Wow. Can you imagine what would happen if an American car company's fully automated driving were responsible for the death of three teenagers in a fiery crash in Nevada?

I can only assume there'd be a full recall, the CEO would go on TV to apologize and resign.

But not everyone can be a beacon of freedom.

I did print myself a herome mount and everything awhile back. Added dual fans and whatnot, I was having a terrible time with petg surface quality, the dual fans helped a lot. I also had to reassemble my hotend to reprint something I messed up lol.

I'm at the point now where I've replaced so much on my ender that it doesn't really look like the machine I bought, except that it's still i3.

I'll check out the orbiter, thanks!

The lack of banding and wobble is excellent, especially compared to where you came from. You've got me thinking about a new extruder. I've got some no name aluminum extruder setup right now, but I've put enough abrasive filament through that it's made all my filament paths oblong.

Nice work!

It's like when you look at a piece of wood on your deck and you think: "do I need to replace that whole plank, or is it just fine?" So you stick a knife in to see how solid the wood is, does the knife immediately stop or does it plunge right through.

So we shall see just how rotten things are.

Good thing it's terrible and will eat the resources of any business foolish enough to attempt to actually replace workers with it.

As an addendum to 4 - state level power is also required to protect aspiring communist societies (socialists) from antagonistic forces with state level resources. If your state is not strong enough, you will be undermined into destruction by external forces, colonial powers that will use this "failure" as both propaganda and a method of appropriating your resources to further colonial projects.

Also, as someone who lives in and was raised in the heart of empire, the amount of propaganda that we have ingested is unfathomable.

It is good practice when you find yourself asking about any topic that may be deemed antithetical to a settler colonial project to thoroughly examine the sources of the information you're basing your opinion on, and perhaps consider that while you may be a very intelligent and thoughtful individual, expertly crafted and ubiquitous propaganda can shape your opinion as well.

That seems like far too little rain to do much farming without totally draining local aquifers.

Rewild it with native flora, do yurts and whatever to attract people to live in a sustainable way with community gardening. Activities can initially revolve around returning the land to a more natural state. As things mature people will invest in the community themselves, creating their own activities etc.

This guy's a giant piece of shit. I can't believe he's even in government. You'd have to be a real asshole to give this guy a government job where he's actually running things and able to affect people's lives.

Yeah... The spectrum of options arrayed before us appear to be heavily weighted towards enforcing arbitrary hierarchies which is... Not ideal.

"hey ho we love Joe!"

"Stop! Being! Mean! To! Us!"

"Our donors are mad!"

 

As the title says, this is the best tolerance test I've been able to produce since I first started printing a few years ago. There's stringing, but that would be solved if I dried it, yes I dry pla too. This print is the Sci3d Clearance Test as downloaded in January 2023, from 0.5mm to 0.15mm clearances.

Every spinner is loose and easily moves, I actually had a bit of trouble with the center spindle due to a bit of over extrusion on the top layers.

My machine is a modified ender 3 pro with Klipper. Currently have a 0.4mm hardened steel nozzle mounted with 0.2mm layer heights.

Sliced with the latest release prusaslicer, custom printer, filament, and print profiles.

The filament is one of my favorite PLAs, Voxel PLA, this one is red, but they all print the same for me.

Sorry for the boring post, but this was a huge achievement for me and basically everyone I know wouldn't understand the magnitude of this kind of repeatable precision on such a low cost machine.

 

Heard what sounded like a massive flushing sound from the sky, turns out I was right.

Just wanted to share a little success, after some wrangling I've finally got an M600 macro working on Klipper. I've been trying to print some ornaments for my holiday tree (a Christmas tree that I'm never taking down). These turned out pretty great!

(Ignore the wago connectors, they're "temporary")

ETA:

I used all Voxel PLA and found the model on printables. Sliced with Prusaslicer and just added the color changes at the appropriate layers.
