but it does not explain the weird burn mark of my initial failed print.

I guessing that when it was falling over, part it got taller. (Think of a 199 cm tall cabinet in a 200 cm room. It can’t fall over, it will hit the ceiling.)

As it got taller, the nozzle could dig in.

As the nozzle got embedded in the plastic, the heat would melt some plastic, and the dirt would stock to the warm molten sticky platic.

Yes to both.

If the first layer is good, this looks like some sort of over-extrusion.

How many layers up is this? The more solid layers, the less overextrusion it takes to get this pattern.

And yes, it’s normal to have it in areas like this, with no good explanation of why it’s a problem “there”, and not “there”.

A good closeup would help diagnose this. Maybe even a nice closeup video of how it looks while it’s printing. When I get these results, it’s very clearly overextrusion, when I look closer.

If it is overextrusion, there are many solutions, each with different side-effects. You can consider doing an extension rate calibritation, with the exact filament roll you are using. Or maybe simply adjust the extrusion rate down a little bit.

Yes, this advice seems out of date now.

Maybe your lock screen has an ICE function, otherwise just put it on your lock screen as plain text.

In some areas, almost everything is private property. Including sidewalks, parks, beaches…

I was in a city that only had one green area that was publicly accessible. The was signs that you weren’t allowed to be on the grass, only the paths. So you could pretty much only walk through. Even just standing, you’d be in the way.

I get that the property owner sets the rules, but if everything is private, it gets hard to exist.

Hetzner works very well for me.

So it’s free because it’s already yours?

Yeah, here the main certificate is digital, and it’s with the government.

Why would they ask for my birth certificate - they already have it.

Can you spare a dollar? I need a beer.

Exactly, it’s not related to me at all.

there’s a whole class of street beggars pretending to look needy

Yep, in some areas that can actually give a middle class income.

Imagine working hard on a low income job, but you make enough to “fit in”. You have a house, you have a car, your kids can join class trips.

Then there’s a beggar that’s making more than you, but doesn’t have any kids. They have a better house, a better car, and goes to Thailand for two weeks every year.

In streets, they are talking to random strangers. Like I’m going to the grocery store, on the way there someone asks for money because they want money.

Online, they are usually begging their fans, or at least people who is showing some sort of interest. Like I’m watching a YouTube video, and the creator is asking for a donation, as a volunteer payment for their effort.

Oatmeal. I can see some yellow tint, but that is all I notice.

I add 1 egg to one portion.

…and people called all of those “deception” when they were new.

The question is how to deal with it. Regulation? Learn how to recognize it?

Another fiction to look at could be Star Trek. Pretty much everything materialistic is free. You study and work not to afford your materialistic needs and wants, but for the joy of doing it.

And people do build careers and business, for the joy and the achievement of it.

… just to contrast your idea of badic income meaning barely surviving.

Honestly, I think it would be healthy for you to study just a little bit about what it’s like to be poor and unprivileged. If nothing else, it should make you feel more lucky in life, and make you appreciate what you have more.

First, about a third of the world population doesn’t have access to internet at all.

Second, what do you think a person can do with internet, when their intire life is about getting enough food to survive? And how would an education even help, if you have no chance of ever getting a job or starting a business bigger than selling water and snacks to people stuck in traffic near your bridge?

If you have never been so physically and mentally used, and so far down, and so out of options that the only way of of the missery is substance abuse, you are lucky.

If you are so far away from all of this, that you are unaware of its existence, you are very lucky.

Lots of people don’t have access to any of the information sources you had, or the ability to take any of the options you did.

You had plenty of good options, and you chose from those. Some people only have bad options. They pick bad options, because that’s all they have.

My experience and all the people I’ve spoken to throughout my life.

That only shows that SOME of the people who somehow relates to you, have options.

Have you ever wondered why they don’t take those options? You might have missed something that prevents them.

Or maybe better: Have you wondered about the people further away from you? I can guarantee you, millions of people literally don’t have any good options. If you haven’t met any, that only means you have met any.

We live in a society with a lot of equality almost anyone smart enough can work hard enough to get themselves out of almost any situation.

That really depends on where you live, your health and possibly several points about your parents. Millions and millions of people never get a chance to grab, never get an opportunity to pursue.

It is entirely within your choice to live under a bridge.

Lots of people don’t have any better options than to live under a bridge, despite being in an area where that is illegal and not a real option.

Actually, just go to the library. Depending on where you live, you’ll not just find all kinds of books, there may also be audio book, board games, console games, game consoles and computers you can just use.

There might comfortable furniture and coffee, you can go there just for the mood or the peace.

Got kids? There might be a whole section just for kids. It may include toys or even a play-area.

There might a whole wall of post from people who wants your attention on something. There’s probably a few about free activities you could join.

Yes, sometimes I need to be patient, even if I already know the rest. I try.

Other times people need to FINISH THEIR SENTENCE BEFORE I RETIRE!!!

You really want me to hear all of it? Then be more interesting, or at least faster! This is not always on me!

…as long as y’all use GenAI incorrectly.

It has it’s uses i programming. Doing all the coding for you is not one of them.
