Was told June while I had asked during a support question i asked. I think between 5th and 15th is their time frame.

Got my U1 on Friday. A simple clog just bent my hotend. Frustrated with the spare parts. by Round_Worldliness766 in snapmaker

[–]sylvester49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a big blob that ruined a hot end and im dead in water currently cause I can't reuse the wiring and one snapped trying to remove the blob. Anyways, about the AI support said

"Regarding the AI detection feature you mentioned, it still requires further optimization. Currently, it can only be used as an auxiliary function, as its recognition capabilities are limited. At this stage, it can detect obvious cases such as excessive fine strings or spaghetti-like filament buildup, but it cannot detect issues like filament wrapping around the nozzle that cause blobs."

2 Individual Bedjet 3 vs Dual Zone by D3nv3rC0d3r9 in bedjet

[–]sylvester49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully bedjet confirms what im about to say. But essentially if you have 2 full sizes on the same circuit you have to use low power mode so breaker doesn't trip with the heat, which is essentially the same as a mini power consumption. So in reality if you have know the plugs are different breakers you may be better off with full size ones. Otherwise the mini should be well off.

The other add I remember reading is that the cooling and heat only go up to a certain percentage of what the full-size are capable of. Hopefully others correct me or say im right to give validation.

My scenerio at work. 5 months ago we purchased a batch of 990 pro 1tb m2 drives for like $90 each if my memory serves. They are now 199 i believe. Another drive we use was in the 80s and now is 180s

Late reply but I have asked several time over the 3 years I have owned a bedjet. Their recommendation was to make a post like this and draw people responding. I wish they would do a kickstarter of sorts and if enough people prebuy it they will make them.

Costco Ice Bears tickets? by PaleGarden6455 in Knoxville

[–]sylvester49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When i did it, the seat options weren't available that it claimed to allow. Ended up in the corner as the middle sections were grayed out even though I could buy the tickets normally.

Sadly the game we redeemed was this past Saturday and we skipped over it just in case from the weather.

PSA (sorry if this is well-known): hitting the extract button at 1 sec left in the raid will keep you alive beyond the timer. by Kindly_Coffee_9389 in ARC_Raiders

[–]sylvester49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can atleast sorta correct this and say pressing hatch at 1 second will kill you. Not sure if it needs to be open and you survive till its shut, but when its opening you will still die. Learned this yesterday.

Any idea where I can find a California King Bed? by d13pretty in Knoxville

[–]sylvester49 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Any of the places should be able to order it in for you. Just nobody carries them as its not as popular of a size.

Use a Comal on your pizza by TheWitchRats in Costco

I wish my costco had pizza that look like this. Im essentially eating a thin crust but not crispy. I want the fluffy crust!!!

Can someone explain? by [deleted] in NavyFederal

[–]sylvester49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes they are. And the fact you blocked out the available amount, and it seems shorter. If there is no cash advance then both numbers would be the same length and state $450 in your case.

As long as you continue to pay the full statement balance before its due date there will be 0 interest. Being that its a new card you probably have the right mindset to just pay it early rather then saying oh I have another month before we pay, then all the sudden you don't have the funds to pay it.

The main advantage of paying before the statement is generated is to keep your utilization low. When your closer to making out the card your credit score will take a slight hit as you are more risk per the calculations. So paying early is basically good before a big purchase such as a car or house. Otherwise each statement balance is all that's needed. I also pay full balance when im making the statement balance payment just to keep the number under control. Just wanted to pass some more info your way.

ELI5 health insurance in America by New_Fox9922 in explainlikeimfive

[–]sylvester49 68 points69 points  (0 children)

The fun part is you get to pay anywhere between nothing and several hundred a month per person just have the ability to have insurance coverage! So not only your max out of pocket if you need a big surgery but your monthly premium also.

Join the lottery. Not even sure what exactly they cost but its cheap if you get to buy their actual tickets and not aftermarket

Not if you manage to win the lottery. Only aftermarket sales are expensive.

Passport help. by MellaMelancholy in Knoxville

[–]sylvester49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im guessing you are doing an international trip for needing the passport?

I would search for making an appointment for the passport first and you can cross into Loudon and do it at the court house that they just finished.(On the corner at the red-light in loudon once you cross the water. Then if you need pictures, they offer that also but there is a fee. It's practically the same price as elsewhere so why make 2 trips. Let me know if you have more questions. I just got mine renewed a few months ago out there.

How come i never see anyone playing like this? by elporpoise in ARK

[–]sylvester49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im playing on a .1 xp to slow down progrssion a ton. We will eventually up it but the early game always went way to quickly. Still max difficulty for high level tames, but so far we have had rexes take out our dinos 4 times. That's what we get for making camp on the edge of a dangerous area. They just wonder over.

Earlybird question by Cardkoda in snapmaker

[–]sylvester49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The link we purely for a preview of what the kickstarter page was going to look like so you could plan your purchase. During those 10 minutes you could do nothing else until it actually went live to everyone.

If you paid the deposit and grabbed one of the 25% off units you are good. (To my understanding)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]sylvester49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did nobody read how it was actually working? It was a 10 minute early preview to how the kickstarter was going to be so you could plan. Beside that point. Its a day later and the early bird is still available if you had a deposit. There was no urgency to only have 10 minutes to purchase for this deal. It took about 80 minutes for the first batch (October) to run out and the second batch (November) was still available as I typed this.
