The people that are smart enough to adjust their headlights aren’t the problem. The majority of people aren’t and they drive with those stadium lights everywhere.

The bar is not that high.

You break spaghetti in Italy. Trust me they’ll appreciate it.

My Ender 5 performs very well after replacing everything but the frame.

Somebody set up us the bomb!

I’ve made a decent NAS out of a Raspberry Pi 4. It used USB to SATA converters and old hard drives.

My setup has one 3Tb drive and two 1.5Tb drives. The 1.5Tb drives form a 3Tb drive using RAID and then combines with the 3Tb drive to make redundant storage.

Yes it’s inefficient AF but it’s good enough for full HD streaming so good enough for me.

I’m too stingy to buy better drives.

10 was obnoxious enough. 11 dialed it up to 11.

This is something straight out of Warhammer 40000.

Cortana got rampancy IRL.

“Talking fluently”. You get completely meaningless answers. Big walls of text without content.

AI is a hindrance, not a helper.

Have you considered lasercutting or CNC milling as well? And what about lithophanes?

3D printers are highly accessible to people, even people with no technical knowledge can just buy one, download models and have it print successfully. Selling 3D printed parts pretty much only works if you do design as well and not many people request something like that. I don’t think you can make a feasible business out of 3D printing alone.

And there is mechanical design and aesthetic design, which both are completely different practices. I mean things like making a TV mount or a tube holder vs making a detailed Warhammer 40K model. You need different software and skills for both of them and it consumes a lot of time to do well.

CNC milling and lasercutting is not as wide spread as 3D printing is so you could still end up finding people interested in objects made this way.

Hey man, it’s an honest business owner. That’s an extremely rare sight.

Okay so if I want to print a gun I’ll just tighten an eccentric nut or belt tensioner. Lol

I think a dual nozzle system is already good enough for most users. Especially when your print area is large enough to make it feasible.

WAF had me laugh out loud.

Talent at Microsoft? The only thing they’ve done the past decade is make their product worse.

Lower speed means less flow through the nozzle and warmer plastic. It will have more time at the melting temperature and therefore stick better to the previous layer.

The devils lettuce is also lettuce, right?

I’ve used milk jugs as plant pots before. It’s food safe material and you can easily design a build around it. Better not have anything 3D printed come into contact with food.

The fan ducts are in the Printables link. They are designed for the rod system so if you can find 10mm rods long enough for an Ender 5 Plus it should work.
