"Millennial lingo" by Shen Comic
  • I know i'm old, i just found a new hobby: messing woth the younger generation by messing with their slang.

    You know, like how grandpa called every pokeman pikachu...but on purpose.

  • Anon sends a file
  • I work with a couple guys that basically aim to do as little as possible in as much time as possible.

    I'm a millenial and it seems i've become a boomer, telling these guys to stop building cardboard towers as everyone notices and will tell their supervisor. Then they get angry with me for some weird ass reason while they just spent 3 days doing one hour worth of work.

    Our supervisor wants me to get them to work better, but it's 4 of them and one of me.

    I understand the mindset that it's the employers task to supply you with work, but there's plenty y'all just refuse to pick it up and get at it.

  • YouTube is deliberately crippling Firefox on ARM systems
  • I wanted to get premium and while i was considering it they had 2 price increases.

    No thank you, bye.

    I am of the mindset: i want value out of my money, subscriptions that let you own nothing immediately falls out of my requirements so i need it to be a price i'm willing to pay. Which is a low price.

    I cancelled spotify the moment they added €1 to the cost, all it gave me was a play button and a bunch of bullshit i don't care for like a year in review. Dude, i was there...listening to that music, i already know what i played so i don't need you to tell me.

    But that's just me and i'm the odd one out it seems.

    I compare spotify like this; i bought a cd from the discount bin for €5 and got to play that for a whole life and i'd be happy if it was all i had. Spotify opens up do much music to you which is really cool BUT i used to buy a single album a year and copy that to a new cd/mp3 player to add it to the previous boughr cd's. So my cost went from €5/€20 a year to €11 a month while i own nothing. In my head that's automatically a waste of €112 euro's that are spent with no real returning value.

    The biggest value most subscription services offer is: they'll stop literally pestering you with ads.

  • Relative size comparison of social media platforms (December 2023)
  • So that's why Instagram is the way it is, i assumed it was fairly small but it has attracted a rather toxic userbase and i don't actually enjoy it anymore.

    It used to be a place where i could share my joys and people with similar interests would follow me because they enjoy my joys too.

    But now it's just tiktok, at least i assume seeing it's all reels and loud noises.

  • I've read some weird takes about 9/11 already.
  • If they use all that stuff to shoot the video, it means they already made it or they spent money they shouldn't have.

    I didn't mind getting a handful of ads an hour, i do mind that i now get like 20 minutes to watch some youtube because adulting sucks and Youtube is like: swallow these 7 ads bitch, guess what bitch we forgot we showed you 7 have some more cunt and now my 20 minutes is fucked, so i say: time for Youtube to get bent.

    If what i hear is right, they are and have been operating in the red for a long time. Half of their creators are better business people than they are.

  • Traffic lights
  • If it wasn't in an encyclopedia, you just trusted word of mouth.
  • I wouldn't only carry that misinformation but actively spread it like we just discovered a new jesus.

    Now i let the internet take care of it and live my own happy life while people worry about wrong info online.

  • Hits close to home
  • I wanted a G8 monitor or the G9

    The G9 is still €1799 and the G8 went from €888 to €840.

    I'll wait for an upgrade of either and see these drop to 2/3 of msrp or something.

  • my printer has reset the esteps (it resets settings out of nowhere more often) but i can't get it to take the new gcode.

    My printers do this from time to time where they just ignore everything i did tl make them work and start using factory values.

    It always pisses me off but usually once i find which setting it is i put it to what it needs to be and it's done.

    It's been 3 days of me giving my printer new e step values with zero result.

    At first i adjusted the start gcode in cura but now i'm also using an empty print file with settings and it has no effect.

    I have a 30:1 extruder and the values i used so far go from 92 all the way up to 33.000, it actually extruded more at 92 then it did at 33k. The extruded amount seems to be random compared to the e steps i put in, i don't really know what is happening.

    I checked the extruder gears and they look brand new.

    i have some issues with my ender 5 plus.

    It has a serious case of ghosting/ringing and it also is unable to print the tip of a sword properly.

    In my attempt to fix these it has only gotten worse as it now also has ugly edges, they look almost burned even though i llwered the temperature by one degree celsius.

    I put a direct drive extruder on it, it was not printing succesfully when it was still bowden.

    So far i've played around with the print speed a little, lowered the travel speed and printed some big corners pieces to make the frame more rigid.

    It seems the slight layer shifting inconsistencies have gotten a bit better.

    I think a large part of these issues come from the printer being so big and the weight of the direct drive extruder.

    I haven't been able to upload a picture and have no clue how to do it, the ringing is basically all over and the top 10mm look like a little lighting ⚡️instead of a smooth pointy tip.
