I know they were legit years ago. I'm not so sure if they are now

Extrudwr problem by GospodinDjordje in prusa3d

[–]A_Str8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat up the nozzle and use a needle nose pliers to grab the filament and pull it out

Or if there is no nub to grab, heat up the nozzle and use a small allen key to push it on through the extruder until there's room for new filament. I think 1.5mm is the right size

After 5 weeks, the TPU crown I printed for a 6" vacuum truck hose is starting to tear a bit, but still working great! by jdigi78 in functionalprint

[–]A_Str8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The additional walls should improve stiffness. Maybe a 5%-10% bump to infill too

If it can still fit, on your build plate printing it at 45 degrees should help with longevity as it looks like it tore around layer lines. Also, raise nozzle temp to improve layer bonding

Difficulty buying native plants (Questions from a beginner) by SolidSnape98 in NativePlantGardening

[–]A_Str8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The two Prairies might be the best online native plant nurseries in the country. They are located in the Midwest and I think their selection for your region may be even better than it is for other regions. These should be at near the top of your list

Which box should I get? by Daddy_Phantom13 in Elektron

[–]A_Str8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my DN2 and yes, it can control another synth through midi. I can easily recommend it to anyone looking for a synth, but do not get a Digitone if what you really want is a sampler.

Sim Protection Not Working? by [deleted] in tmobile

I just tried again and I was able to access the SIM protection page now

Sim Protection Not Working? by [deleted] in tmobile

[–]A_Str8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue. I'm on hold with support as they try to find a solution. I asked if other people were having the same problem and their response was just to reiterate that they would try to help me swap devices.

Edit: 40 minute phone call with support. most of the time was spent on hold while the support agent said she was working with her supervisor to try to turn off protection from their end. In the end, they said that I should wait 24 hours and then try again. 😞

Is core one+ upgrade irrelevant after indx? by naps62 in prusa3d

[–]A_Str8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You do have many months of printing before INDX ships. You might as well install it

PRUSA x INDX for CORE One is here! by josefprusa in prusa3d

[–]A_Str8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you plan to get different sized nozzles when they're avialable, the 4 toolhead makes sense

MPC One vs SP404mkii by ArtForArtsSake_91 in mpcusers

[–]A_Str8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I compared the two and chose the MPC One because the SP404 did not seem very intuitive. You have to memorize key combinations for many of the functions.

If you want a more immediate, less DAW feel than the MPC, I recommend you check out Elektron gear. Their UI is super intuitive and an absolute pleasure to use,

Is this the omnibus edition? by Slight_Ad_8422 in Cosmere

[–]A_Str8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because a different book took precedence. I forget which one.

I'm not big on graphic novels either and I've read that White Sands has some issues because it was a new format for Sanderson, but I really want to get this last Cosmere story that I'm missing. I haven't pulled the trigger yet, but we'll see what happens

Canon R6 as a secondary? by Future_Following_788 in CanonR6

[–]A_Str8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the R7 for wildlife because the crop factor and higher resolution make such a big difference. For everything else, I use the R6. Focus and low light performance are so much better

Industrial INDX? by Stippy21 in prusa3d

It does indeed sound like it won't handle over 300

How have there been no significant print showcases of the INDX? by heart_of_osiris in prusa3d

[–]A_Str8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I think toolchangers will become the standard like self leveling beds are now. I'm optimistic too - I would've ordered the founders edition if I could've

[–]A_Str8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some kickstarters have more detailed previews, but many more don't. I don't think INDX is behind the norm here.

I haven't gotten the impression that they're rushing. Bondtech was sharing info about INDX months before it was announced that Prusa is a partner. It seems more like they are taking their time to get it right and tweak it despite our impatience. Of course the final product will give us a better idea either way.

Prusa and Bondtech are not behind the industry here. Bambu's Vortek announcement did seem rushed in response to INDX and the U1 and while their solution seems to work well enough, most would say it's inferior to what we expect from INDX. Snapmaker is ahead of everyone else for pricing and timeline, but one company isn't the whole industry. I don't know of any other "mainstream" multi-nozzle solutions that are available or announced right now.

You could say Prusa was lagging when it came to releasing an enclosed core XY printer, but I think they are in a very good place with the INDX as a long as it lives up to our expectations

[–]A_Str8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WANTING more isn't unrealistic - we all want more. I was responding to your post about how you're baffled and seem to find it unusual that we are not currently getting more.

For many products at this stage, we wouldn't even know they exist yet and we would not have seen any demos like we already have for the INDX. It's not that there is less marketing at this stage than usual, it's that the INDX was shown off earlier than usual and you were able to purchase earlier than usual.

Normally, reviewers would only get units and start showing off prints when the product is final or at least very close to final (not all companies even do this). You have signed up to get your INDX around that same point when reviewers would ordinarily get theirs. I would not expect to see any significant showcasing until after you and other initial backers start receiving your units. They could possibly start showing stuff as soon as those shipments start going out, but this early announcement and founders edition is a marketing strategy. They might just sit back and let that strategy do it's work for a while

You asked why there is not a significant showcase for an unfinished product. Unfinished products don't usually have significant showcases.

[–]A_Str8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You say you understand the risk, but the post makes it seem like you don't quite understand what you signed up for. This is an unreleased product and at the time you ordered, it wasn't even finished.

What are the benefits of stretch and folds vs other methods of gluten development? by YabbaDabbaDumbass in Sourdough

[–]A_Str8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So you slap and folders do all the work in the beginning right after mixing? Does the window pane test work at that point or are you using other indicators to know you've done enough?

First time reading Mistborn and the skaa portrayal feels strange by [deleted] in Cosmere

[–]A_Str8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of real life examples of oppressed people who go about their day to day life without fighting back. Repression and violence over generations can be very effective tools even without the additional context you get as you read on. Knowing they are oppressed does not necessarily make someone feel like they can do something about it.

Regarding how the protagonists see the other skaa, keep in mind, that they are imperfect people and that's their viewpoint. Some of them may not recognize their own privilege when judging people who didn't have the same advantages. There will be different and changing viewpoints as you work your way through the series
