No rice
We don’t use that term in this community, see rule 7
drspod@lemmy.mlto raspberrypi@lemmy.ml•What are some cool projects that I can do with a 1st gen Raspberry Pi?5·2 months agoI used mine as a CUPS printserver to share a USB printer on the network. It was pretty slow when spooling though.
Filament oozing at the start is normal, that’s how you know it’s up to temperature. The start of your g-code should have a wipe at the edge of the build plate before starting the first layer to deal with the initial oozing.
What variable was being modified in the stringing test print in the image? Personally I would just keep doing those stringing test towers and modify a different retraction variable with the z-axis each time. You could also modify temperature to see if perhaps the filament is not sufficiently fluid at 185C.
For reference, on my Ender 3 Pro I use 8mm retraction distance at 80mm/s.

drspod@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•Microsoft getting nervous about Europe's tech independence3·2 months agoOh I see. That’s just measuring tracking scripts on websites. It’s not particularly relevant to what is discussed in the article (data sovereignty of cloud providers).
drspod@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•Microsoft getting nervous about Europe's tech independence3·2 months agoI could also edit the URL manually, it’s just an obnoxious way to respond to a question.

Please, no.
drspod@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•Microsoft getting nervous about Europe's tech independence2·2 months agoCertainly the Blacklight test show that Microsoft EU respect way more the privacy (forced by law) than Microsoft US.
What test?
If you go to your Settings page, there’s a Blocks tab which has a text-entry field where you can type in a community name to block it.

drspod@lemmy.mltoLemmy Support@lemmy.ml•[QUESTION] Would you consider adding PoW CAPTCHAs?1·2 months agoI frequently access Lemmy through quite old hardware, and I’d be a bit worried that these PoW scripts would make the site unusably slow for me.
I will describe how it works and the ethics of such a tool.
Where in this post do you describe the ethics of such a tool?
non-technical users believe that their votes are private, which is far from the truth. This attitude could potentially lead to harassment of Lemmings (yes, that’s what we Lemmy users call ourselves) for upvoting a particular post. Lemvotes makes it clear that votes are not private, which could help bring a more accurate picture of the way votes work on Lemmy to its users.
This is what needs discussion. It is this tool which will lead to harassment due to the way someone votes. And the threat or spectre of harassment will lead to the Chilling Effect, ie. self-censorship (of voting) to avoid harassment.
The chilling effect this causes will make communities even more like echo-chambers, as dissent will be pre-emptively squashed.
Without a tool like this existing, people have to go out of their way to find out this information (setting up their own instance, or finding someone who already does this surreptitiously). By making such a tool available to the lemmy community at large, you make it extremely easy for anyone to do this, and so the chance of harassment occurring is much higher.
You might think you’re being clever, or on some kind of crusade to educate the uneducated. But actually your actions are making this (community-built) platform worse. Compare your actions to releasing a 0-day exploit for a security vulnerability instead of responsibly disclosing. It doesn’t help, it just causes chaos until the people who do the actual work can figure out a solution.
Think about how your tool existing now changes the dynamic of Lemmy as a whole. Is it better, or worse? How would you actually solve this problem in Lemmy, instead of exploiting it?
What are the specs and how are you finding the performance?
