I have resumed the folly of 3d printing after a nearly year long hiatus
place your bets until how long it'll be until I'm ranting about how printers are a sin against man and god

I'm printing a calibration cube because I don't know what state I left this printer in.
presumably in the standard state of "it kinda works but I don't trust it"

I probably should have updated octoprint before hitting go, and I probably should have done some manually leveling, but hey, it seems to be printing so far.

also the filament has been sitting in a garage, loaded into the printer, for a year.
it's probably really shit by now. as soon as the cube finishes I'm gonna need to swap to something, anything, else -

well, there's something going on with the z-axis, but it printed more or less.

I've also got to switch to a different power supply for the pi that's running octoprint, and upgrade the pi to a new OS (which requires backing up and restoring existing octopi settings) because my python is EOL.
so it's working, but I'm still sighing a lot

anyway I loaded new filament and I'm printing a chep cube again!

okay I printed a CE5P calicat after attempting to fix the z-offset issue. It still is horrible.
possibly this is mostly a temperature issue: I'm using the stock temperatures but I think I upgraded this to an all-metal hotend that needs to run higher?

reprinted with higher temp. it's better, but still bad.
so probably there's another issue. I remember I did a lot of rebuilding of the hot end in the final days of using this before, so who knows what's clogged in there?
I printed on a raft because the z-offset is still fuckt

a higher temp (220°C) and 110% flow rate seems to be working well enough.

had to dig out my flir phone to take pictures for silly cellphone reasons.
Anyway, this is the 220°C 110% flow calicat. It looks way better, right?

So I foolishly started a 9-hour print and yeah it's still shit.

also octoprint is yelling that my pi is undervolting. I'm specifically using a dedicated 5v 2.5A wall-wart, how is it STILL undervolting? ugh.

I need to throw away and replace every part of this setup and I don't have the time, money, energy, or space to do that

Thanks to everyone who has given suggestions for how to fix this. Unfortunately most of them require me standing up for longer than I can manage, so I've mainly just fiddled with settings (since I can do that from my bed).
but when I can, I'll be:
* calibrating the extruder
* trying to clear clogs in the hot-end
* calibrating the z-axis offset (which is a multistep nightmare in this setup)

Certo, resta da capire perché, con questi sponsor
https://www.python.org/psf/sponsors/
abbia un budget annuale di 5 milioni di USD, perché 750 k facciano quindi tanta differenza, e perché questi li sponsorizzino malgrado non abbiano un sistema di protezione della supply-chain e dei pacchetti del repo principale.
È vero che se riuscissero a fare quei soldi con le donazioni dei singoli avrebbero gli stessi soldi e meno padroni.
Ricordo che il FOSS è gratis ma molto costoso.
Quindi donate, quanto potete.

A 19 anni ero convinto che di lì a poco sarei partito per un tour mondiale con la mia band hard rock.
A 24 rispondevo alle chiamate in un call centre.
Wat de fak is andato storto in quei fatidici 5 anni?

Viaggiatori, è quasi tutto pronto per il mio viaggio a La Gomera (isole Canarie).
Durante il viaggio cercherò di postare foto e pensieri, si Pixelfed, e sul neonato gruppo "Viaggi e Foto" su #Feddit (https://www.feddit.it/c/viaggi).
Ogni giorno scriverò qualcosa, Nun mini blog del giorno, anche sulla sezione dedicata del mio sito:
https://simoneviaggiatore.wordpress.com/la-gomera/
Restiamo in contatto! 🙂

La targa per Giuseppe Pinelli è stata vandalizzata per la sesta volta
È stata vandalizzata per la sesta volta la targa in ricordo di Giuseppe Pinelli, ferroviere e attivista anarchico morto il 15 dicembre 1969 nei locali della questura di Milano. La targa è posizionata in piazzale Segesta, a San Siro, non lontano dalla sua abitazione.
da https://www.milanotoday.it/politica/vandalizzata-targa-pinelli-ottobre-2025.html
Aggiungo un'altra foto, che nell'articolo non compare, di un cartello apparso questa estate "tra una vandalizzazione e l'altra" che riporto testualmente:
"Giuseppe Pinelli: assassinato e vilipeso. Il Cippo in Piazzale Segesta, in memoria di Giuseppe Pinelli, partigiano-ferroviere-anarchico, ancora una volta è stato vandalizzato per mano della topaia fascista, avvalendosi delle coperture del governo di destra.
Un governo che vuole riscrivere la storia e che utilizza il Decreto "Insicurezza" per reprimere le lotte rivendicative di lavoratori, studenti e movimenti vari.
Una legge bocciata anche dalla Corte di Cassazione, ma l'attuale governo, come già nel ventennio fascista, risponde: "Ce ne freghiamo".
