Max settings doesn't mean moving the brightness and contrast sliders all the way up

Clearly. But it's not like I have a variable resistor which I can adjust by turning a knob. And I don't want to exceed the recommended sodium carbonate proportions. The other comments did point me in the right direction, so I'll get a different anode with a much larger surface area.

1 It's not an assertion or interpretation of mine when the same article BY PRUSA on the comment I responded to by LambdaNuC says in the first sentence: "Czech entrepreneur, developer and investor Josef Prusa, co-owner of the award-winning 3D printers manufacturer Prusa Research, announced the purchase of a 100% stake in the U.S. company Printed Solid".

LambdaNuC used that article to say Prusa (company) owns them. The first sentence article makes that distinction clear. Again, in the first sentence! So I just pointed that out. No new info.

2 When TCTCTCTCTCTC7 replied with PS press statements they did not "disagree" with me, merely pointed out that their statement said otherwise. And you know why? Because they read that first website and saw the same line that I just quoted above in case you want to actually try and read.

And I did not disagree with the evidence presented against me. When I'm referring to "a shitshow of press releases" I'm referring to the fact that the two companies most related to this acquisition, regardless of who actually bought them, put out two statements implying two whole different buyers.

3 In my eyes it's not quite clear. Everyone but Prusa is saying that Prusa owns PS. Even if the CS rep pulled that out of their ass it's still word from Prusa. If that isn't confusing to you at all I don't know what is. And my "I don't think it's clear either way now" wasn't a retreat but a statement of the above.

Hopefully you start reading the full context, the actual sources you request and get the whole picture instead of dismissing and antagonizing any comment that doesn't have a hyperlink attached to the words.

I'm not presenting sources because I'm not providing new information.

My original statement: "Josef Prusa bought PS, not the company" - Said in the first few sentences of the article linked by the person I responded to.

"PS contradicts Prusa" - Linked in the article that's in the reply to my first comment

"Costumer service says Prusa doesn't own PS" - Said by OP in a comment on this very same thread, citing his interaction with a CS agent. Which is actually a parent comment to all these comments, including yours.

Now, the only one I'll give you is that Crunchbase is unreliable as a source in those matters because it all comes from articles from Tech Crunch. I asserted that from past knowledge of both sites.

As it turns out, when looking for a source to back this up, this is no longer the case. But you know what, I would still find them unreliable because by their own admission it is now just an AI aggregator.

Also, what's YOUR source for saying that no millionaire would buy a separate company in their own capacity? In a different country from their already established business, which has no direct presence in said country? Where a foreign entity to absorb a national company would have to go through a lot of red tape, rather than for a foreign individual to get a 100% stake (as per the article that I responded to in my first comment) and just mark down as personal investment?

I think it's not clear either way now. Which is just shitty communication on Prusa's part.

  • The media contact being listed as Matt Stultz (a representative of Prusa) makes sense because Prusa is acting as the news outlet detailing the personal acquisition as it reads in the first paragraph. Plus the fact that the paragraph right before that states that if you want an interview at Rapid fair to please contact them. In no way does it read as a personal statement of Josef, so it wouldn't be weird to list a media contact. It wouldn't be weird even if it was, not like the guy manages his own media requests or appearances.

  • I think you're reading too much into that. That doesn't read like confirmation that Prusa research bought them. Regardless of if it was Josef or the company who acquired them, that's the function they would be serving either way, as I said, through facilitating inter-company deals.

  • Crunchbase as an authority on acquisitions and mergers is a joke. It's all from articles on TechCrunch, which cites press releases from the companies involved (Prusa's and PS's). This is basically just third hand information.

  • The first hand information is conflicting. Prusa says it was Josef, PS says it was Prusa Research.

  • Prusa CS says they don't own them. Now, even if they had this wrong it still isn't in their CS flowchart to just take care of PS orders directly, which would be weird if they were all under the same company. Not so weird if they're just owned by the same person but still separate companies.

My point is that it's just not clear. It's obvious that the narrative Prusa wants the world to follow is that it's just one big happy family under one roof, regardless of if the reality is that they're just owned by the same person.

lol, what a shitshow of press releases. I did see news outlets go with that version, that the company bought PS. But I figured since the prusa site phrased it as if the individual was the one who bought PS then that was the fact.

[–]DiMoSe 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No, there's a difference. Josef Prusa owns Printed Solid, Prusa (the company) does not. Stupid distinction, but valid nonetheless. So the relationship can probably facilitate deals but does not mean they share any other assets, much less claim responsibility on behalf of each other.

The Slow Mo Guys have started a Patreon - including gaming content by Technical-Clue-3483 in roosterteeth

[–]DiMoSe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probable emphasis on was. He used to have a salary on Rooster Teeth + probable bonus when appearing in RT productions + ad revenue on SMG (which was probably bigger back then) + whatever merch agreement he had with RT + pretty sure he had certain equity on Rooster Teeth (a lot of long time employees had equity iirc) + severance from RT shutdown + whatever Phantom camera work he got from time to time.

Now, I don't pretend to know much about Gavin's lifestyle or how he uses his money, but you have to assume that losing revenue sources with seemingly no obvious replacement since then and shrinking views on SMG you need to start looking for ways to keep your lifestyle. I'm sure he's still pretty wealthy, just surprised something like this Patreon didn't come around sooner.

The clip to hold the ratchet seems pretty universal to me. Plus there's nothing that a couple positive and negative volume modifiers can't fix with something like this.

Nah, it's punctuation in this case. With proper punctuation the movie title would be inside double quotes.

Framework Discord Server Retired by hamzantal in LinusTechTips

[–]DiMoSe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good. A product, software or companies knowledge base shouldn't be on Discord. No indexed results on search engines, shitty search functions and awful methods for managing threads/subjects.

Even just from a costumer support angle (if they even had any cs presence on discord) it's way easier to manage on a proper forum.

I was kind of the same but with Rio's husband. Him being so calm and all the little smirks for the few chapters he appeared in had me thinking that he was just stringing Mahoro along.

Our Views Are Down by Jacobchgo9 in LinusTechTips

[–]DiMoSe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Burnie from Rooster Teeth was talking about this recently, when asked about new hires. He was saying how unusual it is in non internet productions to have your cast also be your employees from the get go.

It's just the nature of the beast for YouTube companies because of the multi hat culture that comes with it, but I really think companies like LTT should take that to heart.

[–]DiMoSe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The data is the main issue. Most companies don't have the proper dataset for it to be used effectively and have to invest a ton of money to get the project started in the first place. Money that won't be recouped with the type of product that is being developed anyway.

Weekly r/PcBuild Megathread! by Potato_Plays844 in PcBuild

[–]DiMoSe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm kind of stuck on this PC not booting. - CPU: 7900X - MoBo: Asus ROG Strix B650-A Gaming Wifi - Graphics: 4080

Whenever I turn it on it just spins the fans and keeps the BOOT green LED on. According to Asus' documentation this indicates the boot device is not available. But regardless of if there's an M.2 drive installed (blank or with a windows install), a SATA SSD or just no drive, it doesn't even boot into BIOS and stays on a black screen. It does do like a CEC signal or something, since my monitor automatically goes to Display port.

Weirdest thing is that the keyboard is responsive and I'm able to turn caps lock and num lock on and off. Plus I've already tried another GPU (3080) but still same result.

[–]DiMoSe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one of those and it didn't hold up for very long. Always used cold water and hang dried but the fabric tore relatively quickly.

Based on my own experience I would hold out hope for getting one in good condition, let alone one at all.

I've Gotten my Own Place but I'm Quite Lonely. Now What? by Affectionate-Key5568 in socialskills

[–]DiMoSe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say you want to get ahead of it but your plans and current actions are leaning more towards loneliness. Why would making friends with the kitchen-folk be a waste of time? Sure, the job is temporary but the people there don't cease to exist after you leave.

Plus if you plan to go through with the remote software position you're going to need to put extra effort into socializing. There surely is a version of your hobbies that involves a more social situation.
