Sheinbaum is fantastic! I don’t know anything about anything, but just love that this is the result of a choice by someone with a soul and a conscience - I believe it’s coming from the top, and I’m here for it.

#Fucking despicable and disgusting.

Oh crikey - I def didn’t drink the flavor-aid. I bought the printer, I’m using it stock with BS to start with and so far it seems acceptable to me. I loved orca and am very willing to make environment changes the moment this setup doesn’t meet my needs. I’m just pleasantly surprised that it’s not the all-but-guaranteed shit show the transition was made out to be.

For a philistine member of the proletariat like me - just wanting to fix shit that’s broken or bust out practical shit - it fits the bill for me. It’s not a McLaren, I bought the Hyundai.

Same page with local LAN mode and non-Bambu filaments. I want the outcome not the process.

Thanks! I understand that by introducing the AMS (which I may like to do) I take the hardware’s necessary firmware to a point of excluding Orca. On a stock standard print with a few basic edits I was pleasantly surprised by Bambu. If the use case arises I’ll downgrade the firmware and run orca but for my current purposes I think this lego-style ui will fit most of my use-cases.

Hey friend! I was genuinely surprised when there was a seemingly prevailing preference between the two stables. I had never used 3D printers before and I was blown away by how easy the ender was to use. No shade at all.

I was really gobsmacked to experience the marked increase in built in “nice to have”/“QA features that I hadn’t experienced the first time round. I had no reason to upgrade from the ender based on my experience. It was no longer available to me and I had to buy my own and as a result of said research - the A1 has really impressed me.

Horses for courses. If I hadn’t now used the A1, I’d have no reason to be discontent.

I’m sure another model will come along at some point that makes me want to jump up another level.

In all honesty, the ender was great, made sense, I was learning it and it did what I expected and wanted… the difference is I’ve learned there is more available.

No complaints about the ender at all - I just realised, through a transition that wasn’t by choice, that there was something (on initial impression) that outclasses it.

If I hadn’t lost the ender, I may never have looked at something else.

It’s 10 months til the song comes back but in my head now I have “Ten leopards leaping” 🎶🎄

And just like that, the leopards jumped at MY face!

Really going for that Nobel Peace Prize. When he doesn’t get one next year, his board will create their own lifetime achievement award to bestow upon him which will only ever be given out once which makes it way more special and meaningful than an annual scandi prize. Basically the ceremony Tom Cruise got for his scientology medal. It’ll be that but more gaudy.

Mark Levin is already in… they’re allowed 1.

This is genuinely one of the most left-field shower thoughts I’ve come across. So often I can relate to these posts - I read it and think… “yeah, I see that”. This one truly has me going “huh… wtf”.

Well done bud, this is terrific.

Meddlesome too!

Bread and butter. Epitome!

Ship of fools

“Whatever comes out of him is complete shit”

Honestly, I’m just wondering if Trump is so accustomed to people bending the knee that when someone rocks up and tells him to his face that he’s nothing special, he becomes the sycophant because he needs everyone to love him. It’s not about the power. The abuse of power is largely about exercising the limits of his popularity to prove to himself he has worth and value. Seeing how far his own sycophants will stretch is his way of feeling meaningful and important, quite likely trying to prove that to his dead father. Kim Jong Il is his ideal. He could kill someone in the middle of Pyongyang Ave and no one would bat an eye.

It doesn’t hurt that Mamdani is the new fave son of the city Trump cannot win over no matter what he does, no matter what title he holds.

New York is a proxy for Trump’s dad. He’s always gonna be a disappointment to his father, and will go to his grave having never bathed in the glow of his father’s pride.

It’s quite the magic trick - Mamdani turned Trump into the world’s first Orange pander bear.

You’re welcome! I’m stoked that you’re enjoying it. I was having fun but I like spreadsheets so… I usually temper my expectations when making a recommendation.

Hope you get where you want to be with it quickly :)

There’s a site called “morsle” which has a daily test (like Wordle, and all the other daily games that are going around) where it starts out playing you a 5 letter word in Morse code and you can replay it a bunch of times and every time you do it slows down the sound a bit, starting at 40 words per minute. It’s amazing how quickly you can learn to discern one sound from another. I only found it a day or so ago but I am finding it’s coming quite quickly to me. It feels almost like remembering a short musical riff or drum beat. It’s intriguing.

Benefit of the doubt: do you mean you doubt there are many people alive who FOUGHT in WWII?

I’m not sure college fixes that.
