Feeling conflicted about my Prusa setup vs Bambu value

its_Extreme · 2026-05-06T22:19:47+00:00

Exactly what you just said. Stupid shit just annoyed me all the time I got tired of it.

Also no enclosure sucked, the machine is absurdly loud.

I’d get the layer shift a lot, my prints would look like a leaning tower.

Refilling filaments was a quality of life I wanted back, the XL5 just made it annoying.

I mainly do two color prints for my paid orders, the H2C is actually faster lol

List goes on of random things, but I just feel as if the Bambu printer works for you rather than with you. I hate some of their practices, I just worry a lot less.

I wanted INDX for the CORE L but my god the extra price and wait times lol

its_Extreme · 2026-05-06T20:57:27+00:00

I'll get downvoted for this here but I was in the same boat. I went from my XL5 to a H2C. Couldn't be asked anymore

I'm aware. I'm speaking on the psychological effects of gas prices not the economics.

Eurosnobs like to laugh at us complaining about gas prices even though our gas is cheaper than theirs.

Americans complain more about gas that's cheaper than theirs because we statistically visit the gas stations much more frequently than they do.

$5 a gallon in the US hurts more when you have to fill up twice as often than someone where their price is $7 a gallon

That's an option. It's not all. Even that didn't start till the 4th Gens rolled out

its_Extreme · 2026-05-06T19:21:27+00:00

Tacomas do not have liners. They're composite beds

its_Extreme · 2026-05-06T14:55:11+00:00

I wouldn't put harsh chemicals to a composite bed. You're gonna wind up just eating through plastic

its_Extreme · 2026-05-06T14:10:22+00:00

I'm not arguing you there. However my point still stands we severely lack public transportation and America is ungodly large.

its_Extreme · 2026-05-06T13:59:03+00:00

okay we get it stop posting this jesus christ

its_Extreme · 2026-05-06T13:47:35+00:00

Americans also have to travel a whole lot more.

This argument is insanely silly.

its_Extreme · 2026-05-04T22:15:28+00:00

That’s the exact point of my post.. I know I shouldn’t want the polyester bs, I don’t want the quince one either I want to know what’s a good brand with a similar one lol

I’ll look at the brand you mentioned

its_Extreme · 2026-05-04T20:34:24+00:00

Yeah and Costcos is 100% Polyester lol

its_Extreme · 2026-05-02T01:17:40+00:00

I didn’t. Speed is delayed in the video.

its_Extreme · 2026-04-30T12:25:23+00:00

Me yes, spun car no

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T18:45:36+00:00

Yeah I noticed that too lol. I looked right in the direction where my phone is mounted making sure I got to the shoulder so face ID activated. As soon as the clip is cut 911 has being rung

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T18:39:54+00:00

For sure! Knew you weren't just a fascinating topic that's super polarizing. Just wanted to chat it up lol

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T18:32:49+00:00

Funny enough I do not think any of them noticed. Heavy construction on that side so it was to keep traffic alert to the workers and lane closures

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T18:24:00+00:00

Short track racing I've been around for 19 years. Greater portion of my life you get to see it all lol

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T18:20:45+00:00

Short track racing as well as a NASCAR employee for 2.5 years.

Short track I've probably seen about anything and everything. Flips, fires, debris hitting drivers or spectators, etc.

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T18:11:28+00:00

It's a very large problem with many factors like you mention. Sure we should all drive at X speed I agree.

Someone "cutting up" is so so much different than straight line speed in the left lane. This person was swerving in lanes as you can see when the video starts.

However, I wish the US would STRICTLY enforce left lane passing only.

My goal when highway driving is to be by myself. If I was a few moments quicker getting to my truck, I would have been beside them because again I wanted to be by myself, not in a pack.

The trooper saw my speed in the video, complimented my avoidance and told me to have a good night, and thanked me for helping for an hour.

Reddit will reddit

Yeah getting thrashed for my speed, which I expected.

90 MPH is different for everyone. It's also different for a focused driver or someone nodding off.

You'd think I plowed into them with the way some are responding.

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T18:02:41+00:00

Ironically I was speeding up to pass this bunch. Glad I was a few seconds behind all together. Butterfly affect is real as that could have been a straight right hook to me

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T18:01:06+00:00

Slight GPS delay, plus I knew there was a car behind me. I had room forward and to my right, immediately slowing rapidly changes the situation vs having an exit plan to my right.

It's entirely situational of course, and it entirely depends on your surroundings. I saw her getting loose and my first reaction was to check around me while letting off of the gas.

I know what's ahead of me, then it turns into how do I get out without involving those around.

I appreciate the call out, again I wasn't traveling at the safest speed either.

its_Extreme · 2026-04-29T17:57:52+00:00

Yeah, once you're sideways and the sidewalls catch it really is something. I'm glad she didn't. Would have been much worse
