We should just turn off the Internet altogether. It was clearly a mistake. 2024-11-22T16:11:19Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsdwc9tajuzlx8uuh424tj6dgaemcysy3g748jy68zt54kmleq8h9gzyqzvzkr27txgckffynwwvrffnvnz7rr6qq39mu2n5cyny3phheqc2nac5fj So, there&#39;s a bug in Orca Slicer that causes it to crash on some Linux systems. It seems to be related to the Nvidia proprietary drivers because forcing it to use Mesa stops it crashing the framerate is awful. The solution is to to add a port number to the printer address.<br/><br/>There&#39;s another bug that causes it to create printer moves with unreasonably large extrusion rates (around 1400 mm^3/s). The solution for that one is to set the fan speed-up time to 0s.<br/><br/>Bugs are *really* weird.<br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1d4n99rmnvrr2g980clg6wvelhwfuss3sy4c8g6tcfqwrtk6jledsg6dptf" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>3D Printing</span> (<span class="italic">npub1d4n…dptf</span>)</a></span> 2024-11-22T13:14:23Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsq6xrjgv7uh4mrrk7rrzafj82wpvh87l9fkplz0tdn42n540tsjsszyqzvzkr27txgckffynwwvrffnvnz7rr6qq39mu2n5cyny3phheqc2zjrqhj In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsya2xnx6twj8vjl2q3hkm8am29e8cd0pfv3mkzahuxgv5g5tegxesyf3kl3'>nevent1q…3kl3</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>You don&#39;t move them, it&#39;s just that everyone knows you own them and you trade them by telling people someone else owns them now. You identify individual ones by their location. So you might say &#34;I&#39;ll trade you the middle one in the group of three near the stream.&#34; Then you tell everyone around you to tell everyone they know that the transaction took place. It&#39;s very analogue blockchain-esque. 2024-11-09T16:24:54Z
