  • Il not even sure it’s possible. It might work for ballpark, “decent enough” settings but would that even be better than factory settings?

    I have 2 PETG colors from the same brand that behave widely differently. I’ve seen batches of the exact same brand, material and color needing different temperature and retraction settings.

    Each printer seems unique and seems to need slightly different settings than the next. Mechanical components wear out and drift out of tune. Thermocouples and hall sensors can drift. When rebuilding or upgrading your hotend, chances are you’ll need to recalibrate everything. Belts need regular retensioning and that might affect motion settings.


  • We thought like this in the late 90’/early 00’s when the FN won a couple of cities in southern France. Their failures, nepotism, mismanagement, amateurism, stupidity and blatant authoritarianism got widely reported at first. Some media kept tabs for much longer but it faded out off mainstream media pretty quickly, except for the occasional scandal.

    Worse, it legitimizes them and give them a platform under a veneer of electoral legitimacy.

    Don’t let the far right win anything. You won’t “show everyone they’re unfit for power” because people don’t care. They just become familiar faces.




  • French is even weirder with “sentir”.

    For feelings, french usually uses a reflexive form: “je me sens triste” (I feel sad). That’s the easy part.

    Now the real fun is that you can say stuff like “je sens tes pieds”, and it could mean “I can feel (touch) your feet” or “I can smell your feet”, or even both at the same time.
