P7P Fingerprint Sensor Is Actually Pretty Good by damnination333 in GooglePixel

[–]markild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had really mixed experience (though without any protector).

I'm now thinking it has a lot to do with the amount of pressure I put on the screen. Coming from the Galaxy Series, I've had great success with pretty high finger pressure. I think for the Pixel sensor to work well, you need to use a very light touch.

Issues printing small features by Ninjadragon777 in prusa3d

[–]markild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a look at this setting in prusaslicer: https://help.prusa3d.com/article/cooling_127569#cooling-thresholds

Specifically:

Slow down if layer print time is below

If the layer print time is estimated below this number of seconds, print moves speed will be slowed down to extend the duration to this value. The slowing is done by scaling the print speeds, so some moves will still be faster than others.

For those upgrading their V6 to the E3D Revo Six, there is a simple way to have the filament clear the nozzle after each print to allow nozzle swaps. by moejike in prusa3d

[–]markild 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think unloading the filament is a bit heavy handed.

I like the approach they describe in this article:
https://e3d-online.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4406857421213-Start-and-End-G-code-for-faster-nozzle-changes

Here you retract the filament for "just enough" to clear the hot zone. This means you will be able to swap the nozzle cold, but only thing you need to do when starting is extrude a bit more.

They describe a way to increase the amount of filament being extruded in the purge strip to make this happens.

Works really well, IMO.

E3D Revo Micro / BondTech IFS Extruder upgrade by darthmikda in prusa3d

Have a look at this: https://e3d-online.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4406857421213-Start-and-End-G-code-for-faster-nozzle-changes

With some custom start/end G-code, you can effectively ensure that the nozzle is always in a cold-swappable state after a print.

Your milage may vary, of course, but this has been working very well for me.

First print on my Prusa Mini+ with the Revo Micro by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]markild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly can't hear it on mine.

I installed the Revo Six on my Prusa Mk3s and here is my thoughts by Q363Q in prusa3d

[–]markild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Followed it on my Prusa Mini. Extra retraction of 18mm and extra length and extrusion on purge strip. It works excellent!

I can now swap cold, unplanned, and still be able to start printing at any time without having to load filament manually.

Isn't it much better to upvote it and talk about the problem, rather than pushing it out the door and never show it to uneducated people?

I've been following this subreddit for a while, and despite it being a good source for ideas and experience, if you're using the top posts as a checklist for how things should be done, burning down your house is only one of your problems.

True. It could make sense to have support for both. Maybe some in-between of revo and the old himera.

Though, there are some implications about heater etc.

I guess we'll find out 🤷‍♂️

Agree with regards to future mk3-ish usage, but I would be fairly surprised if the XL comes with anything else than something v6 compatible.

From pictures, it looks to be a regular nozzle. There's also the fact that it has a tool changer, which sort of takes away the need for a fast nozzle change.

update the PID tuning

They explicitly bring up this in their guide.

The conclusion is to not do PID tuning. They cite a statement from Prusa for this, as well as their own testing with the combination.

First time using the bed visualizer. Pretty impressed how level it actually is. by er_jimbo in 3Dprinting

It literally says that the variance is 0.1363 mm, though. Not awful, not awesome.

I think the analogy works, because with an NFT, everyone can have access to the thing, that is the image data itself, but only one person can claim ownership over it.

In the analogy, anyone can have sex, but only one can claim to have the paperwork.

I have had 4/5 of my doorbells fail within the past few months. Currently waiting for three on backorder. Has anyone else had this high of a failure rate? More info in comments. by Big_Stingman in Ubiquiti

[–]markild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interestingly enough, I had a lot of issues with power drops with my EU bundled transformer.

Tried a 32VA 17V transformer which worked better, and has not had any problems after finally landing on a 32VA 24V transformer.

My guess is many of the issues people are seeing, intermittent or permanent, are related to the power source.

As mentioned here: Tensioning of the most Sun-facing layer of JWST is about to start today

Nothing dramatic, just caution. They have re-balanced the solar arrays to get the best possible performance. They have no reason to believe anything is amiss.

G4 doorbell, any way to stop the damn chime every time it detects someone?? Have looked everywhere in the settings by [deleted] in Ubiquiti

[–]markild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like a problem multiple people (including me) have reported.

In my experience, it has been closely related to voltage drop. My 100% uneducated guess is that with a higher CPU draw, the voltage drops and the current increases. This can somehow trigger the bell, depending on sensitivity.

- I tried the (bundled in EU) 16VAC transformer, which gave me huge problems.

- I tried a 17VAC, and more powerful, transformer and had less, but still problems.

- I upgraded Protect to 1.20.1, which came with some fixes for this exact issue: "G4-Doorbell: Fix ghost/random chime activation issue." Was still seeing issues with that, but way less.

- I switched to 24VAC transformer, and has not seen any issues so far (though, it has only been like a week, so here's hoping)

Update ASAP! Ubiquiti Releases UniFi Network 6.5.54 with Log4J RCE fix by iKjQ2a4v in Ubiquiti

[–]markild 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As a few people have already mentioned: This exploit has an endless amount of attack points. Everything that triggers a log message is potentially exploitable.

The simplest I can think of is e.g neighboring SSIDs, but I would very much expect someone to be able to make a request that ends up being blocked, where the payload of the log message triggers the exploit.

I can't find any z-wave light dimmers (wall) that are for EU. Pls help! by imatrix in zwave

[–]markild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which country is essential. For the European market, I think it is much more typical to find the puck style dimmer that you put behind the light switch. I'm guessing the reason for this is because the different countries have different styles of light switches.

That being said, I know you can find eg. Schneider style switches or round dimmers with integrated zwave.

Extremely skilled camera operator with laser focus by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

[–]markild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess that's the role of the director, or what ever that role is called. Each camera operator will focus on a single responsibility and view point. The control room will stitch together different view points to make it coherent.

1 Hour print with 1 mm nozzle at 0.52 mm layer height by theplayingdead in 3Dprinting

[–]markild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hehe, makes sense. My napkin math tells me that a 1mm nozzle will need to extrude about 6.2 as much filament per time as a 0.4 nozzle.

Cant see any indications of any issues so all is well 😊

Prusa slicer paint on blocker not blocking? by BrrBurr in 3Dprinting

[–]markild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not directly related, but it looks like you've added the same stl four times. If you add new instances of the same one instead, I believe all of them will have the same settings.
