- Comment on Roomba maker iRobot swept into bankruptcy 2 hours ago:
I’ve had a dumb roomba for years too, and I was decently happy with it, but i switched to a new roborock this year…and holy shit, the roomba sucks ass compared to the roborock. It absolutely does not do the job as well, comparatively it hardly does a job at all.
- Comment on Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro Bed Temp Issue 1 day ago:
I see two issues as the most likely culprits
- temperature probe defective
- temperature probe is not mounted correctly.
Either of these is basically an RMA case since it’s a faulty product.
- Comment on I haven't seen anyone talking about the Anycubic Kobra s1 Max. 350mm3, 350c nozzle, active chamber heating. 1 week ago:
Its not 350mm3 build volume, it’s 42,875,000mm3 build volume (350mmx350mmx350mm)
The fact that the manufacturer isn’t even able to get units on their own printer correct does not inspire confidence.
- Comment on Filament splicing? Do any of you guys do it? 2 weeks ago:
1m of filament represents ~6¢ of value for basic filaments like PLA/PETG/ABS/ASA from a quality manufacturer, less for cheap ones. I will never bother with the hassle of splicing filament pieces for that.
- Comment on Qidi X-Max 3 - not performing as expected 2 weeks ago:
Ah they did make the bed easily adjustable, would have been nice to include that in the manual…
Anyway, i was able to trim it to a 0.16mm deviance across the plate (both heated and cold) and that really helped with first layer consistency. The 0.45mm I had before must just have been way too much for it to compensate.
- Comment on Qidi X-Max 3 - not performing as expected 2 weeks ago:
Yeah warped bed was already checked (it’s reasonably straight at 60°C after 10min of heat soaking) and it’s straight enough, just slightly tilted along the X-axis so the front is higher than the back.
- Comment on Qidi X-Max 3 - not performing as expected 2 weeks ago:
Yes it performs KAMP when starting a print and I can see that the adaptive mesh it probes is loaded from the web-view.

Yeah no you’re just using the wrong words to describe your issue.

Yeees, your obvious typo is totally invalidating my previous statement…
- Comment on Logitech will brick its $100 Pop smart home buttons on October 15 - Ars Technica 2 months ago:
Yes it is, because the HW is completely unnecessary, you can emulate it perfectly on a potato. It only serves a nostalgic purpose, which is also fine, but in all other aspects it is completely obsolete.
- Comment on AI-powered CRISPR could lead to faster gene therapies, Stanford Medicine study finds 2 months ago:
No it doesn’t
Yes you did
- Comment on Logitech will brick its $100 Pop smart home buttons on October 15 - Ars Technica 2 months ago:
Except for a fairly tiny niche community of users still using them for nostalgia reasons, the NES is absolutely also ancient and obsolete in every way and has been for several decades.
- Comment on Logitech will brick its $100 Pop smart home buttons on October 15 - Ars Technica 2 months ago:
That’s not them bricking it though. Yes it’s shitty build quality, but that is an entirely different issue than them bricking equipment that still is very much functional from a HW perspective.
- Comment on A cartoonist's review of AI art, by Matthew Inman 2 months ago:
Oh my fucking god people…I didn’t say you could claim you made something when using AI generated images. I claimed it still makes sense for some things because they hold pretty much no artistic value when made by humans already (like icons, stock images and logos)
- Comment on A cartoonist's review of AI art, by Matthew Inman 2 months ago:
No, they’re not, never claimed they did. I said that what comes from it still holds value and is still subject to human approval in the end.
- Comment on A cartoonist's review of AI art, by Matthew Inman 2 months ago:
I would honestly argue that the way an artist makes art is also completely irrelevant. The art is only meaningful in the way it’s perceived, how the artist physically makes it is of very little importance. The tools and materials are just a means to an end, it’s the finished product that inspires feelings and thoughts, not the process of how it came to be.
- Comment on A cartoonist's review of AI art, by Matthew Inman 2 months ago:
I’d argue it’s more like creating the menu, specifying the contents of the menu but having someone/thing else actually make the food.
- Comment on A cartoonist's review of AI art, by Matthew Inman 2 months ago:
it’s just colors and noise.
But that’s exactly my point; logos, icons, stock images etc. are already nothing but noise meant to just catch the eye…might as well just get it auto-generated.
- Comment on A cartoonist's review of AI art, by Matthew Inman 2 months ago:
But you still choose the final result…for something like that, the how is really quite irrelevant, it is just the end result that matters and that still remains in the hands of humans as they’re the ones to settle on the final solution.
- Comment on Ender 3 v3 se y axis bearings loose in carrier. 2 months ago:
When fixing a 3D printer always go for the proper solution right away, because you will eventually get tired of the wonky half-assed solution you’ve spent hours or days getting to perform properly and just go for the proper solution anyway. Save yourself the frustration, time, and wasted filament in failed prints and do it right the first time.
- Comment on A cartoonist's review of AI art, by Matthew Inman 2 months ago:
It’s impressive technology, and I understand that it’s exciting, but it’s not art.
I would add that a lot (most?) graphical elements we encounter in daily lives do not require art or soul in the least. Stock images on web pages, logos, icons etc. are examples of graphical elements that are IMO perfectly fine to use AI image generation for. It’s the menial labour of the artist profession that is now being affected by modern automation much like so many other professions have. All of them resisted so of course artists resist too.

I’m not the person who posted the widget issue, but IME many FOSS solutions (not just weather-related) are more often than not aesthetically/UX crap.
- Comment on ICE to Buy Tool that Tracks Locations of Hundreds of Millions of Phones Every Day 2 months ago:
You can either buy an app or pay with your data.
No this implies you get a choice, which you don’t. You can get it for free and sell your data, or you can pay for it…and still also sell your data. The real money is in the data, they won’t give that up…ever.
- Comment on Is my stepper motor failing? 2 months ago:
It definitely sounds like a fan scraping on something. it also seems to be triggered by the extruder changing direction, but only briefly as it jerks. Have you checked fan bearings in the hotend and part cooling? Or just something as simple as parts being tightened properly?
- Comment on FFS Plex, the server is on my local network 2 months ago:
I have no trust that lifetime is in fact lifetime, and the price is also too high compared to the product value IMO.
- Comment on European banks to launch euro stablecoin in bid to counter US dominance 2 months ago:
There will be the exact same level of surveillance, it’s still just run by banks so there’s no difference there.
- Comment on European banks to launch euro stablecoin in bid to counter US dominance 2 months ago:
This just sounds like a regular bank transfer to another European bank…input recipient in your self-service online banking and press “transfer”…beep boop done.
