a for-profit hospital would.

If you’re interested in a deeper dive, the Arm and a Leg podcast is a great show about healthcare costs in the US.

Well, when he realized the seats don’t recline as far back as he thought…

I bet Austin is having a blast with this shenanigans.

Not an item, but our DM let a player dissolve a mundane door lock with the acid splash cantrip

Does it affect me negatively? sure. Does it affect me on a personal level? Absolutely not. I guess I view it with a kind of sad condescension, like: “I’m sorry society is so fucked up that you feel it necessary to lash out like that. I’m trying my best, but I’m only one man.” Now that I think about it, I’m not sure what the says about my engagement with system. I’m going to have to ruminate on that…

Down with the patriarchy!
