The very top layer would also have high cooling fan, no?
It could be your cooling fan is just waaaay too powerful, and causing the plastic to not flow and bond correctly to the lower (or following) layers.

I’ve been seeing your posts on Masto, but I guess I’ll reply here.
I don’t know what printer you have, and I don’t know if the feature works for all printers, but could you try and use PrusaSlicer to visualise the print where the issue presents itself. More specifically, you could get some interesting data from the “actual print speed” view. That way you can see what speed the printhead reaches.
However, based on your description:
Could you be reaching the limit of what your printhead can melt? Would it make sense to calculate the actual flow through your nozzle at those high speeds? Finally, how much part cooling do you have setup? Have you tried a skirt to keep the temps more consistent?


@geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml Can we please ban this troll/anti EU contributor already?


Not sure what you need to get approved. Buying a roll of ASA? It’s part of printer maintenance, and making it more reliable in the long run.
And if you don’t have ABS/ASA on hand… why is the printer in an enclosure?


It’s the PETG. Specifically, it is the softening on the following parts:
I would recommend the following Y-axis mod for the MK4. I am still running this even on the MK4S, even though the Y-axis was modified on the MK4S.
Edit: Print those in ASA and replace them, tighten all the belts as usual, and I think your printer will be fixed.


My money is on the PETG starting to loosen and you losing tension on the belts.
You have the MK4 in an enclosure–I did too. At some point I stopped being able to print flexibles, but ASA/PCCF was still fine. Prusa support told me that the idler was getting loose and my hotend was losing grip on the fillament.
I had another print where there was a nearly 2-3cm shift in the layers between layer 5 and layer 80. Some of my belts had absolutely lost the plot. I reprinted everything in ASA or PCCF, and while upgrading to the MK4S rebuilt the printer with all ASA/PCCF parts. No problems since.


Non mais, c’est quoi ce langage alarmiste?
C’est quoi le but exactement? De faire croire aux gens que les airbags sont plus dangereux que… checks notes… s’exploser le crâne sur le volant, en cas d’impact?

I’m someone who builds cloud infrastructure for a living. I only touch AWS (Amazon), but the same applies to Azure (Microsoft) and GCP (Google).
Kagi is private. Saying that they “rely” on Google because they use GCP is akin to saying that the US Army relies on General Motors because they use Hummers. It’s just a provider. They’re renting virtual machines, compute power, storage, and network bandwidth nothing more. You can use GCP/Azure/AWS without your data ever being visible by GCP/Azure/AWS. It’s not because you use GCP that you have to use AdSense/Analytics/Fonts, etc. They are completely separate.
Politicians would have a field day with all the cloud providers if using one thing forced you to use everything.


Because those are the rankings that are displayed in the Chess@lemmy.ml sidebar. They haven’t been updated in over a year.
It could be a case of too much cooling, while simultaneously being too much heat.
If you’re blowing so much air that the filament instantly solidifies when it leaves the nozzle, it’s not going to bond with anything else. It’s also interesting that the first layers are fine (when the part cooling fan is typically not running), but problems start when the part cooling fan turns on.
Have you tried without part cooling at all? Another thing is that your part cooling might be cooling down the tip of the nozzle, causing tiny partial clogs, which are cleared every so often by friction.
Did you notice a difference in print speed when you slowed down? As this is a small print, it could already be as slow as it will be due to minimum layer times.
It could also be that the nozzle spends too much close to the print. What happens if you print 2 or 3 of them?
This is typically more of an issue with PC where you don’t have a part cooling fan running, but maybe it’s the case here too?
Definitely doesn’t sound like an issue with Tor Browser in Strict Mode. /s


The simple fact that buying a $300 device and to “not expect software updates” is not considered a scam is hilarious to me.


Interesting that the extra 10° makes such a difference for ASA and ABS.
I recently started printing with ASA in my enclosed MK4. I might have to try this.


Soit tout le monde a un vote, soit personne n’en a. Limiter la participation c’est créer des non-citoyens, et on a vu ce que ça donne.
Là où il faut intervenir c’est sur la participation. 51% à l’échelle européenne. 51.5% en France. La Belgique fait la fière avec ses 90% de participation, mais ça ne suffit pas. En Croatie 4 personnes sur cinq se sont abstenues. Bon nombre de pays où c’est 2 sur 3.
As far as I know the 1DXIII is still being produced, nearly 4 and a half years after its launch.
Single lens reflexes have one massive advantage: the sensor is not being used while you’re composing or idle, which means the sensor doesn’t heat up as much. Hot sensors generate noise, which you then have to compensate for (by doing an equal exposure with the shutter closed to remove the hot pixels).
But mirrorless is faster, cheaper to produce, smaller. It’s inevitable that DSLRs will soon be a relic of the past. But they won’t be for a while: 30% of the enthusiast market in 2022 was still DSLRs.


Perpignan est géologiquement dans une cuve de pierre, avec très peu d’entrées naturelles. Les POs n’ont que 40% du terrain qui est “sédimentaire”, et qui peut donc absorber l’eau de pluie. L’Agly, le Réart, la Tet et le Tech sont régulièrement a sec, je me souviens faire du camping dans le Réart il y a 20 ans.
La surface sédimentaire est très argileuse, ce qui veut dire que c’est un sol qui est incapable d’absorber de l’eau. Quand c’est sec, rien ne pénètre, et quand c’est saturé, rien ne pénètre. L’eau de pluie finit dans la Méditerranée.
Si tu superposes la carte page 19 du PDF et la carte page 16, tu vois que la majorité du terrain qui n’est pas de la roche pure c’est de l’argile. RIP.
First sentence on the first hit when searching for “Gmail smtp imap”:
For non-Gmail clients, Gmail supports the standard IMAP, POP, and SMTP protocols.
https://developers.google.com/gmail/imap/imap-smtp
What you’re referring to is the fact that GMail has apparently disabled authentication using username + password for SMTP/IMAP. I would assume that application passwords still work fine as a workaround, even if they don’t mention it specifically.
Okay, fairy nuff.
In that case, I would probably start with writing an SMTP or IMAP proxy first. It will teach you everything you need to know about the protocols, and you can reverse engineer the protocols using a client that already works.
It would give you a tangible project outline, which I believe is often critical to not lose motivation or interest.
If you accept using libraries, there’s the imap crate, the mail_send crate, and samotoo crate that are worth looking at.
There’s an explicit clause that exempts politicians from the ban. They get privacy because they need it, but nobody else does.
