- Comment on Like clockwork, Peacock is raising subscription prices again 5 days ago:
There’s just so few things that people actually watch multiple times. The things that people actually watch multiple times tend to be the same handful of movies and shows that rotates over the years. To do that you only need a very small library. Having a large media library is mostly just waste of space, even if it’s digital is wasted because you’re unlikely to watch 90% of it after the first time.

The point of being executive is that you take responsibility for the company.
Well yes, that’s what they’re supposed to be doing…but how many CEOs are actually held properly accountable for the shit their companies do?

Damn, that is seriously impressive

If they’re asked to do so during regular work time, they’re probably still expected to do their normal tasks too (as overtime)
- Comment on How to dry silica gel 3 weeks ago:
I microwave mine on 30-40% power (in an 800w unit) for 20-30min, stir and give it another 20-30min. That usually restores them to a dry state and doesn’t cause issues with overheating them.
- Comment on Sortable Table view with $/TB for serverpartdeals.com 4 weeks ago:
It’s a US based company, and judging by your use of Euro I’m guessing you’re in Europe…it’s expensive to import stuff from the US, that shipping cost probably also covers VAT. Check out serverahop24.de if you’re in Europe
- Comment on Printing minis on an FDM printer 4 weeks ago:
I have switched out the fan duct and heat block (to use normal volcano) on mine as the only HW changes, and then I’ve flashed the main board with klipper. Using klipper has been a crazy step up in printing quality over the stock firmware because it gave me the control needed to do a proper tuning of my printer.
- Comment on Printing minis on an FDM printer 4 weeks ago:
I mean, they’re definitely good enough for me but resin does give much better fine details. But I also mainly use my printer for functional prints, this is just a nice addition to it’s uses.
- Comment on Printing minis on an FDM printer 4 weeks ago:
I’m pretty happy with the goblin and skeleton, the orc’s bow is a little wonky at the top because my layer time was too short for my printers cooling. None of these has had any post processing done yet, printed without any supports also 0.2mm nozzle and 0.08mm layer height.
I think I’ll try printing a sort of “buffer tower” next time to increase layer time on prints with pointy tips and see if it helps.
- Comment on Printing minis on an FDM printer 4 weeks ago:
Yeah i probably could, there’s definitely some supports that were not needed that I could have avoided…but for fully auto-generated supports I think it did a pretty good job.

Jesus fucking Christ buddy, calm down you crazy bastard…
- Comment on Budget-friendly Sovol SV08 Max redefines large-format 3D printing with Insane 700 mm/s speeds 4 weeks ago:
You state theres a 30% increase in travel speed…but there isn’t, it’s literally the exact same speed as the normal sv08.
Are you comparing to some random other printer from another manufacturer?
- Comment on Budget-friendly Sovol SV08 Max redefines large-format 3D printing with Insane 700 mm/s speeds 4 weeks ago:
The regular sv08 also has 700mm/s max so I’m not sure where you’re getting the 30% increase from

- Comment on Open Source CAD In The Browser 5 weeks ago:
AFAIK there’s only FreeCAD, but it is very different to work with so be prepared to relearn a lot of workflows.
- Comment on miniature figurines filament? 5 weeks ago:
I mostly print large functional parts, so FDM is the best solution for that, and I just happen to also use it for printing minis because I already have it. I don’t have work space free for resin printing too, with all the extras it needs for handling and curing.
- Comment on miniature figurines filament? 5 weeks ago:
ASA i have, because i have en enclosed printer worh filter…but i dont have space handling resin or vapour smoothing (like I said)
- Comment on miniature figurines filament? 5 weeks ago:
So far they’ve just used fine-point acrylic markers directly on the PLA, but it doesn’t quite cover properly. I’ll try the plastic primer 👍
- Comment on miniature figurines filament? 5 weeks ago:
I really don’t want to deal with resin, I don’t have room for a proper safe workstation for it.

Yeah it’s absolutely insane…I searched for an app just yesterday by exact name, and it still didn’t crack the top 20 reaults
- Comment on Is the ‘tech bro-ification’ of abortion here? 5 weeks ago:
We need to figure out how to get it higher up on the Play Store’s search results rather than it being impossible to discover at something like #40 on that list
You pay…no way around that. Google has rigged the search in the store, you will never get a good search location unless you pay.
- Comment on Bambu Lab Controversy Deepens: Firmware Update Sparks Backlash 5 weeks ago:
It’s not just smaller, it also has limitations in materials it can print because it’s not an enclosed printer. The core one can print ABS/ASA much more reliably, PC, Nylon and other fancy stuff the A1 just can’t. Their motion systems are also completely different as the core one uses coreXY and the A1 is coreXZ (aka. bedslinger).
- Comment on Bambu Lab Controversy Deepens: Firmware Update Sparks Backlash 5 weeks ago:
They’re not comparable printers though, you should be comparing the Prusa core one to the Bambi P1-series. The Bambu P1-series is still less than half of course.

It’s what happens when they run out of useful things to improve but still need to announce something to make people think they’re getting an upgrade.
- Comment on China's electric cars are becoming slicker and cheaper - but is there a deeper cost? 1 month ago:
Not quiet, the difference is in how excessive it is with Chinese industry compared to VC backed capitalist counterparts.
- Comment on China's electric cars are becoming slicker and cheaper - but is there a deeper cost? 1 month ago:
The cost seems pretty obvious TBH…they’re subsidising their car industry to a much higher degree than European and American countriesin order to achieve a greater marker share and by extension control of large foreign car consumer markets.
There’s of course also the general increased security risk of the Chinese government being plugged in to all the companies making these cars with black box software and always connected to the internet.

Got some spare filament
This seems to use quite a significant amount of filament, it would probably be hard to make from leftover spool scraps from other projects.
