Or people ascribing a political or ideological context to something that doesn’t really have anything to do with it.

“This movie is too political correct” Just because Finn was black.
“This anime isn’t feminist enough”
“Rimworld is sexist”

This is why I could never enjoy Python.

“That’s not pythonic”

Yeah, looks like that exact segment shifted a little while printing. A typical culprit when it comes to localized adhesion issue is finger prints.

Grilled ham sandwich and pork nuggets both exist. And pork noodle soup does sound good.

I don’t think the chicken itself is involved when making scrambled eggs.

Water isn’t wet. In the same way my clothes aren’t clothed and bacteria aren’t sick.

I don’t do CSS, so all I see is <td colspan=“3”>

Agreed. I’ve worked with/under great managers both with and without IT or tech background, and what they both have in common is that they left the IT/tech to the ones in IT/tech roles.

In fact, it took me two years of working with one of them to learn by accident they had an IT background, lol. All along I had been using layman’s analogies to explain what was the problem, what was needed, and why, when I could have just explained it straight.

Anything (edible) you can do with chicken, you can do better with pork

Another one is fibre channel (not to be confused with just running ethernet over fiber).

Me and the IT admin in my previous job had this understanding, as I dealt with field hardware, and he dealt with the “normal” IT stuff.

Once a merger caused the corporate requirement of only allowing whitelisted apps to run, my laptop was simply disappeared from the requirement list. It made it easier for the both of us. I could be on the other side of the world in sudden need of running some proprietary BS software that had to be whitelisted, and nobody wanted me to have to wake someone up to whitelist stuff.

When you deal with network hardware that cost more than most PCs, and the server clusters cost more than a house, some leeway should be allowed.

Doesn’t matter. The OSI model does not stipulate an OSI protocol

No

Plenty of things don’t fit into the TCP/IP model at all. Infiniband, for starters.

A perl script which collects some basic stuff from a few servers in a cluster to get some statistics and compile a quick overview of things to keep an eye on.

A dirty hack that exists now is infinitely better than a properly developed tool that has gone through all stages of approval and quality control at some theoretical point in the future.

My shitty report.pl script was heavily frowned upon when I put it on the production servers. Not only was it an undocumented script, but there was going to be a “proper” tool for that soon. Well, the proper tool never arrived and now three years later everyone is using my script because we are all too lazy to compile a list of warnings manually.

The only step you’re missing is basically what I described above. I recommend grabbing PrusaSlicer, load your STL, and play around with it, as it shows after slicing the various print instructions it comes up with. For starting out, the defaults should work fine.

An STL file describes an object/shape. This needs to be translated into actual print instructions such as move to X/Y position, squirt plastic, move again, etc. This is what a slicer does: It “translates” from a shape to actual print instructions. I’m not sure, but I’ve always assumed that it’s called slicing because it takes the 3D object and creates many vertical slices with print instructions.

I don’t know about your printer specifically, but I guess it takes Gcode (which is what you get as output from a slicer) like most other printers? I suggest you grab PrusaSlicer as it’s very flexible and supports a lot of different printer defaults. Load your STL in there, slice it, transfer the result to your printer, and you should in theory be good to go.

Tip: Start with something small.

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it. Got back into torrenting in 2023 due streaming being less and less attractive
