Lemmy has it's own dens of awful that simp pretty hard for dictators and some pretty shitty regimes

Luckily my instance is defederated from the worst one (IMO)

Lemmy is definitely a lot more accepting of queer people though which I really dig

I'm surprised those scores are so high honestly

It's fuckin hard being queer on social media

All the games I like run fine on Linux nowadays

As the saying goes: if you only have one backup you have zero backups.

How the fuck does Google of all companies manage to accidentally delete that‽

@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Visa is rolling out technology that will allow you to tap your card on your smart device to add it to your wallet. You’ll also be able to tap your card to your phone to confirm a transaction without needing to input any additional information.

So like almost any tap to pay system?

Shit I was doing this stuff with GPay for years.

Within a decade, you’ll likely access all of your cards with one credential and choose which payment method you’d like to use. That includes not just credit and debit cards, but also buy now, pay later options and direct payments from your bank account.

This is just PayPal.

@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

No worries

And dang that it's not one of those things as the things I mentioned in my comment are relatively easy to fix

Edit: Best of luck on solving it and I really hope to see you post about how you fixed it as I'm hella curious

Not wanting to be filmed backstage at an event seems pretty normal IMO as backstage is where a lot of prep work happens. It probably not safe for untrained personnel and/or might reveal things that people don't want on camera (like costume malfunctions that are being worked out)

Beautiful

Do you have the correct thermister type set in the firmware? If there's a reporting difference that could be why. (This one bit me on my first 3D printer rebuild, now I'm way more vigilant about it)

Without a nozzle installed are you able to push the filament through the hot end? (This one bit me on one of my printers due to faulty hot end and there being a piece of metal partially obstructing the filament path. Sucked to diagnose but was an easy fix once it was found)

Is everything on the hot end tightened down still? (This one bit me a few weeks ago after a couple bolts on my hot end worked themselves lose after months of use)

Is your extruder still functional gripping the filament? If it can't grip properly (or is jamming) this can cause clogging issues.

@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Have you run a PID tune?

And when you installed your thermal probe and heater cartridge did you use thermal compound?

Edit: Sorry for the really basic questions but in my experience clogging issues typically have a frustratingly simple solution.

Edit2: Does your printer have a screen not connected to Klipper?

Gormadt , to 196 in Sad, but rule
@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Hope is key to acting

Using hope as a driving factor for acting to bring the change you want to see

For example: I hope to see better pedestrian focused infrastructure in my community therefore I act in a way to make that happen. I call my reps, I talk with people I meet about it, etc.

Gormadt , to 196 in CUTE shredder rule
@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

When I used to play MTG one of the LGSs I used to play at had a policy of, "If you play with proxies they much be cleared by the judge first."

Almost everyone with anime proxies got told they couldn't use them due to them almost always being NSFW. The people with sharpied basics almost never got turned down. The anime proxy dudes who got turned down always got pissed when they got told no.

They were pretty good on a lot of things but the regulars who'd show up to games were eventually the reason I stopped going there.

I do miss MTG sometimes but I don't miss the local MTG groups at all.

Gormadt , to memes in sounds about right
@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Those targeted ads aren't messing around

Edit: Personally I've already got an urn picked out for me. A probably too large coffee can of my favorite coffee brand.

I'd prefer it not get used for my ashes for at least a few more decades though.
