This is using Mozilla Firefox, newest version. When I go on youtube it won't let me search videos. When I try searching it simply refreshes the page with the "Recommended for you" stuff. If I click on a link to youtube there is no screen for the video, I can only read the comments really, I can't even click on the "more info" tab
If a youtube video is embedded such as the ones in the "Song of the Day" thread they work fine. Any idea how to fix this? As far as I know I have latest flashplayer and java is enabled
Any ideas how to fix this

does it work on I.E. or chrome? if so, try reinstalling FF (probably easiest thing to do)

Google Chrome doesn't work for me. When I install it it always says the webpage is unavailable.
Addons I have are Adobe DLM and Microsoft.NET framework assistant

It seems it won't let me reinstall either :/
It won't let me download the installation set up thing for some reason

then I think there are bigger issues then youtube if IE wont work, FF wont reinstall, and chrome wont install - you probably have a virus of some sort disabling your internet, run a scan with an anti-virus (Avast is my preference, but there are many other capable free ones) - if you get errors and are unable to do so, try it in safe mode

I had a lot of trouble getting videos to work properly on Firefox too.
Adobe's automated flash player installer for FF is messed up.

I had to install several times, completely uninstall and re-install a couple of times before it worked as it was supposed to.
I'm sorry I can't remember what I did that fixed it and give more specific information than the above.

    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
