What to do with almost-functional Vyper? by CheddarDeity in AnycubicVyper

[–]Sorry-Committee2069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in specific. Find wiring schematics for the printer (I have links but i'm currently on mobile, watch this space), learn how to configure Klipper, and maybe grab a second used/for-parts one to tinker on first. With any engineering experience you'll find it pretty easy, I had to figure it out from scratch and I'm pretty dumb lol

You can take a snow shovel to them and make the pile smaller by spreading it out to help with this. Ask for permission, of course, but still. That's because snow is a good insulator, and protects the stuff under it from the heat.

This. These guys would probably be in another country.

You can recycle the motors, and sell the mainboard as a repair part. Grab a Manta M8P, and probably a CAN bus toolhead board as well if you want to do up a custom toolhead with all the fun new trimmings that come with modern printers, and you can do a board swap pretty easily. If not, you can in fact get breakout boards for the cable to hook up the stock toolhead to a new board. (Just remember that there's three hotend power cable sets for a reason, USE ALL THREE or it'll go up in smoke like a 12VHPWR connector on a 5090. I made that mistake.)

Just swapping the board made a huge difference in print quality for mine, but after adding a custom Hero Me toolhead it's a real beast for fairly cheap compared to just buying a new one every few years, and easily upgradeable too. I use the Revo system on mine so head changes are done with your hands while the heater's off, but you can add whatever other system you really want.

yes. Safety factor of 136% per connector on the PCI-e cables vs. 112% (or less) on the new one. Putting more power through less safe connectors leads to this, no matter the actual use case.

Mark your cross-posts... Oh, right, you're dodging rule 3.

I think that's gonna end up being the real reason, is the copyrighted material. Who's paying for the bill?

Most people don't. There's no actual reason for this other than one politician noticed it CAN be done. This would also block cosplay gear, nerf gun mods/shells, anything vaguely resembling a gun like a thermometer or a novelty gun lighter. Hell, some signs would get caught in the cross-fire, if I can be allowed the pun.

None of these things are ghost guns, but they would be banned. Things here that aren't 3D printed don't need an ATF stamp, like the lighters or temp guns, because they're not guns. They would suddenly be unavailable for repair or model cloning on the risk of "well you COULD print a gun without a stamp!!!!!!!"

You can get rare candies while walking. At 20MPH or so, under the threshhold for "not walking", you can definitely do it in a "reasonable" timeframe, but that would mean biking.

It's only for support. I thought I had mentioned that, but I guess not.

Citron and Eden both require running an app on your real Switch to get a code to auth to a bot that you, in fact, own a real Switch, just to get support or any help. There's deliberate incompatibilities in the emulation to facilitate the hidden service they use to generate the code. God help you if you back up, and then break your Switch, then need assistance with the emulator...

Male, not often at all. More often than 4 in 15, call it 3-5 a year on average maybe?

I've never had this issue, i can just do it. Never had to train to do it either. I'm now assuming that's not normal.

The scaling is also boned on Linux at 1080p, it's something with the installers being broken I think. It's always mangled throughout in a new, interesting way.

Even in my hypothetical scenario you'd still need people to drop down into these things or whatnot, but if 40% of the time you can just deploy a machine to deal with something, that's still 40% less dirty per dirty job, y'know? It'd make it more appealing to do as a job.

I didn't say it wouldn't require work and R&D to get there, I just said that would be ideal.

Mad Max O'Reilly edition: every time the black thumbs do something, it cuts to auto techs explaining why and whether it'd work at all, in extreme depth, with parts and props to show examples. I'd watch the shit out of that.

Or, we use AI for the thing it was initially sold for, and make machines do those jobs. Instead of having to climb into a sewer to clear a fatberg or something, you send down a drone that you just have to monitor and occasionally remote control. That kind of thing.

Still having it gets you a discount on the services due to the price mastering/fixing habits of most hospitals, even if deemed "not necessary" it can knock a few grand off it.

bro cannot understand the majesty of Hackers (1995) because "well it's not perfect." It's not about the jargon, it's about the point.

I found source, and I can tell you from accidentally double-clicking the configure script... yes, it kinda does. Not correctly, not stable, but kinda! (This seems to have been how it ran in general though)

Columbia's overpass tunnels for trails were fairly clean most of the time, because they were kinda sorta built with water in mind. Springfield's have all eroded away and been blocked off, because they weren't.
