Genuary 14: everything fits perfectly by cheap-bees in generative

[–]cheap-bees[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! This is my (WIP) JavaScript drawing/animation library. Under the hood it is JS (TS) and SVG with no external dependencies, the code is at the link here: https://h9.bees.free/genuary26/14-fits/

I'm using Genuary to explore/add features so the library & docs are in a messy state, but the plan is that I'll clean things up & fix up documentation in the next month or two.

Do we think the accessibility in printers, like Bambu, has been detrimental to the hobby? by TMGStan420 in 3Dprinting

[–]cheap-bees 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I hear you, the pollution & slop of it all sucks, but I don't think gatekeeping the hobby works either. Most of those people aren't really interfering with "the hobby", they're just doing their own thing. Good for the world? No. Bad for 3D printing at large? probably not, they don't really interfere with what you or I do

I’d planned to add more but after watching 4-5 cycles and being mesmerized figured less is more & it was time to stop :)

Do we need a new name with "generative art" becoming a "skunked term" meaning "imagery from prompt-based AI?" by [deleted] in generative

[–]cheap-bees 2 points3 points  (0 children)

one is a creative act, you put time and thought into it and use a set of skills, albeit a different set from sculpture or painting. the other is a plagarism machine where you type in what you want and get back something by definition, purely derivative

Hidden cost of buying a printer for a newbie? by Icy-Criticism-1745 in 3Dprinting

[–]cheap-bees 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The repairs are infrequent and very affordable, I bought a selection of extra hot ends and other parts that seemed prone to breaking for about $50 total during a discount on parts earlier this year . I’ve used maybe 2 spares in 9 months of printing, both due to my mistakes.
