  • Someone who occasionally makes me feel special. It’d be nice to feel special all the time, but I think that’s unrealistic. It’d be nice if I could feel special or important on a semi regular basis. Not just useful, like a wrench is useful, but treasured.

    The older I get, the more I understand the “lone old man and his dog” stereotype. The dog thinks you’re great and everyone else just sees you like a machine that is disposable when they’re done with you.
















  • I’ve also been through at least several primary care physicians because the ones I have seen are so short and don’t really take time to get to know you at all. They just pop in, ask you a handful of questions and leave, if your test results come back with anything abnormal, they say it’s nothing to worry about, they don’t want to take any extra time to help look into anything or diagnose you… like wtf?

    Because we’re not people to them. They’re incentivized to treat us like cars. Repair as fast and as many as you can to get the most money.


  • Did you follow some guide when replacing the nozzle and bowden tube?

    No, it’s pretty intuitive so I just did it.

    Did you hot tighten it when putting them back?

    Yep.

    What speed are you printing at, which you think is too slow? What’s your acceleration?

    I was printing a speed test, the inbuilt one from Orca Slicer. Starts with a huge, slow brim, then low speed 10 layers, then slightly faster 10 layers, repeat until it fails.
