    Depending on how much the investor's interest rates are they could be covering maintenance costs, making a profit, and still charging less than a new mortgage at current interest rates. So depending on your landlord and how much profit they're trying to squeeze, renting might be a better option than buying right now.

    It's a strawman because they're trying to shift the focus from one thing (the system is broken) to another (Republicans are bad)

    That's a strawman argument. Pointing out that one of them is worse than the other ignores the real problem - the system is broken.

    I'm not a CPA, but I don't think you can write off something that already made a profit. How would that even work, if companies were able to write off predicted ad revenue? They could make up any value and never have to pay any taxes at all.

    I don't think write-offs have anything to do with them removing these episodes.

    I don't think they can write it off either way, though. It only makes sense to write off shows that haven't made money. It's just "retiring" when you're taking about something that's already been released. There's no ulterior profit motive, unlike when they write off unreleased movies and shows.

    You also don't need to show any ID for a business to meet "know-your-customer" regulations. Can you get a phone number without revealing your identity?

    I tried printing a disk with the bed at 70c and it looks better. Going to try with it even higher. This sheet has a +0.350 z offset compared to my normal PEI sheet, so that might contribute to low heat conduction.

    My bl-touch mount broke so I've been doing manual bed leveling for a while. I just finished printing a 185x185mm part (half of a dactyl keyboard) and the first layer looked great from the top.

    Edit: I also deleted the old bed mesh from my klipper config when the bl-touch broke

  • I'm printing with PLA on a "PEO" print bed (really a textured PEI), on my heavily modified ender 3, and there's a pattern on the bottom of my first layer that I'm trying to get rid of. The top of the first layer looks fine, and changing the z offset in either direction doesn't help. I've also tried slowing down the print speed because I thought the extruder might be skipping, but I'm still seeing it at 10mm/s. Any idea what could be causing it, and how to get rid of it? Pic: https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/31cd6cef-16de-47b3-995f-197f7d0b432d.jpeg Edit: the first layer went down from the bottom left to the top right, but the pattern I'm seeing is perpendicular to the extruder path
