Oh right, THAT was why I hadn't printed anything in awhile...
Got the extruder off, and the gears were completely clear, but there was a bigass chunk of filament. So, it's a heat creep issue. Knocked the start temp down from 200 to 190, and it looks like we may be in business.

Some misunderstandings floating around today: Incredible Hulk was Act 1, Infernal Hulk is Act 2, and Act 3 is coming right after that. Nothing’s been cut. Support’s surpassed expectations, every issue so far has sold out, and many more Hulk issues are on the way. 🔥🦾🔥
Marvel cuts its new Hulk ongoing comic after just 10 issues, but creators say that was the plan and there's already a sequel underway.

I think it’s telling you say “boss” not person. I don’t think most people here truly believe AI = NFT. Most here I’ve encountered are smart enough to know that “ai” is a marketing term and that LLMs seem like a dead end but that machine learning obviously has uses. What you’re encountering is 1/

They laid off the people who make passports in July while pushing the Save Act that will require passports to vote—especially married women who changed their name. This is a voter suppression bill. Call your Senators and tell them to vote NO. ☎️ 202-224-3121

Going to go to a “celebration of life” tonight for a kid I never met, whose dad I haven’t seen in 20+ years, and it feels like the right thing to do but it also just makes me feel sad and angry and my avoidance instinct is kicking in.
Which sucks for me, but also guy just lost his kid horrifically.

There was a treaty signed in the 60’s that says nobody owns the moon.
But it really feels more and more like the whole push to get back there is so somebody can call “dibs”.
We could have been explorers.

A few thoughts on this week's Starfleet Academy:
I already suspected this, but SAM may officially be my favorite character now.
Something BAD happened to the kids on the Protostar
Kinda sad that the IDW comics are definitely non-canon now
The rest is spoilers.
