- Comment on USB-PD is a de-facto low-power DC voltage standard, with USB-C being the universal plug. Hurray! 5 months ago:
Are you talking about the adapters that let you run network through your electrical circuits? Because that’s different from PoE. PoE is running power through the network cables so you get power and network with one plug, so kind of the opposite of that.
I can confirm that using electrical infrastructure for network is really not great.
- Comment on Klipperized my Sv06 - 10/10 do recommend 8 months ago:
Good tip - I don’t have a runout sensor installed so I was not aware of this
- Comment on Klipperized my Sv06 - 10/10 do recommend 8 months ago:
I need to do that - I haven’t finished fully calibrating everything. I still need to calibrate flow and pressure advance as well. The current settings are pretty good for print quality so I haven’t messed with it much but the last few prints I have noticed some issues with dimensional accuracy that affect tighter tolerances
- Comment on Klipperized my Sv06 - 10/10 do recommend 8 months ago:
I use Cura 5.4 and the only changes I made were to the start and end gcode for the machine (per the guild I linked). After that, I did a few prints with my regular profiles, then started cranking up the speed a little at a time. So really the only setting I changed was the print speed and start / end gcode.
The printer handled everything else - honestly it feels a little like magic to me, even though it’s just software. I’m a software engineer so I feel like I should have a better grasp of it, but printer firmware is pretty far outside of the type of work I do. One thing I do know is that Klipper manages acceleration itself and doesn’t use the acceleration gcodes sent from the slicer - those get ignored and Klipper decides how fast to accelerate (this is configurable using moonraker or the config files).
I think the thing that makes the most difference in letting you print at higher speeds is the input shaping. I don’t understand all the inner workings, but it using the processing power on the raspberry pi to compensate for the vibration of the printer, letting you print much faster without getting artifacts in the print that affect quality. Here is some info on that
I’m sure there are a lot of slicer and Klipper configurations that I can do to improve things even more as well

- Comment on Firefox will have a built-in ‘fake reviews detector’ — Amazon is in trouble 8 months ago:
Yeah it doesn’t seem too difficult to me to see when reviews seem fishy. I have never tried fakespot myself.
Another thing to check is that the reviews match what the product is for - I have seen a lot of Amazon listings where the seller will have a product up for a long time, get a lot of positive reviews, then change the listing to something else. So it looks like the listing has been up for a long time with good reviews but it’s really a different item. Then note the seller and don’t buy anything from them lol.
- Comment on Firefox will have a built-in ‘fake reviews detector’ — Amazon is in trouble 8 months ago:
Per the article, they are integrating Fakespot into Firefox, so it won’t be different. Hopefully the tool can be improved

Great little machine! I have one as my first and only printer and I have been loving it. Prints PETG and TPU very well
- Comment on Humble Tech Book Bundle: Software Architecture by O'Reilly 8 months ago:
You download them directly from thr Humble bundle website. They appear to be DRM free.
They are all available in PDF but only some are available in all formats, and the rest are either only PDF and MOBI or PDF and ePUB, if that matters to you
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
I thought so but I’ve only ever used it on taller TPU prints where I want them to basically be hollow so I’ve never seen it look quite like that!
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
Those look great! What is the top left one?
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
There’s a type of cubic that starts out lower and increases in density as it reaches the top to support the top layers. That’s mainly the one I was thinking of. I can’t remember the name of it though. And lightning is suuuper fast but provides basically no strength
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
Same. Sometimes you want something fast. For things that don’t need to be sturdy at all (little display figures and stuff like that) I’ll use cubic or even lightning infil
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
That’s a good tip - I haven’t tried that yet. I’ll give it a shot next time I need something sturdy
- Comment on Under desk mount for Apple MacBook charger 9 months ago:
Looks great! I don’t use a Macbook anymore or I’d test it out.
Are you printing in PLA? I have really been enjoying PETG for mounting things as it is a lot less brittle. It will flex a lot more before it breaks
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
Yeah I do like that it doesn’t jerk the printer, just a little wiggle!
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
This is PETG also - it makes for super sturdy prints.
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
I haven’t had a use case where something is too thin for gyroid yet. I can definitely see that being useful though!
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
It’s like a little dance for every layer
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
I haven’t tried that one yet. I don’t see that one in Cura - is that in prusa slicer?
- Comment on Gyroid infil appreciation post 9 months ago:
That’s a cool idea for the coaster! I might do that if I ever get into pouring resin

You’re the best!
- Comment on [deleted] 9 months ago:
Thanks for following up! That is really interesting
- Comment on [deleted] 9 months ago:
Sounds good! It’s definitely been a while since I watched that episode. We are currently re-watching TNG and I really don’t feel like taking a break from that to watch DSC lol. No offence, Dr Stamets 😅
- Comment on [deleted] 9 months ago:
It was kind of talked about on Discovery with Georgiou after they went to the future. The universes were drifting apart, and because the mirror universe was no longer aligned with the primer universe in whatever year Discovery ended up in, Georgiou was not able to maintain cohesion and had to go back in time. link
I may be misremembering headcannon as an actual line from the episode but I seem to remember hearing that the mirror universe was the one that was the closest to them on the space time continuum. The fact that they were both aligned is why people could travel between them and not others.
- Comment on Octoprint disconnecting 10 months ago:
Octoprint is a software to manage a printer running marlin firmware.
Klipper is a different printer firmware, and is not something you can use to manage a printer running marlin.
I do want to look at flashing klipper to my sv06 someday but right now I’m just trying to print stuff without manually moving an SD card every time.
- Comment on Octoprint disconnecting 10 months ago:
Yeah I will try switching cables and if it happens again I’m going back to SD cards. I really liked the convenience of it but that is not applicable if it keeps failing
- Comment on Octoprint disconnecting 10 months ago:
Ahh that makes sense. Both times have been since I switched to a new cable. Guess I got a bad one. I’ll switch back to the one I had before.
