Im genuinely confused by your reply. I wasn’t referring to ladder climbers in a positive light. I see them shoehorning AI into pointless projects that dazzle the bosses because they don’t know any better or because they want to dazzle their own bosses with more jumbo jumbo derived from their own reports.

They sound made up but convey the meaning well enough. “Talk about your experience with Bible-thumping peers”

He’s following his fellow criminal and messiah Trump who has been exporting companies left and right.

What about all those ladder climbers who want to sound like they’re tapped in to the pulse of cutting edge technology to the bosses? I work with engineers and it seems to be pretty split between full adoption and full rejection.

Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist are places that people sell their used items. I think “Kajiji” is one in Canada maybe?

Especially with big dogs where you’re picking up fresh, steaming, human-sized turds with nothing but a few microns of plastic between it and your hand.

Ive been using AirVPN since Mullvad dropped port forwarding and it has been decent and reasonably priced. The only issue I’ve had was with their “Eddie” client for Windows. I fixed this by using (I think, or something similarly named) WireSock with an AirVPN Wireguard config which also gave me the ability to do split tunneling easily but I only used this for a few months before building a new server running Proxmox

I think ProtonVPN also has the feature but costs a bit more. Private Internet Access is another cheap option but their owners are shady (I had them before Mullvad until they got sold to a company with ties to Israeli spyware makers IIRC)

Can you check your local FB marketplace and Craigslist for similar printers? That’ll probably give you the best idea of what they’d go for locally. That said $200CAD doesn’t seem terrible, but with everyone buying CoreXY machines these days, that drives the price of the old bed slingers down even further.

You shouldn’t even be using Mullvad for torrenting as they had to get rid of their port forwarding feature some time ago. This means youll only be able to connect to individuals who do have port forwarding setup and no one else.

In any case the best solution is to link your torrent client to the VPN interface as it will cease operation if it loses connection and prevent leaks.

It was still the same back then, it was just done via network TV channels instead of streaming channels.

Because music streaming services compete (for the most part) based on experience and features not content. This happened after the market plummeted for music sales. TV and movies are still in the stage where everyone is competing with content by having exclusives while their services suck dick with few features, horrible UX, and ads. Im sure at some point they’ll go the route of music and games where youre not forced to sign up to a specific service to see a specific show, but who knows when that’ll happen.

As someone with no PS experience or other baggage weighing me down, I find the default UI to be insanely unintuitive. Im not even sure what the panels on the right or bottom are for, the left toolbar panel randomly disappears on me occasionally and I can never figure out how to get it back without closing and reopening GIMP. Things like Crop don’t seem to do anything obvious. Painting with the brush doesn’t work unless you first use the selection tool to draw a box around the area you want to use the brush. Etc, etc, etc. Some of this is obviously just because I’m a novice, and I manage to fumble my way through things, but at the same time it could be drastically simplified for simple tasks. It feels like a tool that was built for people who already knew how to use it.

My guess is a low cost, thin cast iron pan

They’ll do both just like they did in 2007/2008. These AI companies and their investors will get bailed out while the rest of us lose our jobs and have to move back in with our parents in the van they already live in.

As mentioned this is not easy to print. You might consider cutting the model into two pieces. From the shown orientation, I would do a planar cut just below the top surface, trying to capture those “screws” (I don’t know what they’re called, they tighten the strings) in the top cut and then flip the bottom section over so the spherical dome is printed like an upside down bowl. This should only require supports for the large piece at the top of the neck. In Bambu Studio (possibly OrcaSlicer) you can also add connector pieces for proper alignment when doing cuts too, but they may he unnecessary when gluing it back together.

Also for future reference, when you see models that only show 3D renderings and no actual finished print, you know you’re in for some trouble. I try to avoid these at all costs.

Crank down on that back left corner a little more and rerun this test to see if you can get it under a 0.2mm range for the height difference. Since you’ve moved the printer off the table and on to the floor it may have altered things so you’ll want to redo it anyway (and any other time you physically move the printer).

I think its a bit excessive. That shows there’s almost a two and a half layer (at a standard 0.2mm layer) difference between the high and low spots. On my old printer with klipper installed, I would shoot for less than 0.2mm.

Me too. Not even having a ramp into the garage seems like a huge issue but the area seems like a good fit for them since there’s other youtubers/speed shops next door.

I used to watch AvE on long nights at work and even his tool teardowns got old quickly and the cracks started to show for me. Like every single one was him pointing out the same 10 things he knows about while bullshitting the rest.

My final straw was before covid when he felt the need to post a video on a crane that collapsed in Seattle acting like some forensic analyst giving us his “expert take” on what occurred based off some grainy news footage. I know people just like him who always want to portray themselves as the expert on everything in the most condescending way, and that drives me up the fucking wall, so I had to dip out.

I’ve been enjoying BigTime but I think they’re struggling hard behind the scenes trying to replicate their old, expensive production style in one of the most expensive areas in the country (they employ like a dozen people as a fairly new YouTube channel) as if they still have that funding, along with not having the technical expertise to do all the work they want to do to their projects.
