OrcaSlicer distributes an aarch64 flatpak with their regular releases, but I'm unsure what version of OpenGL it depends on.

Any good alternatives to Bambulab printers?

absolutely, see other comments

Don’t want a printer that I habe to tinker with

nope, and this is why I have a P1S and not one of the alternatives (and the one time I did need to tinker, because my AMS' internal hub unit failed and needed replacing, Bambu CS handled it well and fairly quickly)

this commenter is awful, but I do have to appreciate the person who responded to them with "GPT2, calm down."

I don't see any way this is anything but a filament issue, it's not like your print head could print a layer after the layer on top of it...

fwiw, I've had similar issues with some multicolor filaments, I think sometimes they just aren't made quite right but still pass QA.

They also have one of the best reward programs for designers, and creating an account isn't difficult; I really don't see how this is an issue where links should be banned.

Plus this post isn't even a makerworld link, it's a hackaday link, so a URL filter wouldn't have done anything in this case anyways.

owning, and dealing with the regular issues of, a Sovol SV07 is what made me buy a P1S + AMS combo in the first place

It may have just been a one-off, but I hated my SV07 so much that I've sworn off Sovol for good (the SV07's constant issues are what pushed me to get a P1S, actually).

Big recommend to just jump straight to OrcaSlicer. It has Bambu Studio's much-improved-over-PrusaSlicer UI but with features ported in from PrusaSlicer and SuperSlicer and compatibility with non-Bambu printers.

Well happy belated birthday to me!

And I preordered within a week of the original announcement. The new old plaza is a bit of a gimmick, but still fun for nostalgia's sake.

This is fantastic. Is the file hosted anywhere?

Another OrcaSlicer user here. Started off with PrusaSlicer and switched over at a friend's recommendation, and honestly am so glad I did (it has a much nicer UI and some really neat features ported over from SuperSlicer).

These look great! Can we get a link to the design, please?

EDIT: nvm, found it!

Thanks, and good luck! In Orca, I set it to all walls fuzzy, 0.5mm between points, and 0.2mm depth, and I like the results.

Thanks for showing us this! I printed one with “fuzzy skin” and it is so cool (unfortunately doesn’t show up well in photos though).

SV06 Plus, SV07, and SV07 Plus all use the same nozzles. However, I think standard volcano nozzles would also work – I just haven't bothered to try since I bought a five-pack of the proprietary nozzles off AliExpress and they work perfectly fine.

Yes, adaptive cubic varies the density of the cubic structure to decrease filament usage while supposedly maintaining the same strength as normal cubic. And, in my own experience, gyroid always takes longer to print than adaptive cubic – sometimes it only adds a few minutes, but I’ve seen it add nearly half of the print time again for infill-heavy prints.

I just wish it didn’t take so much longer to print than adaptive cubic at the same infill percent.

The hell? I do not understand why anyone would remove the first of those comments, and the second is a bit abrasive but still not moderation-worthy, imo.

I really don’t understand the hate towards Hexbear – sure, some users may be problematically argumentative, but that seems to be true of many instances. Meanwhile, as a trans person, Hexbear was actually one of the first places I felt safe when I started looking for a reddit alternative, and, to me, that means a lot. I’m glad I eventually found Blahaj Zone (both the lemmy and hajkey instances), but Hexbear really does feel like a good, queer-friendly, solidly leftist space, which we need more of on the internet, imo.

Like, we may disagree with their politics at points, but I’ve seen conservative and neoliberal users from other instances being awful to Hexbear users far more often than the other way around. I also think it speaks heavily in favor of Hexbear that some of the anti-Hexbear comments on the previous meta thread were from transphobic users from other instances.

Hexbear leans meme-tankie but on the flipside they’re very supportive of queer people. I don’t agree with them on everything, but I don’t feel unwelcome there either, so I personally disagree with both defederation and the comparison to T_D.
