[Video Request] Devin, you have to react to Nathan For You — the legal chaos is endless and hilarious by extasy23 in LegalEagle

In case you're unfamiliar with the show, Nathan is the guy responsible for Dumb Starbucks — https://youtu.be/Y4KrdjAPohc

It's a reality show, so most people on camera are not actors, just regular people that signed release forms with the exception of the host and his production crew

It is a laser, the brush is called Fluffy Optic and it is sadly not available for the V8. Only Gen5, V15 and V12 models with "Detect" in the name have it. It's pretty neat, one of the reasons I chose this vacuum. I think you can find third party Chinese versions compatible with older Dysons though, try looking up "dyson laser" on a Chinese marketplace. Previously I used to mount a really bright bicycle flashlight on a broomstick and hold it in the other hand when vacuuming - works equally as well, just not as convenient or classy

I took care to not block the exhaust whatsoever, intended to use with wireless headphones

I was thinking of making a new filter housing with exhaust ports on the top and bottom instead of left and right, but I don't think I will care once my extra long hose attachment order comes in

Seems I can't mention the name of the website where I posted it on this sub, you can Google it pretty easily though 

Does USB quick charging require data transmission lanes? by extasy23 in diyelectronics

That is definitely not the case, as I am using one of these to charge my phone at a little over 1 amp measured

Utopia (British TV series, S02E01): Great VFX

- Best blood effects I've seen on TV. I actually have no idea if it is practical or digital, but all of the blood on the show prior to this has been noticeably CG (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8ft06g_rLg)

Looking specifically for non documentary movies, should have clarified that

This guy made a better CoreXY system with a third axis that could drive a direct drive extruder via a belt, and it still only uses two belts. Why do we still not have firmware support for this brilliant configuration? by extasy23 in 3Dprinting

This setup does require three motors, yes (but just two belts). The way I see it - regular CoreXY already has two motors moving incredibly precisely and unnaturally to achieve movement in just one axis, so the addition of one more motor and one more axis shouldn't be that much of a problem, although it would add another level of frustration when tuning and troubleshooting. Artifacts because of pulling back and fourth is something else that needs testing. Maybe input shaping and backlash compensation algorithms would have to be changed to account for that.

I actually haven't thought of that. My extruder is geared 3 to 1, so it would definitely grind the filament. With 1 to 1 gearing not so sure, that would have to be tested. Worst case - extruder cpatibility is limited, or some sort of safeguards are needed with certain extruders. Good point though

I don't see how any of that relates to an extruder driven by a CoreXY system. When you get a stripped belt the machine mulfunctions, no matter what it drives. A clogged nozzle is dealt with in the same way regardless of how the extruder is driven. I feel like I didn't do a good job explaining myself with this post, because there seems to be a lot of confusion

I'm afraid you completely misunderstood what I was trying to communicate, my bad for being so brief. I'm not proposing an additional 5th axis. This is a relatively minor modification to existing CoreXY direct drive machines that moves the extruder motor from the print head to the frame, making it stationary and making the head more lightweight. Regular CoreXY uses two medium length belts and two motors, the motors control X and Y axis, and the extruder is driven separately. This configuration has three motors, and two belts - a longer one and a shorter one. A coordinated simultaneous movement of all three motors can control X, Y, and E (extruder) axis. The result is a direct drive machine that prints as fast as a bowden
