the war on computation in c/microblogmemes@lemmy.world

I use my laptop for data processing, but most of my tasks can be adequately handled from my phone. There are days when I don't open my computer when I get home from work.

My daughter listens to music while brushing teeth as a form of pleasant timer. We have been through the entire Weird Al discography (but had to listen to a few of the longer ones when not brushing teeth). Teenage me would approve.

This site says they are very anti-Israel, and have promoted conspiracy theories ok the past: https://ngo-monitor.org/ngos/euro-med-human-rights-monitor/

Despite their size, steam engines do not typically disrupt my workflow.

Piercing damage. They have a bow, so the group could shoot 13 arrows at +4 to hit, each with 1d6+2 damage.

There are divisions in the text that other authors might have broken into chapters. He is actually incredibly clever with those divisions, building sections longer or shorter to control the speed of the story.

U.S. Is Only Country To See Tourism Decline In 2025 in c/politics@lemmy.world

Depends how you define "tourist," I suppose.

Prints keep failing. in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

The temp of the bed or nozzle? I am using generic PLA.

Ok, I am having trouble uploading the video. Anyway, all of the prints will be fine up to a point, then detach. The nozzle is colliding with the models. In some cases, I can see the model being pushed down on one side or other by the nozzle before it detaches.

Everything is failing. There are definitely collisions happening.

How do you reduce the thickness of the first layer?

I have been using my Bambu A1 mini for the last several months without major issue, but suddenly I can't get anything to print. Even a benchy detaches before finishing.

I have scrubbed the plate with a fresh sponge, soap and water. I kept my filament in a dehydrator for a couple of days, then immediately tried to print.

There is a local problem, where an illegal landfill caught fire, and it can't be put out. I smell burning rubber all the time. Could that be the cause of the print failure? What else can I do?

Scientists are generally not stupid. They will not toil away in their garages trying to replicate million dollar laboratories. They will go work for people who have money, like oil companies and hedge funds.

Using an e-ink display as a monitor? (lemmy.world)

I have a Raspberry Pi Zero and I have attached it to the Waveshare 9.7" e-ink display. What I want to do is to make this a typing machine (I am aware of the screen refresh rate). The simplest version of this would be to run LibreOffice.

I can find several examples where this display is used with Python codes where the refresh rate can be set within an individual program (e.g., displaying calendar events or working as a clock). I have tested a couple of these projects, and they work. However, I would like to effectively use the display as a monitor.

How can this be achieved?

Fourth try on a print. Tried to add some adhesive to the bed to get it to stick better. Watched the first two layers and went to bed. Woke up to a printer on strike.
