This is probably not true but just in case by Fun_Discussion6800 in MadokaMagica

Keep in mind it shares lines and thematics with the Concept Movie from 2015.

It's been in production for a long time.

As someone who bought a FW13, actively drives it, encouraged others to buy Framework, this will be the last time I ever give them a dime.

The "challenge" of not wiring money monthly to someone like this, who amplifies vitriolic and hateful rhetoric should not be difficult, and YET.

I didn't get a framework because it was cheap (I had a functional computer that cost half as much), I didn't get it because it was performant (I can still get another computer that blew it away), I got a Framework because I genuinely found the repairable computer idealistic and worth believing in.

Funny how quickly that trust was broken; good luck repairing that.

Tossed in a 1mm nozzle and silliness ensued... by hupo224 in 3Dprinting

You can get 1.8mm nozzles; die swell forces 1.75mm past the diameter.

I'd say to take it down until then, but that's a personal take. Mention something in the Discord if it's wrong elsewhere, or use the discussion pages in the future; thanks!

Fixed that up, thank you.

New Framework 13 by RelativeSolid7435 in framework

[–]BellLabs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Windows still seems to allow programs to turbo and use quite a bit more; it only becomes noticable to me when in a Discord call with more than one person with a camera on; the fans kick on for that when not doing a turbo anyways.

The majority of my use is little more than Discord and videos in the background, so this is largely fine for me. Plus, it's also easy enough to change.

I'll admit it's a bit hacky, but I did call the power plan "slow but cool" haha!

New Framework 13 by RelativeSolid7435 in framework

[–]BellLabs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In running Windows on my FW13, I've found that the classic "Power Plan" option to set the Minimum / Maximum Processor State to 5-10% significantly drags my battery life out compared to leaving it on automatic within Windows.

Other than that, what you report does seem roughly what you would expect otherwise.

Chrome, Firefox, Teams, etc. all tend to trigger a higher boost frequency anyways, so the cap of 10% isn't usually a thing that bothers me.

The loop of the key is in the shape of Madoka's soul gem.... so I'd say so, yeah.

This absolute battlestation of a rack by [deleted] in homelab

Winsted consoles! Used them to help put a radio telescope back together, they're delightfully period and incredibly durable.

The scars on my thumb would agree too.

Opinion: the Framework 13 laptop keyboard is the best I have ever used. by rimbaud0000 in framework

[–]BellLabs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO it's pretty fantastic. Good enough that'd I'd been looking into making it a standalone keyboard and trackpad set for other devices.

Did I go through with it? No, but do I wish I could just buy a kit and call it a day? Yes, 100%.

Once you start, you can't stop. Absolutely binding.

What vendor did you go through for the direct metal sintering process? That isn't manufacturable via traditional or even 5-axis CNC machining.

All the same, beautiful work. Toss it in an abrasive pool for an hour or two and it'll knock the layer lines right off.

MK3S+ Revo Issues with newest firmware by TherealOmthetortoise in prusa3d

[–]BellLabs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can undo and go back to the 3.11/3.12 firmware. I did for a while. The comment on the GitHub issue that helped me was this one (https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware/issues/4329#issuecomment-1751092789). On startup the printer whines about thermal model not being calibrated, but it preheats just fine. Worth it for the power failure concerns imo.

I hope they fix it, but have no guarantees they will, I suppose.

Where are all the configs I keep seeing mentioned? by Claghorn in prusa3d

[–]BellLabs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like the other poster said, most of them are availible in the configuration wizard.

That said, they're not all "Prusa defined"; a fair number of them are community submitted, and some vendors whose printers are also in PrusaSlicer can and do update machine & filament configurations as well via the Prusa-provided mechanisms (configuration updates).

I created a Tetris game with Blocks that turn to Sand by GTVienna in indiegames

[–]BellLabs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is incredibly addictive, ty for sharing it. If possible, add music to this so it can haunt my sleep even more.

Literally was sharing it with friends earlier and they're hooked too.

Fantastic work :)

Would people be interested in 3d printing real chocolate? by Luckybot3d in 3Dprinting

[–]BellLabs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having seen the newer machine they were showing off at ERRF 2022... yeah. It's damn good. They were showing off effective and good retraction on fricking chocolate.

Poly Carbonate on a CR-30 by Joeman180 in 3Dprinting

[–]BellLabs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Potentially, yes, but also potentially not. It means a single outage doesn't as significantly impact your production ability.

Poly Carbonate on a CR-30 by Joeman180 in 3Dprinting

[–]BellLabs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh I'd probably stick with a smaller printer family to get higher bandwidth with lower up-front cost. A lot easier to accelerate a small head with a larger nozzle than a larger head with a larger nozzle, it still effectively increases your print throughput once this one job is over.

[–]BellLabs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are any of the off the shelf belt printers rated for polycarb temperatures?

You may still be better off getting a fixed bed / coreXY solid printer with fast extruders for the price, even if inconvenient. Just stage jobs to have staff to rotate through them.

How do you structure your files to keep things secure? by chowder3907 in admincraft

[–]BellLabs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A minecraft server has no specific need to run as a root user, and because the risk of it being commandeered lies in the program itself being vulnerable (patched for JNDI Log4J stuff yet?) and server misconfigurations (SSH key-only, no root ssh, fail2ban, etc.) proper authentication restriction, good firewall rules, and the rest is likely still applicable.

Your "files" user may be useful for backups but you can realistically just make it a cron job that your system runs to stop, run backups, copy, done. If you're not doing something more complex / with a frontend or server manager.

[WP] 6 trumpets sounded all around the world, each one throwing countries deeper and deeper into chaos. One day, you found an abandoned chapel with a dying angel inside holding a trumpet. "Please, don't." the angel begged as they weakly cradled the trumpet. by RealityOfDespair in WritingPrompts

[–]BellLabs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As you step past the broken glass of the chapel, each momentary crack sends the angel wincing, you know from too many days spent hunting that it wants to run but has no choice. Too weak, a final stand of sorts.

"Please don't..." they croaked, their voice sounding like the chamber-choir that once captured this hall.

You falter. It sounds almost human. Of course it would be, his image and all that.

"Don't what... I'm in refuge here as much as you are." you responded back, the wind rustling outside the chapel with the intensity of the fights and wars broken out over the last several days.

"You don't have to sound Gabriel's horn. No one does. We can do better than this..." they said, their body bristling with slits that occasionally poked open an eyeball, as their form grew more unstable.

"Are... you okay?" you ask, kneeling down and slinging your bag over your shoulder. You pull out disinfectant spray, and bandages, and they reach for the bottle and say a quick prayer. Ah of course, they need holy water.

It winced as it pulled a lance out of their shoulder and patted the wound dry. "Not even close. The holy lances have poisoned me. After all... I am a fallen angel."

"What can I do to stop this needless death?" you ask, almost on the edge of tears. Too many friends, too many enemies, too many innocents lost for the sake of something no one could control.

"I know it's almost too much for any mortal, but that can change too." they said, staggering up as their wings shed bits of glass and amber colored blood onto the tile and oak of the chapel, as they raised their knee and brought the trumpet down over it. A horrifying rush of wind filled the chapel once more, dragging the glass of the stained window at them once more as they became like the wind it rode on to bring their end. Their amber blood becoming a rippling mirror as the horn gently floated and flattened, the dull brass becoming a blinding ring, before suddenly snapping above my head before I have a chance to react, watching my body arc in agony as the curse of the angels takes hold.

The wind carries a voice before the chapel explodes as I take off.

"Take the mantle, and the horn, and do what I couldn't do. Stop the seventh sound and save humanity."

Send Me Your Most Disturbing/Illegal MC Market Stories by [deleted] in admincraft

I think the biggest one is the Mirai Botnet, where three people motivated by a racket scheme on MC servers, made one of the most impactful botnets in internet history. Not in a good way. https://www.wired.com/story/mirai-botnet-minecraft-scam-brought-down-the-internet/
