    Why are my Insurance premiums go up more for just adding a spouse than they would if I added children.

    Jump

  • Agreed. My work offers me the option to add a spouse or children or both.

  • Today I have a huge bottleneck in unpacking and moving. I've got 1gb fiber and can saturate it, getting a complete iso in just a few minutes, but then it's another 30min plus waiting for that to actually be usable.

    Are you doing this all manually or using the *arr suite? For me, this process takes a minute or two depending on the size of the files with Proxmox and ZFS but even previously on Windows 10 with SnapRAID it was quick.

    Do I need a NAS ?

    Jump

  • Its honestly pretty small for what you can pack inside but they do have smaller options like the Node series. The 304 is around 8"x10"x14" with room for 6 drives.

    Do I need a NAS ?

    Jump

  • The third alternative (and best IMO) is to buy a PC case with lots of drive slots and transfer everything into it. With a NAS you're going to pay a ton of money for the NAS itself which is just laptop-equivalent hardware and a fixed number of drive bays meaning you can't expand it when it fills up without buying more expensive hardware, and you'll also be forced into buying matched drives. With an HDD enclosure, you're spending less money but again fixed on the number of drives while also being somewhat unreliable due to the USB connection.

    I use a Fractal Design Define 6 midtower case which can hold around 12 HDDs. For hardware I bought a mobo with the most SATA ports I could get and began slowly buying drives as my storage pool filled up, eventually needing an LSI HBA card to expand the number of SATA connections. This is the best value IMO as the cost is comparable to buying a NAS, you can add drives as you go with a much higher drive capacity, the connection is rock solid, and you can run real PC hardware.

  • Cams, anyone?

  • It was definitely not fun stringing Cat6 through the attic, but knowing myself, I probably wouldn't have stayed on top of battery changes and I also wanted 24/7 recording since a battery powered camera can miss movement and start recording late or not at all. I also need a doorbell camera still but I've had trouble finding one that checks all the boxes.

  • It sounds like a fun project but I dont know if I'd rely on it for security purposes. Plus with the cost of Pis now you might as well but a full fledged camera.

  • I have Amcrest PoE cameras hooked to an Amcrest NVR for 24/7 recording and also Frigate running separately tied to Home Assistant to record clips and send notifications when people are out front/back of my house. It all works really well thus far after about a year of use.

  • Eminem sues Australian beach brand 'Swim Shady'

    Jump

  • IANAL but I thought part of trademark law was examining whether a reasonable person would confuse the two and I can't imagine someone mixing up an American rapper with an Australian beachwear company, but I imagine Eminem has a clothing line that would be considered part of the same industry.

  • Any Amazon replacements on prime for a AMS Bambu 4 pin bus cable

    Jump

  • Yeah I luckily already have a 4 port hub and cable so I only needed the power supply, but did notice both their AMS kits were sold out despite them having plenty of AMS and AMS 2 still for sale with their black Friday deals going on. Seems like someone in their stock department screwed up on quantities or they should sell the AMS with the kits included and have a separate SKU for AMS without the adapter kit for those people ordering multiple AMS.

  • I've been working with customer service for the kissing items

    That's some good service.

  • They should really ship these together. I got my AMS 2 a few days ago but the power supply doesn't show up until next week. I know its only needed for the drying function but that's precisely why I bought it.

  • Needed mods to run overture spools in Ams 2 pro??

    Jump

  • I haven't tried the filament cutter mods so I cant answer that but haven't had a problem with my cardboard spools (Overture, Polymaker) outside of needing the rings to keep the cardboard from shredding.

    A weight or desiccant pod insert couldn't hurt, but I only ever run into this issue with my 250g spools with printed adapters since they're so light with a long 'lever arm' from the center of the spool to the edge.

    Also the only way to read remaining filament is if you add a Bambu RFID tag to the spool as this is what it uses to measure (counting how quickly the tag is spinning versus how much filament it has pulled).

  • On the P1S its a couple of connectors and two Allen screws (assuming you have a fully assembled hot end to swap in). On the X1C its the same but three connectors. The new P2S is coming with a quick swap nozzle feature which would definitely be worth it if you plan on buying one of their printers.

  • I'm so right there with you and know several people in the same boat. We all got so sick of tinkering and still having a high percentage of failures to the point that it became a chore, but now its as simple as slicing and waiting.

    I've put 2800 hours on my X1C in the last 18 months and have had to do only one repair and have had maybe 10 failed prints mostly from adhesion issues. It's been good enough that I've been able to create a side hustle and just bought a P1S during the Black Friday sale to pump out more volume.

    I'm not exactly happy about their recent changes but even if you don't like Bambu, you have to hand it to them for knocking the ball out of the park and forcing everyone else to match their quality.
