  • There’s the possibility that there’s something else at play that we don’t know, and maybe cannot fathom.

    The possibility that there is something hidden that we are not aware of is why Bell’s Theorem was such a revolution in physics. The experimental proof of Bell’s theorem won the nobel prize. There are no hidden variables. Probability is fundamental, not a result of some unknown process.

    The premise wasn’t that the computer was 100% perfect. It was 99.9% perfect. That is its good enough such that you should assume its correct. The premise could have said 75% and it wouldn’t change anything. Saying 99% makes it simpler for the reader to assume that the computer is correct.

    The computer is not supernatural. The premise does not say the computer is 100% accurate. The premise does not say that the computer can violate known laws of physics. The premise is that the computer knows your behavior.









  • Then the experiments may be flawed. We dont know what we dont know

    That’s the same excuse flat Earthers make. Yes every single observation made over the past 100 years could have been wrong and tomorrow we find out that all of quantum mechanics is wrong.

    There are a near infinite number of variables involved, but if we knew every variable, we could solve it.

    Take a single electron. You can’t define it’s position and motion (momentum) simultaneously. It is fundamentally unsolvable. There aren’t even hidden variables that we are unaware of. Bell’s inequality has been experimentally proven many times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell’s_theorem



  • You didn’t read the article. The computer isn’t watching you flip the coin and then switching the boxes at the last moment.

    The boxes are fixed before you enter the room. The computer has already predicted your choice.

    Which is beside the point that the OP posited using a random process to make the choice for you. The method of randomness isn’t the issue. That’s why I said a Geiger counter could be substituted for a coin flip.




  • I went through the exact problem 2 days ago on my U1.

    I was trying to print a very thick cylinder, with pctg directly on the bed (no pla support). Extremely simple and it kept failing. Glue stick and upping the bed temp didn’t seem to help. I also slowed acceleration. Oddly fewer wall loops helped so it made me think it was warping. I tried z hop and finally got it printing but it could have been a combo of doing the previous steps too.

    It could also be a bed leveling problem. The mesh is only for head 1 and I was printing with head 4. Bed mesh is possible because I first tried printing 4 at once and 1 was good, 2 had a severe layer line but finished, and one failed. I then couldn’t re print that last one and kept having the failures where I tried everything above.
