That's guilt by association. Their viewpoint is awful.

I also wished there was no security at the gate of concerts, but I happily accept it if that means actual security (if done reasonably of course). And quite frankly, cute anime girl doing some math is so, so much better than those god damn freaking captchas. Or the service literally dying due to AI DDoS.

Edit: Forgot to mention, proof of work wasn't invented by or for crypto currency or blockchain. The concept exists since the 90's (as an idea for Email Spam prevention), making their argument completely nonsensical.

The magnetic plate indeed warps, not due to heat though but the material on it warping. I saw that on both the i3 Mega as well as a Prusa MK4S with PETG and ABS. Printing big solid objects close to a corner would cause the corner to be lifted up, as the warping of the object is often times stronger than the magnetic plates. Probably gives you an idea of how much force a glass plate has to withstand, especially with badly warping materials like ABS. You can counter this issue with some strong clamps. Doesn't happen on most prints anyway, only on really large and solid ones. The magnetic adhesion in the center is strong enough for anything.

Never before has anyone accomplished to make me want to throw a whole library in its entirety at them, including the building. Good job.

Wrong. You are the product anyway, believing the majority of companies would not monetarize you because they made you pay first is very naive.

I did exactly that to my i3 Mega to attach the magnetic plate directly to the heat plate. I indeed bend the whole thing in the process, fortunately though I was able to fix it (Z-Probe reports a maximum difference of 0.37 now). Don't recommend though.

The industrial-grade glue they used is an absolute nightmare. If you choose to go that route definitely get yourself a proper heatgun as well as acetone, a spatula and some safety mask (for the acetone fumes). If you got an oven for tinkering perhaps heating the whole thing up to weaken the glue.

Leaving the glass plate where it is and putting something new on top definitely is way easier. Not sure I'd do this a second time myself (probably not).

Would be interested as well. /e/OS doesn't report any tracker activity to me from it.

I asked my teacher why we were so christianity-centric in the class, we literally never talked about things like Shintoism, Islam and more. She then loudly proclaimed to the class that I "wanted to have an extra (!) block about FOREIGN religions" (of course causing 90% of the class to scream at me - bullying was rampant there anyway). She then smiled at me in the most fucking dense way possible to basically say "see, nobody wants that" and from then on ignored all my protests and just left, ignorantly smiling like the idiot she was.

We proceeded to not learn anything about them, therefore the only influence we had (since it was the countryside) were the news talking about islamic terrorists.

Also same about MLK of course. He existed and he had a dream, end of history.

Western history classes gracefully ignore things like the chinese empires, the golden ages in the arabic world (which oh so happened to be to be during the "dark ages" of Europe and saw science flourish there) and anything that happened on the american continent prior to colonialization (not like we know too much about it given the colonizers' rampages and targeted cultural destruction). Let alone African history, Indian, South-East Asia, Australia…

Same of course with religions. But watching that Martin Luther movie three times was definitely important I guess, cause it "changed the whole (!) world". I fucking hate all of this bullshit.

Sorry for the rant.

What does this relate to? Only had limited dial-up back then (it's probably some US stuff?).

To my knowledge there is no hard evidence for sexuality being primarily genetical?

Just… take them out of it first? Don't really see the problems here. A little bit of rain during shipping is no problem for the material.

Context: X11Libre is a fork of X11 aiming at preserving the X Server (fair enough, right?). One of the creators got permanently banned from freedesktop.org for apparently violating the Code of Conduct (no info on that, they just blame Red Hat), see themselves as hunted by both Big Tech and "toxic elements" who "took over the X11 project" They want to "make X great again".

The issue about their highly political README (which they wrote due to the original project "becoming too political", lol) also contains the usual red flags like transphobia. https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver/issues/40
