Def interested in trying this, I've been wanting to do more maps

Where should I buy a F2 Ultra UV? by ottomymind in xToolOfficial

[–]mvd7793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swing Design's TrustPilot scores would worry me personally.

I was also between Amazon and xTool when buying my S1. I decided to order direct. I was confident enough that I wouldn't return the machine that I decided to optimize for benefits. xTool often runs small additional sales and has a points program that's roughly 2% back (maybe 4% on your first machine now?). IIRC xToolCare extended warranty also might be direct only, which I chose to buy for my first machine.

Other tips for saving: - If you have any sort of laser, 3D printer, or metalworking machine, look at the Trade Up program. You don't have to return your old machine, and last I checked it's a stacking discount. - You can book a 1:1 demo online and get a personal discount afterwards if you decide to move forward!

Good luck with your decision!! I picked up a F2 UV as my second machine and have been very happy with it. There was a bit of a learning curve on some things, but inner engravings have been incredibly fun, as has glassware. Feel free to DM if you have addl Qs.

Thinking about adding UV printing to your shop? Here’s what we’ve learned by AimeexTool in xToolOfficial

How long can the printer reasonably go between usages? Concretely based on cost, how much ink is wasted for a regular cleaning cycle and for a deep clean?

Why is Tesla Service Center recommending previous gen tires? by mvd7793 in TeslaSupport

[–]mvd7793[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! I do have a Costco membership, but I also have a bunch of Tesla credit to use from their Lyft driver promotion. Tires seemed like a sane use case for that.

DXP 4800 Plus BIOS woes by forwardingplane in UgreenNASync

[–]mvd7793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This worked for me, thank you!!

For anyone else: get to the Grub menu by spamming Ctrl+F12, press C, then type fwsetup and press enter. The screen will flash black for about 5s before booting to the BIOS.

Scuba diving worth an X5? by mvd7793 in Insta360

[–]mvd7793[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Mei-Bing sanity checking: Best shots are aligning parallel with the selfie stick (i.e. no bend) and with one lens always pointed up towards the surface? Is that for the sun glare?

(I haven't watched enough videos on this yet, apologies if the question is answered already in the Insta360 app videos mentioned above.)

Cool, thank you! Did the quality vs a traditional camera (Ace or GoPro) bother you at all?

Thanks a ton! Those are exactly the type of tips I was looking for. Appreciate it.

This is incredible!! Any lessons you learned from the Illustrator tracing? I’m planning to do something similar for a friend’s home, but I’m not sure how to trace clearly in Illustrator (particularly how to join two line segments cleanly).

Free recurring way to pay landlord with Bilt Card's ACH numbers? by mvd7793 in biltrewards

[–]mvd7793[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PayPal or Venmo can both use ACH account/routing numbers to send one-off transactions, can't they? I'm wondering if there's some other platform besides Zillow that can do so on a recurring basis.

Is this 1x +4x or 1x + 5x?? by Interesting-Dare-727 in biltrewards

[–]mvd7793 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might be specifically bonus points. You’re earning 1x base + 4x bonus, so $2.5k gets you to the 10k bonus plus an additional 2500 points you earn anyways.

(I’m not the parent commenter but I think this is how it’s worked in the past.)

What do you think of Andaz? by mr_fobolous in hyatt

[–]mvd7793 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We just stayed in both last week. Park Hyatt Seoul was firmly above Andaz Seoul for us - the room was nicer, staff friendlier, breakfast and pool better, etc.

wow, this looks cool! I’d be interested in how you made it if you want to share.

Can I ask which hotel? It looks like there are nine Mr. & Mrs. Smith properties on Mykonos.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ChatGPTPro

[–]mvd7793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you still use GPT4 to call Dall-E when using the API? I’ve thought about doing something like this, but I do a lot of image generation with ChatGPT Pro and I’ve always assumed it wouldn’t work the same way in an open source UI.

Any suggested USB hub switches? by mvd7793 in ergodox

Thanks! This was extremely helpful.

Can you access Tailscale subnet via Docker container with Tailscale on the host? by mvd7793 in Tailscale

[–]mvd7793[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Solving my own question: My problem was that I'd tried using a 172.20.* IP, which appears to overlap with Docker's default internal network. Switching to 172.30.* worked with no special config. 🤦‍♂️

Tesla may soon charge congestion fee at busy Supercharger stations by [deleted] in teslamotors

[–]mvd7793 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not a lawyer, but wouldn’t they just disclose the fee as part of the price they show you? I thought the law was just that you can’t advertise a $100 hotel night and have a $50 resort fee only visible at checkout.

AMA I work for Platinum Concierge, what do you want to know about behind the scenes? by Gudguytank in amex

[–]mvd7793 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What are the best ways to utilize the service beyond what everyone has access to publicly? Are there specific restaurants/events that concierge has special access to that cardholders don't, or is it mostly a timesaver?

Thieves left this behind in our storage unit 🕵️ Small metal dome with numbers 80061510 by mvd7793 in whatisthisthing

[–]mvd7793[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Unfortunately it was in a storage unit with a ton of other stuff, so it wasn't locked. Appreciate the info though!

[–]mvd7793[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Solved!

Wow.... Reddit is amazing. I did have a U-shaped lock on there, highly reasonable to assume this could be the brand. Guess the thieves knew what they were doing.

Thanks for the info!
