  1. I am paying for some “cat collar” crime. I nabbed a piece of catnip from one of the bedding plants today and stuffed it in my jeans’ pocket for the cats. Now my pocket smells like catnip and the cats are VERY interested in my pocket. Rookie mistake! I should have put it in my jacket pocket.

  6. I've been 3D-printing for around five and a half years. So I'm not a rookie, but I just made a #rookie #mistake.

    I've spent the last couple of weeks making compartments and dividers and such for the toolboxes I take to the Repair Cafe. Lots of test #prints to check fits and footprints, full prints, changes to design based on lessons learned during use at the last cafe, etc. I've put around three kilograms of #filament through my printer in that time.

    Then, in the last couple days, I started having various problems. At first they only showed up on big prints - #adhesion and #curling, which I've had before when pushing the limits of my bed size. But prints seemed to be getting #sloppier, and I had a couple of spaghetti explosions.

    Tonight, I finally took the #hotend apart and looked at it closely - it's very difficult to do when the printer is fully assembled, because it's a #delta printer.

    Lo and behold, the nozzle appeared worn. And that can account for all the problems.

    I should have checked this sooner - but I've only been printing plain #PLA, nothing abrasive, so I didn't think of it. Lesson learned.

    Pardon the shitty photo from a cheap digital magnifier. The old #nozzle #orifice is about 1.5x the diameter of the new one - so 2.25x the area. No wonder plastic was going everywhere but where it should go!

    Seems to be printing *much* better with a new nozzle.

    Well, it's a good thing the moderator made a backup copy of the post, just in case there is problem with the moderation process. You can restore Anders' post manually. Yes? You do have a backup copy, don't you‽ 👀

  22. Went shopping in #Lidl with a “free vegetable” coupon, so had to work out what was the most expensive thing (that I needed) that I could get for free. But, damn, forgot I had already put another, cheaper, vegetable item in my basket: you can guess which one the coupon gave me for free… #RookieMistake 🤦‍♂️

    Still effectively got 50% off the big bag of tomatoes, so it wasn’t too bad… 🍅🙂

  27. While dx'ing I stumbled across the RAC Contest participants. I decided to hand out some contacts.

    Did not open a contest log, just ignored their exchange and gave them a serial. Sent by hand. 001...002...003...

    The bands are good and participation is quite ok. So now I find myself hand sending 144... 145... 146...

  30. As my lovely wife flipped past this cooking competition show, i made the mistake of noting that one of the contestants is a raging douche.
    This apparently indicated that i was interested in the show, so now of course we’re watching it.

    VPN connection to client's network has been so rock solid lately that I chose to run a command in the foreground that I knew would take hours to complete.

    Yep you guessed it!

    Today is the day the VPN decides to have a minor hiccup and now I'm running that command again...

  44. The forecast said lows of +10 ºC and a slight chance of rain. It did not say full days of constant rain, howling winds, and nighttime lows dipping below freezing! Hence, our five-day backcountry trip was cut to three.

    Lesson learned: plan for the worst and hope for the best.

    Isn't there a relevant saying for this? "There's no such thing as bad weather, only bad gear."
