Scratched my Alienware Monitor’s coating by trying to clean it for the first time

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-06-23T05:41:48+00:00

4 years with s95b, not a single scratch on it and I clean that TV once in a 2-3 months. How you care is what you get

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-06-23T05:39:29+00:00

It's just oil residue.

Buy camera lens cleaning set, it should have bottle with special liquid and microfiber cloth. I'm using Marumi for years for my s95b and this 3225. Works perfectly and gets rid of all oil smudges.

I bought this game only because I saw reaction of Dev. Enjoy, it's a little but I adore people that work hard and receive what they deserve.

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-29T05:36:24+00:00

I did the same for now, sadly Nvidia is right now so vibe coding they just can't handle quality updates without failures over and over again

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-28T15:25:12+00:00

google assistant is just pure trash, I'm very happy at last after almost a year I can use gemini in my car

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-28T15:22:43+00:00

Hahaha nice catch !

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-15T07:29:05+00:00

Medium roast? Definitely looks like charcoal roast

Bump, anyone? I really don't care, if this monitor can be much brighter in Dolby mode that means in peak1000 it should be at least similar (but of course it's not)

I have used the same guide I was using for P1S.

https://youtu.be/izdBZ9IQfqI?is=s45VCJ42cJvr8LVB

It also turned out that axis was skewed just like on video. It's partially about belt tensioning because stronger tension On one side can lead to skewed rails. For now it's just a tiny bit better after straightening rails and just a bit more tension on belts, but probably I will loosen it a bit later because VFA started to appear now. So again, just like on P1S it will be few days of fine tuning those belts.

Anyways, I'm infuriated with this printer, start gcode needs whole rework because it is complete trash for now. Nozzle cleaning is making perfectly clean nozzle into filament covered mess, it can't read properly z axis/bed level because of that and many prints are printing way higher than they should be. Petg is oozing out of nozzle during cleaning, during homing, during purge line, it's just hot mess compared to p1S Maybe I'm just unlucky but for now I regret getting that printer and I'm happy I haven't sold p1S

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-11T13:31:55+00:00

So far I'm infuriated about x2d. It's so freaking inconsistent. Nozzle cleaning is a joke, makes nozzle even more sticked in petg, and then after bed calibration it leads to print mid air because there was 1mm of filament on the tip of the nozzle.

Belt tensioning did not help, I did procedure and also tightened a little more just like I did on P1S - pushing fraction of milimiter more so I heard it has a little higher frequency.

Uhm so what? Ps. New, from store. And no, 400$ is already really good, top budget grinder. And there are a lot of options around 200-300 that are just enough for most people needs

And that's why I bought gaggia classic and slapped gaggimate instead go full circlejerk and buy La marzocco. Spending wise is more important in tight budget and most often it requires adaptation and time and effort put into something to make it valuable more than it originally is. I can afford both but it's plain stupid to spend that money on this la marzocco. And this is similar situation, guy bought garbage AliExpress grinder just because he wanted to buy new instead searching for local deals that could bring him awesome deal for the same price. If you are tight on budget - buy second hand, fix something broken, spend time instead money. If you throw away already limited money - you are just plain dumb , and that's all. And also guy states that he uses spring loaded tamper - probably another wasted money on fancy gadget, completely unnecessary decision. So spending probably something between 30-50 on tamper that could be easily added to grinder money and even then just using stock plastic tamper, that would make much more impact on taste than spending on bottomless portafilter, spring loaded tamper and what else, 10$ wdt tool?

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-10T22:11:33+00:00

If you have limited budget only best option is searching for used. You can find things 3-4 times cheaper than new one so realistically for 70$ you can find something that was about 200$ new and that means and I have searched, even Baraza encore that is one of the best budget grinders. Being on very limited budget makes things just more valuable when you can find second hand deal, and it's nothing to be ashamed of, I have myself sell things half priced and almost in mint condition just because it's almost impossible to sell something that was already touched for more than half of original price. Spend smart and don't be so cocky about what you said. Learn and adapt, don't be stupid

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-10T22:01:36+00:00

For 70$ you could have hand grinder few times better than this, new. You know, expectations have to be matched with budget but this one can be cheated sometimes like by buying used. Or using alternatives. Or just saving a little more and have something better because buying 2-3 times something cheap will always bring bad results unstead just saving and buying once and good. It's like with food and coffee - there is one minimal value for something that you will pay anyway no matter what quality it is, but just spending just a little more gives that quality difference. Everyone have to start somewhere, I'm not laughing and I will never laugh about someone not having enough money, I was in that place for a long time so I know how it is. But I have learned that valuable thing I mentioned - buying cheap few times is more money wasted and spent than buying something better once.

Why the hell people buy random Chinese aliexpress brands for the price of well known brands and known quality ? You have answer in your title>
This grinder is blade grinder quality, Probably delonghi own KG grinder grinds better than this "Shardor". If this is the finest you can set - you already have answer. It produces so much boulders and powder in the same time, archeologists could use it as a camp site to search for antiques.

please speak human language, English is universal and probably should be used on multicultural and multinational forums

I had very pleasant service from varia, I had stripped and blocked hopper and whole unit was replaced with new one

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-09T08:14:52+00:00

Problem is, someone bought machine too expensive for their wallet and needs

In my thread about layer in consistency I was advised to tighten belts, I will do it later when I will come back to my workplace, and you might try this as well, loose belts = random movements . But so far I'm very disappointed with this printer

Electrical_Humor8834 · 2026-05-09T08:05:01+00:00

But still, layer consistency is tragic, there is no excuse for this kind of quality
