Recently, jokingly, Husky requested we make a "Seth forum" because I tend to kinda make blog posts every now and then... I thought it was an interesting idea, but of course I'd never be that egotistical [They won't let me :(]

So.

http://crossology.blogspot.com

Any specific point to my blog? Saying what I want about anything at all. Deep, insightful stuff. Pissed off rants. Random blogs of randomness? Yup.

Enjoy.

I'm kind of afraid to look at it. Promise it's safe?

As the proud, new owner of a blogging page, you realize now the topics you can rant about are now far less without you being a hypocrite (Oh no).

You should make a photostream.

"Here I am guyysss brushing my teeth in my cute pajamas!"

Or at least that's how it plays out in my mind. Maybe a photo of you making cinnamon buns with fish oven mits on.

I like it. Kinda gives another look of life, in the Seth-way.

Who said I care what you people think either way? :)

New post :rolleyes:

I recommend you use WordPress over blogger, but that's just my opinion.

The only good blogging services cost money, sigh.

Seth, does making blogs of all sorts use up time? I can never blog better than anyone. :sad:

"...on my girl, which I enjoy doing" I had to re-read the sentence that came from. :p
Good job on making this anyway. You'd probably be able to add a few things to the Prose of the Week.

It's nothing I'm really concerned with. I don't need anything high-tech. Just something that works.

How fast can you type? That's what it depends on. And how fast your ideas come to your fingers, but aside from that, shouldn't be that big of a deal.

How so? The two have nothing to do with each other.

Would be interesting to have a summary of your week, every week. :)

Your life is surprisingly interesting Seth. And if not, you certainly make it sound so.

Probably everyone's life is interesting to OTHER people. It's just typically not that interesting to the person in question.

Probably posting again later.

New post :)

Probably everyone's life is interesting to OTHER people. It's just typically not that interesting to the person in question.

A lot of relations are built upon a not very mathematical equation that looks like this.

Person A's demeanor to person B is = to person B's knowledge of person A.

Kind of an egotistical setup, and surprisingly evident in day to day life (Not so much on the internet though, its different).

If the reverse is true (switching B for A), then the two most likely get along well. If not, then one person's probably got a shit ton about themselves uploaded on facebook or in some blog like website.


So in this case, the mundane seems somewhat interesting (hoorah for good writing skills). So as a result, Seth can write something effectively pretty boring like "I found $5 today", and through us reading it, we feel some sort of happy connection, which is like a faux version of my 'friend equation'.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
