  • I thought I’d add that it looks like it’s overextruded. So much that the filament is being “pushed” out and curling back around the nozzle.

    It could be the e steps, flow rate, etc but it could also be that your Z offset needs to be adjusted back away a smidge.

    That could be part of the inconsistent print since the tool head movement over one section of the bed vs another may be affected by the layer below based on how the filament curled there.

    If you want to do a deep dive into adjusting/calibrating the Ender I did write up a bit here (although that post does relate to Klipper and I mention settings/adjustments for Klipper it starts purely with the physical printer itself and builds on it)

  • It has to be fixed in a tangible medium.

    In this case they’re not “fixing” their words and the final art is the created expression. Yet in this case their created expression wasn’t created by them but the program.

    In this case their combination is the palette and paint but the program “interpreted” and so fixed it.

    For example you can’t copyright a simple and common saying. Nor something factual like a phone book. Likewise you can’t copyright recipes. There has to be a “creative” component by a human. And courts have ruled that AI generated content doesn’t meet that threshold.

    That’s not to say that creating the right prompt isn’t an “art” (as in skill and technique) and there is a lot of work in getting them to work right. Likewise there’s a lot of work in compiling recipes, organizing them, etc. but even then only the “design” part of the arrangement of the facts, and excluding the factual content, can be copyrighted.











  • If a person is at the intro/intermediate level that advice may be sound enough. Since they’re less likely to apply proper rules to include those ranges of IP’s etc.

    Assuming it’s advising disabling it at the router/switch level and not just a per device level.

    Better would be to explain: Disable this until you’re familiar with the following concepts (see cited books/material for more info)


  • Or a LAN. Could do a WAN which itself can be interconnected over a wide area. Usually by routing over the internet but you could use something like satellite uplink or miles of dedicated cables.

    But the interconnection of multiple LANS and WANS is what would make an “internet”.

    So maybe 2 universities joining their own networks would be moving towards a private “internet” but I think we’d still call that a private network or a WAN.

    It’s interesting to consider where the definitions change.



  • Exactly… this printer is useful honey.

    I can make parts for the printer, accessories for filament management for the printer.

    Halloween decorations… once I get the printer back online when I have this mod finished.

    Parts for another printer.

    Mounts for the brooms… when more filament comes in since I used the last of it for the parts for the new printer.

    Save 450 on a unique appliance part they’re not making anymore which now justifies the thousands I’ve spent on this thing.

    Seriously though. It is a fun hobby and if you want to just print and make things and not tinker there are plenty of good options out there. Me? I like tinkering. It’s a blast.
