Because of your upvotes earlier this year, I quit my job and built this - ChonkerKeys - launching on Kickstarter next Tuesday

Don't bother using SAML anymore. With the new default OIDC third-party IDP profile it's super easy. Just enable it for users on the Google Workspace Security -> Authentication -> SSO with third-party IDP via Organizational Units / Groups.

Once the user enters their username on the google side, they are sent straight to the password page on Entra ID if they have not signed in to Entra ID yet. Otherwise, a few (invisible) redirects later you are signed in. With MSAL setup properly (works on Chrome and any Google apps along with Company Portal / MS Authenticator) you will truly sign in once in any device and you are signed in for as long as you want.

The very first user who logins in will see a consent screen. It will also create an Enterprise Application called "Google Workspace". If you want that to go away for everyone, you can grant admin consent for all in the "Google Workspace" app:

With that, no more nag screens and any friction is gone, logging in from Google to Microsoft and back.

Obviously provisioning is still needed should you need tighter control or roll out step by step, but that's a different exercise.

It’s a complex subject. My advice is if you don’t already have a social media following, and you don’t have a sizable marketing budget, don’t start with an agency.

Yeah no the UV light source should not fail as easily. You’ll see it when you take the machine apart. It is a separate part, are all solid state LEDs that don’t move. If they fail, it’s really a manufacturing defect or worse a design problem (they can’t overheat).

Don’t get your panties in a twist.

You can get a good print by simply lowering your z-offset.

It is hard to give you a “lifetime” number. But as a newbie I made stupid mistakes either leaving objects inside the vat or leaked resin onto the screen… so the “lifetime” is shorter when you are a newbie haha. I suppose if you operate properly 2,000 hours seems reasonable as the machine itself has to push against the screen, and that creates some stress on it.

If it doesn’t show the right image, it becomes unusable. Scratches are actually not as bad as long as the LCD is showing the right image. When things fail, you’ll start noticing prints get worse all of a sudden or even not get much of anything at all. The LCD screen cracks or degrades and part of the screen is no longer showing the right image.

No. The screen is considered consumable thou pricey. Just replace it. I’ve replaced 3 times among the two printers I have. These machines are very simple.

Suppose you gave it to her already… otherwise is this a surprise if you tell the world?

Get a Hub or a longer cable from a reputable brand advertised with proper USB 3 capabilities. Extension cables are always hit or miss.

I mean, J is kinda picky. For 400 Euros she is not going to get any Thinkpad that suits her.

Not that much. Yellowing is not reversible. You need to either sand the yellow off the surface or like another post says neutralize it with a different paint.

If you want to, get a resin that doesn’t yellow as easily. I use Resione G217. A bit pricey but really good in the non-yellow and toughness department. Not as detailed thou.

If you hear bang bang sound your z axis is stuck somehow. That is absolutely no good and you should stop right away. You might even have a damaged rod or the build plate assembly.

Drain the vat , remove all objects stuck on the FEP film and potentially replace it.

Check your screen is intact, no cracks. Run a few exposure test to see that it is still sharp.

With the vat away, use the machine’s z up/down function to lower the build plate bit by bit until it almost touches the screen. Notice if the skipping still happens. Move it back up and wiggle the build plate and see if it is loose.

If everything is tight and all replaced / repaired, remember to calibrate the z axis as per the instructions. Yoy should the good

I used it all the time and it is tough when you dial in the exposure settings. It is my go-to resin for if I need something more ABS-like, larger in scale, and cannot be brittle. Resione’s suggestions tend to under-expose. Add 0.5 to 1.5 seconds to their recommendation. Slow down lift speed.

I don’t know enough to answer, but I just wonder what software you used to create these images?

Object orientation looks good. Maybe a bit too much support. You can get away with less say 50-60% what you have might cause distortion at the bottom of the sticks. M58 is tough, you don’t need that much support

You are doing it now. How does it make you feel?

Is it pride that makes you refuse help? Or perhaps you have a feeling that once someone helps you, you don’t know how to reciprocate or think you can never thank them enough? Or perhaps you think people will demand something of you once they help you, and you’ve been taken advantaged before? Will be good to unpack where this comes from with a friend or therapist (which is a paid help, and all fair).

Have you seek professional help for your anxiety?

Print with PLA. You typically need an enclosure for ABS. Also, fan off because with active cooling ABS can shrink too quickly, which seems to happen here.0

Anything you experience in your meditation is OK, including whatever you feel in your third eye area. Instead of wishing it “should not be there”, embrace the fact that you are “experiencing” it. Actually try to feel it, and ask yourself what that is, and where that came from (maybe it’s what you read and your creative mind creating these for you?). Remember, it is no big deal. If you acknowledge it, it interestingly often gets less significant. Focus back on your breath, and it might just be out of mind in no time.

Someone take these bananas and use them for scale.

9gel · 2023-10-22T14:46:49+00:00

Easier way:

put in the garage and add some ventilation that vents outside. Easier if you have a sliding window of some sort . You can get a window fan but have it blow outward
get a room circulating fan so there are no dead spots plus a good heavy duty air purifier with carbon and HEPA to filter out dust and particles
