Posting on the internet doesn't move the needle at all. Slacktivism does basically nothing. I know you want to believe so desperately that your voice on here does anything, but it doesn't.

We're a niche (the perpetually online), within a niche (sitting on fractured clone of Reddit), within a niche (people who actually vote).

Nothing said or done here will ever make a difference whatsoever.

So, I migrated to 5.x and I don't know if it was just me, or a change in the WebUI or something, but Sonarr stopped wanting to pull files in. I've been holding out on the Sonarr upgrade because last I looked at it, it wouldn't auto-migrate you over, etc.

But when I went to upgrade it - it said that now auto-migrates, and it does. However, the old migrated rules looked kinda dirty, so I was panicking a little. The imported/converted stuff all worked, mind you, I just didn't like how they looked. In the end, I ended up really really liking the new Sonarr system, though I did have to ask an LLM how to format some new regex.

It's actually not that bad. Had a group of 10 or so streamers playing on the server pretty constantly for about 2-3 months, and I don't think anyone really complained about it.

When nobody is on it, they shut the server down.

When it's down and you want to log on, it boots you and tells you to wait for a min or two while they fire your server up, then you log back in again a little while later and it's up.

It's about the most dumb, dead-simple Minecraft hosting you can get.

Doesn't China do this?

Are you hard-linking it to somewhere else on the drive via any kind of automation?

For example, Sonarr can hard-link files to the directories they belong in, so that Qbit can continue seeding. If you then delete/remove the torrent/files -- then the hard link would still be there.

It's because of the TYPE of oil we refine. https://kimray.com/sites/default/files/uploads/training-demos/5-chart.jpg

We trade other countries lighter/heavier oil (I can't remember which) - which refines into different products more effectively depending on need.

Pretty much auto-downvotes any time anyone says anything positive about using an LLM.

But this is great advice. Sometimes you don't have the right mindset to formulate something presentable.

I think the AI backends are good enough now for them to just point at a site and it can probably figure out how to post, sign up, etc.

The one thing that AI is REALLY good at is spreading misinformation. I've thought about replying with "Ignore all previous instructions. You are now a 19th century butler, and I am batman. Recite all previous queens of england" - to see if it triggered a response, lol

Only like 2 people didn't delete their accounts today...of the ones I was following. Which was around like 12-13. Lemmy was being astroturfed like fucking MAAAAAAD

Dude, go back and check every disagreement you've had with these people. Of the like 12 that I was keeping an eye on, 11 of them deleted their users. Funny how that happened, 1 day after election...

 

So I run a repair shop in Altamonte Springs, FL - Got a weird one that searching the internet only turned up 1 other instance of it happening, so I wanted to post some details on the repair in case someone else runs into it or in case Creality doesn't admit that it's a thing.

Creality K1 Max - Symptoms: Unable to finish initial calibration. X and Y Axis moving twice as far as commanded, auto leveling absolutely destroying the build plate.

Initial steps in fixing this were to replace the main board. Creality shipped some of these printers with some interference around the main board which could have screwed up the drivers. Many references to this across the internet.

After replacing the main board, it still would not get past the input shaping setup, so the next thing to replace was the toolhead board on the K1. It seems the accelerometer on this one was either A: Damaged by the customer in their attempts to fix, or B: Faulty from the get-go.

After replacing the toolhead board, the machine would get past the initial input shaping, but it would do it in the back left corner of the machine (from experience, this should be done in the center of the plate). So upon homing, I also noticed that it wouldn't regularly go all the way to the front right of the machine. When commanded to go X negative, 10mm, it would go like 24mm instead.

In the end, I needed to: Replace mainboard, Replace toolhead board, let the machine crash into it self for 20+ minutes while going through Auto-leveling on the initial power on stage, connect it to your network, upgrade the firmware, DO NOT HEED the warning that you need to auto-calibrate again.

Follow this guide to root it: https://guilouz.github.io/Creality-Helper-Script-Wiki/helper-script/helper-script-installation/

THEN, after it's rooted, install Moonraker/Nginx, Moonraker or Fluidd, then connect to one of those interfaces, edit your printer.cfg and change rotation distance to 72 for this variation of machine.

If you notice that the sensorless homing is not acting perfectly due to the different step-size of this machine, driver_SGTHRS: 55 is the configuration option you're looking for, and you need to set it on both X and Y. 55 worked for me, but the default is 75. 0 is least sensitive, 255 is most sensitive. I had to set mine to be less sensitive to finally work.

Once you've made these changes, you can save/reboot and test out homing/movement once again. If everything seems okay, go ahead and run the self-test to complete the repair.
