  • What software is so user-centric, you can't believe it's proprietary?

    Jump

  • They started their own distribution. Which....ended badly. Especially as the company they contracted to do so was staffed mainly with former oracle and SAP staff.

  • It depends - if you got the money,it can be good. I actually worked with really really good software systems. Especially for the time.

    But....they are rare, they were all custom made/fit and the whole company using them had the right "humans first" culture behind it. And they spend huge amount of money on them.

    But as they were not shareholder value run,it didn't matter.

    B2G software? That is hell. Pure hell. Never saw a single good one. They even managed to fuck up Linux here.

  • Which filament manufacturers provide config files?

    Jump

  • I know that,but for the rarer non PLA/PETG stuff you only print once in a few weeks it's sometimes handy - and I kind of "preach" 3D printing to non-technical,often older, people sometimes, and they are often "not that sure what they are doing" yet, so that helps a lot.

    And on the stickers things like density, flow, etc. are mostly not noted.

  • Yeah, more northern hemisphere influence is just what they need. It's not like that already let to Operation Condor and Milei.

  • Bambu Lab's reply to my complaint

    Jump

  • We received the same reply today - which is somewhat funny because we send them a legally binding deadline (as part of a legal statement) - and as they confirmed the receival it is now somewhat valid and may lead to a cease and desist order later.

    We will see how this turns out.

    Maybe, just maybe, it's a bad idea to let AI and cheap customer service agents without proper protocols answer letters and mails written in a foreign language(as EU Bambu Lab is situated in Germany the letter was in German) that very obvious knows their way around the law. In normal companies these letters get escalated to legal.

    Well.... Not here....

  • when can we expect affordable steel/metal printers to hit the market?

    Jump

  • If you manage to get your shrinking right (the actual steel part is smaller than what you print) it works fairly well. I have used it in the past.

  • Bambu's Gaslighting Masterclass: Denying their own documented restrictions

    Jump

  • The thing is -and neither Bambu nor their shills and fanboys understand that-: People bought a printer that could do both: Use the cloud and manage it at home or use Orca/Panda,etc.

    Now they have to choose one of the sides.

    And this is a major flaw - legally speaking it is a major malfunction.

    We will see how this ends up.

  • Bambu Lab Firmware Update Forces Cloud Dependency & User Lock-In - AVOID THEIR 3D PRINTERS!

    Jump

  • Update in the main post above

  • What is a good alternative to proton mail these days?

    Jump

  • Sadly the best product mail-wise is currently MS Exchange online. Privacy wise Posteo is probably the best.

  • What is a good alternative to proton mail these days?

    Jump

  • Always has been a sketchy company - any company who claims Swiss privacy laws are good (and in reality operates out of the US) is lying to you.

  • Given BambuLabs recent issues what now?

    Jump

  • Then I would talk to your credit card company.

  • Updates and Third-Party Integration with Bambu Connect

    Jump

  • Not the same as one does include working in offline mode,your examples do not. Legally they are not the same. Neither is the developer mode comparable with the current feature set.

  • Updates and Third-Party Integration with Bambu Connect

    Jump

  • They claim so. While their TOS say something else. Legally speaking the TOS are what counts.

  • Given BambuLabs recent issues what now?

    Jump

  • If you ordered within their return period return it. Besides that, wait, at the moment

  • Bambu Lab Firmware Update Forces Cloud Dependency & User Lock-In - AVOID THEIR 3D PRINTERS!

    Jump

  • The updated blog post does change the legal position they have maneuvered themselves in within the EU.

    Also,they are basically lying in their post:

    We want to make it absolutely clear that all of these claims are entirely false: Bambu Lab will remotely disable your printer ("brick" it). Firmware updates will block your printer’s ability to print.

    While:

    Due to the importance of these updates, your product may block new print job before the updates is installed, and will immediately provide update notifications to help you understand the related information.

    (TOS 7.4)

    Additionally the required certificates of course have a expiry date and after that you won't be able to connect outside of developer mode.

    Legally, they are also in hot water with their "no support" developer mode at least within the EU. First of all they can't remove support for functions that were present at the time of the sale. Additionally denying support within the warranty period for use that is within the normal use even if developer modes,etc. are used is considered illegal - they can ask Samsung, Google and Sony about their experience in court for those cases, they all failed.
