Aww yea.. Hauling grain... 😅
Our trips were much shorter, but I remember towing 10-tonne grain cars, sometimes multiple, with the old Dakota.
It surely wasn't rated for this, but the thing just refused to die.

I still can't take some people seriously, those who're afraid of putting a scratch in their beds by putting literally anything in them...
sigh

I've switched to... hyperion..? a while back.
I did like Nova a lot, and used that pretty exclusively for much longer, but switched when it got bought.

We always had a truck on the farm growing up, back then it was just a practical day-to-day tool.
It was small, dirty, scratched, dented, peeling, among other things.
It also smelled like cigarettes and only tuned to AM radio baseball, but whatever.

Sure, it was still higher and bigger than a car but also so much lower than these modern absurdities. And SO much more practical.
When you have to load the bed a million times, those new lifted pavement princess truck are just dumb af.
It towed more than most of these things too, although I'm pretty sure nobody even looked at how much it was supposed to haul on paper.
There are now city version of these emotional support trucks with about the engine size and towing capacity of my now retired hatchback.
You can lose sight of a grown up adult in the huge blind spots that it has.
100% impractical.
It's dumb as fuck.

Little click on 5, nothing on 4, 3 is binding, 2 is a cherry red...

Kinda sounds like the redundancy department of redundancy

Aside from adhesion itself, maybe that specific filament is (also) underextruding?
I have has a batch of 1.75mm filament that was actually something like 1.6ish. I tried to have it stick, but nothing worked because it simply wasn't extruding enough.
I eventually measured it with calipers, set that in the slicer and then it started worked fine.
Similarly, maybe your .2mm nozzle has a partial clog?

Sadly, the CAD software I have the most experience with is SolidWorks. It has its quirks, but I like it and I know my way around.
Which is too bad, because it's completely absolutely fucking stupidly expensive for any home use.

Not to mention I've heard stories of people getting caugth through exported models' metadata and getting sued for publishing models made with pirated or student versions or whatnot.
I'm not even a business and whilr I have no moral qualms pirating software, I don't exactly wanna deal with an actively hostile company either.

I've switched to onshape for now, but I know enshittification will eventually butcher it too.
There's a few others I've tried that I either can't get good at, or that simply lack functionality.

I've been meaning to try Alibre CAD, but last I checked, their trial thing required back and forth with a rep and I just never bothered.

I don't even mind paying, yet not $5k yearly or some shit.
If you ever find something, ping me.

This is actually not uncommon.
Churches are often in good locations for mobile coverage.

Honestly, I'd just use whatever the ISP provides.
Sure, it's not open source and it kinda sucks... But I mean, if you don't trust the ISP modem, you can't trust the rest of their infrastructure either anyway, so it's kinda moot.
At least that way you have a vague chance of having a modicum of support when shit breaks.

If it can't be put into bridge mode, it probably has some sort of DMZ function where it basically does port forwarding for any/all possible ports.
Double NAT isn't as bad as it sounds these days.

Now to your question...
They exist, they're mostly targeted at ISPs though, so might be a harder find than other things.
They might also be older, as basically all customers also want their ISP to provide Wi-Fi, which a bridge modem won't.
Anyway,
You'll have to know what DSL were talking about, there's... ADSL, ADSL2+, VDSL, VDSL2, etc

One old-ass model we used to use back in the day was.. a Siemens 5200, but that's ADSL2 at best, definitely not VDSL.

Boarding is usually a shitshow in its own right and they aren't even paid for it.

 

You'd think with all the cereals we're producing, it'd be ubiquitous, but all the stuff at the grocery store was either Kelloggs, Kraft, or General Mills.
I think Shreddies are made in Canada, but owned by Post?

There seemsto be a few more options out west than here in QC.
I already get granola from a small local place which is great, but surely there's a Canadian version of corn flakes or rice krispies or whatnot somewhere.

I'm also open to just making my own.

English message:

As some of you may have noticed, there's an instance with 1.1M bots reposting reddit posts and comments accross communities in several other instances.  

I expect there are multiple valid opinions on the subject and this thread is meant to get a feeling of everyone's opinion on the situation. 

You might also want to read lemmy.ca's discussion on that here which is a pretty decent thread about the subject.  

Things that I think need to be pointed out:  

  • alien.top currently has 1.1M bots, only 6 of those are weekly users logging in. 
  • together they've made 1.59M comments accross a multitude of communities in other instances.
  • That project claims to be trying to get reddit users to switch to lemmy. 
  • They have a portal to allow reddit users to claim and take over their bot persona. 
  • alien.top has a single local community, the bots all post on different instances with copies of different subreddits.

I don't have an exhaustive list of such communities,  I haven't found an official one.  I'll post a fewfrom my personal blocklist in a comment below. 

And a note on the upcoming 0.19 release: 

  • the new user-level instance block feature will block all the communities of the blocked instances,  but will not block these users' posts or comments if they are done on another instance's community.  

My opinion isn't any more valid then anyone else's so I'll put it in a comment below.

Our users' input is welcomed.

What do you, dear users of sh.itjust.works, think about federation with them?

Thanks


Message français:

Comme certains d'entre vous l'ont peut-être remarqué, il y a une instance peuplée de 1,1M de bots qui copient ees posts et commentaires Reddit dans plein de communautés sur plusieurs autres instances.

Il y a plusieurs opinions sur le sujet et ce fil de discussion vise à prendre le pouls de l'opinion générale sur la situation.

Je vous suggères de lire la discussion chez lemmy.ca à ce sujet ici, discussion intéressante. 

Quelques points qui, selon moi, doivent être soulignés :

  • alien.top compte actuellement 1,1 million de robots, dont seulement 6 sont des utilisateurs hebdomadaires qui se login.
  • collectivement, ils ont déjà fait 1,59 million de commentaires dans une multitude de communautés dans différentes instances.
  • Ce projet proclame essayer de convertir des utilisateurs de Reddit à passer à Lemmy.
  • Il existe un portail pour permettre aux utilisateurs de Reddit de prendre contrôle de leur version bot.
  • alien.top a une seule communauté locale, les bots publient tous sur différentes instances, des copies de différents subreddits.

Je n'ai pas de liste exhaustive de ces communautés, à première vue, je n'en trouve pas une liste officielle.  Je mettrai dans un commentaire ci-dessous quelques communautés que j'ai bloqué au niveau personnel. 

Pour finir,  une note sur la version 0.19 de lemmy qui s'en vient :

  • La nouvelle fonctionnalité pour bloquer une instance au niveau d'un uutilisateur bloquera toutes les communautés d'une instance bloquée, mais ne bloquera pas les publications ou les commentaires de ces utilisateurs s'ils sont publiés dans une communauté d'une autre instance.

Mon opinion n'est pas meilleur qu'une autre et je mettrai plutôt dans un commentaire ci-bas.

Les commentaires de nos utilisateurs sont les bienvenus.

Que pensez-vous, cher utilisateurs de sh.itjust.works de la fédération avec eux?

Merci

 

Hi,
If you know what spam I'm talking about, I'm sorry.
If you don't, don't bother looking for it, it's honestly not worth your time.
Either way, we've taken steps to reduce the impact of such an event.
As always, if you see any, report it.   Thanks,

Bonjour,
Si vous savez de quel spam je parle, désolé.
Sinon, perdrez pas votre temps, ça en vaut la peine.
Dans un cas comme dans l'autre, nous avons pris des mesures pour limiter l'impact de ce genre d'événement.
Comme toujours, si vous en voyez, faites un signalement.
Merci,

 

Annonce en français:
Des ajouts ont récemment été faits à la liste d'instances bloquées.

Comme celles-ci étaient des instances connues pour héberger du contenu illégal, incluant des communautés pedo, loli, etc. elles ont été bloquées sans discussion préalable dans l'!agora@sh.itjust.works.

Vous pouvez consulter à tout moment la liste d'instances bloquées au bas de cette [page] (https://sh.itjust.works/instances) dans la section Blocked Instances.

Merci !


English message:We've recently added a few instances to the block list.

We usually made a discussion and vote in !agora@sh.itjust.works, but this latest batch was a bunch of instances confirmed to be hosting CSAM, CP, pedo and/or loli content.
Since these are illegal, they've been removed without Agora threads.

At any time, you can see the current list of blocked instances here, all the way down in the Blocked Instances section.

Thanks

 

Message en Français:
Comme certains ont pu constaté, il y a eu beaucoup de spam de contenu gore ce matin a travers une panoplie de communautés. 

L'utilisateur en question a été banni localement et leur contenu effacé.   Ils ne sont pas encore bannis sur leur instance mère, mais vous ne devriez plus tomber dessus tant que vous naviguez avec votre compte sh.itjust.works.

Désolé pour ceux qui ont eu à subir cette merde et merci à tous ceux qui l'ont signalé.  N'hésitez pas à signaler ce genre de chose quand ça arrive, soit via le petit drapeau (report), ou sur le chat matrix. 

Pour balancer le gore, voici un chat qui dort: 

Miaou

English message:As some of you may have had the displeasure to see, there was a user spamming links to gore content earlier today accross several unrelated communities.

They've since been banned locally and their content removed.  While they have yet to be banned on their home instance, you shouldn't be exposed to their content as long as you browse from here your sh.itjust.works account.

Thanks to everyone for reporting it, feel free to reach out either through the flag report icon or the matrix chat whenever something like that happens again. 

Here's a cat to balance out the gore: 

 

Meow
