  Let the bed cool down all the way, ya little gremlin! If you absolutely can’t wait, put the bed on a tile floor and your print should pop off on it’s own pretty quick.

  Plastic deformation point, elastic deformation point, yield point, ultimate strength, and failure point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No going back⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Everything past the dotted line is the point where the material won’t go back to its original shape.
  Example: You can push on the hood of your car all you want, it’ll flex, and go back to its original shape (elastic deformation); but stand on it, and it’ll dent (plastic deformation).

  They’re snorting the gas off of cans of whipped cream.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your go-to "Bang for your Buck" filament brand?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been using Creality’s hyper PLA. It’s pretty good quality and my printer/slicer combo has presets that are 95% what I want (I tweak the print and bed temps as needed). I’m using an Ender 3 V3 KE for reference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chonky nozzel + decent amount of material = opportunity for lots of spaghetti⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m definitely going to try the retraction speed (instead of distance) and no z-hop in the morning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chonky nozzel + decent amount of material = opportunity for lots of spaghetti⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Still try the higher temp, but bump up your retraction to counteract that. I went with the same move for printing silk to get cleaner layers, and it’s worked out really well.

  It’s really unfortunate. Native Instruments seems to almost refuse to support Linux.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My current full-stop is lack of support for a lot of peripherals, particularly music equipment.

  Please drink verification can.

  Turns out the FAA is that corner

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon's drone delivery program is the joke it always sounded like.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re using a very dated design because the FAA moves extremely slowly. The size, weight, and wide-scale intended use of them puts the drones in an aircraft category that comes with a lot of paperwork and stipulations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Makes Heavy Metal ‘Heavy’?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Overdrive filters and leaving the EQ knobs alone so everything gets muddy.
  That’s pretty much it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do poor people in the states give birth without money?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Most of those higher prices come from insurance companies only paying a percentage of what they are billed, and the cost of the staff involved with dealing with those companies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some challenges buggy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The challenge only requires a successful attack, not a kill. Try using a rifle. Chances are, the stealth detection is bugging out and they are detecting you at the last second. A sneak attack bonus message should appear in the corner of your screen.

  I managed to stack up several sneak attacks with melee by EM blasting a squad, and then going around crouch-stabbing them.

  If none of these work, then I’m not sure. Hopefully the unofficial community patch fixes it, or gets updated soon.

  Or go in with a lot of money you’re willing to lose for no guaranteed payout

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨VR still makes 40-70% of players want to throw up, and that's a huge problem for the companies behind it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  HTC, Valve, and Oculus (well before the Facebook buyout) established very early on that frame rates of 90 fps or higher with a response time of <1 ms were critical factors for preventing motion sickness. Meta either hasn’t gotten the memo or just doesn’t care.

  Even with well-established VR legs, I start feeling unpleasant if my FPS starts dropping below 75 for extended periods of time.

  Aside from that, it’s also down to game development. I’ve been seeing newer, inexperienced VR developers creating scenes that don’t take into consideration how our brains perceive motion; and they end up creating some nausea-inducing scenes or game mechanics, in addition to doing things like shoving your head onto the floor or through an object. The easiest example is pressing into a wall or table, and the colliders shove your head and body back when you’re not expecting it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve: don’t expect a faster Steam Deck ‘in the next couple of years’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  On the plus side, you can use any Bluetooth or USB compatible controller and a cheap stand to make your experience more comfortable. Steam’s controller support is fantastic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oh no. OH NO.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Same aisle as the dolphin jelly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can dance the Macarena to other songs besides the Macarena.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The dance is 16 beats, so it will technically work for almost any song with a 4/4 time signature. Numa numa, CBAT, Never Gonna Give You Up, Axel F, Do It To It, Get Schwifty; and the list could go on for ages. It’s the most common time signature out there.
