Is that petg? For some reason I usually have problems with petg and infill patterns that cross over itself so I usually switch to gyroid. I think it has something to do with the speed and flow and the properties of the filament that make it especially bad when the infill lines cross over itself. You can probably tune temps, speeds, and feeds to get it to work but I find it easier to just not use that infill pattern.

At least with radicle all the forks will still exist even if the authoritative copy is taken down. And even then I think because radicle is like BitTorrent, anybody who pinned the main repo would still be seeding it so it would be very hard to scrub it completely. The main challenge in using radicle is getting an active contributor with some reputation to maintain their copy on there. Otherwise there's no momentum and nobody will pin the countless mirrors published by randos.

Either that or charging a micro transaction for loading the page. But yeah the goal is to make it cost a small amount that is insignificant to a regular user but adds up to a huge amount at the scale of a spam farm. And it's also the same rationale behind hashing passwords with multiple rounds. It adds a tiny lag when you log in correctly but adds an insane amount of work if you're checking every phrase in a password cracking dictionary using an offline attack because it adds up. (In the online scenario you just block them after a few attempts)

They seem to just keep getting better and better. When I scratched the lens on my index due to my own carelessness they replaced the headset for free. It's been 5 years since I bought it and the controller strap broke last week and they sent me a free replacement. Any other company and I would have expected my only option to be buying a new controller.

It's from the Onion! The artist is Ward Sutton but he's drawing the comics from the point of view of a character named "Kelly" who is a parody of an old right wing guy (according to the Internet) who hates political correctness, hence the exaggerated scenarios in the comics. The "haha yes" sickos guy (who I guess sometimes shows up in a thought bubble) usually feels like a parody of how the right views various left wing policies in that the comic overplays / exaggerates the disastrous effects of said policies (to make fun of how absurd those fears are) while the "leftist sickos" cheer on the disastrous results.

The comics basically make fun of how extremely the right views progressive policy and the sickos guy is kind of pointing out how absurd it is to view someone as bad faith (ie a sicko knowingly cheering on the disastrous effects of a progressive policy) who supports something as simple as green energy, drug legalization, or bike lanes. It's fun to use as a reaction image to anything progressive happening because obviously wanting something like for example affordable healthcare obviously doesn't make you a sicko. (Or in this case wanting a terrible person to actually face actual legal consequences for the harm they've done)

Things around me aren't that far per se, but you have to cross a 45mph road (where people regularly drive 55-60 because it's designed like a highway) along several sections of unconnected sidewalk if you want to get there without a car. The sidewalks are 4ft wide at most and have no separation from the car lanes so you have to walk with cars whizzing by just a couple feet from you. There's also no shade.

For reference - it takes 5 minutes to drive to the nearest grocery store 1 mile away, but walking it's 31 minutes with the unpleasant conditions I mentioned. So I've never walked there. I could bike and it would take 10 minutes, but biking along cars at 50mph doesn't sound fun. I also live on a bike path, but it doesn't go to the nearest grocery store so the nearest one along the bike path would take the same amount of time as if I walked to the nearest one (25 minutes). That one is 3.5 miles (11min) by car or a 1hr walk.

Well, apparently lots of people here who are familiar with ripping and burning CDs found it confusing - so I don't think it's dumb to point out the confusing wording, especially to clarify for those who don't know that burning means writing and ripping means reading. I at least initially recoiled in horror at the thought of burning data onto the rare find.

The least they could do is say that they burned a copy/blank or ripped the original instead of mixing it up and saying that the original was burned. It makes it sound like they were writing to the original.

Does the other iOS user have 18? I'm the 1 android user in a 3 person group chat and I'm wondering if I should try to get one of them to update.

Hah I wish we could ignore them. It seems to just vary from ISP to ISP in the US but our small town ISP turns off your connection and puts you behind a captive portal forcing you to click through and accept what you did wrong before your connection is turned back on.

Yes I do this. Same exact library folders so I can let my friends use whatever they prefer. If everything is named in a Plex friendly way it should just work in jellyfin.
