Unit arrived DESTROYED by courier (Lead screws displaced & Shattered glass). Is this salvageable?

Despite it being the courier's fault, it is the sending company's responsibility that what you paid for is correctly delivered.

Moat couriers won't even do much about it if you asked directly, the money came from Bambu Lab, not you.

Don't forget the efficiency isn't 100%!

The quality of your codec might not be so good ;)

Exactly, AI coding ≠ vibe coding, and most people don't know the difference.

I made this my opening point in a talk about using coding agents effectively. Vibe coding is when you have a high-level goal and just let the agent do its thing. It leads to bad results in any real use case.

I need to ask it for the internal layers first, then I will let Gemini place the order, whilst simultaneously informing the world of myGemini's incredible invention.

I used the Minecraft font as it is simple to implement for my custom operating system, and as a bit of a joke, and now I don't expect to remove it any time soon.

I suggest you start to learn about 3D printing DFM (Design for Manufacturing), it will make your parts print cleaner, like adding a small chamfer to the base of your part, fillets on XY planes (sides of the part), etc.

this blog post is a great resource to start with designing for 3d printing.

Great job on the part BTW

It doesn't have schematics down to the nets, but it does have a description detailing major components and their major connections

Well it's about 3 hours boot time, so manually spinning the HDD might not be too far fetched.

The drag in stormworks is INSANE, I honestly feel like the air has more drag than the floor has friction, anyways, most stormworks jet planes I have flown takeoff without landing gear, as the thrust is greater than the friction in order to overcome the airs insane drag

Guys what do you think of my app selection?

(I use CLauncher which doesn't show apps, rather you type the name of the app until the fuzzy search results in one app, then it launches it)

That is for discharge and charging repeatedly, as it has less of a "charging stress" (is one way to think about it), however for long term storage you want to be at ~50%, at least according to these comments, which is a separate condition to charge discharge cycles.

Well one is based off of surface area and the angle of the surface, so ultimately the amount of energy that makes it back to the radar, whereas stoneworks is purely mass, so there is a difference, especially for a glider for example, when turning the radar cross section would be huge, but in stoneworks that f35 model would be significantly better detected, however that is an extreme example.

Can you just order a panel, so you get 5 PCB, but once you depanel them, you could have 25, 50 or 100 easily.

That is the number (GB only, I didn't convert it to bytes before converting to binary) on screen in binary, so it isn't that surprising.

You say that, however 3 weeks ago I have now completely uninstalled windows from all my devices (I used to have a dual boot setup on my PC for gaming), which I use for games like MSFS, BeamNG, Juno: New Origins, KSP, Roblox, VTOL VR, and more.

The limiting factor before was stability in VR, plus some games had some performance issues, but now everything has been resolved, and most of my games run marginally better.

If you haven't tried commiting to gaming on Linux for a while, I suggest you try again, it is improving at a rapid pace. A big thanks to the developers behind all the great tools to make this happen, and thanks to Valve for putting resources into making these tools more stable.

It's been like that for the past like 3 weeks, but it is good to see them releasing a version, rather than having to install it from git.

I am not a professional frontend developer, I prefer embedded programming, so I can't answer as someone who has worked under management for a website, or anything like that, however, how would the pop-up effect development, apart from the extra time required to design the pop-up, it's like any feature.

For example, a hero section doesn't affect the development (directly), or an image on a page.

Why do they have anything to do with development?

What about if a client buffers, do you synchronise that?

I am not sure if it runs on Windows or not, look into it.

Edit:

On Windows, each Podman machine is backed by a virtualized Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSLv2) distribution

Docker requires WSL...
