Yeah, it's not a quote.
Yeah, we got that, thats the point of this discussion.
People feel confused by the way you use the " sign in your sentences and from great confusion arises great insanity.

Oh, there's nothing to "be insanity for" It's Just a " and nothing else

Firecat, the (") is meant to denote a quote, or to express dialogue in a story. Your use of bold font was at least more proper than your quotation marks. Quoting someone, and this is important, now, does not have to be in quote tags. I.e., "I said It's not a quote >" is a quote made by you, whereas:
Potato pancake goulash rice krispy treats
<--- is not a quote, because that is the first time anybody has said that, whether its in quote tags or not.

It is his artistic freedom. He wants to express the very special nature of his wisdom by using these quotes. You have to see the deeper meaning behind it.

Actually I find this weird typing thing he does kind of interesting.

It's as simple as pressing Ctrl + U, I, B, and Enter keys.

Right? It's not even art... it's a god damn masterpiece on occasion. I mean, we're have here at TH, with the what? Six of us that are active? Whatever anyway, we have a Van Gogh of typography here and I don't think we're appreciative enough. We need a flamer kitten day. Or week... maybe a month. Fuck it, 2013 is hereby FireCat year!

Go ahead and code some up. Check if the last key pressed was a space, then do a random range from about 1 to 5 to determine if quotes should be added for no reason, another random of about 1 to 3 to see if there should be a double set of quotes for... added emphasis, maybe? Whatever his reason is. And then that'd probably be a pretty decent simulation.

Although I can't imagine you could code tags like that, anyway, but hell.

No, no no no, no no no no no.

No. No we don't. Those are not the sort of holidays we should be encouraging.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    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
