It seems society has to swing that pendulum as far to either side as possible every time.
Men the best! Women the best, men evil! Women evil, Men the best!
humans are so fucking stupid, collectively. we just repeat patterns over and over and over
then why have any consumer protections? and why have a minimum wage?
They are just going to make up for it with higher prices right? Let's make min wage $1 so we can all enjoy low prices. right?
You are playing into their hands
anyone over retirement age should be barred from running, and that should not be controversial.
If you got on a plane and the pilot was 80 you'd be a bit worried, and we let these fucks run the most powerful nation ever to exist.
Black woman: she probably deserved it
White woman: poor girl she had a future!
We just let anybody have a gun these days
I say that as a firearm owner and manufacturer. Anytime somebody asks me about my guns I explain to them how any 13-year-old could have done the same thing and how are gun laws are completely broken
You can be pro gun in pro regulation at the same time, fuck all these false dichotomies
You can usually just add the plain controller rails to any working phone case.
I found a design that worked well, redesigned it to be better and added the controller rails.
I think the rail files are on thingiverse
parallel thought I guess!
I'd love to check out what you came up with if you have the files up somewhere!
If you truly believe this you should be training with firearms. Go far enough left and you get your guns back
Profit avg is probably 400.
Material cost is about $1 for a phone case, sells for $25.
CAD cost per sale is very low. I have learned to make my CAD workflow way better after doing all these cases. Now I have a plan ahead of time and not a mile-long timeline in Fusion lol.
If you are comfortable editing GCode then the Chameleon is a good choice, if not the A1 combo looks really compelling. I was torn between the two, but already have 3 printers.
I think the Prusa XL is the best option right now, but the price is crazy high
one of the best 3DP creators out there! I love how he tries to be as scientific as possible and get real answers. There is a lot of bro-science out there and it's refreshing to have concrete results to go off.
There is another option you haven't explored. 3dChameleon
This allows you to turn any machine into a 4 material capable printer. It is not plug-and-play, but if you already have a printer it's cheaper than getting a whole dedicated machine ($180).
It can do flexibles too, which I didnt expect it to be able to do. Working on making phone cases with TPU inside and PLA outside.
There is an update coming in April that will make it way easier to configure, with sensor-less detection of filament position.
If you want something that works perfectly out of the box I'd go with A1 combo from Bambu Labs though. The Chameleon takes a little tinkering to get working
Learn CAD my guy! No asking for permission if you made the design!
I make between $500 and $1k a month in profit selling my original designs. 3D Printing is so much more rewarding when you can turn ideas into products instead of finding files people made
I love the 2-tone look!
I had made a tray for myself a while back but my smoking habits change so frequently between dabs, bong, joints, and vaping.
Might have to revisit this now that I'm not a complete CAD noob
Phones are so powerful these days too. Plus I can game for 6 hours on my phone straight, try that on a steam deck lol.
120hz top-of-the-line OLED, really nice speakers, and it's not another device to charge and carry with you.
Also, using my Fold with the Junglecat controllers + my case is like having a giant screen steam-deck that can fit in my pocket. no comparison IMO
There is billions of dollars in preventing this. Amazon has an entire fleet of people hired for the sole purpose of stopping unionization, which is illegal but they get away with it because power.
This is what happens when money and power write our laws. First step is to get money out of politics. No more millionaires representing people making an avg of 35k a year.
The USA is supposed to be a Country of the people, by the people and for the people.
Free market communism sounds American as fuck to me.
Free markets can exist without corporate overlords, we collectively need to stop believing the Capitalism vs Communism false-dichotomy. Hybrid systems are the future, any other pure system devolves into slavery.
I've been dreaming of a future where Uber, DoorDash, etc are devoid of any corporate organization. Developers, drivers and support staff are the only human workers, the rest is organized by a complex, but open source, program.
No investors, no shareholders, every cent goes to the workers. Wages are higher in prices are lower because we aren't paying five VPs a million dollars a year or sending all our profits to the shareholders.
I think advances in computing and AI could actually make this possible. If only greed didn't run the world it might be doable
I want free market capitalism that works for us. What we have now if slavery with extra steps

I had made Junglecat controller cases for my galaxy fold but just got a S23 Ultra and decided to make another for this phone.
I love how perfectly the size of the controllers matches the phone width. It makes it look like one cohesive device!
Speakers, USB and pen are all accessible still.

I finally got multi-color working on my Creality K1 Max using the 3D Chameleon.
Decided to make a 2 color benchy and scaled it down to 75% to save time, along with 0.25mm layer height.
So far the Chameleon has been pretty picky with filament, but when it works it works well! This print is with silk gold and matte black. I have even gotten 95A TPU to print with it surprisingly!
I modified the color-change code so it takes 1 minute less, which makes a big difference when you have hundreds of color changes.
Next up, 4 color benchy. Probably will be 10 hrs lol
I know this is very specific to my devices, but thought I'd share anyways. Really happy with how this came out and how convenient it is.
I have been playing with this idea for a while and finally designed it. This charges my ZFold3, Galaxy Watch6 and XROS vape all at the same time on my nightstand. Phone and watch chargers are wireless, vape charger is a cable inserted to make a 'dock'.
I designed slots in the bottom so the cables all route out the back.
I added a little area at the front for miscellaneous items, like lip balm and coins.
I'm kicking myself now for not including a place to put my glasses, but I might design something to attach to this existing dock for them to go.
I ended up doing some experimenting to see how low I can make the fans go without sacrificing print quality and came up with this profile that is significantly quieter. It prints a 22min flawless benchy despite lower fan speeds. Thought I'd share it in case anyone else wants to use it
I have been putting my K1 Max in my laundry room due to the jet-engine/vacuum cleaner sounds it makes when printing. I got annoyed having to move it when doing a load, so decided to try to quiet it down a bit so I can have it nearby in my office.
I used butyl sound dampening sheets on the side panels, but that only helped with vibration noise from the side fans. It helps, but not enough.
- Speed: 300 mm/s
- Acceleration: 12,000 mm/s²
- Max Fan: 40%
- Chamber Fan: Off
- Side Fan: 20%
Important: One thing to keep in mind is that if your minimum layer time (in cooling section) is too low your fans will run at 100% when your layers are less than this time, despite what you have fans set at in the profile. If you are printing a smaller model you might get some periods of high fan speed. Just adjust the min layer time for these instances. I have it set to 2 seconds, but 5 should be better for very small prints

I just had to share this with you guys. I'm finally growing shit better than I could buy at the dispensary for $500/ounce.
SugarCane by In-House (Slurricane X Platinum)
Smells like glue and berries, strong smell of hash.
Grown in 5gal DWC with Lotus nutes, CalMag, Si, Fish Shit, and Orca.
Only got an ounce from this plant, but I don't even care because of the quality. got clones of her so I'll be stocked all winter and spring with this glorious strain.
Here is how it looked in week 6: https://lemmy.world/post/9264237

My K1 Max had a bed leveling error and printed for a while with the nozzle pressed into the bed so filament couldn't come out, causing a bad clog.
I painstakingly stripped the machine down just to get access to the hot end, and the heatsink and heat break are completely fused. (yes I removed grub screw)
The throat seems to be able to spin within the rest of the heat break, I don't think that's normal but I'm used to enders and cr10.
What I've tried:
- mini-torch on heat sink, then tried to pull hard out
- Oven for 1hr at 200F
- Freezer for 1 hour, THEN torch on heat sink
- Heated the metal needle thing they provided, and stabbed that through the filament path
- Tried to heat and remove the nozzle, but it is also completely stuck
I reached out to Creality a week ago and they have not replied. The heat sink is not even available online, so I am dead in the water until they send me a new heatsink.
Does anyone have any other ideas???
UPDATE!!! (for those who have this in the future)
I finally got it! It took multiple cycles of putting it in my toaster oven at 450F for 20 minutes at a time.
I was able to get the nozzle removed after a couple cycles, which gave me hope.
I did two more cycles, trying to pull them apart each time. Finally it barely started to budge with lots of effort. I saw it was out about 0.5mm. I grabbed my torch and blasted that sucker right at the hole where the grub screw comes out from. Kept heating, pulling, heating pulling. Eventually it slid right out!
Here's the crazy part. There was 0 filament residue in there when I got it out. I have no idea what was locking it in place. If it simply burned away there would have been carbon residue at least. Both the heat break and heat sink were clean... It's almost like they JB welded it in place lol
I am so happy I wont be having to wait weeks for Creality to respond, then more weeks for them to ship a new heatsink. Going to use the spare hot-end that came with the printer and get this puppy printing again! Thanks again for the advice @dual_sport_dork
