Hasn’t threads not even turned on activitypub support yet?

But of course, such based individuals will never be billionaires. Specifically because their basedness precludes them from being psychopathic enough to commit the kind of cutthroat, violent exploitation of tens of thousands of workers’ labor inherently necessary to amass such wealth.

subway is that option for “we are on a roadtrip passing through Assfuck, Idaho and for some reason this town of 750 people has a Subway open at 8:30pm” lol

i’m lucky because they don’t exist around my part of the world, so I’ve just never bothered to visit one

looks like that lifelong streak will remain standing

I’ve almost always used PrusaSlicer just because the only printers I had access to were mk3s+.

I’ve started playing with Cura though because A. i wanted some more complex prints that PrusaSlicer struggled to support, and B. We also got some creality cr-30’s functional at my college again. So far I still feel Prusa is easier but that’s likely just familiarity.

Reminder that Panera sold out to venture capital in 2018 and has been actively enshittifying their entire chain ever since

Leeches, the entire lot of them

Hmm. If the common wear items are commodity parts I’d probably be okay with it.

It being a high gear ratio direct drive is a huge plus too. I like my TPU.

I’ll add it to the consideration list for next year’s graduation present to myself. However without a multiextruder head or filament changer (I REALLY wanna do disolvable supports), it’ll be lower on the list. Thanks for providing your experiences!

How much did it run you all in?

I’m a little iffy on jumping on the Chinese supplier train just because I worry about longer term parts and software support. Id rather support a based company like Prusa, except Prusa just isnt keeping up with everyone else in the features/capabilities department… But if the Chinese supplier’s quality passes, it’s hard to argue against.

The design-model-to-print pipeline is really what I enjoy the most too. Very nice design work!

Feels like a lot of people get into printing but then just print existing models from online- which is valid, but missing out on a HUGE opportunity that is really what makes 3d printing useful.

then it’s all fun and games till you’ve been fucking with it for 3 hours and you get to folder.old.old.old.old.old

Sure, but on these fully DC printers all the power control hardware is integrated into the main board and supplied from a single main power rail. You’d have to basically build a separate power control board with that would allow you to isolate those MOSFET’s on their own power rail and then jump the PWM control signal over to it from the main board. Decent amount of electronics knowledge and skill required to pull that off.

Layer adhesion almost always means plastic is extruding too cold. Especially if the adhesion problems are happening on layers off the build plate. Keep bumping the temp and maybe use less part cooling fan- you can’t really make it worse at this point.

Hardened steel nozzles do not conduct heat nearly as well as typical brass nozzles. (The thermal conductivity of steel is around 40w/m-K for high alloys, while for brass it is 110w/m-K). It cannot heat the plastic up nearly as fast.

I usually start at 210C for PLA on my Prusa mk3’s with a brass nozzle, and will back down to 200/205 if there’s more overhangs or too much stringing. But on the printer set up with a steel nozzle I ended up around 225C to get results comparable to 210 on the brass nozzle.

Damn guess I’ll just never buy it till the inevitable port then.

He was the one who stole it and just now finished selling parts off lmaooo

Oh yeah that’s a good idea too. Sure any one client device will be limited to 1g but your NAS could use a super cheap multi-port ethernet card to get 2 or 4g bonded link speeds so it can serve multiple devices at full speed.

Yup. Same age, same design, same failures… and array rebuilds are super intense workloads that often force a lot of random reads and run the drive at 100% load for many hours.

Yeah. They got sold once around 1996 and then again to Hasbro in 1998 after they were failing IIRC. So they were kind of an amalgamation of a bunch of different companies

And Roller Coaster Tycoon! (although it was technically under Hasbro at that point)

2.5 is still really new in the networking space and nobody has hit economies of scale yet. I very much also want to build out my home LAN to be entirely 2.5g compatible since 1g is limiting for my NAS use case (video storage), 10g is overkill and not supported by my client devices, and I only need 16/24 ports. but good God the hardware just isn’t reasonable yet.

You pretty much have to bite the bullet if you really want 2.5 right now. What might honestly be worthwhile is finding a used enterprise 1g switch with the number of ports you need, and will still be “enough”, as those can be had for only a couple hundred dollars. Sit on that for 2-3 years until the 2.5g and 5g hardware market starts to fill out and you can decide how badly you need 2.5g then
