You should give 1.1Dev releases a look. The future is looking very good.

I absolutely have no use Bambu’s RFID tags. I need to change the settings anyway, so why bother with them at all. Thankfully I doubt there were will be any agreement to any kind of standard to allow such a thing anyway.

As soon as I get mine in the mail, I will help them look for theirs.

These nozzles are cheap. And it shouldn’t be very difficult fix this one if you have a heat gun. The hard part will be to get at the latch that holds the the nozzle assembly in the extruder. That’s small, fiddly, and delicate part that there is a good chance of breaking.

So while you are ordering that spare heater assembly, ($20US) you might as well get a new nozzle too, ($10US).

What? Is it because teens can’t afford booze, cigarettes, and drugs anymore? Maybe they need to buy less Starbucks and avocado toast so they can party more.

This is a good trend I think. I hope they carry it on well into the rest of their lives.

I am a veteran of that war. I shitposted for Vim. The scars that war left will never heal. The nice doctor here is trying to get me to use nano. Baby steps she says. But she say says soon I will be using Kwrite.

:q No wait! I think I meant :q! Crap, I wanted to save that. :wq

I would bet on retraction here. Dial that in and 90% of the stringing goes away.

Or just use a textured PEI plate at the proper bed temperature. There is very little need for special adjuncts to print PETG.

It’s been the Year of the Linux Desktop for for 30+ years now. So any decade now right?

And I say this as a Linux user since Red Hat 5 and Mandrake 6. And I’m typing this from Fedora 40 KDE Plasma…

RTFM Noob!

Machines are a means to an end. Not the end in and of itself. It just depends on what YOUR ends turn out to be.

There is nothing wrong with having your printer be the hobby. It’'s a valid part of of the printing hobby and the current state of 3D printing wouldn’t be it is right now. And Bambu has done nothing new that hobbyists weren’t already doing as a hobby to modify their machines. So I wouldn’t worry much about what a Bambu owner thinks.

Nice work!

Where I live even 4G isn’t all that reliable. Making a phone call is mostly impossible and a text message is hit or miss unless I’m in a town or along a major road, This is due to terrain and the general lack of towers. 4G is spotty at best and with many areas having no service at all. And I ain’t never going to live long enough to ever see 5G out here.

But, I would agree that while 32KB is pretty minor for an internet connection, things have a way of stacking. 32KB here, another extra 32KB there and pretty soon things can get ‘heavy’ to use.
