- Comment on Did Obama Becoming President Make People Hide Their Racism? 1 month ago:
I think you’ve got part of it right from my recollection and experiences, but not quite the full thing. I think Obama’s success actually lead shitty people to lash out more, which brought trump to power, which emboldened those shitty people to stop hiding it and actually be proud and display it. I think the racism and shittiness was always there but people kept a lid on it more. We just aren’t able to pretend it isn’t who we are more broadly anymore.

And not just that, but it’s disingenuous. There’s no real interest here in an answer, it’s just intended to provoke interaction. Even all but the most overt, direct, owning it racists will claim racism is bad, regardless of their own actions and tendencies. Bad post is bad.
- Comment on Is it possible to make my data worthless? 8 months ago:
You basically described the other half of me right here. I waffle back and forth between your view and trying to do something about it. I go back to feeling it’s futile and doesn’t matter anyway, before getting fed up with targeted ads again. Wash, rinse, repeat.
- Comment on Is it possible to make my data worthless? 8 months ago:
This is just my opinion, but I don’t think so. I love the thought and wish there was, though. I think no matter what you do, it’s still information about a potential user/customer and still tells someone looking at it about you. “Oh, we have information on about 4% of the population that wants to actively subvert our data analytics.”. Obviously that’s made up, I didn’t bother trying to even guess what a potentially realistic number might be.
Again, in my opinion, the only way to provide no value to data analytics is to not be a data point, and good luck with that. Best I’ve been trying to do is disable targeted ads anywhere I can, reset my identifier ids regularly on things like android tv where I can, and try to blast cookies anywhere possible. I don’t know if it even makes a difference or just makes me feel better

We’ve done many of the same mods. Klipper, Skr, Sprite pro, crtouch. I did the dual z drive mod too, though I have no idea if that’s actually improved anything or not. Probably now that I’ve setup input shaping and have this thing whipping through prints.

Ok, yeah, forget the paper as far as regular leveling goes with the bl touch. Have you tried confirming your z offset since you changed the nozzle? If you haven’t, it should be fine every time you do something to the hotend.
Also make sure your heat block isn’t stripped out. I had a bitch of a time printing for a while only to discover I had overtightened my middle and stripped out the threads in the heat block. After I replaced it I had consistent good prints again.

Use there a way you can confirm your bed or nozzle temps? I know for the nozzle that’s a really difficult thing to do, it’s so small to be able to check with anything.
I ask because with your unexpected crash the other day from your post history, I wonder if your main board has glitched.
Might be worth trying to reflash your firmware in case the glitch isn’t hardware.
What other mods have you done to your printer besides spring spacers?
When you level the bed, is it manually and with a piece of paper to help gauge the distance?
These things have so many places something can go off that it’s really difficult to help troubleshoot without being there. Hopefully something in this post helps you out.
