It's like on Family Feud when Steve Harvey asks a question that is obviously asking for a sexual joke response and then acts dumbfounded when he gets that exact response.

@dangillmor They had an article about the Dutch government today that was incomprehensible. They just tried so hard to frame it as a standard political quibble, that it completely lost the plot. The fascist plan to separate migrants from their children was completely secondary.

I finally made sense of the article by remembering that it's the New York Times and the only thing they understand is run of the mill politics.

@b0rk the top right confused me at first. I read it a couple times thinking "why would ANDing with all Fs set anything to 0?"

I eventually realized you were only showing the 16 bits and implying that x had more digits to the left of that.

It's totally a valid way to show it. But it took me an extra couple reads to understand.

@chris_gammell I've been printing Matterhackers MH Build Series PLA for years

@ringslinger @zadrozny the toybox is supposed to skip the steep learning curve, at least for the beginning. That's their whole pitch for why you'd get their instead of a Creality or something.

The prints should look decent without much effort

@wbm312 does this apply to that CNN guy that always tweets the president's itinerary?

I finally decided to figure out why my Raspberry Pi has been backdriving the LCD on my 3D printer. Apparently they put 2 different overvoltage protection diodes on the Vbus. One connected to 24V and one connected to 3.3V. The diode network on the 3.3V is connected all wrong.

As far as I can tell, the 5V from the USB doesn't even connect to anything...
