The live and neutral ports commonly lack the shutter and the fuse is not always present (edit: on low power devices). Some devices for whatever reason also feature a plastic earth prong which serves only to release the shutters to allow a connection. And if the earth is not present or is broken then the plug will sit loose in the socket. Another “feature” of these plugs is that they lay flat on a surface and hurt to step on.
Otherwise they serve their purpose really well.
My party?? Uuh yeah… I have a plan.
What a stupid name. Until I saw “Jeremy Corbyn” at the end of the title I had no idea what they were talking about.
Fact: ~93% of all people who drank water have died. The 7% remain an anomaly, either immune to this curse or have not yet succumbed to the poison.
That’s how it works yeah. The problem is measuring that distance is really hard to do, especially consistently. They used to advise putting some paper between the bed and the head but I never could do it right.
I’m certain this is one of the biggest problems I’ve had. I do have a touch sensor and custom firmware to accommodate it but I still couldn’t get it working. I might try a new bed also to see if that helps. A new printer, even a cheap one, is definitely out of the question right now unfortunately.
Oh I understand now thanks for explaining. Yes this has been a consistent issue that I’ve had. I’m really having trouble making the levels consistent across the bed.
Thanks for replying. It gives me hope that I might be able to make something of this.
I have a bl auto leveller attachment. It didn’t work because I couldn’t attach it when the bracket it came with didn’t fit my printer. So I was reliant on printing one with a printer that didn’t work. I kinda just ended up zip tying it to the printer head and hoping for the best but to be honest I don’t understand how it works or how to use it.
I do really need to replace the bed on it. It’s in poor condition and it’s still the same bed that it came with 6 years ago. I’ve heard glass is great and adhesion definitely is an issue I keep having.
As for that last one I don’t know how I’d check the extrusion rate. I know it isn’t physically broken because I’ve pulled it apart several times and nothing looks cracked or broken internally.
Thanks for responding.
I think the biggest issue I ever had was being unable to accurately level the z axis evenly across the whole bed. It uses four of these frustrating little metal circles each located on a corner of the bed you have to twist that give no real measure to how much you’re turning them at all. I’m attaching a picture of them with this comment. It’s the round part attached to a spring.
I did check the temps and adjusted them at times based on the filament manufacturers suggestions and online comments. That only really was a problem when the nozzle clogged because it wasn’t getting hot enough.
I wouldn’t know how to measure the steppers but I know the temps are quite accurate from measuring them externally.
I’m not sure what you mean by the heat bed needing to be level relative to the X and Y.
Thank you for responding. I had a feeling that would be the case.
Can I ask what it is about the older models that make them so difficult for beginners compared to new models?
It’s too late, go on without me. Save yourselves!
It is a constant battle blocking anime communities that post nsfw and just generally (in my opinion) depraved content, even here on Lemmy. I can’t go 5 seconds without seeing extremely sexualised content of extremely proportioned anime girls. And as if that weren’t bad enough a lot of them appear to blur the line of underrage content which is just disgusting. I really wish this wasn’t so prevalent, or better yet, nonexistent. Not only does it feel degrading and dehumanising but also it can’t be good for the mental health or sexual maturity of men either. I don’t mind if men want to share content of women they find attractive so much but the hypersexualisation, extreme physical proportions, and predatory nature of a lot of the kind of content they do post is disturbing.
Obviously a large contributor is that our communities get drowned out or lost to the void because the ratio of people using these social media sites are producing extreme biases towards men and the sexualisation of women. Which leads to echo chambers of negative sexualisation which then leads to a spiral of greater extremes.
The way I see it there’s still a negative social bias around male sexualisation and a whole lot of hetero fragility.
Men that prescribe to that treat content that sexualises a man as being negative (and worse still, gay [I don’t believe this personally I’m just talking in that mindset]). Because for them to even see that kind of content, even if it wasn’t meant for them is, is unnacceptable. It’s not simply a case of filtering the content. No it shouldn’t have even been put in front of them at all. But for us why isn’t filtering this content enough? we are made to accept their way and they are not expected to accept, or even tolerate, our way.
I’m bi but the hypersexuality of women online pushed me towards being hetero for a long time. It just drained any desire I had to be open about my own sexuality even internally. I know that online is only a part of my interaction with the world but it certainly contributed a lot against me being honest with myself about my sexuality. I can’t even begin to imagine what effect it’s having on straight men.
That sounds like fun
Understandable but it’s a shame that it’s not going to continue

Honestly I’d rock an m1a1 in a dress I could have a Kevlar underskirt to match. Let me ride to war atop my Abrams chariot dressed like a queen.
Edit: only after posting did I realise we might be talking about the toys and not dress up.
I think that’s bread not cookies. It looks like they’re sandwiches cut into shape.
Understood. I appreciate you taking the time to answer these questions. You guys are doing an amazing job. <3
Maybe a bot could even do the part of the moderators and DM a member when they first comment or post. Allowing the user to respond to the bot to confirm if they fit the community and if not then remove the comment/post. A big ask I know but it may be an option if automation is on the table.
Sorry, I wasn’t exactly clear. I’m mostly just curious if you have further plans alongside the move to blahaj to address the issue you raised in this post.
I saw the post in the old community that talked extensively about the issue of outside influence and open hostility to members within the community which are the concerns I’m referring to.
Regarding Lemmy growing, what would be the response to the issue getting worse? Are there any plans for if that happens?
Turns out I was wrong on that one. My bad. Some of them don’t really look like they have shutters but apparently they all do and it’s enforced too. I guess that makes even more sense why there are those plastic earth connectors on some plugs then.
Well it turns out I don’t know what I’m talking about at all despite using these sockets every day. They’re a lot more technical than I realised. Shows what we take for granted I guess.
