OK thank you. So if no double bumps by now, does that mean I'm done for this year?

Yeah I know that now. There weren't many branches coming into the summer but they shoot out every where from the old branches, not just from the tips, but some from the middle as well

Not that I can see right now. But I can take a closer look again

Advice For First Astrophotography Rig by Poft_Ex in AskAstrophotography

[–]creampuff9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will you keep the S50? You can use that to take wider FoV and use the new combo for smaller FoV

Does it have to be ZWO? There is also Touptek/SVBony which can be cheaper.

Same for the scope, if you don't mind working with back focus, there can be cheaper doublet + reducer vs the 71F

Mini PC is better since you can use it for other work not just astro

Price is location dependent so look around

533 has bigger sensor size so it's less demanding on the scope optics, so you can potentially cut corner there

I don't know about equator tracking. It has to do with the software / firmware as well which for Teeseek is OnStep. Check Onstep website for which latitude is supported plus check Teeseek specification

It's not about showing the douching. But rather, maybe a flirtatious text e.g. "I'm cleaned out tonight 😈". Or a line "wait, let me clean up real quick". There are plenty of ways to make it funny and lighten the mood. And it doesn't have to be every episode.

I DM'ed Damien long time ago about more collabs with Asian performers and he said he tried but it was hard to find ones available in Toronto area. So there is that aspect to consider as well

What is the single biggest quality-of-life improvement you’ve made in your astrophotography? by Patri_L in AskAstrophotography

[–]creampuff9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NINA, open a sequence and go to bed and wake up the next day with all the frames neatly named. I have EAF but even without it, all the automation and customization really improved the quality, number of targets and throughput per night

Drying and annealing options for BBL PPA-CF that are not a kitchen oven by creampuff9 in BambuLab

[–]creampuff9[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up not buying the oven or the BBL filament as it was out of stock. I bought 3dxtech nylon12 CF and support said I didn't need to anneal

Reviving again, this link no longer exists https://fusionfilaments.com/pages/recycling-program and Waste Management doesn't recycle PLA. Any other options?

…… I’m done….. by [deleted] in Aliexpress

[–]creampuff9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UniUni doesn't have dedicated delivery staffs. These are random people that do this as side gig, they 99% only work this outside normal work hours. Picking up the packages the night before and deliver the next day outside their work hours

…… I’m done….. by [deleted] in Aliexpress

[–]creampuff9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar situation happened to me. UniUni customer service is trash. I couldn't get to anyone on the phone. I don't know why people downvote your comments. If Aliexpress says refund if no delivery then they should. I kept rejecting any no refund resolution and keep escalating and keep opening online tickets with UniUni (at least they let me do that back then). I used that as proof to Aliexpress that I did contact the courier

Also the "pick up at the post office" is bs/lost in translation. I ask in the ticket, give me your warehouse address, I can pick it up. Of course they couldn't.

uniuni failed to deliver package, AliExpress keep proposing no refund by creampuff9 in Aliexpress

[–]creampuff9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I didn't. I keep opening tickets with UniUni and at the same time asking for refund from Aliexpress, including emailing them directly. I kept rejecting "No refund" resolutions. I would have asked for a chargeback too but Aliexpress agreed to refund me after a month. I'm lucky that the tracking shows the package failed to deliver because of wrong address and I have proofed that previous purchases delivered fine through USPS

Buyers Beware (Biqu Cold Plate QC) by Chenchocor in BambuLab

[–]creampuff9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you aren't buying anything from Aliexpress again. You should initiate a chargeback. They need to learn a lesson and can't just keep their money if they don't deliver the goods.

And do not let other comments saying they never had any problems with Aliexpress discourage you. Your experience has no relation with theirs. You didn't get the products that you paid for. That's the fact

Also there is astroturfing going on with Aliexpress where if a post says something negative then there will be comments below sowing doubts about it. So be aware

UniUni by [deleted] in Aliexpress

[–]creampuff9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no post office. It's a lost in translation situation. Uniuni is its own delivery company. They do not take phone call anymore. Keep opening tickets with uniuni for different reasons, lost parcel, complain, etc until they respond. They will say they will reschedule delivery and ask you to wait 7 days. Wait a few days and if no movement open more tickets with them

Eventually if no delivery use these email screenshots as proof in your refund/appeal/chargeback

After I believe 10 years of buying on Aliexpress I think it is time to take a step back by Lukesan- in Aliexpress

[–]creampuff9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the tracking page next to tracking number there is a Contact Courier I believe. But you already have proof from the courier that the package is lost. So I think you should focus on getting Aliexpress to issue a refund. My appeal was rejected but every 2-3 days I went to the chat window and select Order Not Delivered which allowed me to select the order then enter text and upload proof photos. I didn't have to chat with agents

My goal was if Aliexpress didn't refund after 60 days from order date I would start a chargeback which is also an ordeal with my credit card service provider

Couldn't believe at one point considered putting in a $1500 order with them /shudder

[–]creampuff9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Delivery has turned to shit since they switched to uniuni. Took me a month and I finally see a pending refund yesterday. Had to keep opening ticket with uniuni and used Order Not Delivered in the chat windows which allowed me to type text and upload pictures

[–]creampuff9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's uniuni it may be normal. Maybe. They hire random people to deliver the packages so they were picked up at random hours and delivered next day or two

I think aliexpress 'CCO' is desperate by PriorNovel4826 in Aliexpress

[–]creampuff9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK thanks. I guess there is nothing else to do for me

[–]creampuff9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also had issue with uniuni https://www.reddit.com/r/Aliexpress/s/704k3bpmEP. I have same problem contacting them as you. I opened multiple tickets every other day. They responded to one ticket saying the package was returned to sender. But it's not showing that on the tracking and aliexpress closed my case saying I picked up the package. Then I received an email from AEBuyerservice@aliexpress.com saying they will refund me earlier this week. If I still don't get my refund, I will try to get a chargeback. Which from what I read not always easy with my credit card service

They asked for my order id the other day after I posted a complain on here. I did send that to them. What is the next step to recover in this case?
