A cheap way to start is noip.com. You can get a domain name for free, you just need to check in every 3 months to say you are still using it. It’s big enough that many routers support it.

After 2 years of checking in every 3 months I paid for their next tier of service where you don’t have to check in and get multiple domains etc. So their free service marketing worked.

I’ve tried Blender and continue to try to learn but it has an insane learning curve. Imo, it’s only useful for artistic work.

Are you in the US? I recently discovered the Home Depot 5gallon storage container is perfect for filament storage. It’s airtight and has a clear plastic lid that lets you see inside. Most storage containers are milky white which prevents a clear view of the filament inside.

It’s much easier than the individual cereal box containers I have for filament storage.

I agree somewhat. Second panel showing Gandalf’s expression but no text.

How did you handle the reverse proxy in Windows for remote access?

Sauce for everything but the “traditional Napoleonic campaign” which I assume refers to what people think of as the Civil War.

I had a problem at an exact height every time and it was a tiny bit of dirt on the z screw. I couldn’t see it because it was a white wisp of filament in the threads but after a cleaning and lube the problem went away.

But the op is complaining about the much lighter .net where the shared libraries for all apps are a fraction of the space of bringing in an entire OS environment for each and every app.

.net isn’t Windows.

Don’t even get me started on .NET or the various and sundry “redistributables” constantly required by every tool you try to use.

It’s absurd but Linux is far worse. Instead of addressing library bloat and versioning we have Docker which just throws EVERYTHING into a bag and makes you download an entire OS environment space to run one app.

Unless you are on a private tracker, the trackers go up and down and require changes every few years too.

Thanks but as I said, it’s about the collecting, not the watching. I captured/filtered/converted shows like Buzz Lightyear of Star Command for my nephew 25 years ago. I’m not going to delete it despite that no one is watching it or will watch it for decades (maybe when nephew has kids or if I have grandkids). It’s not even available on any streaming.

I think if I ran maintainerr, it would tell me to delete everything except the home videos that my mother in law likes to watch.

I’ve hosted my own media since before Plex existed. But I understand that almost all of my video is “collection”, not actually useful.

My server was useful for about 5 years when my kids were young and it provided all their shows without ads.

I’m starting to delete stuff.

What is AOT? Attack on Titan?

Pihole and dns can only block ads that come from a separate ad network. It’s unlikely that Bambu is using an ad network for the ads inside their slicer. That’s also why Pihole does nothing for youtube ads.

That’s weird. I have never had a doorbell fail. My current doorbell is a 1990’s system that goes to mini crt displays in the house. Kind of like this Image

It’s over 25 years old.

I also have several noname IP cameras around the outside and they’ve never failed. One is almost 10 years old now.

A +/-.1mm IS doable if you’re careful

That the software is introducing more than .1mm before it gets the printer in certain situations is the problem. In the video he starts with his calibration cube that has been tuned to perfect (as far as his calipers can measure). But then he printed a complex part (skull because he’s in bio medicince) and its WAY off because the slicer itself messed up the hotend positioning commands.

Not op but in my case I’ve seen huge differences between USB cards and high quality cards. 20 years ago I used to use bt878 capture cards. A few years ago I bought a Viewcast Osprey on eBay.

In particular I use a svhs tape player with built in time base corrector. The reason for svhs is because the hardware supports actual svhs output. Vhs tapes are store with luminous and chroma as separate signals. With regular composite output, that data is mixed into one signal. This causes interference patterns like dot crawl and color fringing.

The other big advantage over USB dongles is all the ones I’ve seen don’t let you capture the raw data- it’s pre compressed with lossy like mjpeg or mpeg which is another huge quality drop because you’ll usually want to post process the video with avisynth before compressing it to mpeg4.

My target is for the captured video to look just as good as it originally did on a VHS player on a crt. So the interlaced to progressive conversion is always tricky. I don’t personally do it but one trick to keep resolution is to capture at 60fps and play each 30i field doubled. That way no detail is lost in the source and it uses your eyes to motion blur the fields together.

Fusion lets you print from the UI. I have never used it. I always export an stl or step and load that into the slicer.

The bot must be upvoting itself because yet again it listed a bunch of random abbreviations that aren’t in the thread at all.

Someone claimed it’s not ai slop but a bot with GitHub code but that code doesn’t produce this result.

I have no idea what you are using to browse Lemmy because the only notification I get is a number next to my profile icon in web browser or Thunder. And that’s often delayed by several days so I frequently look through my own old posts to find replies because don’t get reliable notifications.

there is no fully open-source 3D printer any more.

I’m pretty sure Voron is fully open source.

but all proprietary and as locked down as possible hatdware-wise.

There’s no DRM in the hardware. It isn’t locked down at all. There are 3rd party hotends already. Not even Prusa has open source hardware now.

I am fairly confident they will follow a similar path even though they have made some software source - available.

They have released all firmware source code. So it doesn’t matter what they do in the future. You have control over your hardware for forever.

What custom firmware are you running on your U1?

While you wait for shipment, start printing an ikea lid mount for the u1. It’s not necessary but it’s great to keep dust out. I did the beaverworks because it was first but I don’t recommend it because there are better ones now. Beaverworks version has unnecessary extra material and needs toyou to unplug the hot extruders to install.

Super glue is fine. You don’t need to waste money on expensive glues.

It’s so good that recovering magnets from prints I’ve made takes a lot of work because the super glue holds them to pla really well.
