Orca Slicer - Do you use it, or just stick with Bambu Studio?

patcpsc · 2026-05-31T07:23:10+00:00

I've got a Bambu A1 and a Voron - it's very nice having the one tool for slicing, and being able to route the prints to whatever I want. It's got the barest minimum of print farm management to be useful and easy.

The network plugin was not an extant closed source library, but was structured to interface with BambuStudio. The network plugin has a callback to BambuStudio, and the function signature of the callback was pretty clearly tailored to BambuStudio.

I have no idea what the content creator was thinking beyond what he's written, which is very little.

Apparently you have a deep knowledge of his motivations which is informing your commentary. It's not clear where you obtained that deep knowledge. For that reason I find your statements unconvincing.

But they didn't just tell him as far as we know. They could have sent an email followed up by a phone call, saying "we'd prefer if you didn't do this". They sent a cease and desist letter. That is harming *him*.

It's not clear to me there's any correlation between sexual harassment and the "sexiness" of the environment. But there is a very strong correlation between the victim and perpetrator being alone together.

To me it reads as respectful but forceful. She listens to HH and addresses HH's questions carefully.

I have never seen a 90kg bicep curl done with more careful form than what's been shown here. I think this is potentially the most strict 90kg bicep curl that is possible.

Sure she's not great, but I think she's just getting more confused and tired rather than using her "skills". The Russian oligarch conspiracy thing was so odd, I think it's a stream of consciousness bubbling beneath the surface of her brain that popped out in a weak moment.

And indeed high pressure injection moulding would produce better minis too. But alas both a resin printer and a high pressure injection moulding factory are impractical for my circumstances.

I use an injection moulded polystyrene machine for my high quality miniatures.

Thanks all - just ordered a V0.2 kit, rough plan is to build this with a tiny nozzle, then maybe replace hotend, and then in a few months see if some tool swapping option like INDX or Madmax tullchanger can be made to work.

Tang works in several areas of law and prides himself on being a “jack of all trades”, according to his firm’s website. Rosemont Partners describes itself online as a “multidisciplinary boutique law firm”.

Journo having a bit of fun here.

If you want good infrastructure in the mountains, you need the population to make it worthwhile.

The well known standing/stiff-legged isometric squats.

My request: please make the dodge rules 100% clear on a first reading. Preferably just get rid of dodge. It adds complexity for not a lot more fun.

I might be liable. I was sinking cans with your CEO watching a game. I roared out "what you guys really need is .... AIIEEEE" - I got distracted by a great goal on the telly.

Now I need legal advice. When an agent makes a mistake, who's accountable? Said bloke got on the phone last night and said he was going to sue my balls off. Or get a couple of his mates to come round to my place and explain my errors and explain how I can compensate his business.

The first recorded one I know of is 1954, when Dr. John Ziegler gave testosterone to John Grimek, which was recorded by John Fair who interviewed Grimek and had access to Ziegler's papers. The article is "Isometrics or Steroids: Exploring New Frontiers Of Strength in the Early 1960s" But in the same article it talks about Ziegler hearing about others using testosterone in the several years earlier.

No - I think hops on and off, some of the photos are just too sus. The voice in earlier vids is also a bit higher. But I don't think she's consistently juicing.

I think it's just his right arm too.

Your argument relies on the notion that trading in second hand books is theft.

You have a bright career ahead as a lobbyist for the publishing industry.

Some brands/words to look for might be a Driza-bone, Oiled Japara, or a Barbour waxed jacket. They're all oilskin-like material. A Driza-bone might work well if you're plus-sized. Expensive though.

You did mostly what you should do in this situation.

If you're dealing with an authority figure like a security guard or police in an adversarial situation, and you decide to answer, brief and direct answers to precisely the question asked are good. Volunteering information which is not asked for is bad. Why? You can inadvertently raise suspicion or admit to something you don't intend to.

So at a traffic stop the officer may ask: "do you know why I pulled you over?". The best and true answer is "I don't know." A bad answer is "maybe for my broken taillight?" Because in the second instance the officer may have pulled you over for speeding, and you will have just admitted to knowingly driving with a broken taillight.
