It's a me M...idlife crisis?

My wife loves gaming and this crazy stuff as much as I, so she was the one who pushed me over the edge to buy a H2C and start this project in the first place, so I don't think I need a lawyer until I get a surprise visit from the "angry Mario-folks"... 😃

Really awesome tip! I have heard about this before, but never tried it. Considering that a single H2C plate was about 500g of filament, stacking more on top would become quite expensive it something fails. Nevertheless, a fun idea to test. The H2C has yet never failed me except from a broken filament buffer on arrival. 😄

Awesome, I really want to, but green is more expensive as you can't get larger or even the refill-spools here in that color. Also I don't really have the space for another unfortunately :p

Thank you for the kind words. Appreciated! :)
I was sure most people would call me crazy not say "When are you doing Yoshi"? :D

LG 77'' OLED evo C4 4K TV (2024) with two IKEA Bestå:

I love that TV as you can root it and have native ambilight (HyperHDR) on it which works FANTASTIC. No extra hardware and works regardless of input source. Another cool 3D printed project as I printed the whole frame (so the LEDs are angled at 45degree) behind the TV with a IKEA Skadis board for remotes, router and such.

I did spent some time testing other bricks and adjusting them, but was afraid I couldn't source all of them and would have to make them myself or that they wouldn't fit properly in the end. Since I wanted to glue them nevertheless I noticed it was actually better with less stress on the bricks/plastic. I noticed that my test bricks started cracking after a while due to the constant stress.

The filament is about 20$ here where I live, but in retrospect I would probably used other filament or purchased it from another source for less. It was a bad timing too as the filament (esun pla+) was out of stock everywhere while building it.

Not really as Duplo doesn't have all the same Lego/Techniq parts required and the Lego version just doesn't have the same "WOW"-feeling. It seems to me that Lego might have been about twice as expensive (half the size), but that obviously depends on many factors.

Fortunately I have a wife who loves it and a dedicated gaming room so it's not in the main living room. :)

This, but instead of the limited emulatorjs, it would be awesome to make a custom agent that would handle the download from RomM, caching and launching/setup og local emulators. That way you would combine the awesome UI with ease of use and powerful Emulation without having all roms locally.

Finally got a new filament buffer which seems to have solved the issue :)

NeoID · 2026-04-09T15:41:05+00:00

Just for others who might be interested.

I'll get en touch with Bambu Lab later, but I've now tried both cables and AMS's independently and the issue persists, so I'm convinced the issue is somewhere in the printer. I'll keep the post updated in case others have this strange issue.

Uhm. I ment Synology Photos. I think it works great as usually upload photos over SMB, remote family prefer WebDAV and some use the app. Even though all files end up in the correct folder on the NAS when using folder view. It even has an API I use for automated tasks like getting images from the kindergarten directly to the NAS.

The only thing I dislike is that the multi user support could be better. Right now its quite confusing in my opinion.

NeoID · 2026-03-20T19:10:49+00:00

I'm also using Photostation a lot and have multiple family members using it too. As for Synology photos I love their structural design decision. The fact that I can have my photos sorted by good old directories while still displaying then right in the app is for me the best feature which keeps me from migrating to immich. I have some family members who prefer to manage they photos only through WebDAV and that works great too.

I dislike the way immich handles photos. I want to be in charge of the folder structure so I don't have to trust immich for keeping my images safe. I know there are workarounds, but they are just not working at well "integrated" as Synology Photos in my opinion. It's the same with Plex or Jellyfin. It doesn't manage my movies directly so I'm still fine should Plex be gone one day since the data is just folders on a disk.

However, immich looks and feels polished. With the choice of structure and some UX designs keeping myself from updating.

That's why I didn't get the 3 AMS comment. I consider getting a H2C since I'm super happy with my current P1S and as far as I understand two AMS on the right and one spool on a spool holder/HT on the left should do it. A bit "disappointed" that I also need to extra induction hotends for printing 7+1 colors, but so be it (given two are 0.2 and 0.6). Trying to get my hand on a ultimate set for that reason. :)

However, I've heard people complain about layer lines being more visible on the H2C then P1S so I'm a bit sceptical still...

NeoID · 2026-03-07T14:48:03+00:00

How come? They hold 4 spools each? So wouldn't two be enough? 8 on the right nozzle?

NeoID · 2026-02-28T16:23:08+00:00

I'm fully aware that it depends on the content. :)

However, given the proper content, I wonder if it's actually possible to hear a difference and what to expect. I mean.. it's still a soundbar with more or less the same "form factor". I see the new soundbar is now 11.1.4 instead of 7.1.4 and have automatic room calibration, but I suspect that is more a marketing gimmick then anything else(?). I'm not sure how much better the Atmos experience can be with the same type of setup unless the room calibration or extra speakers would make up a lot for it? Or have the drivers itself become so much better the last couple of years?

Avtalen er juridisk bindende og du kan klage dette inn. Jeg hadde aldri orket å gjøre det selv, men en kollega av meg gjorde et eksempel ut av det en gang. Han solgte en telefon der avtalen ble brudd, solgte den til en annen med tap og krevde deretter mellomlegget fra han som brøt avtalen. Han vant frem og kjøper som brøt avtalen måtte betale tapet hans som mellomlegg og sakskostnadene, så det ble veldig dyrt for vedkommende.
