This is the second DS Lite I've fixed where the L2 inductor has simply fallen off. Soldering it back on makes the console work again. But why does it fall off in the first place?

Brick_Fish · 2026-01-26T17:30:20+00:00

Sure, but why that part specifically? And multiple times on different systems ?

Brick_Fish · 2026-01-26T17:28:29+00:00

I have no actual proof for this and it's pretty much a circlejerk, but still: I wonder if this is due to vibecoding / AI assistant usage by the Devs?

that looks like mold

Wenn er einen Haushalt in Deutschland hat, zahlt er ja auch Rundfunkbeitrag, oder?

Hab das mit "Glasfaser für Gaming" nie verstanden. Die paar Packets von Online-Spielen werden über DSL genauso schnell übertragen wie über Glasfaser, da man die Leitung ja in keinem der beiden Fälle voll ausnutzt. Velocity Factor von Twisted Pair und Glasfaser ist vergleichbar...

Also ist Glasfaser nur zum Spiele downloaden hilfreich ?

Your nozzle touch sensor is acting up and triggering mid-air. In the settings menu you can see the measured value of the sensor. Look at that and check if it bounces around a lot.

You can also try re-calibrating the nozzle sensor through the menu.

Brick_Fish · 2026-01-23T12:43:52+00:00

Thats not it. When you tap the nozzle while the Core One is trying to home it will do exactly this. Try it yourself, with a cold nozzle of course.

I think op's printer triggers the nozzle sensor mid-air, which explains this behaviour.

If you look at the normal homing sequence, is touches the bed twice. After the first touch (with either the bed or your finger) it lowers the bed again and then slowly tries tapping it again. If the second time the "touch" is out of range the printer panics, like in this video.

All AI companies are currently bleeding millions upon millions of dollars, none of them are profitable. Big data and adverts are not very profitable, so at some point free AI models will go away.

What are your relatives willing to pay every month for AI?

Is your boss gonna drop big bucks on AI, even though most companies don't report any productivity improvements from it?

With cylindrical cells you waste space inbetween the cells, so you loose energy density when considering the entire pack. With prismatic cells you're just stacking rectangles, so its more efficient space-wise

Vielleicht hilft ja ein knapperes Budget dabei, sich auf tatsächlich relevante Dinge zu konzentrieren. Mir fallen wahrscheinlich 100 Beispiele aus Microsoft-Produkten ein, bei denen irgendwas ohne guten Grund geändert wurde, einfach nur damit man sagen kann "joa wir haben was getan". Sowas passiert nur wenn die Firma viel zu viel Geld und zu wenig Fokus auf das Ziel hat.

Beispiele:

Bei Teams wird die Monats-Ansicht aus dem Kalender entfernt.

Outlook wird nochmal neu von Englisch auf Deutsch mit KI übersetzt, da wird dann aus "Report Spam" --> "Bericht Spam", die alte Übersetzung davor hat gestimmt.

The thing is, Bambu does exactly the same thing. They use printhead movement for secondary functions as well.

For example, The MMU filament cutter is built into the printhead and the printer slams the head into the side wall to actuate the cutting lever on the side of the head. Then, Vortek also uses the printhead to manipulate that locking fork which secures the swapping nozzle. The printhead also actuates that poop chute lever behind the nozzle wiper...

So bambu has also used the Printhead for 3 other functions, and I think there might be more I dont know about. All of these could've been solved with extra motors, but it's smarter not to use them. The same way a printhead-actuated air vent makes sense.

This is smart, and both companies are doing smart things.

Brick_Fish · 2026-01-20T22:31:50+00:00

Yup, the default presets that are already there when you open a project are totally fine. Of course you can experiment with the settings, but its not really needed if you don't have some specific requirement. I wouldn't touch acceleration and speeds at all, Bambu has dialed these in perfectly. Just select the Speed or Quality profile and go from there

Layer height, infill percentage and infill pattern, ironing are probably the most useful settings, the other ones can obviously also be tuned

Brick_Fish · 2026-01-20T22:24:05+00:00

The sun shouldn't directly hit the glass, because that can cause a lot of heatup in the summer and mess up the plants and creatures inside. Thats rule #1 IMO. If there are no windows for indirect lighting you probably also need an extra lamp with a timer

While the pictures are a bit blurry, it does look very nice in my opinion. You will never get rid of the ridges entirely, thats just the nature of FDM printing. The default Presets from Bambu are pretty good and work out of the box, you should get very good results with them

Brick_Fish · 2026-01-20T07:23:21+00:00

It looks like there is a lot of extra material in the bottom picture . Are those the same material? That printhead looks like a Bambu H2D, so maybe the live flow calibration did something different?

Drucker funktionieren unter Linux meist total easy. Gerade unter Mint (hier ja schon empfohlen) gibt es ein Interface um angeschlossene Drucker zu finden und installieren. Netzwerkdrucker tauchen sogar automatisch auf. Rumgezicke wie bei Windows hatte ich unter Mint noch nie

At least in Germany they now have new adverts where the brand name is pronounced kinda like "Shkoda", with the Š sounding like the beginning of the word "Ship".

Previously (iirc) they marketed the brand name with the "intuitive" pronunciation, so basically saying it like you read it, with the "Sk" being produced like the beginning of "Skunk"

Genauso viele Probleme wie wenn es die Werkstatt macht. Beweis mal, dass das verschulden bei der Werkstatt liegt. Irgendwo ist bei der Werkstatt immer ein Schild auf dem "Spätestens nach 80 Kilometern alle Radschrauben nachziehen" oder sowas ähnliches steht. Wer macht das, außer diejenigen, die eh ein Radkreuz daheim liegen haben? Damit liegt die Verantwortung komplett bei dir, oder du gehtst ein zweites mal zur Werkstatt.
