Only thing that’s annoying is certain niche communities are completely dead on lemmy

“the things that made Reddit Reddit years ago, before it turned into generic social media”

Bingo. From a financial standpoint reddit doesn’t care about how it used to be. Being generic social media is worth more money to them

🙏

6 years to break even is probably a bit much, maybe 2-3

But it’s your choice if you want to use it or not. I’m happy using the app with ads

Oh okay

Google play or iOS? Google play is 3 stars i think

Edit: Sorry sync is only for Android not iOS. I think its because of geographical location or device type as another user said

Why does it have 3 stars on the app store

Thanks for the info. Yeah I dont think we will be printing anything with metal. I just heard theres some process that does that but I am not sure how that would work

Also Im guessing you just printed the box, not the little black and red connectors, or the black piece that holds the screen or the little yellow buttons? Just wondering as I might try something similar some day.

True. Is it glued together or do the joints just hold it all together?

Very cool. Would you be worried at all about heat?

So to run the Bambulab I have to use my own 3d modelling and then a slicer?

Also I dont really get metal filament. People say you can get a metal-plastic filament and after you’ve modelled it you melt away all the plastic. Wouldnt that require the metal to be melted ? (2000+ degrees celsius)

I haven’t ever participated in it but its just a canvas you can draw stuff on but requires lots of people cooperating together. Could be fun to do with friends I guess, like a common thing is drawing your countries flag with fellow countrymen

On reddit you go to /r/place and can place a pixel on a certain place on this huge canvas of like… idk 5000 * 5000 pixels wide? Its a huge canvas of pixels. So you and your friend or another subreddit can try team up and conquer part of the canvas, lets say the bottom right corner. And then you can all work together and create a little flag or another picture/image like this one. I am not sure on the limit of how many pixels each user can post per minute, or the exact number of pixels, but its roughly something like 5000-10000 pixels wide and high

EDIT: This image you see would be a tiny portion of the entire canvas. You can tell because the resolution of ‘Spez’ for example is pretty bad, which means its only a few pixels wide. If it was taking up the entire canvas it would be perfect resolution and you wouldnt see janky edges

This is an example of the entire canvas at some point over the past few days. Its probably actually something like 50000x50000 pixels

No i dont think he should be decapitated literally but maybe in the sense he would not be involved in Reddit anymore

It can be useful asking it certain questions which are a bit complex. Like on a plot which has the y axis linear and x axis logarithmic, the equation of a straight line is a little bit complicated. Its in the form y = m*(log(x)) + b rather than on a linear-linear plot which is y = m*x+b

ChatGPT is able to calculate the correct equation of the line but it gets the answer wrong a few times… lol

I used GPT4 the other day and it worked perfectly for calculating formulas of straight lines on linear-log plots but maybe I was the 2%

Thanks. I think we will go for the Bambu P1S looks like. What is an orcaslicer? Also do you know can you print metal on the Bambu?

I think we might go with the Bambulab. I have seen quite a few say they are pretty reliable. As opposed to something like the Ender 3 which I have heard people say are a bit unreliable and you have to spend time tweaking.

Some parts of the Bambulab apparently you can’t buy. Here is a youtube comment i saw “yes, they do, but as he alluded to, some of them are not replaceable, or even serviceable, like the carbon rails …”

Hopefully the carbon rails (whatever they are) wont break though lol

Which is good because phishing sites suck especially when they start hitting high up on google searches
