IMO it’s worth the time and effort to learn the basics. You don’t need to be an elite level modeler because you’re not modeling for animation or games. I’ve had good luck with simple fixes and mods in Blender.

My experience is entirely with SLA, however, FDM might be a bit trickier.

This is damned impressive.

When the weather is nice like it is this year, we put a table and chairs out on our driveway and decorate it. We sit there and have a drink and pass out candy. It’s more fun than answering the door, and we end up chatting with neighbors and parents. Our next door neighbors did the same thing as us this year, and it was even more fun, as they were right next to us hanging out.

Suckers. People point and laugh at me for free.

Post doesn’t follow Rule 1. Please update the title of the post.

I feel like the NFL is maybe leaving money on the table here, and is too greedy and out of touch to even see it. I could be wrong, but I bet if they charged, say, $5 to watch any out-of-market game the customer wants, they would make a killing.

Instead, they charge like $400 or something for all of the out-of-market games. Most people aren’t going to pay that much. Especially if they only care about one team that’s out of their area.

Best brother.

Can OP (or anyone) provide a legitimate source for this?

From what I can find, Amazon and its partners do dynamic pricing (based on various algorithms) but I can find no evidence / source that it does personalized individualized pricing.

IOW, dynamic pricing is not done at the individual shopper level, but can be based on many variables like lightning deals, sudden spikes in demand, inventory issues (over supply / under supply) and various other factors which are not related to the individual shopper.

Anecdotal evidence is interesting, but not persuasive.

I won’t claim it’s the equivalent of the Bambu Labs FDM printer, because I’ve never done FDM printing.

On top of that, I’m only familiar with the one resin printer I’ve used.

Anyway, it’s an Anycubic Photon Mono X 4k. I’ve had really good luck with it, and I’ve printed over 200 miniatures and other things. I’ve had some failed prints but they were almost always my fault for doing something dumb, and there haven’t been that many overall. I’m guessing easily less than 5%.

I wouldn’t recommend the exact same model as mine, because they have newer ones (like an 8k version of mine and some others).

But I would definitely recommend the Anycubic Photon line as worth looking into. Read some reviews & watch some videos.

Good luck!

Thank you, this is the sort of thing I was trying to point out. And I love how he ignored all my other points just to focus on this one ISO or installer he’s using over and over again to “prove” that he’s right.

Funny part is, I never said it was the default in the original post anyway. The whole point is, if it’s turned on, you may want to turn it off.

There is also a registry hack for this but I have not looked into it or tested it. (And I agree with your sentiments re: Microsoft.)

First of all I believe you are incorrect.

You’re doing a single anecdotal “test” from (I assume) one copy of the installation media. News flash, not all installation images of Windows 11 are the same.

And I will answer your anecdotal evidence with some anecdotal evidence of my own: almost every friend and coworker I’ve asked about this says Autoplay is on. And when I check Google or ChatGPT, they confirm that a fresh install of Windows 11 will have it on by default. So…I guess everyone else is wrong about this but you’re right about every installation of Windows 11.

Secondly, your question ignores the fact that people should probably check to see if it’s on. It can get turned on accidentally or even by an update. Microsoft is constantly messing arbitrarily with user preferences and settings with their weekly updates. You do know that, right?

Finally, you posted some version of this same reply multiple times in this thread. Why? Are you just doing that to “get upvotes for fun”?

BTW, there’s no karma on lemmy…upvotes don’t matter.

It’s fine to correct someone, but first do a better job of checking your methodology, and second, don’t assume their motivations for trying to share helpful info.

Think of it as a seatbelt. You don’t plan on crashing your car, but shit happens. It’s even possible a brand new USB drive from a “reputable” company could have something on it.

Very few sane people want to hold office. The truth of the job is that it’s almost nonstop fundraising. The system is intentionally broken to keep money in power.

Yep. It sucks. My doc joked that we all have rocks in our heads, har har.

It can sometimes be treated with a simple technique (more info below, also mentioned in the article above). When it works, it brings amazing relief.

Unfortunately it doesn’t always work. An ENT specialist can help you with it.

Glad you sorted it!

The DeDrm plugin and the most recent Calibre worked for me just yesterday on a brand new book. Something that’s easy to miss is that you need to put in the serial number of your kindle device and make sure you download the e-book for that same device. Otherwise the plugin won’t be able to decrypt it.

View source worked for me, but there’s a couple of tricks to it I think…maybe.

First I made sure I was on the channel’s main page and not one of the channel’s videos. Then I did right-click “view source”. The source is all smashed together (unformatted) of course. It’s annoying to search and read like that, so I copy-pasted the source into my favorite text editor and was able to find “channelid” it that way.

It’s a really nice app. Very customizable.

I’m glad you mentioned airplane mode. I noticed something interesting about my Kindle after I set up a Pi Hole on my home network. The kindle would constantly try to connect to the Amazon mothership. Because the Pi Hole was blocking it, it would try it over and over again and this quickly depleted the batteries (maybe trying to boost it’s WiFi signal? I’m not sure). Putting it into Airplane mode helps preserve battery life noticeably, back to what it was before I installed the Pi Hole.
