I like to heal and have a pet to help with soloing, so Warden is my main, but that's another thing I really really like about the progression is that all classes can tank, heal, or DPS with so many different abilities based on the weapons you use.

Obviously there's more meta picks, like a Templar was for tanking (might be out of meta by now), etc. But for real, the systems are very accomodating to build variety IMO (again people will probably disagree, but im not playing the game hardcore. Just for funzies)

Thats the main way I play tbh.

The voice acting is nice, but I won't lie questing is a bit shallower than with Skyrim. Lots of collectables, horizontal progression. Its a nice package!

It has options for group dungeons and I quite enjoyed the PvP for when you get that multiplayer itch.

Also world chat keeps things interesting lmao.

Great to hear. Im over my MMO grinding days, but ESO is still fun to hop in an for an hour and do some quests.

That was the most logical answer I came up too. Its just crazy to do the right thing and make if work offline instead of just binning it like so many other live service games.

This is..... kind of weird, no? Like why would they pull the plug on an app that keeps the microtransaction money rolling?

" Asked for comment about the new lawsuit, a Temu spokesperson said in a prepared statement that Shein's "audacity is unbelievable."

"Shein, buried under its own mountain of IP lawsuits, has the nerve to fabricate accusations against others for the very misconduct they're repeatedly sued for," the spokesperson said. "

Pot calling the kettle black? Shouldnt they both just keep their heads down and keep chipping away at Amazon? It just seems a bit preemptive on Sheins part. I feel like some sort of confrontation between the two is inevitable, but I guess I thought it would have happened when they were more neck and neck with Amazon.

NK stole the identity of other Americans. They dotted i's and crossed t's to get into knowb4 via social engineering. Really fucked up.

Thats my fear too. Visually I'm totally in on the style, but it needs good feeling gunplay to really sing.

Hi there,

It seems that my midwest.social account has stopped showing the upvote count on posts and comments sometime over the last few days. My Lemmy.world and lemm.ee accounts show them fine still.

Ive tried logging out and back in and still no dice.

Anyone else having this bug?

Hey there.

Im working on a project for some software I want in the world. But I'm such a hobbyist that I've never thought of publishing any of my projects, but after doing so much work in it I kind of want other to have access to it after I feel its ready.

Whats the process of distribution? I guess I typically use github when interacting with FOSS community, but its still confusing for me to navigate as an end user sometimes, let alone being an uploader.

FWIW its simply a few python modules and other supporting txt and jsons. Targeting mostly Windows because that's what I use.

Thanks! (If this isn't the right place to ask please let me know!)

Edit: there are a bunch of great comments here! To clarify, I want to get it functional and somewhat bug free then fully upload everything so someone can see my idea and do it better. So I think I'm going to go with unlicense, because I don't really care about getting credit or getting contributions necessarily. Thanks all!

I just sent this email over to elegoo official, so either way I'll update this post with their response for a community reference point:

"Hello, I'm having issues with my Elegoo Neptune Pro 4. I've tried following the official documentation and other resources to help fix my issue to no avail, so I am reaching out as a last ditch effort.

My issue mainly pertains to PLA prints consistently being ruined partway during printing after a few months of use and operation.

Specifically, my print will successfully complete the first few layers. Then, at some point, the print will somehow 'grab' or 'catch' the print base and drag it around the print bed, ruining the print and causing a large build up of filament at my hotend. This then requires cleaning.

From what I have seen, this can be caused by issues with the print bed not being clean or the temperature of the bed in relation to the fan speed. For example, having a low fan utilization at the beginning, then ramping up later in the print is supposed to help this issue. However any fixes I tried returned null results.

Some background info, I purchased the printer on preorder and received it in September 2023. I have kept up with maintenance. Namely, keeping stepper motor tracks cleaned and greased properly, belts tightened, the print bed is wiped down with 90% ISO alcohol between prints. I have replaced the hot-end when I first started experiencing print issues, and again during the troubleshooting process to further diagnose the problem.   My Z offset seemingly is "correct". I followed the mfg instructions closely, and before this issue, my prints were coming out beautifully.  

Print Settings: Using Elegoo brand PLA 1kg filament rolls. Default Elegoo Cura print settings applied for temperature, speed, fan speed, nozzle size, etc. Supports or No supports didn't make a difference during my troubleshooting. Brim printing mode is my default.

For the 4-5 months that I've had the Neptune Pro 4 has been absolutely amazing. Fantastic quality, consistent, very easy to use and maintain. The issues I'm experiencing are beyond annoying and I can't seem to figure it out myself.

Is this issue known? What are the recommended solutions?"

  • Let me know if any of you have experienced something similar to this and how you addressed it!

EDIT: This is likely solved. There are many issues that can contribute to this issue but TLDR quadrouple check your z offsets. Read the thread for other good info.
