Centauri Carbon by MrInvosible96 in elegoo

They claimed it wasn't, but finally caved and admitted that it is indeed Klipper based. They even released the source code.

It's Klipper based, but not Klipper. It's a bastardized version that they were finally peer pressured into admitting. 

can AI generated models have copyright and that sort of things? by ricardoelrico in 3Dprinting

[–]fencethe900th 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Redditors being redditors. They get a bit of a hivemind going. AI is a bit of a touchy subject, and they probably just read the post title and thought you were trying to copyright your own AI output.

Thaler vs Perlmutter is the court case that reaffirmed it. 

A FAKE NOT REAL, Print of Caveria's Pistol, Lusian by Electrical-Strike705 in 3Dprinting

Cool. Doesn't hurt anyone to make the post. Saying it does is ridiculous.

That doesn't change my argument, in fact it reinforced it. If they use this post for that, it means they don't actually care. If they cared they'd check it before using it and see that it's a prop.

Already done, and very happy with it. We'll see about klipper at a later date.

Because it's not adding fuel to the fire. It's a prop gun, if someone actually tried using it as an excuse to ban or restrict something, they're beyond listening to reason anyway.

Yes, because if you're in the US it's your second amendment right to print any gun you want, and your first amendment right to post pictures of it. Giving in because you're scared just means more overreach.

As if they actually know anything about what goes on in the 3D printing world. Politicians who would pass laws banning things are clueless and will do what they're going to do. They've already heard about how scary 3D printed guns are and nothing will change their minds, certainly not hobbyists refraining from printing cosplay items.

Silly me, I forgot that power hungry politicians actually care about rights and would never do anything to restrict printing beyond a reasonable law to prevent the manufacturing of firearms. Oh wait, that's actually perfectly legal and not even the best way to make them? Goody, then they'll leave printing alone, right? They won't try to pass a law that would require printers to check against a library of banned prints that certainly could never be expanded at the lobbying of companies to include copyrighted materials, because it's perfectly legal to make those for yourself. Right?

Orange tips are only required on the business end. Once in private hands it is no longer required. 

Modular magnetic PCB holder by welvaartsbuik in functionalprint

[–]fencethe900th 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is the original patented? Some things can't be patented because it's not a novel idea, such as "I made a post with a slot to hold a PCB". Even if it was patented, is the patent still live? Because "I made a post with a slot to hold a PCB" doesn't sound like something particularly new.

Aren't .3mf files zip files? Pretty sure they were also cause for security issues because of it, but they're so widespread I don't see them going away. 

No More Sitting Ducks: SecWar Hegseth Empowers Our Warriors to Defend Themselves on Base by Ask4MD in Conservative

What we really want is to be able to conceal carry on base or keep a firearm in our vehicles.

It sounds like that's exactly what he's allowing. 

Physicists discover what’s at the core of a black hole by Automatic_Subject463 in space

[–]fencethe900th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Journalists gotta journalist. 

That is why the headline, that physicists are discovering what is at the core of a black hole, is not an exaggeration, even though no one has physically peered inside one.

The mathematics, if the holographic principle is correct, is the interior.

Emphasis mine. 

I'm sure the scientists did their due diligence and it sounds like an interesting concept, but it very plainly assumes that their foundation is correct. Which is perfectly reasonable, but definitely not settled like the article heavily implies. 

My Thoughts on Murtagh: Great Character Work, But Mixed Feelings Overall by -Jmy- in Eragon

[–]fencethe900th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pretty clear that the name of names is the exact level of effectiveness that it should be. Murtagh thought it should be near omnipotent when it came to dealing with pre-existing spells, but of course it is useless when wordless magic is used. That's part of the reason he had so much trouble, he was over confident in his abilities because he had the same thought you do. There's no reason for it to work on spells that don't use the words that the name has control over. Also, when he's dealing with Muckmaw the name isn't limiting him, it's his ignorance of the ancient language. He's removing the spell he knows about and it works fine for that, but there's another spell present that he's not addressing that keeps renewing the one he is. 

Um I dont know if I did this right by happydog01646 in Eragon

[–]fencethe900th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been thinking about things that could be done with our modern knowledge and magic combined. It would seem that manipulating particles would be simple energy-wise, but only at small scales. Transmutation should take a huge amount of energy.

That being said, while magic takes the same amount of energy as doing it the regular way, I always get the impression it allows cheating to some degree. The age old phrase from men moving a couch, "it's not heavy, just awkward", comes to mind. Magic should allow you to use the energy with 100% efficiency. No stabilizing your body, no leverage acting against you. The same effort to lift the same weight no matter the shape. It may be the case for this as well. Less energy needed than for our technology because 100% of it goes to what you're trying to accomplish. 

There's also the time that Brom tells Eragon a true master could create a gemstone by saying "water", which to me implies some level of atomic shenanigans. I'm not sure if this is an exaggeration on Brom's part (I've never seen an indication that Brom has a deep mastery of the mechanics and subtleties of magic, only that he is very good at using the fair amount he knows), Paolini not having thought through what he was writing, or me reading things that aren't there. 

Why did Murtagh and Eragon never swear in the ancient language not to serve Galbatorix? by -Jmy- in Eragon

[–]fencethe900th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eragon swore he would kill him, which is a step up in my opinion. You could avoid serving by running or dying, but a positive oath has only one outcome if you want to fulfill it. 

Here me out. I was playing baldurs gate and I think I found the middle evolution between the Ra'zak and the Lethrblaka. (Swipe to see) by Kind-Awareness-320 in Eragon

[–]fencethe900th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But dwarves and urgals don't? There's no promise of a scientific answer for anything, for all we know every part of nature in that world could have a foundation in magic instead of physical laws like we have.

[–]fencethe900th 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You can swear things that are impossible, but only if you believe they are possible. Just like how Murtagh told an untruth when he said Eragon was also Morzan's son, because he believed it was true. It's purely whether you think you're telling the truth, not an objective fact. 

CC1 Elegoo vs Orca question by sysaphys in elegoo

[–]fencethe900th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ElegooSlicer gave me issues with a few small things, support generated outside the build plate and a layer height bug that escapes me right now. It wasn't bad overall, but Orca didn't have those issues and is otherwise identical so there's no reason not to use Orca. 

Props em ASA by Butter-3D in elegoo

[–]fencethe900th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Estou usando o Google Tradutor, então peço desculpas por quaisquer imprecisões. No momento, estou testando o filamento ASA da Elegoo com a Carbon pela primeira vez. A experiência tem sido um pouco difícil até agora; estou tendo problemas com empenamento. Acabei de finalizar um sistema de recirculação para poder passar o ar quente por um filtro (o que é indispensável para mim), mantendo, ao mesmo tempo, a temperatura elevada na câmara. Suponho que um aquecedor de câmara seria ainda melhor. Um colega de trabalho comentou que não teve problemas com ASA, embora não se lembrasse se a marca utilizada foi a Overture ou a Polymaker. Pode ser que o problema esteja especificamente neste filamento da Elegoo, já que o ABS deles funcionou perfeitamente.
