even unzipped folders
That sounds super interesting, does it keep the folder structure intact? Because having to zip a folder to be able to download a folder with its structure intact is super annoying.
Edit: Oh it’s just for uploading, still very cool though.
The bullshit jobs are tiring too though, after all you have to deal with a lot of bullshit.
How is this a shitpost?
Which one? I have an i3 mega s (I think that’s the name) and it’s pretty basic and slow, but built relatively well. After however many hours of printing some of the bearings have failed, but they were easy and cheap to replace.
Sounds really cool and useful, but wouldn’t we also need non planar slicing and maybe a 4th axis for the full potential?
Fair points, my situation doesn’t apply to everyone.
I occasionally use my htpc for light office work, the terrible ergonomics are the only problem In that case.
You could always attach the pc to the TV, and if you don’t have one you’d need one for the console anyways.
And my screens were like 17,50 each also used obvs. Fair point about the peripheries though…
And my pc would be overkill if you buy a console for gaming.
That’s not quite correct, every ice car has a mechanism to disconnect the engine from the wheels.
Manuals typically use a clutch to archive this. For the longest time automatic transmissions haven’t though, instead they use a torque converter. Which also is a type of clutch obviously, but not what people usually refer to when they use the term clutch.
There also are automated manuals and dual clutch transmissions, but those are more modern…
Too lazy to find sources rn, but if anyone wants to know more I’ll provide some.
Are we talking about a new 200$ pc?
Because if you buy used you can get a very decent non gaming pc for that money.
Maybe I got lucky, my current desktop was 350€ used with a pretty modern and fast CPU (5800x) and a somewhat outdated GPU (vega56).
I’d write it down / take photos just in case… But also remember being able to swap SATA cables without anything breaking. It’s been a while since I had to fiddle with the hardware though, so that memory isn’t super reliable.
Germany’s Craigslist equivalent.
Sometimes you have to be patient for the good deals to show up. And usually there is no shipping. So some hidden cost in transportation and time may exist.
I bought my printer used, it only cost me 50€. Although I had to replace a bearing in the extruder.
Depending on the offers in your area that might be an option. Or I just got very lucky who knows…
All my petg experience is with a .6 nozzle, printing on a glass bed, but there’s some takeaways that hopefully apply to a .2 one…
Going very slow and increasing extrusion width helps a lot. And keeping acceleration low-ish, decreasing travel speed too much doesn’t help ofc. The narrow extrusion of a .2 nozzle reduces the surface area of a single line even more, so probably you need to increase the line width even more.
Additionally, I’ve read somewhere that petg kinda likes to stick to brass but not glass. So having the bed as hot as you can get away with for the first layer and the nozzle as cool helps too.
What PLA resists deformation when subjected to boiling water?
It’s called lobbyism here, so it’s okay.

The tube in the background is probably for the real repaste…
Don’t forget about morals, they often play a role in “holding” me back too.
