I have a reolink that I use as a baby monitor. It’s on our wifi but I set up my router to prevent it from accessing the internet. So you can only access it if you’re phone is on the wifi. And it records onto an SD card.

- Comment on Anyone use Bambu Lab Cool Plate 3 weeks ago:
I’m only printing in PLA. The material isn’t changing, the shape of the thing I’m printing is changing
- Comment on Anyone use Bambu Lab Cool Plate 3 weeks ago:
Do you use it for every print or do you decide from print to print which plate to use? Have you ever almost damaged a print trying to get it off?

- Comment on Is Anyone Printing ICE Whistles? 4 weeks ago:
Not only is that still more expensive than printing, you have to wait a week to ship instead of waking up to a print bed full of them
- Comment on Is Anyone Printing ICE Whistles? 4 weeks ago:
These are 25 cents each. Printed whistles are like 4
- Comment on Is Anyone Printing ICE Whistles? 4 weeks ago:
Printed whistles are like 4 cents each. I haven’t checked but I’d be surprised if you could buy them for cheaper than that. Also, I have so many points on Makerworld that filament is free
- Comment on Is Anyone Printing ICE Whistles? 4 weeks ago:
I’m planning on printing up quarter-page sheets on the importance your community plays in getting ICE to leave, and starting a Signal group for my neighborhood and including the QR code on there. Then printing a bunch of whistles and putting them with the flyers in mailboxes in my neighborhood.
I’ve printed a ton of these for a protest in the spring and they’re super loud: makerworld.com/models/502788?appSharePlatform=cop…
I printed a dozen of these and they’re fast and cheap but maybe not as loud as the other (they’re designed to print on their side): makerworld.com/models/2245044?appSharePlatform=co…
When I get home after the weekend I’m going to print these two to see if they’re louder or cheaper/faster to print (or both!). If they are I’ll use them for the above exercise.

- Comment on Stop cramming everything onto one Pi: treat your home lab like a tiny ISP - hardware, stack, backups and an update plan 2 months ago:
My one and only Pi is exclusively for piracy. Qbittorrent, VPN, Radarr, Sonarr, Lidarr, Prowlarr. My NAS does everything else. If my Pi died spontaneously, it’d be annoying but not devastating. I’ve been thinking about cloning the SD card so if/when it dies, I can just plug in a new one.

This trick is common enough and trivial to reverse engineer. I can just purge my billion-email-address hacked list of all characters between a + and an @ and have a clean list that untraceable with your system.
- Comment on How to keep adding on 3 months ago:
If your Synology NAS is in Raid, up-sizing your drives is dead simple.
Pop out one of your current, smaller drives. Pop in a new, bigger drive. Wait for Disk Station to migrate data over to the new drive (note that this can literally take days depending how much data there is). Then do the same with the next old, small drive and the next one until all old, small drives are replaced with new, big ones.
This will work as long as your current drives are not like 24 TB or whatever the upper limit is these days. In that case, you need more bays.
After this is done, move all the data from your externals onto your Synology NAS.

I’m in a similar situation with my 218+ so I’m interested to hear some answers. It’s still running great though so I don’t need to replace it soon but I like planning ahead

Do you know if you can import and edit STL files with 3d experience?
- Comment on Is there no good inexpensive CAD software? 5 months ago:
I’m intrigued but confused. What’s the difference between 3DEXPERIENCE and xDesign? Are they the same thing or different? Do you need both or just one or the other? They’re called “packages” so do you need some kind of base install and then choose which package to put on top of it?
- Comment on Is there no good inexpensive CAD software? 5 months ago:
I got a 3d printer about a year ago and looked into CAD software and came to the exact same conclusion you just did. I ended up using Plasticity. I thiink I paid $150 for a year of updates. But there are still two major drawbacks: first is it’s not parametric, as you said, but more importantly you can’t import stls and edit them. You can export stls, but you have to make them from scratch. You can technically import an stl but it’s impossible to edit. Oftentimes I find a design online but I want to tweak it to my purposes but I can’t do that.
I’d love it if Free CAD had a better UI. It’s just so frustrating and hideous to use.
