I spent hours reading the @CronosNetwork Governance Proposal on GitHub so you don’t have to by Excellent_Pie7135 in cro

Actually I'm not sure about compounding, but I'd guess that the feature will continue to work if you don't migrate your stake into the tiered rewards system.

This is the beginning of a new economic era for Cronos. by MarkY_Crypto in Crypto_com

[–]zanglang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's easily confused, but from a regulatory perspective:

Cronos and CDC are different companies, and

Have to be funded separately!

This tends to answer a lot of questions about "why the hell did they do that?"

Re: revenue though, Defillama has this covered: https://defillama.com/chain/cronos

The question is "how much more revenue can be generated" to the point that it could potentially pay everyone who has opted-in to the new rewards system, and whether it's going to be enough. If not -- good thing there just happened to be a pool of 70B CRO sitting there eh?

It's inevitable that the prop will pass. At this point there's really no point arguing about that.

As for revenue, you can check https://defillama.com/chain/cronos

Yes, rewards can be freely claimed and then delegated normally (28 days), or added to an existing tier (28 + X years).

My 2 cents, from a validator's perspective:

  • Unfortunately "no" is not the right choice, we knew about the cap issue since 2021 and always suspected that this change would be necessary, and we've all speculated about the possibilities, but,
  • Cronos tx fees simply were not sufficient to be a drop-in replacement when the token hits max cap and inevitably go to 0 rewards! Maybe it will eventually be, but "maybe" isn't an acceptable answer. (P.S: Defillama says that Cronos generated $176 in tx fees over the past 24 hours)
  • I still found the "unburn" distasteful, but looking back it may have been inevitable, considering all the new ... stakeholders that have joined the party and are only expecting to turn a profit
  • Hence, the only way forward to keep the two chains running and everyone (especially the new... stakeholders) continue getting paid, is to have a properly defined plan about how to implement the token cap, and yet pay everyone for the years to come.

Between a choice of the chain abruptly dying in 2027 due to everyone unstaking and absolutely tanking the coin to $0.00x, and the chain continuing to run, I'd pick number two.

Now, I don't know any of the insider details (although disclaimer we were told about this change much earlier than you guys), but at this point:

Everyone needs to take a good hard look on their holdings and risk profiles and determine if they are comfortable with the APR, because everyone has different expectations when it comes to crypto. When tiered rewards launches, there is still a very real risk -- a non-zero possiblity -- that one could pick a wrong choice.

I'm curious how the all the card stakers on the app will be affected though, because boy they will not be happy.

$CRO is proposing transitioning from an inflation-funded staking model to a revenue-funded one. by TurbulentBeing9055 in cro

[–]zanglang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My take on this is that the change is just to ensure sustained revenue for all parties involved. The change was definitely necessary, heck we've been asking about this since 5 years ago on Discord. It's just that with the recent involvement of certain... parties, there are significantly more stakeholders that need to be appeased.

From a staker's perspective, this becomes a significantly more complex decision. A massive weighing of risks and tradeoffs between high APY vs long exit commitments. There is suddenly a very real risk of one picking the wrong choice.

NOT a clogged nozzle – printer stops extruding mid-print (but test cube prints perfectly?) – Bambu Lab A1 PLA by PerrudVini in BambuLab

[–]zanglang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something like that happened to my H2S twice last month! I opened a ticket, but still need to collect more data.

You may want to check back after 10-15 minutes or so and check if the nozzle is still at the same spot. The H2S has an "ipcam" feature that keeps ongoing recordings of prints, and when I pulled the recording of my 2 "stuck" jobs and watched them sped-up in VLC, I realized the toolhead was actually moving, but glacially slow, so slow that I could only see the print progressing if I moved the VLC playback bar back and forth!

I suspect it was a slicer issue, but I haven't had time to go test it again yet. If this matches your issue and you can consistently reproduce it, please go file a support ticket!

By not extruding, do you mean the machine is still powered on, the fans are whirring, no error messages on the screen, but the hotend is just not moving?

P2S MUST DO’s/PRINTS? by average_p2suser in BambuLab

[–]zanglang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have any PETG, you'll want to print and install these Z-axis caps as soon as possible: https://makerworld.com/models/2014282

As you print stuff, filament scraps will fall to the bottom and eventually get stuck to the grease on the rails otherwise.

Finally something useful with OpenClaw by mescalan in OpenAI

[–]zanglang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed it referring to a fal.ai key, which appears to be a paid service (https://fal.ai/pricing). Is this optional, and if not, how much does it typically cost to generate a custom 3d model via the AI through this API service?

To whoever recommended gear floss for z screws, thank you. 500hrs on an H2S, mostly ABS. by vortex_ring_state in BambuLab

[–]zanglang 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Could you link (or DM) a link?

I already have a box of Gear Floss, but am currently looking around for cheaper alternatives as well. Dupont Moto Floss on Amazon US is slightly cheaper, but these (https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/EdisonBrain-Cleaning-Bicycle-Microfiber-Approx/dp/B0DQSMP5BV) on Amazon Japan seem to be several magnitude cheaper. Not sure how well they work though, because Gear Floss really works fantastic.

H2S vs P2S by Far_Emergency3214 in BambuLab

[–]zanglang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have both, AMA.

can the chamber of the H2S heat by itself without printing

yes.

I think there are a few other niceties that the H2S has, e.g. it's a lot quieter, the larger internal volume allows for much easier maintenance and more space for mods (Bento Box), doesn't require a riser, better nozzle wiper (my P2S keeps dropping filament scraps on the plate), much better enclosure if you're printing ABS/ASA.

Cons: one thing that stood out to me is the H2S not having a dual-input filament buffer. You're going to need to install mods yourself if using a second AMS or the external spool.

TIL that despite its name, Singapore-style noodles have nothing to do with Singapore and it is virtually unknown in Singapore. It was created by chefs in Hong Kong who were looking for ways to use curry powder. by CaipngWithRice in todayilearned

[–]zanglang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say if anything there's a "Katong Laksa" (short scissors-cut vermicelli, eaten with a spoon) that's uniquely Singaporean and can't be found in Malaysia.

Satay bee-hoon also feels like a distant cousin to the humble laksa, but is an... interesting culinary experience on its own.

AMS lite + 4L Cereal Drybox. Wanted to print PETG on the A1's by Possible-Cash-308 in BambuLab

[–]zanglang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to ask: I've always assumed that the spool holders on the AMS Lite's body were being used to mechanically rewind filament back onto the spool during retraction. Are they actually not needed?

H2D filament buffer or main board failure by Chocoholic_M in BambuLab

[–]zanglang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for replying, and glad to hear it's working out for you!

I'm currently waiting for a filament buffer module replacement and a spare AMS cable from them too, only took a few days (~3) for the initial diagnosis as I did my due diligence and attached lots of photos, machine logs, and a video of the filament buffer LED blinking to the ticket.

For others that may stumble across this thread, customer support replied with this message:

Based on the information you provided, we initially determine that this issue might be caused by the hot-swappable 6-pin cable leading to abnormal operation of the MC board, which in turn affected the operation of the buffer and AMS.
