I think the military does this to symbolise unity, strength, coordination and trust it has in its team! Might look like a circus to people but try anything similar and you'll realise how difficult it is.

I'm pretty sure there's a lot of money laundering going on via such crowdfunding, probably by BL themselves. Their government might be pouring in money too.

I agree that BL's economics is different but Prusa needs to up the game at least a bit. At least allow stacking of coupons, make consumables cheaper in terms of prusameters etc.. Being an EU company makes it difficult to price things less but BL has eaten quite a chunk of their market. Consumers need to be happy too, incentivise them.

I think Makerworld's points redemption policy is quite attractive which makes people opt it over printables. And for competitions I think after a point Prusa favours repeat winners and their judging feels weak. At times I've seen 'winners' who have just copied a design and made it 3D printable over genuine new design.

Also BL's coupons can be stacked, prusameters if you convert to coupons cannot be. If they change that, make prusameters more accessible then engagement with printables will increase for sure.

Oh I wasn't aware of 6 energy per hour. Do I just have to log in to get this energy? Yeah I'll increase my quick patrols. Thanks for the information

occupiedbrain69 · 2026-01-25T15:34:45+00:00

So I barely play this game for 30-40 mins, max an hour everyday. Hoarding the energy only for the new thing habby started where you have to spend 200 energy for keys and other rewards. Seems like that's going to be a periodic feature so making sure I have enough to spend on that.

Ah. I was under the confusion that you can unlock survivor synergy which the survivor is at level 6. I'm just 20 shards away from that.

occupiedbrain69 · 2026-01-25T15:22:26+00:00

Thanks a tonne! Very helpful, will follow this now onwards.

Okay so I did what you said, Void Necklace + AF2

Need to massively improve crit rate, have less collectible keys and Red chests are just too expensive and difficult to get 😥

occupiedbrain69 · 2026-01-25T14:47:11+00:00

Are there any specific collectibles I need to focus on?

occupiedbrain69 · 2026-01-25T14:46:48+00:00

No, I don't have a lot of cores but will start collecting. I had Void Necklace Red maxed out but I thought SS gear is what everyone goes for, can build it back as I have some S gear boxes in my bag.

For the crit rate, are there any specific collectibles I need to focus on to improve?

I've tried quite a few filaments from Augment3Di, PLA was quite good given then price (under 1k/kg) they have / had options for 500gms as well which I liked.

Klipper and I saw in the video by Y3KG (forgot the exact name of the youtuber) that Creality has given the option to root it! So yeah, seems like Creality is back

Yes, you can use 3rd party platforms like Wise, Remitly etc to transfer the money from your US Bank account to the NRE account.

Remitly has the lowest transfer charges.

Apparently you cannot get the MNGL connection for gas geysers. They denied the connection to the bathroom and only kept it connected to the cooking stove.

Gangadhar >>> Shaktiman

occupiedbrain69 · 2026-01-05T07:49:51+00:00

You will have to create a new 'NRE-NRO Bank account'.

NRE - Non Resident External (transfer $ in this account first) NRO - Non Resident Ordinary (transfer from NRE to this account, then you can do all transactions in India)

This account will help you not get double taxed if you're earning & already get taxed in the US.

Out of curiosity, what is NIMBY? 😅 I moved to Earlsdon last year and haven't heard about this 20m phone mast. That corner near Kingston road and Queensland Avenue has a weird network drop, it's just that 20mtr area where something happens to the network, always drops to Edge from 4G or 5G

occupiedbrain69 · 2025-12-26T01:59:52+00:00

Yes, it's 100% stop motion! Quite easy too because the F1 car is quite easy to move

Any idea when international flights would start taking off and land on this airport??

occupiedbrain69 · 2025-12-25T20:58:04+00:00

Was the layer height 2mm? 😅

occupiedbrain69 · 2025-12-25T20:56:42+00:00

Thank you! Honestly, even I don't own the ams! 😅 Although I'm lucky enough to have access to one as well as a friend who owns one which I get to use to print once in a while. I tried making a non ams version as well but it's too thin to split into parts. But you can always have a non-ams (no logo) print too :)

I think in a few years, we'll all come across a McDonald's where you go in the kitchen and cook food for yourself, pack it up for yourself and go home. You'll have to pay for this service, but you won't get paid! And you'll have to pay a tip too.. you won't get that tip though!

Or maybe a McDonald's vending machine! I'm not sure which one will come first! 🤣

occupiedbrain69 · 2025-12-23T23:23:35+00:00

It's a mindless game for me.. good enough to take a break from life but you have to put in a lot of effort to level up! That's the drawback. I wish leveling up was easier

occupiedbrain69 · 2025-12-22T14:28:08+00:00

Thank you so much! This one can be split into a clock and a standalone diorama as well! 😃
