  • Other brands have mandatory service to maintain warranty, so they likely replace parts just before inspection rather than just after.

  • They do, all BEV and PHEV suffer from this. For most teslas it's probably not getting corrected before inspection because there is no service requirement from Tesla to maintain vehicle warranty. Since other manufacturers require service to maintain warranty, they discover and fix these before inspection.

  • In Denmark a car will fail with brakes as the cause for simply having rust on them, even if the actual braking performance is good enough to pass. This is causing a lot of BEV and PHEV to require brake replacements even though they're not worn and still work just fine.

  • Yeah I agree, first layer does indeed look too high

  • Running a media server with bulk storage from an external HDD is just a terrible experience and recipe for issues, and doesn't give a nice experience with a full library to select from at a whim anywhere in the world (like what streaming provides). Also, depending on library size, not even possible.

    I have ~20tb of media on my server, which isn't even that much, no chance that'll run well in that configure you mention. It's by no means a beefy server either, it's a small ITX mobo in a case with a shitload of HDD bays.

  • Pirating is not really much cheaper TBH...my media server, including power, has to run for something like 6-7 years without upgrades or repairs to break even with what Netflix would cost in that same time frame. It's not about saving money, it's about not giving it to them.

  • No it's very edited to reinforce the observation they want you to make.

  • If you rotate it without editing the coin like done in this photo, it doesn't actually look like what they describe at all...

  • Properly tuned PA achieves this well enough without the need for the sensor I would say.

  • I have my doubts that it makes a significant difference in actual print quality though. Looking at polymaker for example, they specify a tolerance of +-0.02mm on diameter for 97% of the material, and the article mentions an effective accuracy of this sensor of +-0.015mm.

    Maybe the best tuned perfectly calibrated hobbyist printer will see a difference, but for a regular well-tuned printer I think this is is more of a cool novelty mod.

  • What an absolute mad lad!

  • You could try some rapid oxidation...it leaves nothing to tidy up.

  • Even Prusa's newest printer, the core one, is no where close to BL printers of last year in terms of performance and print quality, despite costing nearly twice as much. BL is ahead of all it's competitors in both the hobbyist and pro-sumer market in both performance and UX, it really sucks that there isn't something to fill that market now that they've pulled this crap. I'm not sure what parts he couldn't get, but the few I know that do have BL printers, only one has had to replace a part and it was no issue getting it from BL whatsoever.

  • That's unethical as far as pirating goes...

    Yes, but that doesn't mean much to most people using public trackers to permanently download either so...

  • It uses a torrent file to download parts (temporarily) just like you use the same torrent to permanently download and seed. Only difference is they (the client/user) never keep the files for seeding, no different than if you downloaded, watched, and then deleted the file and torrent from your client.

  • Yes it is 100% leeching on the people that do download and store files, I never said it wasn't, I merely explained how they managed without massive OPEX. Yes these services only work as long as some people keep files and seed, that's also why they suck for things than are >1 year old.

  • What keeps me away from streaming site is that I'm confused about how the sustain themselves. Aren't the costs giganormous to constantly be streaming stuff around?

    I think they're just doing it the same way you do TBH, they just force sequential download of a torrent and allow their users to watch as it downloads as a normal torrent, but then auto-deletes content as it goes as well. That way they don't need to have a massive back end to handle the streaming since it's done like regular P2P torrenting and handled entirely in the client side.

  • I fail to see the useful benefit of this in a home printing environment TBH. It's a cool gimmick, and I remember seeing it long ago in the voron discord when they first developed it on a v2.4(or was it a trident? I can't remember...), but I don't really see what use it has for hobbyist printing.

    Does anyone need consecutive unmonitored batch printing of several plates full at home? It seems much more like something you'd want in a production/print farm environment where it can streamline mass production.

  • I wish all bad things in the world upon SAP and it's creators...What a miserable shitshow it is to work with, I have not met a single person who actually thought it solved anything in a good or tolerable way.
