Spending too much on diversity and weapons.

I have a theory about why the hidden hand supported the suffragette movement

  • The white feather thing where the feminist cunts were handing out white feathers to men of military age in civvies.
  • The wimmin generally also acquired the skill of “the brush off” having been pestered by pushy men for sex if they are even quarter attractive. and the manipulative liason probably.
  • The whole bernays massive trick thing to get wimmin to smoke by hiring some wimmin stooges to pose as suffragettes and say “liberated wimmin smoke” and that meme soon taken up by charleston types eh!
  • so the hidden hand get to add an extra 30% of cunts to their existing male-cunt management eh! soon to hit 50% eh! maybe even bigger cunts than the male-cunt management?

Actually hidden hand describes them quite well I think as they are they types that have a jacket with one false arm fitted and their hidden hand pops out from wherever eh!

And as for my use of the word “cunt” we have been oversensitized to it, what a lot of people probably do not know is a lot of towns had a street called gropecunt lane where unsurprisingly the prositutes were… now to trace that back to when they started renaming those streets I would say is the hidden hand giving more scandal power to their stable-whores… temple-whores… (Actually that may have been the desired side effect of an honest attempt to remove commonality of prostitution, tricksy-fuckers they are! ) I mean, Dick, Prick, Cock, Knob etc. are all still acceptable terms of endearment LOL

I think the proof of what I say can be found in the child-tranny nhs scandal, mainly women and probably homosexuals involved and then mainly can be seen in the utterly ludicrous trannies in wimmins sport shit, that really is the test of women who are utter cunts and just want to belong to the zeitgeist and the better women. I mean these trannies only m2f in wimmins sports, not f2m in mens sport eh! Trannies typically hammering wimmin in whatever wimmins sport they enter, except that ludicrous m2f antique runner who unsurprisingly failed, too old. Never been a fan of Rowling, introducing children to witchcraft, but she seems to stand on the right side of that argument and is in the hounded hectored minority of women eh! (Where she was previously lauded for the witchcraft thing eh!)

It’s the perfect circular argument these psy-co. types have hit upon, they are only intolerant of intolerance of their dictats eh! Most cannot see the thrird part about it being intolerance of what the zeitgeist thinks is right, the lefts-dictats eh! Only see the logic of it somehow being the high ground to be simply intolerant of intolerance. But! intolerance of swine at the cuntrols seems reasonable.

I’d say an interesting example for your consideration is that of Gillian Andersons new book, “Want”, about female lust eh! (Good choice of a word being close to “Wanton” a line/gradient between want and wanton eh!) Not read it, just read about it, But the article most recently is about her experiencing “shame” about the book, not sure if she really is a Catholic like her X-Files character, sounds like she may be. Found the need to hide her own fantasy among 170+ others eh! But also odd duchovny was a sex addict so possibly they are both just the usual product of the t.v. propaganda industry (miley cyrus for example, the story of her father and the bimbo is funny/educational). But I would not want to force it too far back the other way to chastity belts and burning at the stake. Gillian can suckle on my sauce-pipe pacifier any time she likes LOL

Gillian Anderson: I was surprised by shame of sharing sexual fantasies

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cq6r14767rro

That said, and I believe that to be roughly true, I do not blame all women for jumping at the chance… some women are competent… (actually competent is not the word, good is the word, you can be competent at being evil) looking back at my television watching history over say 40 years I do not think anyone can deny that all television is essentially propaganda… say like Space 1999 LOL back when 1999 was in the somewhat-distant future LOL all those purple haired bimbos operating the computers LOL… Purple haired bimbos being the only thing about it that came true LOL…. but the fucking message now on television is largely fucking mental and a pack of lies I would say…. And as for a lot of modern fucking comedy! ffs! only funny in that they have the nerve to call it comedy! (Mind you I guess a significant portion of old comedy was crap too, like say alf garnett)

But the public gets what the public are told they want eh! You voted for it eh! Or by voting you agreed to let a party that got less that 40% of the vote dictate to you. By not voting you still get the cunts dictating to you!

Fucking boeing diversity wastes of space... or space-station invasion trojan-horse?

Like, seriously, surely Russians could have launched a better probability mission, but now, well all money really gone to another direction eh! This ludicrous shit about what language a set of people speak or how lgbt they are eh! stm our (western nato) leaders are simply bigger swine… believe their own propaganda about being the good-guys eh! experience would seem to show they can push through what they want by force or sneak method eh!

In fact resources probably been diverted into saboteurs of any rocket launch attempt eh! or pretending they cannot launch rockets… or just quite crap! one of the three! or a combination!

the infinite ammo or the infinite armor cheat eh! excalibur and it’s scabbard eh! the witch stole the scabbard! (yeah… but, Arthur wanting to burn Guinevere at the stake (actually Mordred and Morgana were manipulating the whole thing to an extent, maybe Merlin was trapped by Morgana at that point? I think Mordred took over while Arthur went to war with Lancelot in France) and Lancelots rescue killing Sir whoever eh!… Arthur probably had it coming…. Christianity eh! Magic eh! And the whole other backplot involving the saracen infiltrator and mordred and the foreign mercenaries eh! Saxons were certainly Vortigerns mercenaries… I bet they do not teach “night-of-the-long-knives” in lower-comprehensive history/english nowadays eh!. And… sounds like that cunt Vortigern (maybe the story is not entirely accurate and Vortigern was not so bad that fate still showed him favor) had it coming but got away from night-of-the-long-knives but more to do with him being useful as a tool-king as he was enamoured with his daughter and supposedly some saint prayed for him and a meteorite struck his castle! which is a biblical thing… probably kind of reverse engineered into the story of that account of that english (maybe briton/welsh, maybe also roman) saint. pray for your enemy… but an irony in that… knowing “pray for your enemies so that burning coals might be heaped on their heads” is not how you should pray for your enemies… if god sees fit to heap burning coals on their head that is not because of you wanting him to… well talking about degrees of whatever…. )

I guess to an extent it’s the “chivalric” trap… you get caught up in the inevitable circle-jerk of the round-table…. That why I think an anarchist base is important, bearing in mind God saw fit to give us free-will who are we to argue LOL…. protestant LOL…. but nothing great can be achieved by one man… nothing great can be achieved without God ? Yeah, OK Lancelot eh! something great by one man…. Or, Galahad, or Percival, or many others probably… but, ripple… but stm a quite powerful time-ripple…. History does not repeat itself but often Rhymes I think is an old adage, sounds like Mark Twain.

I guess it;s funny arthur claiming the high ground with guinevere…. merlin warned him… when actually arthur is father of the fatal sprog mordred eh!

As a story with lots of good plot the Arthurian legends are good. Nennius is a good read, and another old Briton compendium I cannot remember the name of that contains the story of the sea wall of the 100 of March or something which is classic! (something like the red book or something? maybe the mabinogion..) Actually as I recall the modern archaeology seems to show big section of Wales went undersea like the story says. The Welsh bard thing eh! Songs/Tales round the roundhouse fire eh! Perhaps much more technically advanced here and then one or several global collapse event affected here to so a degree of regression….. lost a lot of the learning…. (A good scene from threads where post kaboom they were showing childrens tv programs on video to children to teach them… what they going to learn from the fucking telletubbies eh! camberwick-green/trumpton etc. thats real man t.v. LOL Oh! No! Windy Miller is out of Grain, what we going to do? Call the Fire Brigade eh!)

I Guess if you were to date Nennius’ claim of arrival of a subset of the Trojans (who split into 3 tribes) to this island that would be about 1500bc eh! And the whole 1500bc collapse thing may indicate like the tales collected in that compendium include those of the inhabitants who accepted the Trojans or maybe a longer period of tribulations after Trojans arrived after they had done some ancient building wonders on these islands like the sea wall of that area? Or maybe Troy fell a century or two before the collapse event?

Of course another funny aspect of Nennius’ Trojan story is they were “Giant Killers” so maybe why the locals were happy to see them… get rid of those pesky Giants, though sure not all bad… heading round to the story of Bran and London eh! ( did not mean that last phrase to be so ironically accurate… Bran’s head eh!)

But also funny to pan forward in time to King (St. as well I think) Alfred of The Saxons… cunning plan to offer the trouble-and-strife as a hostage to the viking war-chief… Yeah that’s a good tale as well! (not that the viking war-chief was a particularly bad-guy as a hack-and-slay types go… saxons no historic angels as far as that goes… nor the britons/caledonians/loegrians….)

I guess lesser-IQ people know more effective techniques…. “the club is all their law” as an old Digger song goes….

If those guys (space-knights! LOL) in space station got spare capacity, would be interesting to see if some spectrometery indication of a sea wall around the area of lost Wales… and spot the WW1 chemical weapons dumps at sea eh! probably not going to beam down and execute the perps. eh! 2000ad story abc-warrior thread where deadlock was of the space-knights with beam-down and fuck-you-up capability eh!

Actually another old tale you might think was legend but apparently true is the Tale of Caractacus… sounds like a Roman name eh! Possibly Loegrian resistance to the Romans… Shipped to Rome…. Perhaps are roman names of those guys… Vercingetorix as well eh! did not have such a happy-ending… not sure of the timeline of Caractacus and Vercingetorix… could be Caractacus was after, don’t get trapped in a hill-fort/troy eh! (but then don’t run away in disarray like that whole Afghanistan/Kabul thing (I mean the English fiasco in 18-whatever) eh!) Learn logistics better eh! (French our close cousins as Asterix and Nennius say… the tale of the coranians (coronaid?) in Nennius not just rhyming history but fucking haiku or limerick or something eh!) Oh yeah and the thing that made me quite believe Nennius is amount of Roman emperors actually died here as he claimed…. when I checked…. I mean I did not know a single Roman emperor had died here before reading Nennius and then checking….

I guess at the end of this post I’d say, net effect of feminism is “a lot of bitches” a lot of them not even female eh” I mean not just the trannies, but the male bitches that realise how easy it is to dominate wimmin by both physically-bullying for them and simply out-gossiping them… bullying in modern terms involves bulky types who may or may not be able to beat you in a fight but you would be nlp-framed as attacking them in any fight….

Notes on setting up a Creality V3 S1 Plus

Saw an interesting claim buying a 3d printer will save you money on parts…. LOL actually theoretically, this part is cheaper than an off the shelf part but my openscad design is super-awesome custom LOL but…. only test print 1 of ….. testing the concept of twist-lock and dimensions required… the rough top edge of this print lower lip may be ironically good… but notch maybe too small LOL, but it certainly can print an e3d nozzle holder adaptor quite nicely that is like only 20mm either side of centre LOL… like the “boaty” test, probably little problem… scale it up 5 times and probably a lot more problematic in this 300×300 configuration…. but still a 5xboaty (which you could do easy in a 200×200) still not same as trying a 280×280 frame… ffs.. how long… to get that working… bed levelling off I think and observe the error of last z probe home which is less than the 16(32) combined errors of the supposed levelling grid LOL

Update: had a real funny Chinese-puzzle coil tangle with one of those false knots…. (not a knot LOL but would have been a tangle….) cutting 12 or so metres of filament off to hang on the hanger rather than a full reel back drag on moves and stuff, but two minds as to whether reel backdrag pulls Z axis up as the filament sensor already has lots of drag…. anyway lots of chinese-puzzling later had a coil feeding perfectly…. and after a windowlene wipe of plate with a clean cloth had a stuck print… big,not massive bed area contact in a big circle but still less than 200 x 200 and that is made worse by the grid being too widely spaced and sensors/bed stability not great…. and definitely an issue with solid fill burble with a moderately thin/thick want solid first layer of a part…. but once past the critical zone not a bad print… maybe better with a level bed and bed levelling off…

I guess I will say it is a good print considering the part shape printed entirely without support and minimal bed contact, but could see the bed levelling was crap-printing certain areas and good printing others…

Update: for bed levelling to work needs :

  • a probe accurate to 0.007mm each dab, I am reasonably sure this one is not
  • a grid closely spaced enough to pick up odd dips/rises, the creality firmware is not
  • additionally a z axis that moves when commanded, this one is very jerky and does not

I will post again when done some gcode to prove all these things… i.e. 200 0.02 steps to get a 4mm object through eh! Re-Z home and do the drag test by moving z axis up and back to zero… etc. Think maybe more the Z axis inconsistent moves the problem as the aux level seems reasonably consistent after a bed removal and refit, but also z axis wobble. maybe just the autolevelling crap???

just getting ludicrous nozzle drag after first layer which is OK so seems to imply Z axis… ? several things at once probably.

a good optical/laser reflection depth sensor would easily prove z axis accuracy eh! depending on print surface, are they even 0.007mm accurate?

printing on non-stick eh! plus the x axis belt is shedding shit! Funny, like glue stick did not really stick to the bed LOL… but squeeky clean maybe ironically quite good, but a greasy finger mark probably accentuated…

Update: Actually once you figure out the two crucial subtleties of assembly

  • 1. When assembling the gantry, loosely fit the 4 big allen bolts and then observe the amount of tilt backwards and forwards there still is, I assume you want both sides as central as possible I wobbled it and kind of let it settle… but both aligned and not tilted forwards as that will bring the level probe closer to the bed, probably other artefacts.
  • 2. When fitting the print head to bracket make sure it is not tilting forwards as again that will bring the probe closer to the bed. The probe closeness to print head when retracted is very close on mine.
  • 3. Obviously also do the firmware upgrade, can see what the levelling is doing then.

So once assembled OK, warm her up, do an aux level on the 5 points with the paper drag method. I basically took it to the centre, set the z adjust there then backed it off quite a bit to check the corners and start slowly bringing the z down and adjusting the wheels while at the corner until same drag on all 5 points. Then do an autolevel with nozzle clean.

Then just do not let your gcode do a g28 while cold with some solid nozzle ooze. Just got 4 prints (still less than 200 x 200) worked first time, no “baby stepping” required. Off a single bed level.

the irony/trickiness that you could dial a corner down or level all the others up… so at a point probably to have to respring the bed at a cold yet solid-with-play level

Still I think big prints will still cause problems so would recommend sticking with the 200 x 200 sized printer as the 16 point autolevel grid basically much better over a smaller area. Unless you are a pioneer…. there is a ThomasToka firmware that has the ubl and more flexibility in the abl… sounds good, and supports the creality touch screen, whereas not sure compiling your own marlin does.

Plus when you start looking at how long big prints will take, like my cheap hepa filter adaptor was going to be like 2.5 days with my elaborate draw/push air expansion chambers, and I was like, fuck that! 2 days and a failed 80% print… got it down to 9 hours severely slimming it down! So you are like redesigning the parts into segments so that like 5 hours is max time/filament investment before a potential fail… still too long… So actually designing to fit on a small bed and exploring connector designs a good way to go. Twist slot joint, Dovetail joint eh! funny this 3d printing malarky made me remember my lower comprehensive woodwork and technical design stuff…. nothing in my software experience really did, as like only one elite kid did computers-innit o-level at my school! But my dad bought a dragon32 in hope I might get into it… but… I fell into it by other pathways… (ok thacher govt. actually had a reasonable idea) yeah! but thinking back, my lower, midlands, comprehensive school stuff was great! should have also taught martial arts, and martial arts philosophy… some right arseholes about (and they use martial arts.. including gobby-gaslighting… and certainly “the club is all their law”) and you cannot trust your government… (like your/our government are gravitation of shittiest shites into a constipation chugnut, no point hitting the flush if you cannot shit the stuck-in-there (whitehall/orthanc) shites out eh!) still guess some not cut-out for domination in the physical sphere yet, may have something to contribute… of log scale importance… who determines that importance… the thug and their immediate master eh!

FUCKING HELL I JUST REMEMBERED THEY TAUGHT US SLIDE-RULE LOG-TABLE SHIT EH in the era before computers… (and how mindbogglingly awesome is that, shoulders of giants…) better relearn that shit now eh! (and I hope some true ironic-anarchists do… (that is a circle-a anarchist who respects others right to behave like the average atom (that is to say I think under electron microscope they have generally been observed to not collide… maybe orbit for a while… or is that free-electrons?) ) Perhaps that is where I get my “somewhere between here and there (quite accurately, like a 20 kt would fuck them, maybe a 100 kt to be sure…)” philosophy? who prints your slide rules eh! who prints the bible… murdoch isn’t it? translations from the hebrew to the greek eh! Actually the whatever-his-name-was bible-translator that died for his translation from the latin to “the common tongue” around era of english manipulated civil war eh!

I guess the circle-a is a good paradigm if you think of your little-individual circle-a vs. borganism circle-a eh! going to bump you the fuck off your trajectory if they feel like it eh!

openscad eh! what a clucking masterpiece…. linguistic additive or reductive eh! Just… So…. clucking awesome….

And, prusa-slicer is nice, logical interface, apart from the support, should be easy to visually paint in support and not be so dense its almost like solid…

update : Again there is a lot of contradictory subtlety in printing engineering/functional parts vs. mainly-infill objet-d’art. (only apparent as I had tuned my designs for all solid at slicer I was used to parameters at a .25 layer on my old k8200, still fucking awesome printers (double dual runners) and mainboards) Noticed one of stupid low level of solid base layers doing an infill after like 3 layers and then solid to cover that up on a box and then experiencing a heating burbling effect as the small air gap near the base is solid covered in like 1mm… that fucks it. (but two up 0.05 z shifts up on panel fixed it… and a part printed, not a great part… but… not a complete f-up… perhaps z-axis slack is as much as 0.07?) But basically the wobbly single Y axis is a problem… even on centre printed parts. But I discovered several bed levels in a row seems to get it to a level where if you do not pressure the base it remains stable…. (the moving the bed around stabilises it but do not apply even a nanonewton to it eh! or that fucks it right up again…) still only with parts you could print on a 200×200 printer.. probably with a lot fewer clucking problems…. this is a returner I think.. (I hope they do not try to sell it to any other sap) have to contact creality see what they say.

Gcode to do a repeated level and display results hook up by serial/usb and use python3-serial, there is probably a more refined/quicker way involving just moving the y axis but zero’s change with temperature, maybe the magnetic bed air bubbles a bit. My Z offset 3.4 at bed warm nozzle cold gives bed clearance (as long as no solidified nozzle ooze eh! The nozzle cleaning tool is cool!.) But is a potential longevity issue with this method as the creality firmware saves to eeprom after each level when actually “I don’t think you wanted to do that!, Only Me!” Basic marlin requires you to do an M500 to store depending on the firmware config params I guess, which is better in this bed larger than axis stability case.

To be fair it has printed some quite dimensionally accurate complex small parts, but nothing I could not have printed on a smaller 3d printer, I am yet to think it is capable of printing large parts reliably, which is why I bought it. The ship they are supposedly printing in the printer with a ludicrously small base, in the advert, was either photoshop or printer was built out of different parts LOL

Update: It occurred to me if you adjust z in opposite direction to printing while printing that probably only takes up the slack in the rod thread in 0.5mm so to got down 0.5 may need 2 down 0.5 and one back up 0.5 to realign the thread back to bite point for driving upwards… probably not those precise dimensions… but seems slack rod to nut thread, obviously needs some slack. And 0.5mm is far too large a Z step anyway I’d say. want 0.1mm

But anyway check the gantry is not loose, nuts may appear tight but gantry bit loose. So that improved it, so more consistent bed levels one after another, but the wide gaps in the auto level can miss local depressions. Printing stuff in the middle not too bad, but trying to get a large object closer to edges to get good first layer difficult.

0.16 seems to print better than 0.2..

Currently have a slight hunch doing the m420 does something like uses the grid out of order or something stupid (typical software f-up) like that. So as it does restore levelling after a G28 then do not send the M420 LOL Not tested on a large part yet.

probably also an element of the prusa-slicer guys wanting you to buy a prusa so they did not select the correct settings from extensive testing, the clucking support settings are clucking ludicrous…. like ha-ha-ha have fun with that eh!

There is a type of people (management types) that love that kind of thing, that they are the only ones that know that technicality so they let the newbie fuck-up because they think logically, but the cunt status-quo management is like ha-ha-ha you got that wrong eh! This is how it is done eh!

Update : The Upgrade to the firmware allows even the panel user to see the sensor or z axis cannot replicate a grid. As bad an error as like 0.15 mm out on every measurement point on two consecutive auto levels like 7.5 times a fucking line level, no wonder bed levelling can print in the air! I did my tests using G29 T ; and capturing the result… fucking useless… if it is not accurate to 0.1 mm it is fucking useless… actually it is the embodiment of the global warming scam… a load of shit readings from shit sensors mounted in shit places…

so better print from setting levelling off and a reasonable initial aux level… but still got to ride the Z axis as the fucking Z axis cannot do a reliable 0.2mm single step… probably as much mechanical as an electronic problem…

Update: UPGRADE THE FIRMWARE – mine shipped with previous version and looks like big upgrade, don’t forget to do both, firmware and screen, mine OK doing firmware then screen. It is important to format card on windows with 4096 block, mkfs did not work when setting block size, but can copy files on from linux OK. Just follow instructions and watch viddy, quite easy.

firmware

https://www.creality.com/pages/download-ender-3-s1-plus

I did a print on old firmware, auto level then aux level and they all seemed ok, but it scratched into the bed again. Realised I had previously been doing aux level then autolevel then aux level, did not realise that was important. Lets see how the new firmware works. May still be important, get the z level as the build plate can twist easily due to loose runner, may still be a or the major factor or/and the z axis..

Firstly you may encounter a battered box. Then weirdly packed with a fucking cable left in a stepper that is all bent up.

bed level probe drag on your print as they seem crap, do not retract far enough relative to the trigger point but then already at about -4 of a plus to minus 5 range and little mechanical adjustment.

Then get the bed to the middle and can see easily triggered wobble, the magnetic bed plate removal is absolutely going to fuck up any pre computed bed level.

It has potential… the single runner for the bed and the magnetism.. (would not matter of you were a strong man who could put the bed on silently you would be pulling it up back to front….) was not apparent as a problem to me until now…..

But beyond that, the tricksy caveat is levelling the bed with hotend and bed warm, big difference in Z offset between cold and hot.

just before a print with a clean nozzle filament back about 10mm to stop ooze… can automate that but it is an attended process.

Secondly levelling the bed is a several stage process, do it on the panel and level according to this viddy after set-up with power turned off to give you a reasonable start point, the initial tension maybe wants to be bit tighter than they say, but not tight, he mentions like the spring not truly adjusting the bed. bear in mind, too tight get a bulge in middle, too loose maybe a dip., but the fucking plate is going on different every fucking time with that magnetic snap eh!

then redo it hot after an auto level, using the aux levelling bed points and the paper drag thing. and dialling the corners Think fundamentally have to do this whole thing each print as no chance bed level staying level on a single runner with that level of magnetic bed….

Actually laying on of the bed may be part of good consistency,, notches to screws then lay slowly from the tabs avoiding any snap.

A lot of start gcode will fuck the whole thing up, doing a G28 cold, so figure that one out, I have… once I get the probe drag problem sorted and provided I get a good print, last start I did was excellent but the probe drag was ludicrous. I may post it!

Right, so there is a lot of rotational movement in the hot end mount, felt like enough to fix the drag problem, loosening the hot end and rotating it backwards lifting the front end away from the bed. Waiting for a test print. Yeah, that has fixed/improved that. So far so good.

Plus I think the bent up stepper may not be powering it fully and it may not be capable of a genuine 0.2mm step. Well, a few print runs will show that one way or another. Gantry Z runners maybe got stiff bits.

Now for the major test a 275mm x 205mm part LOL I expect problems as problems are accentuated by the size of the bed.

start gcode for use after doing a warm bed level and aux bed level using the panel, the levelling is really important to get right if wanting to print near the edges.

Late Bronze Age Collapse

Interesting period in time, I had never heard of it until I watched this documentary on The Hittites.

Basically about 14th century BC most of the cities of the dominant civilisations of the time were burnt to the ground, though the guy pointed out some cities only the royal palaces were burnt down so several theories about why it happened all at once.

The core of the problem, the spark perhaps, Climate Change!. There was a big drought for several years/decades causing population to outstrip the food supply. This is a historical fact from tree rings etc.

So climate change is nothing new, but it’s amazing how we are not educated about the past, though to be fair the Hittite texts only more recently translated.

Perhaps the planet just has its ways of keeping the population down every now and then.

And I suppose the technique for defeating chariots is to not engage them in an area where the chariots can get up to speed and have plenty of turning room.

The Hittites – Lost great power of the Bronze Age

So this theory goes that Troy was part of the Hittite collective, and quite an important one if it took the Greeks so many years to defeat it…. It occurred to me could have been the collapse of Troy and its associated grain production areas and place in the supply chain that could have been first domino…. Those calculated domino topples of like 100k dominos are awesome… not sure what record number of dominos toppled in nice patterns/runs is currently! got to go pattern as straight line of domino topple requires like railroad route 66 (minimal slope) or the Nile…
