Oh crikey - I def didn’t drink the flavor-aid. I bought the printer, I’m using it stock with BS to start with and so far it seems acceptable to me. I loved orca and am very willing to make environment changes the moment this setup doesn’t meet my needs. I’m just pleasantly surprised that it’s not the all-but-guaranteed shit show the transition was made out to be.

For a philistine member of the proletariat like me - just wanting to fix shit that’s broken or bust out practical shit - it fits the bill for me. It’s not a McLaren, I bought the Hyundai.

Same page with local LAN mode and non-Bambu filaments. I want the outcome not the process.

Thanks! I understand that by introducing the AMS (which I may like to do) I take the hardware’s necessary firmware to a point of excluding Orca. On a stock standard print with a few basic edits I was pleasantly surprised by Bambu. If the use case arises I’ll downgrade the firmware and run orca but for my current purposes I think this lego-style ui will fit most of my use-cases.

Hey friend! I was genuinely surprised when there was a seemingly prevailing preference between the two stables. I had never used 3D printers before and I was blown away by how easy the ender was to use. No shade at all.

I was really gobsmacked to experience the marked increase in built in “nice to have”/“QA features that I hadn’t experienced the first time round. I had no reason to upgrade from the ender based on my experience. It was no longer available to me and I had to buy my own and as a result of said research - the A1 has really impressed me.

Horses for courses. If I hadn’t now used the A1, I’d have no reason to be discontent.

I’m sure another model will come along at some point that makes me want to jump up another level.

In all honesty, the ender was great, made sense, I was learning it and it did what I expected and wanted… the difference is I’ve learned there is more available.

No complaints about the ender at all - I just realised, through a transition that wasn’t by choice, that there was something (on initial impression) that outclasses it.

If I hadn’t lost the ender, I may never have looked at something else.

It’s 10 months til the song comes back but in my head now I have “Ten leopards leaping” 🎶🎄

And just like that, the leopards jumped at MY face!

Did he actually say it? D’oh! I was umming and ahhing as to whether he did. Stoopid Flanders.

You’re not wrong and your frustration is clear. I think a lot of people have pinned their hopes on the contents of the files being so heinous that they will be the one thing that can dethrone trump and alienate him from his base. I’m not sure they’re right but I can’t fault folks for seeking something to keep their hope alive.

Bart has to endure all these unfortunate treatments that make him appear super dorky. Shoes to fix his posture or something, scalp goo which makes his hair flat with a middle part, some inhaler makes him sound like Jerry Lewis and glasses too I think. In this scene his shoes go flying off (I think in a celebratory gesture as he gets to end the treatments) and come flying into the Flanders’ living room. Ned asks the boys “did anyone pray for giant shoes?” One of them pipes up excitedly “I did!!” To which Ned is very chirpily like “well ok then!” And they just keep on doing what they’re doing.

In other news: water is wet

Sorry, that’s a total smartass dick comment, just kinda gettin in the bandwagon and voicing my existing frustration.

Loving all the Easter eggs in this. Bob Loblaw’s Law Blog, rats drinking and playing darts, beaker, my little pony tattoo, kpop demon hunters jacket, other guy up the tree, kid trapped in the window, all 50% off signs now 50% off… the detail is wild and I’m here for it - bet there’s heaps more too.

Oh, they hopped out of it… Good grief.

Nice juxtaposition - the pride hearts on the car in the background. Part of the profiling orders one assumes.

Really going for that Nobel Peace Prize. When he doesn’t get one next year, his board will create their own lifetime achievement award to bestow upon him which will only ever be given out once which makes it way more special and meaningful than an annual scandi prize. Basically the ceremony Tom Cruise got for his scientology medal. It’ll be that but more gaudy.

Mark Levin is already in… they’re allowed 1.

This is genuinely one of the most left-field shower thoughts I’ve come across. So often I can relate to these posts - I read it and think… “yeah, I see that”. This one truly has me going “huh… wtf”.

Well done bud, this is terrific.

It’s my child against your child. The winner will be showered with praise; the loser will be mocked and taunted until my throat is sore!

Meddlesome too!

Bread and butter. Epitome!

Are they doing that thing where they’re publicly claiming to have been invited even though they have not, and forcing the US to now either refute that claim in public, or far more likely just go along with it and allow them to muscle their way in? It works the other way round too where the other party is hesitant but you announce they’ve accepted the invitation and frame it in such a way that it is all but impossible for them to back out without losing face.

Sorry man, that’s freaky. Dude sounds unhinged. What info do you have on him from Facebook? The info he says he has on you - how much did he actually prove by stating it? Could be that he just got the minimum info and is making the most of it to make it sound like he knows a lot more.

When you spoke to him, what kind of accent did he have? Did he sound local?

Can I ask how you know it was him calling your wife? How were you guys able to block his number without being able to view it?
