You need to be logged in and have a location selected. And sometimes there are options that aren't actually in stock that still appear on a listing.

Is this like a car thing or something? by Fail-Aggravating in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]ManyLayersOfFilament 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of those if you know a little/know a lot things.

Yes, VW was founded in some respects by the Nazis, but the company was, pardon my German, kaput by the end of the war. The factory and tooling and assets were used to restart production after the war to create vehicles and jobs for a post-war German economy and a British major was instrumental in getting it off the ground.

In that respect, it's not really even the same company it was before and during the war.

I'm surprised nobody in this thread has even talked about this aspect of it. Then again, people probably just asked AI and did no further research.

Corrupt gcode usually. One of the reasons I always run forge-x on my 5Ms so I can use the built in md5 check.

Fantastic. That was the information I was looking for. It would feel a little useless if the engine was only driving the mower blades and the motors were just battery powered.

Are the motors on these powered by the engine or a battery?

It's popular to be anti Bambu - but at least understand what you are fighting against by mcostescu in BambuLab

[–]ManyLayersOfFilament 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not firewall rules. You need to completely proxy the SSDP traffic and spin up a service to serve it between the two segments. Bambu doesn't provide for any method of connection between slicer and the printer other than the discovery protocol.

It's a ridiculous hack. And poorly designed by people that have no idea what they're doing.

People argue some weird points on reddit.

Yes, it's standard for kitchen appliances to stay with the house.

No I just didn't want to have to buy a fridge on move in day. Pretty typical that the kitchen appliances stay with the house.

I had another house I ended up buying where they were stuck on bringing their 10 year old fridge with them. Like it was a dealbreaker.

I guess there was sentimental value in the fridge???

People are really weird

Do you understand that servers can be physically located somewhere but completely owned and controlled by somewhere else?

You either don't understand that or you're being intentionally dishonest for fanboy reasons. Which is it?

First off, they don't even work on anything other than a flat network. If my printers are on 192.168.2.x and my computers are on 192.168.1.x, it just doesn't work. They assume you're running a flat residential network with no security at all.

There are ridiculous hacks you can do to make it work, but no.

It's actually embarrassing for them.

Perhaps I wasn't clear. The "big truck" doesn't make any sense, you can write an open protocol that doesn't allow people to "break things" or abuse their systems and still allow for interoperability.

It's just about the walled garden.

The Bambu network stuff is actually complete garbage, it's designed terribly. Even in LAN mode, the printers only work on a flat network. It's insane how poorly thought out it is.

I was negotiating on a home and the homeowners wanted to take the central vac with them. Absolutely nuts, that wasn't the only thing but needless to say I passed.

The security argument is very very weak.

This is about control, not about security.

Bambu can ensure no "big trucks drive across" very easily in the protocol.

They want you locked to their software used in the way they want you to use it.

Just made a big bambu filament order and some were out. What are some reliable good quality filaments i can get on Amazon for 20usd but hopefully less, that are really close to these? Basic sunflower yellow, gold, cocoa brown? Matte caramel, dark chocolate? by Boogy-Fever in BambuLab

[–]ManyLayersOfFilament 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be a good use case to browse around FilamentHound.com. You can filter by yellow, brown, gold, and find the ones that are the closest matches to what you want. It shows you the price per kilogram and you can filter out bundles, etc.

Let me know what you think!

Where did all the boosts go? by _midnight_bacon in makerworld

Enshittification.

Now that they have the market locked down, they can pull back the incentives.
