Linux does exactly what you tell it to, not exactly what you want. There’s a big difference.

13 year user. Reddit communities helped me get through some tough times. I haven’t visited in ages, but R/stopdrinking is one of the reasons I’m able to cosplay as a functional human. Many hobbies and passions were found and expanded there. I mod a small subreddit. I didn’t delete my account, but it went from visiting multiple times a day to now about once a week.

TBH it makes me pretty sad, and feels like a ‘small death’ of something I cared about more than I fully realized. I’m still mourning it in some ways, but am also excited about the ‘old internet’ feel of Lemmy and the fediverse and being part of that ride.

I didn’t know this was a thing, and I’ve tried to read everything by William Gibson, so thanks for sharing!

TPU is tricky. Did you tune All The Things for it, separate things PLU settings? Off the top of my head I use 230 nozzle, 40 bed temperature (instead of ~200/60) and the retraction settings are different. I think the base speed had to be tuned too. Even then, my prints don’t turn out as smooth as id prefer. The balance of walls and infill numbers can be a dance.

I sometimes tell myself that I don’t have to go very far, or maybe I just have to walk, but put on my shoes (and headphones and whatever else) and walk out the door. Once I’m out, I usually do want to go. Sometimes I can convince myself that future me will appreciate it if I go, which can be motivation, but that depends on the day. I also find that signing up for a race helps. If I don’t train leading up to it, that day is going to suck much more, and I don’t want that to happen!

I also have dogs and once they get a hint that I might go for one they are very persistent about making sure I take them. 😆

Same. I really want to like 3D VR gaming, but I get nauseous after a few minutes every time.
