Let's say grok is just leaning a bit to the right.

As a man I'd have never believed how common such behavior is. I'd have thought that's really outlandish.

Now I've gone through the (probably stereotypical) process of a guy having a daughter, she's an adult now.

What she told me - no, all this stuff isn't unusual at all. The first time she was afraid (and called me as she already had a phone of her own) she was not even 10 years old, riding her bike from my place to the ex-wife's place, teenage boys catcalling her.

There's a lot of us men around who find it hard to believe, because it doesn't happen to US. But it does. Frequently.

Tell me. I recently dated this blonde girl and suddenly I'm divorced, burnt out and middle aged. Ok, I still got two cool adult kids.

My name is Friedrich Trump (aka Frederick Trump) and I already did that and even had a nice hump.

Yes that's right. It's a get your shit together or go bust moment for us here in Europe.

Yep, I know that for myself. But I can't switch away from github as that is where the huge company I work for has its stuff - and it needs convincing the enterprises, not the individuals.

Personally I just have my own repos which I can move anywhere in an eyeblink. But it takes political power to. move governments, departments and companies.

For example I have no way to ditch Teams or Outlook, because that's the accounts my employer set up. I can't ditch my RSA hardware token, because that's what my. employer's customer uses. I can't ditch. my work phone as only Samsung and Apple are vetted.

That's something that needs to change on a pan-europrean level.

Musk is not a Nazi, because the Nazis built great cars.

Migrating cloud servers to European hosters. Give EU money to improve/build a linux desktop. Use that desktop in government, schools, universities... (instead of Windows). Fork Firefox. Host fediverse services and use them where the governments use Twitter / TikTok / Insta.

Harder: Mandate for mobile phones with a user installable OS (Cyanogen etc.) Force tech companies to provide total transparency about data usage. Cancel any safe harbor agreements.

In the end, everything the Open Source crowd wished for.

Btw, I'd have no issues with American / Russian / China hosted open source stuff when we can review what it does. Ah, ok, a "european code review agency" might be a thing.

Yeah, a minority of people voted for Hitler, too.

That's fair. It will be used a lot, as it is about the price of a box of eggs at the end of this year.

 

I have a couchsurfing guestbook and and some guests left me a few small hrynvia bills in 2018. I just rediscovered them and think about my guests who visited me in Munich and just hope everyone is safe.

This is not global news, just about remembering everything is always about real people with faces and names who just want to do nothing else but live normal. lifes.

Sorry, couldn't resist the clickbait title, but yes, THOSE should be checked from time to time, too.

But the PSA I want to say is: Check your printer for mechanical problems if you have trouble. It might not be obvious in the first place.

In this case my Ender 3 Pro with sprite was printing a horrible first layer and the z offset was never right - when it looked ok on the left side of the x axis it was off on the right side and vice versa. (Regardless of endless tries of bed tramming and using a bed mesh)

It turned out I had the eccentric nut on the right side of the gantry tightend too much when mounting the sprite, so the right side of the gantry was not moving freely enough.

Now I adjusted the eccentric nut, so I can juuuuust turn the wheel with my finger a bit, maybe a bit looser that what was explained in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsEdU8ZtI6U

(And people, don't purchase a single Z axis printer if you can avoid it. When I bought my Ender there was a HUGE price difference to dual Z, but nowadays thigs look much better)
