  • Ahhh, I knew it. A Man of Culture! Or something else, I'm not sure what though. I have threatened to get an old laptop and install slack on it for fun, but I seem to be too lazy to get it done.........

    You mirror my travels through the Linux distros. Red Hat and Mandrake, Slack, Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo, Suse, even Mint and now Fedora yet again. I've never bothered with setting up a server though, I just don't have the need or desire.

  • Have you spoken to your healthcare provider about Viagratm? It may be able to help with your issue. (Please seek immediate medical help with an erection lasting more than 4 hours).

  • And as repeatedly told and retold every year........

    And I'm using, let's see, (Goes into Settings to check): Fedora KDE Plasma 41. Meh, it works OK I guess. It's getting hard to tell the difference between distros anymore. And I've been doing this long enough that I just something that doesn't bother me for attention anymore.

  • Yeah, it's -11F/-24C right now and the humidistat is saying it's 22% right now. Usually, in the summer time humidity ranges from 50% to 75%. But I have stored filaments like PLA and even PETG open on a shelf without care for over a year. Even now, the boxes they are stored in are not air tight.

    I have never need to dry PLA and I do dry PETG occasionally if I really need that super clean print. Otherwise I just either manually remove the slight stringing of the PETG or I totally ignore it. I do keep a spool of TPU around and I do dry that before use. But it seems to holds up well for several weeks just hanging on the printer.

  • It's the number of walls you print that will determine just how long the box will hold the water in or out. I find 4 walls to be about as water tight as I need. But I'm not sealing anything valuable either.

    Edit to add: This would be an excellent need for that brick layer printing to be used. The offset layers would provide far better sealing than the standard layer method we commonly use.

  • Still got to have the money. And police departments need to have budget to replace equipment.

    I have been elected to a city council several times and have gone over police budgets and it was no easier for the police to get money replace a squad car or get any of the "goodies" you think are so easy to them to get. There is only so much money to be had in any city budget.

  • That's unlikely. You need to get grants from the federal government, chiefly the DHS, to get money to buy major equipment. There ain't anymore federal grants remember. Small volunteer, (70% of all fire depts in the US), services are especially reliant on those grants to replace major assets.

    Source: Been on committees to spec and buy ambulances and fire trucks and turnout gear. Even boots and gloves sometimes.

  • I would not trust Crealty. They have a long ways to go to get over the "We don't care about customers" And the "We got your money, now get out of here. You bother me kid" mentality. They've sold too much junk for too long.

  • The X smart 3 is no longer available. Much to my sadness, I was going to buy one and it's no longer available. Not surprising due to most consumers wanting bigger and bigger printers.

    There are really only choices in this size range any more that are actually decent. There are a couple of 'build it yourself' models out there, but most won't want to be bothered to do so. So the A1 Mini and the Prusa Mini are about it. It would be nice if someone else stepped up an made a good budget 1803 sized printer.

    And yes, sadly I did end up with the Bambu Mini.

  • Think of it as a way to say you have no clue how to communicate correctly through the written word. By the time I'm forced to wade through your lack of punctuation, misspellings and the autocorrect blunders and the stupid emojis to decipher what you REALLY meant, I already have equated your IQ to be around the range of my old orange tabby cat.

    If you send me a text, I will consider it of such low priority that I might get back to you in a week or so.
