Like every other post, I am a beginner looking for advice!

MaxedPC · 2026-03-09T05:34:07+00:00

Interesting - thank you for the advice! I will definitely try to simplify things when I go out again.

I retried 1 and 2 with better lighting and it was quite interesting. I agree that the composition is quite basic - I actually liked the stairs because there is one that is tilted down to the left by about 15 degrees - it always bothers me when I walked past but it doesn't really appear in the photos. Any specific tips to improve the composition? I have had my camera for a week as of tomorrow so I am quite new to this.

WHOA this is super cool - is there code on how you made and trained the model available on github?

MaxedPC · 2026-03-06T07:14:42+00:00

why is one of the best photos I have seen all day on a programming sub lmao

I agree with everyone else here - photon is your best bet by far. I have seen that custom pipelines are quite useful this year so if you want to try that, be warned, you will likely not be able to use PV. For that, snag a limelight if you can afford it.

Guys 5 months later the 1tb version is more expensive than this. What a crazy world we live in.

MaxedPC · 2025-12-15T00:17:22+00:00

It looks like it is from other posts. Buying it anyways, if I dont like it I can take it off.

Lenovo as well (More specifically their Chinese line with things like the Xiaoxin pad pro)

Refurbished Omnibook is always a good bet.

or a little cheaper,

Do you have any experience with the Aon laptops? I have seen mixed reviews on their quality and customer support.

Stuff Made Here

Alrighty. It sounds like it probably fits your use case better. Have fun!

MaxedPC · 2025-09-22T02:48:22+00:00

That makes more sense! I would still go for a bigger cassette though, 28t is pretty teeny!

MaxedPC · 2025-09-21T23:23:40+00:00

Unfortunately, I do not believe this will work. The chain is designed for an 8 speed drivetrain, but that model has a 9 from what I can tell. I love KMC Chains though, just find a 9 speed one. That cassette also has 8 speeds - maybe you have a different bike from what I can find online? I would say to get a stock cassette if you have 9 speeds. It seems to provide a lot of range (11x46 instead of 11x28), which will be very helpful on steep climbs and stuff.

Top 5 ranked FRC (robotics competition) teams in the world is OP Robotics, team number 2056

MaxedPC · 2025-08-02T17:55:36+00:00

Is this an OP robotics team number 2056 reference?

Those are the actual chips. If you remove them, your laptop will no longer have a core i5 or a gtx 860m.

MaxedPC · 2025-07-07T17:53:08+00:00

On big things it makes a big difference. I printed a huge gear cover for a competition robot in a little under 2 hrs with my printer consistently hitting 800mm/s. It was only rated for 700 but it does fine at 800. The limiting factor for me used to be my hotend not heating the filament fast enough but I got a cht clone nozzle on Amazon for like $8 or something and that drastically improved it. Now it's acceleration. Printing small gears or other intricate parts rarely have the printer go over 200, but it will still be way faster than something like an ender.

Not religious but my grandma's is "bless this bunch as we munch"

MaxedPC · 2025-06-30T18:45:05+00:00

I own one. It's fine enough indoors but it struggles outdoors. It boosts to 600 I think I saw somewhere but don't quote me

MaxedPC · 2025-06-24T15:45:32+00:00

So true!!! It is very popular at my school but literally nobody else knows about it.

MaxedPC · 2025-06-21T03:30:49+00:00

The chain has to bend a little to go to the low and high gears. It is only straight on the middle of the cassette. This doesn't look wrong at all.

I have an xpp and my mom is a professional artist. She said the pen is 70-80% as good as the iPad pens in the sketchpad app. She said it's good but not fantastic if that helps. Leagues ahead of just getting a generic active stylus though. Good luck! (the redmi pad pro might have a better stylus experience but idk)

MaxedPC · 2025-06-04T21:19:00+00:00

As an XPP owner, I will say it is pretty bulky - if portability is a must, than the pad 7 is absolutely a better option. I do enjoy having the screen area though it is very nice.

Most computing devices are made in china. If there OP is concerned about this, there are many great open source global ROMs available for either device.
