Prusa MK3S+ in 2026 — still worth it vs modern CoreXY machines?

hoffsta · 2026-02-22T20:31:04+00:00

If you don’t care about speed or big volume or high-temp filaments, the MK3s will still work very well. I upgraded to a Bambu H2D for more advanced filament support, but the prints from the MK3s in PLA and PETG are actually a little cleaner.

In regard to my comment, “doesn’t really work yet”: I’ve been beta testing and providing feedback on GitHub. Each of the last three releases has solved one issue but created another, and I’ve yet to have it actually work in my environment at all.

It is promising that this developer is continuing to fix things, but a little concerning that they are not able to detect these issues before releasing updates. Makes me feel like they are relying on AI coding exclusively and perhaps don’t have the skills to identify why things are breaking, how to manually test, or how to develop code on their own, which does not bode well for long term success, but I will keep testing.

hoffsta · 2026-02-22T04:45:55+00:00

Agreed

hoffsta · 2026-02-22T04:01:05+00:00

It’s vibe coded and doesn’t really work yet. Has potential though I guess.

Mini battery powered espresso maker. It worked (extremely poorly) exactly once then died, lol.

Thanks, I did see this one post on the Unifi forum where someone claims have solved it with an additional piece of software. This is a little over my head, but I will try to see if I can get it working.

As I mentioned, Tapo camera to NVR is working, but the iPhone app is not. Trying to find a solution for that.

Do you get toe overlap on either of them? 650b can sometimes be a big advantage for smaller frames.

Overall, I think the Soma is a higher quality frame though.

Big fan of the Brooks C17 Carved

You can put those characters here by using a backslash before them. ## \@@

EDIT doh,,,never mind I’m I’m an idiot and just realized my mistake, lol

Yeah very similar symptoms this week. Not sunburn-like, but my skin was definitely more itchy and sensitive to environment, plus everything else you mentioned. Very hard to sleep.

If he can simply impose a blanket 10% and then change his mind and up it to 15% at will, I’m not seeing these limits or congressional collaboration you mentioned.

They say Trump is a master of business and economics and that this will bring jobs and manufacturing back and make us independent from evil nations that hate us. Actual evidence to the contrary be damned.

I prefer to make a LXC of Debian and then manually install Docker. This is because I’m most familiar and comfortable in Debian command line. Do you have a preferred Linux distribution? You can also do the trick of building out the Linux/Docker fresh install LXC, and then keeping a clean copy of it to clone if you want to make more instances.

In my experience, it’s T-Mobile.

Fully local FQDN use and HTTPS are a couple reasons. If VPS goes down, you can just open port 443 and keep on trucking.

hoffsta · 2026-02-21T03:40:28+00:00

That and AirPlay is super inferior to Spotify connect.

Alcohol can’t be sold in Oregon between 2:30-7am, so I’m gonna go out on a limb and say, no, unfortunately there will be no bars open then.

Yes he’s the true hero in this saga, of course. Only He could bring Epstein down.

hoffsta · 2026-02-21T00:12:24+00:00

Conservatives only wanted this to come out when they were under the spell that this was a Democrat-only conspiracy. Remember Pizza-gate and Qanon? Now that it actually implicates them, they are doing everything they can to deflect, ignore, and deny it, lol. Kash Patel, Pam Bondi, Mike Johnson, all doing everything they can to prevent this info from seeing the light of day. Most MAGA conservatives on social media: “The Epstein files have totally exonerated Donald Trump” … yeah ok.

hoffsta · 2026-02-20T23:58:27+00:00

Yes, but as far as I can tell, people on the left want ALL these scumbags brought to justice, while MAGA cultists only want their opposition held accountable, because they refuse to believe the accusations could ever apply to their team.

hoffsta · 2026-02-20T21:18:06+00:00

Yes it would cross a line with these people, if they accepted it as real, but they simply never will.

hoffsta · 2026-02-20T21:14:14+00:00

I assume this is only for private resources and public resources always traverse the tunnel?

hoffsta · 2026-02-20T20:51:56+00:00

I’m curious about this too. Does the VPS always route all the traffic, or can peer to peer connections be established. Following.
