I had similar printing issues with some filaments, due to heat creep. The printing would start ok on mine, but after the printer had been running awhile it would print like that. In my case heat was travelling up the hot end and Bowden tube, which was causing printing issues after a certain amount of time had passed. Some filaments were more sensitive about this than others, my cheap plain filaments and my multicolor filaments wouldn't print well, but medium to high quality plain filaments would print fine.

There are a lot of things that can contribute to heat creep, I ended up replacing my hot end and Bowden tube, and lowered my print temperature some.

220° is pretty high, I would try to figure out why it won't print below that temperature and see what you can do to bring that down. See if that fixes it.

Truly the end of an era

The steam recovery media let's you reinstall just the OS while preserving user files.

As long as you haven't done anything too dramatic like converting your file system to BTRFS

Edit: This will downgrade you to a much older version of SteamOS though, from which you would then have to update back to current. This can be a problem because some early issues (like the OLED deck not being able to connect to wifi 6E networks) can make it frustrating to update.

I'm guessing they maybe have fully blind players, and partially blind players. The partially blind have to wear masks.

Just a guess though.

Edit: so actually according to Wikipedia:

Teams are permitted to use sighted athletes as goalkeepers and guides;

All players, except for the goalkeeper, are blindfolded.

There are leagues where partially blind people are allowed to play, they're ranked by level of impairment and can have x number of players at higher vision ratings.

Presumably the hand grips on the deck keep enough of a gap under the deck to keep this from being an issue.

Clearly this shows that North Korea is the peak example of a successful society, and that the rest of the world should aspire to mimic them in all their wise practices.

Here's the original news article, it's actually about boneless chicken wings being allowed to have occasional bones.

With the lower cut Epic takes games could be cheaper there, but Valve uses their dominant market position to force developers to set the same price on other marketplaces if they want to also be on Steam, which is essentially required.

I've heard that brought up, but I've never seen actual proof of it. It clearly doesn't apply to sale prices though, because other stores basically always have lower sale prices than steam itself.

I've been playing a whole lot of Monster Hunter Rise. It runs really good, great performance and battery life (which makes sense considering it was originally a switch game). It's my first real Monster Hunter game and I'm having a great time with it.

Only issues I've encountered: switching between docked and handheld play causes a minor fps drop until I restart the game. The game also has a utterly bizarre bug where if you're playing with a controller designated as the 2nd player controller, any monster roar will drop the fps to 0 for like a minute. Super bizarre, no idea what kind of spaghetti code could cause that.

Edit: for anyone interested, Fanatical has a build your own monster hunter bundle right now that's an incredibly good deal. Can get MH Rise + it's big Sunbreak expansion for $11, previous best deal I had seen was $18 for the two. They also have MH World and a lot of other past MH games.

That's the part of France that I want to visit.

Steam also has a lot of other stores selling their games though. Unless epic is giving it away for free, I'm probably going to get a better deal through a fanatical bundle or someone else than I would on epic.

I see some larger publishers bemoan the fact that Epic hasn't caught on, but it should be pretty obvious why. Markets that favor the buyer more than they favor sellers will typically attract the largest user base, and the sellers don't have a choice to not sell where the buyers are.

Epic giving away free games is a nice buyer friendly action, but literally everything else they've done, from paid exclusives to poor client experience isn't favorable to buyers. They've created a market that no buyers want to use unless the product is free or literally not available anywhere else.

Giving publishers/devs better cuts is great, but it does nothing for you if all the buyers are on Steam instead.
