Definitely nothing new, that’s been going on since before I got into 3d printing like 7 years ago.

There was a point where having a good first layer was actually critical to having good print bed adhesion and successful prints. 99% of problems were solved by re leveling the bed and/or cleaning it.

Now, with abl and fancy tools like lidar and better bed surfaces, it’s not nearly as essentially to get a perfect first layer, but it’s still a sign of a well calibrated printer.

I dare say it’s one of those things that’s just hung around because as waves of new users join the community (especially around times like Xmas when a lot of new people join), they start researching stuff and see older users posting about their first layer and think of it as some kind of rite of passage, so they post theirs… And then the next group come in and see it, wash rinse repeat…

Oh that looks cool, is this to stamp things you’re making or just playing with it for fun?

I’m curious who is the arbitrator for what’s a valid security concern or not. If it’s done by an independent group, it might make it harder to get around. If it’s self disclosed, then yeah nothing will change

Glad you got it sorted

It’s been a while since I used my resin printer, but I had a similar problem at one point and it came down to the support connection to the print… No matter how many supports I put, it didn’t change the outcome, but when I made the support thicker and made the connection point thicker, suddenly I had no more problems… It just meant a little extra post processing on some parts

I don’t think people realise how generous steam is by allowing Devs to sell steam keys on other platforms and still handle all the distribution and updates and everything for a key they didn’t get paid for, and all they ask is you give the same or better deal to customers who purchase direct through steam

Given that steam let’s you sell keys on other platforms (like gog, gmg, etc) and activate them on steam, and have steam handle all the heavy work of file distribution and stuff, it makes sense that steam wouldn’t want you to sell steam keys cheaper on other platforms and make them wear all the cost of distribution… Otherwise they’d get no sales and end up with all the expense

The only other choice would be to no longer allow you to get steam keys to sell on other platforms or even to give away for review purposes or things like that.

The article is from a month ago, about a layoff that happened half a month before that, so this all happened before the ai rollout when they were probably still optimistic it was a good idea

The difference is that there were concerns Huawei would share the data with the Chinese government for them to spy on various groups/individuals

Most countries like America have no problem with you selling the data to other companies or governments (the US Gov themselves buy huge amounts of data) to spy on you, just not to the Chinese government.

So if the data stays with Toyota (or the people they sell it to), they aren’t likely to upset the governments… But if the data is directly shared with Huawei, it’s likely to run into some pretty quick walls

And how many payments the politicians take from local/competing car companies haha

Will probably depend on if the data stays with Toyota or is shared with Huawei

Many ways around that these days. Dynamic DNS, CloudFlare tunnels, tailscale funnel, reverse SSH tunnels, etc

My setup uses a reverse proxy hosted on a free Oracle VPS that feeds through tailscale VPN, so it doesn’t really matter where the devices are connected, as long as they are connected to the tailscale VPN, the reverse proxy on the vps can serve the stuff

I run Plex and about 30 other things including my own website through it all without any issues

With the fediverse, Don’t forget the government’s that have started up their own mastodon instances, and larger news orgs like bbc

Similar boat, I would last about 4-8 days without medical intervention (dialysis and other regular treatments I need)

It’s ok, you put them out flat in the sun and all creases get smoothed out

You know how artists can poison their images for AI… We need a way to poison content on Reddit

Yeah this is my thoughts too which makes me kinda sad and think the story of the other cat attacking her might not be the truth

My previous cat as a kitten could clear the entire house… It did get better over the years but was still pretty bad 19 years later lol

So this study was done:

https://opg.optica.org/jdt/abstract.cfm?uri=jdt-10-8-635

And the summary result was:

The results indicated that the moving picture quality improved more with an increase in frame rate from 60 to 120 frames per second (fps) than from 120 to 240 fps when viewing from a distance of 3 H (three times the image height).

This article goes into the depth of it: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/8531714

And if I’m understanding the study correctly (which there’s a high chance I am as it’s 4 am and I haven’t had more than an hour sleep in 2 days) but essentially the brain perceived higher frame rates to be higher quality across all participants but with diminishing returns

This is all probably only part of the answer you’re looking for but hopefully it helps you to find the full answer

Good for you. I have too… That doesn’t mean it’s safe or legal everywhere and doesn’t give any reason why turning it into a portable bedroom is a bad idea
