8am, temperature in the office 31 degrees celsius and rising. Off to the lake! 😀

That heatwave...

Got a beach tent, so I can temporarily move office to a lake nearby. We'll see how that works out today 😆

@janboddez @ersatzmaus

Both valid options if this was the last parcel I expect in my life 😂

@mattonthehill

I know, right?! Sounds like I'm making up stupid problems here, but the amount of times this has already happened to me is just insane... 😂

I really need parcel services to start sending me a notification roughly 15 to 30 minutes before my parcel actually arrives.

I need to pee real bad, but I know as soon as I lock the bathroom door behind me, it'll ring at the door and I'll miss it 😆

@ericbuijs

That's coming untouched from an Anycubic Mega-S.

@leadore

What do you call it? :)

@squaregoldfish

That said, if you're still holding back because of the initial investment, the Ender 3 is an absolute steal for ~$150 to $170!

@squaregoldfish

Decent value for money mostly:

It has a rather sturdy "unibody" frame and can be assembled within minutes. Separate stepper motor and endstop for each Z-axis. The ultrabase is awesome to print on, I never had to use glue or tamper with bed adhesion otherwise. Firmware is open-source and can be replaced. Comes with a spool of filament.

The Ender 3 certainly rivals it in value for money, but if you can afford to pay a little extra, the Mega S seems to be the better package.

@n8zug

Thanks for ruining my appetite 😉

Opened a new pack of toast and they all got a big hole in the middle. That's... rather inconvenient.

@gravityisforsuckers

Is that the successor to freshmeat.net? Good lord, those memories.

@CocoCoconuts

I did!

@gravityisforsuckers

Yes, I do, even though I really think common sense applies here. It's fine to have different workflows and to enforce them. However in that case what really irks me is him just asking me to do more work to literally achieve the exact same result in the end.

Btw, sent you a pull request for rmw 😊

Mighty groot-looking!

@novenary

Yes, I went the extra mile because I believe it's less time consuming and easier to review them, once they're split up in logical pieces. That's common practice for a good reason.

He's acting out of spite here, asking me to do more work to literally get to the exact same result eventually. To teach me a lesson? Silly.

If he doesn't care about these projects anymore, that's fine. Just say that and I'll be understanding. Just don't behave like a condescending dick.

@novenary

I mean, he doesn't owe me anything. It's his right to ignore this PR, his right to disagree with this PR and his right to close this PR.

However it becomes rather condescending if you're asking your contributors to jump through hoops to get their changes merged. He already had reviewed them and they were reasonably partitioned. It may not be his style of workflow, but then just say "thank you" and "I'd prefer it some other way next time".

This is public, I'm not exposing anything.

@tbr

Being a maintainer of several open source projects myself, I'm well aware of that. I'm not trying to tell him how to run his projects, I'm merely explaining why I did what I did. But I find it rather condescending and disrespectful asking me to jump through hoops to get my changes accepted. It would have been just as much work for him to click "Merge" instead of "Close" now.

For future pull requests I would have been happy to respect his workflow preference.

Unsolicited help? We're talking about open source projects, ffs. If you don't like maintaining open-source projects, don't maintain open-source projects.
