I don’t think so. It looks like it lacks ABL, and the time savings from a core XY with ABL or auto first layer are MASSIVE. Also your print quality increases exponentially.

Take a look at the FlashForge 5M if you want a budget auto first layer printer, or the Qidi line for a slightly more robust printer (but needs more manual intervention).

And if you’d like to focus on printing and not tinkering forever, get a Bambu. Any of them.

Avoid creality.

Qidi has been fantastic for me. Amazing customer support. They’ve sent replacement parts as well.

For screenshots look at Greenshot.

It’s not a death trap it’s just not to code. Possible fire risk? Sure. But there’s a lot of things that are too code that are fire risk as well.

Mainly it needs a disclaimer that it’s not to code for the US and for low voltage projects only.

Devils advocate here - you do need to print these to make them dangerous. They’re not items that are being given to children without parent consent.

And creality won’t support you if you buy their printer anyway!

Wow. Thats very impressive!

I’ve heard nothing but trouble from the K1M. Thats what pushed me towards a Qidi Xmax 3, I wanted that build volume. Still, my next printer will be Bambu.

Rustdesk works great, and it’s self hosted.

How does it have a large attack surface? I thought being immutable reduced the surface.

You’re going to love Bazzite.

Sonos is great but it’s just a few dollars more for an even better device with more flexibility (if you’re starting fresh).

I started with a conbee which led to a lot of issues.

Definitely start with a beefy zigbee coordinator. I like the Ukrainian made SLZB-06. It can be USB or networked. I prefer networked, that way I can move it to a more central location in the house and keep my HA running as a VM in the basement.

Ah yes. I’m on X11 due to Nvidia and some remote applications for the foreseeable future.

It’s not that bad. I run Davinci resolve in a Distrobox.

Edit: and when I say it’s not that bad it’s basically flawless

I feel like every time I blink there’s a better and easier way to do things.

If this could connect to Oogabooga for LLM control, that would be pretty cool.

Use home assistant.

I love it, it works. Running a server is super easy and the speed is quite nice for a free piece of software.

They apologized and admitted that it was a dumb thing to do.
