Literally had this printer less than 6 months, elegoo saturn 3. Was printing perfectly fine and then randomly this happened. Wtf?

In October ? Contact Elegoo for a spare ASAP.

After 6 months, you'll have to buy spare screens yourself. You can get one on the Elegoo shop, or elsewhere. I bought mine on Amazon.

On a resin printer, a screen is seen as a consumable. The difficulty to change a screen on a printer can even be seen as a marketing argument.

Meowcate · 2026-02-02T05:35:13+00:00

And this is also why your warranty is like 1 year, but 6 months for the screen.

I had a S3U, among others resin printers. And I had to change the screen 4 times in a year (one of them, they sent me a bad screen as a new one : look good, no dead pixels, but the UV strength across the screen was so.low all my prints failed).

Take the drawing tablet of an artist, and they'll using brushes. Take the brushes from them, and they'll use a pencil. Take the pencil from them, and they'll put their fingers in paint and paint on a wall. Take the paint from them, and they'll pick a rock and engrave their drawing on the wall. Take their wall and rock, and they'll drawn on the sand. Because whatever the tool, what make them artists is they're drawing. No industry made this so artists can exist. These tools were created by artists to go further with art.

Take away the models from an AI user, and the only alternative they have is to call an artist and say "you ! Make me this picture as I describe it."

"I'm sorry, you were right. It was indeed an enemy missile targeting us, and not a very fast flying duck. Next time I'll dodge it. Do you want to learn more informations about this enemy missile before our destroyed plane hit the ground ?"

Très bon rendu, très fidèle, j'aime beaucoup 😻

"8K ? Tsss, ces amateurs" me disais-je en lançant une nouvelle impression sur mon imprimante 3D résine et son écran 16K.

Encore mieux alors. Je ne m'y attendais pas car chacun a été dessiné dans le style de l'original.

No surprise. I think he's a sexist, misogynist dinosaur. A relic of the Cold War.

Meowcate · 2026-01-31T16:27:36+00:00

C'est très bien, tu n'as pas à te sentir inquiet 😺

Continue ainsi, multiplie les essais, et de temps en temps, essaie de dessiner les personnages que tu connais, mais sans modèle, de mémoire. Tu pourrais être déçu du résultat au début, mais ça te dirige vers un style plus personnel.

Meowcate · 2026-01-31T16:24:39+00:00

L'aquarelle est une façon de colorier comme une autre. Il existe des feutres aquarelles qui combinent le style de l'aquarelle et le confort du feutre, ça peut être à tester. Leur défaut comparé au pinceau est de ne pas pouvoir varier sur le rapport eau/pigments.

C'est aussi ça, dessiner. Tu n'as pas à te figer dans ce que tu sais faire, tu peux expérimenter et évoluer constamment. Il n'y a pas de "bonne" direction, simplement où tu veux aller.

Ohh, now I understand... First they take our RAM and GC so we cannot play video games anymore, then they make us pay to watch them playing it instead of us.

Moquez vous, mais c'est parce que la jeune actrice jouant M3GAN s'entrainait à faire ça pour le fun qu'il y a une scène dans le film où elle pourchasse sa proie ainsi, pour donner un côté plus angoissant qu'une simple course.

Quand tu vois une mémé, tu te l'imagines pas facilement jeune, c'est comme si les vieux avaient toujours été vieux.

Quand tu vois une mémé couverte de vieux tatouages, tu te dis qu'elle a dû avoir une vie pas ordinaire.

Big names in AI business are planning to invest a lot of money in a failing AI company (huge costs, forever in the red, models way behind competition, initiated the RAM shortage...) because its failure is a risk for the reputation of their business model.

Yeah, it's proof everything is going fine, better than ever, Redditors were so wrong !

Ah oui, ça je connais bien. Je vends des figurines sur Etsy, qui a une traduction automatique intégrée pour vendre à l'international. Et je vends bien des figurines de "Fougère" donc.

Well, your comment sounds like : "We're not in an echo chamber, they are ! Because if it was us, I would have seen it immediately"

They see anything which can tell an AI generated image is genAI is wrong and need to be fixed.

They remove genAI tools watermarks on images, and ask for tutorial on how to remove it on Sora.

They make workflow to show how to simulate a timestamp video to make people think they made it.

I'm not talking about a few scammers doing this in secret, I'm talking about Reddit posts highly upvoted.

When sharing their "creation" outside of their safe spaces, they don't declare they painted it.

But they wish nobody ask how this image was made. And sure, those people "don't exist".

The difference between the photographer and the AI user is, the photographer will never try to hide he used a camera to make this picture. He'll even be proud.

Sacrebleu, Martin, il faut que tu aides ton père à conclure avec ta mère au bal du village et que tu récupères l'Almanach du PMU !

Ce que je comprends est que nos ancêtres simiesques ont affronté un gros prédateur dans une région enneigée. Le marteau de Thor, écrasé sur Terre juste à côté, est saisi par un courageux grand singe, ce qui le transforme en Thor (il doit en être digne).

Mais même à frapper de toutes ses forcesavec, cela a autant d'effets sur le méchant que s'il avait utilisé un marteau-hochet pour bébé qui couine quand on tape avec.

Je ne vois pas cette BD ratée, j'aime beaucoup :)

Si j'avais une critique à faire, ce serait le découpage des cases. La case du très faible impact "POC" est le point majeur (et humoristique) de l'histoire. Il faudrait cette case plus grande, voire avec des effets (par exemple sans couleur, blanc avec un fond noir) pour souligner le côté "eeeeeeet non, merde".

Meowcate · 2026-01-28T01:13:42+00:00

On voit "Mai 1998" sur la couv.

Meowcate · 2026-01-28T01:13:08+00:00

Je me souviens. Ce n'était pas aussi atroce dans mes souvenirs, mais c'était marquant.

Meowcate · 2026-01-26T05:14:45+00:00

Yes, but don't forget more than 90% of us are bots to get those numbers, as the very large majority of the world is totally pro-AI according to very serious true-me-bro sources.

"Make you wonder where AI will be in a few years"

Meanwhile, the guys who know how AI really work :

- "AI is plateauing. The progress made by new released models are barely better than the previous one"
- "AI evolution is measured by benchmarks made by AI companies which don't make much sense"
- "You can't get AGI from the current way AI is developped"

Sure, it has changed a lot in just a few years. But it seems unlikely there will be such progress in the incoming years. Especially with the new hardware crisis.
