Then like 2 months later the firmware news hits

[winged spire]

theyve been pulling this shit since day 1

X1C was suppose to reach EOL in may this year

[fossil frost]

if only the firmware was just marlin or klipper, with a fancy UI for their screens... with a few modifications that they dont feed back into the open source community... and if only you could just flash the boards with standard marlin or klipper and be released from all this locked in bullshit 🙂

[gilded quest]

Not that I had any open source expectations with Bambu tho. I knew what I was buying into. Of course only shortly after I pull the trigger the community implodes 😅

I love the printer however. The results and ease of use speak for themselves

But not sure I would recommend it to anyone now

[winged spire]

Prusa has been the goat for 15 years now

the only thing bambu does better than prusa is the multi material units with are heavily "inspired" by prusa's own designs

design wise the AMS lite is the same as the MMU1

they just put the motors on a seperate stand instead of the top of the frame

and now that every other company is working on their own AMS bambu wont have a lead very soon

I almost preordered the elegoo centari, looks like a fantastic printer

[winged spire]

The centauri carbon is 299$

dont love the hardened steel nozzle but ill survive

[rare otter]

Why are 3rd party ps3 controllers so much better than the official ones

[winged spire]

printing the stand to my shuttle now

After that I need to redo my starship

hopefully a block 2 ship this time

[tiny halo]

Just look at Xbox

[rare otter]

Xbox controllers have been peak since 2005

[tiny halo]

Yes, but there are awesome 3rd party controllers, even better than Xbox

[rare otter]

I bet. But are they for a cheap price?

[winged spire]

got some better silver for it

probably even the same stuff as the one in that image

I wanna do this one but the files are like 50$

[rare otter]

Id use that for its unintended purpose

[winged spire]

k

[rare otter]

If you know. You know

[frail cipher]

guys, quick question, do y'all know Elg or North Bayou??
like monitor arms and such?

[gilded quest]

Which I uhhh.....didn't buy

I regret not getting the AMS bundle

People on reddit said to do it if you're in the fence. Should have listened

Everyone I asked said "you'll regret not getting it, but won't regret getting it"

[winged spire]

Buh

I’m going to get the MMU3 once I upgrade my mk4 to a core one

500$ to turn my bed slinger into a coreXY with proper linear rails is a good deal

[gilded quest]

Non bundle shipped fasted and it was just a spendy time for me so non ams made sense but in hindsight I should have ponied up and waited a little longer

[winged spire]

I mean realistically how many multi color things are you doing?

Would be doing

[gilded quest]

Not so much for multicolor, just makes it easier to switch materials, switch color between prints, and if a spool runs out

Some multicolor things would be nice

[winged spire]

Fair that is helpful

There’s this product I’ve been eyeing for my farm

It does exactly that independently from the printer

[gilded quest]

That's was my logic when I ordered: I don't need multicolor
And after receiving it, I learned AMS has a lot of uses beyond multicolor

[winged spire]

You load 2 5kg spools and it automatically loads the next when it runs out

[gilded quest]

At least I can just add it in

[fossil frost]

only thing i would find myself using MMU for would be PVA support, so i would never have to ever remove support material ever again

[gilded quest]

It's not like I had to buy an AMS compatible sku or anything

[winged spire]

Once you have good support settings PVA is largely a waste of money

[gilded quest]

Just lose out on bundle pricing

[gilded quest]

Is it correct that PETG and PLA don't stick to each other

[winged spire]

I really want a prusa XL so I can do real multi material

[gilded quest]

So I can use one as support?

[winged spire]

Yeah

[gilded quest]

Word. That would be useful

[fossil frost]

PVA is even better, because you just throw some water on it, and it disolves

[winged spire]

Different temps though, so on a single toolhead printer it’s funky

[gilded quest]

Isn't that stuff expensive

[tiny halo]

Oh yeah

[winged spire]

Yeah PVA runs like 40-50$ a kilo

[gilded quest]

Sheeeeesh

[tiny halo]

What was that citric acid dissolving material?

[winged spire]

Just spend a bit tuning your supports and you won’t have any issues

[fossil frost]

yes, but if you are paying for a printer and paying for multi material printing too, its not THAT expensive compared to every other part of the hobby/job

[tiny halo]

H*

Iirc

[winged spire]

9/10 times I literally don’t spend any time removing supports because they pop off when I take the print off the bed

[gilded quest]

I wanna print abs

But I need to get a proper ventilation system

[tiny halo]

Nice

[winged spire]

ASA better 😈

[gilded quest]

Are you buying filament for me?

[tiny halo]

It’s not that bad, open a window and don’t be in that room

[fossil frost]

mine are usually fused to it, like they were forged

[winged spire]

I’m really glad manufacturers are actually starting to make more ASA

less than like 5 years ago you couldn’t really get ASA outside like 5 colors

[fossil frost]

many are labelling ABS as ASA too

[sharp notch]

I have a relative traveling to Indonesia in a few weeks. If I buy the Intel Arc B580 from them while they're in the U.S., will I still have to pay taxes or import duties when they bring it back? The GPU costs $250 in the U.S. but $300 in Indonesia.

[winged spire]

You could really only get like black, white, blue, natural

[gilded quest]

Is $50 worth it to not deal with customs/import duties

[winged spire]

It costs more than 50$ to ship something between the 2 lol

[sharp notch]

My question is, will a GPU be taxed with custom/import duties??

like

[gilded quest]

I'm not sure. I'm not Indonesian

[winged spire]

No

[sharp notch]

since its not a "business" retailer or something

[winged spire]

In the US you’re only charged customs fees on stuff over 800$

Oh

[gilded quest]

They're buying in the US and taking back to Indonesia

[winged spire]

Yeah idk check Indonesian import laws

[gilded quest]

I don't know how Indonesian customs works

This is an actual case for Google

[warm path]

Anyway to contact mods in here? Someone in here is Dming me and trying to buy my account

[winged spire]

My guess is you’ll probably be charged, most countries charge import fees on stuff much cheaper than in the US

[sharp notch]

So, does that mean I can save $50 just like that?

[winged spire]

Like the threshold is usually much lower than the US’

[gilded quest]

If any of the mods have their DMs open just do it... promise they don't bite

[winged spire]

I read it wrong, if you’re shipping from the US TO Indonesia you’ll have to look into Indonesia tax law

Customs law

[sharp notch]

Ok thank you

[gilded quest]

I'm gonna flat out say just buy it in Indonesia
Between customs uncertainty & the fact it's not super easy to get a B580 for $250 in the US, if you can get it in Indonesia now for $300, just do it

Or pick a more competitive card at $300 if they exist

However I'm assuming RTX 4060 is more than $300 there

[sharp notch]

4060 is like 350ish

[fossil frost]

im gonna say for me personally... $50 wouldnt be worth the hassle or the wait, at all... but thats me

[gilded quest]

Not worth it at all

[fossil frost]

and thats if you even do save the $50, and dont end up spending $100 on import fees/taxes/shipping

for carbon bicycle wheels for racing... its worth it, because you can get a £1200 set of wheels for £300 from china, and pay £120 in fees/taxes... saving almost £800, is well worth the hassle and wait 😄

[winged spire]

“Trip to mars” lol right

[fossil frost]

otherwise known as a very elaborate self-death

[winged spire]

People doing march madness picks are definitely well known to be good enough shape/smart enough to do the most challenging exploration mission in history

[winged spire]

I’d be down to die on mars

One way trip is fine with me, gimme an internet connection and I’d be chillin

[fossil frost]

if musk has such confidence in his rocket... he should get on it himself

thats what real explorers have always done... they get on their own boat

[tiny halo]

Uhm, delete or edit that message, otherwise I could do a finger slip and ping mods (I won’t, but you are breaking the rules)

[hoary obsidian]

heya!

[winged spire]

TCP doesn’t work with latencies that High, otherwise you definitely could access the normal internet from mars

[tiny halo]

Sup

[hoary obsidian]

I'm in pain hbu

[tiny halo]

I’m fine, vibing with light mode at 0am

[winged spire]

He’s not an explorer

[hoary obsidian]

nice

[winged spire]

His name is on the door

[tiny halo]

What’s your issue

[versed hedge]

any ideas on what i should put on my TI-Nspire CX Gen 1? (so not the CX II)

[hoary obsidian]

my pc is doing weird stuff and idk what to do about it and it has been bugging me for weeks

[tiny halo]

What sorts of weird stuff

[hoary obsidian]

so like whenever I am just using my pc the screen will randomly freeze on random parts of the screen whilst everything else works fine

[fossil frost]

then he needs to stop pretending its him, and make it more apparent that its everyone else who works there, becuase he does make it seem that this is all down to him.. the funding and marketing is down to him, so he needs to accept that and accept that the actual work is done by others, and stop pretending he has anything else to do with it

[tiny halo]

Does this happen when you run intensive applications

[hoary obsidian]

no!!

[fossil frost]

and mars is his idea, mars is his vision... he IS the explorer in this case... he needs to grow a pair and get on his own ship

[hoary obsidian]

actually quite the opposite

it happens when I'm basically doing nothing

[fossil frost]

have you under-volted your cpu?

[hoary obsidian]

I don't think so-?

[winged spire]

He’s a man baby

[tiny halo]

Try reinstalling the graphics drivers, if that doesn’t work, reinstall windows, after that , Linux. Seriously, linux is user friendly

[hoary obsidian]

I tried both

[fossil frost]

overclocked it or done any auto-oc or anything like that?

[hoary obsidian]

heh

[winged spire]

What do you expect from the son of a child slave mine owner

[tiny halo]

Uh oh

[hoary obsidian]

I haven't touched anything

[fossil frost]

just checking, because what you are describing is a common result of under-volting too far

[hoary obsidian]

I think a windows update or a graphics driver update got messed up idek bro

[tiny halo]

Reinstall drivers or windows

[hoary obsidian]

did both but uhm maybe the updates are faulty

I don't think so

[tiny halo]

Try windows ltsc, or Linux

[hoary obsidian]

oh, uh how can I check that

[fossil frost]

its a thing you will have gone out of your way to do, you would know if you have gone into the bios, or into the gpu/cpu dashboard within windows and changed those settings

[hoary obsidian]

I really don't want Linux, it's kind of inconvenient for me

[versed hedge]

any ideas on what i should put on my TI-Nspire CX Gen 1? (so not the CX II)

[hoary obsidian]

yeah no I didn't do anything

[tiny halo]

It isn’t, have you tried it out

[hoary obsidian]

yeah at school

[tiny halo]

Also clear cmos, test if it’s more stable without xmp

[tiny halo]

Wrong distribution

[hoary obsidian]

clear what 😭😭😭

[tiny halo]

Hm, taking out the cr20?? Coin and resetting the bios settings

[hoary obsidian]

oh U mean the bios battery?

[fossil frost]

when did this start exactly?

[tiny halo]

Yeah

[hoary obsidian]

after I did a windows update

I tried going back to previous updates as well

[tiny halo]

#tech-chat-1 message

[hoary obsidian]

smth messed up my pc and idk what

[hoary obsidian]

yeah

not rlly everything

[fossil frost]

rolling back the update undoes everything the update did, so, did it do it any time, even once, before the update?

[hoary obsidian]

just the situation

[hoary obsidian]

no before the update it was fine

just that one random day it was doing this

[tiny halo]

Oh yeah I know this issue

So I had this before switching to Linux

What you can do to temporarily fix it is to press alt+tab twice to “refresh the window”

@hoary obsidian

[hoary obsidian]

I don't want temp stuff 😭😭😭

it's been bothering me for ages and I need a solution

my brain has been going coocoo over this

[tiny halo]

Well it’s a quick fix, and doesn’t bother you much

[hoary obsidian]

and I really don't wanna spend money 😭😭

[tiny halo]

You have two choices, try windows ltsc, or use a good Linux distribution

[hoary obsidian]

great

[fossil frost]

we are trying to help with the limited info we have, but, we are not professional tech support here to fix your system for you

[hoary obsidian]

nah it's okay, I just wanted to see what U guys would say

I'm just stuck

[fossil frost]

the next time it crashes, reboot.. go into event viewer, and look for what errors are logged just before windows crashed

[hoary obsidian]

crashes?

[fossil frost]

and then start searching for keywords from within those errors

[hoary obsidian]

it doesn't crash

it just does a screen thingy

[fossil frost]

crash/has issues

[hoary obsidian]

ight

[tiny halo]

It fixes by switching tabs

[hoary obsidian]

yeah!

exactly

I'm prob gonna take it to a guy ig

[tiny halo]

No

Don’t let someone get paid due to software issue

[hoary obsidian]

okay well I don't have many options left 😭

ima try running back some updates see what happens

[fossil frost]

tbh, i would post on the forums first, or one of many other 100s of options before paying someone

[tiny halo]

that you're a whitename who will soon be banned, because you talk a lot of shit?

Ah, yes, this makes sense. Don't worry though; we have a department that audit's the auditors.

[manic torrent]

"just the internet" - and other lies you can tell yourself

no I think the foot is the correct foot.

"lol it was just a prank bro" isn't an excuse

Next you'll say "I was only pretending"

You haven't offended me, you entirely misunderstand

I'm not sure that you do.

I believe that you think you do.

[jaunty compass]

wait a second linus didn't have a filament dryer?

[vapid smelt]

thats what the 2000+watts of servers and pcs are for

[jaunty compass]

[livid field]

[winged spire]

most people dont tbf

he isnt exactly a 3d printer enthusiest

[jaunty compass]

It's a pretty basic accessory that you kinda need unless you want to be bed drying constantly

[winged spire]

you absolutely do NOT need a filament drier lol

9/10 people use PLA or PETG for 100% of their printing ever

neither of those need a filament drier even if stored out in open air

I have like a 8.5 year old PLA spool that has been open the whole time and I literally live in a swamp

[vapid smelt]

most people hvac system can control humidity

[long briar]

PLA benefits from filament dryer, but if you just toss it into a sealed bin with the silica packet that'll be enough to have the filament last

[vapid smelt]

ez

[jaunty compass]

About half of the pla I've ever bought has shipped too wet to reliably use

[long briar]

should give context to the kind of person he us

[winged spire]

you must be buying some shit ass filament loi

or your setings just suck

[long briar]

Shipped too wet is a new one

[jaunty compass]

My settings are fine. Everything works great after I dry it

[manic torrent]

oh, I know. I mean, it's always good to have receipts though.

[long briar]

What printer?

[winged spire]

this time 2 years ago I was doing roughly 1000 kilos a year worth of PLAA

well, 800 kilos of PLA 200 PETG

[jaunty compass]

I have two Qidi q1 pros and a sidewinder x3 plus

[vapid smelt]

what room do you print in?

[jaunty compass]

It doesn't help I live in a very humid area

[winged spire]

I live in a swamp

[jaunty compass]

This area used to be a swamp but it's still very wet

[winged spire]

I was using a guest room

[vapid smelt]

oh so you dont have 1k kg worth of micro plastic in you 😦

[jaunty compass]

I don't know what else would cause steam to shoot out of the nozzle

[long briar]

how the balls

[winged spire]

what brand

[jaunty compass]

If your filament is too wet that happens

[long briar]

no I know, I meant... out of the package?

[jaunty compass]

Yeah

[long briar]

like how

[jaunty compass]

Poor storage conditions in the warehouse or factory

[long briar]

I've run overture and polyterra for the most part, they've been fine

[winged spire]

overture is polymaker btw

[jaunty compass]

It was some sunlu rebadge, I know their filament is not good

[winged spire]

original company no longer exists

[jaunty compass]

I've had no problems with the overture filament I've bought

[winged spire]

and you kept buying it..?

[vapid smelt]

dont you live in asia?

[jaunty compass]

No, I bought it in bulk

[jaunty compass]

No

[long briar]

oh Sunlu

[jaunty compass]

Southern U.S.

[jaunty compass]

I go through a lot of filament prototyping so I try to keep it on the budget end of filaments which means generally it's not the greatest stuff

[long briar]

Polyterra too brittle

[jaunty compass]

I didn't buy that particular brand of filament again but I'm sure half the shit I've bought is a sunlu rebadge

[long briar]

Overture is quite sticky

[winged spire]

I live in nola

[long briar]

I've tried sunlu, it sucked

[winged spire]

lol, doestn get more humid than that, I leave ALL of my pla and PETG in open air often with the window open

[long briar]

there's also Canadian Filaments

[winged spire]

Esun works great

[long briar]

tried their pumpkin spice filament

jammed up every printer

[winged spire]

IIIDMAX is my goto bulk supplier

11$ per kilo if you buy 20+ kilos at a time

not printing nearly as much as I did now that I moved to college

thats why I stopped

once I get a bigger apartment ill have a designated print room so I can expand further

something like this

actually

I assume thats US based stock?

that looks more expensive per printer than if I were to just buy 10 assembled mk4s

[vapid smelt]

printing that many guns?

[jaunty compass]

[winged spire]

💀 not for this server,,

I was doing contract work with local companies

my biggest suggestion for making money 3d printing is do NOT target consumers.. they fucking suck

[jaunty compass]

the qidi q1 pro is a pretty sweet printer though, i got a great deal on my pair of them

[patent violet]

Isn't it easier at some point to get one of those multi headed printers that runs on a massive table

I'm pretty sure there was actually something that Texas instruments studied about this

[winged spire]

no

[patent violet]

It comes down to volume

[patent violet]

And modularity

[winged spire]

like the elegoo orange storm? definitely not

[patent violet]

With those massive tables you can add a bunch of heads or remove them

No I'm talking professional tables

[winged spire]

like what printer

[jaunty compass]

I thought they meant a toolchanger or something

[winged spire]

10 MK4S' will outpace basically any industrial printers for the same cost

[patent violet]

Why is industrial anything hard to find on Google anymore

[jaunty compass]

google is worthless at this point

[patent violet]

No that's not what I'm talking about these are the ones that have really long tables that can go basically across your entire room or garage and then they have multiple crane like attachments with multiple extruders on them and they will be able to produce multiple things at once or produce one thing with multiple materials at once and some of them can actually make angles or even turn upside down

[winged spire]

stratasys is the industrial 3d printing company

[patent violet]

Their entirely modular units

I'm trying to find one of the companies I was looking at last year

[winged spire]

can you show any pictures? lol

[patent violet]

If Google would stop being fucking shit

You know those panels with slits in them that you would use with routers or other tools in a workshop

They basically attached to that

[winged spire]

my short answer is no because ive been to like half a dozen farms and none of them use anything like that

[patent violet]

Fuck you Google

[winged spire]

im very confused

are you just talking about IDEX?

[patent violet]

Take one of these and make it very long

And you know the cranes they use at shipping ports that kind of claw around everything

Put a couple of those on it

[winged spire]

the prusa AFS?

[patent violet]

No it's not of any brand I know of else I would have found it by now. I do remember where I actually saw it though

It was Texas A&M

[winged spire]

the prusa AFS is pretty close to as perfectly space efficent a print farm can get

[patent violet]

But you basically had a bunch of these

Attached to the table

And the table was actually quite large and you could have multiple prints going or just one really large print with multiple materials being printed in multiple places consecutively

[winged spire]

https://youtu.be/gA_pred4CBI

[patent violet]

And it was some really wild shit and I remember asking how much it was

[winged spire]

this is what the LARGE print farms look like

and obviously the many prusa tours

[patent violet]

See that's a print farm no this is just one printer

It even had sort of the kind of turning abilities they use for coal and grain bucket trains to dump shit

This allowed it to rotate and print from bottom down

But the whole thing was modular and it only costed $21K or something like that

[vapid smelt]

@winged spire when will you get a Mimaki 3DGD-1800

[patent violet]

https://youtube.com/shorts/jepwiKy3WZY?si=iMU4_W55BTvlA8BX
It was basically this for the rotation

This is going to really annoy me until I try to go to sleep and realize what the brand was

[winged spire]

lol

[patent violet]

I already know it

I'm due for one of those moments...

hi guys...

[tiny halo]

Hello

[unreal parrot]

[winged spire]

No

White parts are not harder to make

[tiny halo]

Less demand

[winged spire]

That’s the answer

It’s a niche

[tiny halo]

It’s probably a few bucks more expensive

[winged spire]

No

You just get white colorant for your pellets

Changing the color of your injection molded ABS is arbitrary

[lucid adder]

y'all think carti gonna drop tonight

yea by the time I saw it

it wasn't red

[long briar]

still cool

[tiny halo]

Looks like a Samsung camera

[winged spire]

It’s not

And it doesn’t

[long briar]

oh bruh I could've gotten it

;-;

oh well wait for next year ig

[winged spire]

Next year?

Is there another one next year?

[long briar]

There's one every year

[winged spire]

The last one was 2022

Last total one atleast

[long briar]

o weird

it's not every year idk then

[winged spire]

Just a coincidence it’s march

[long briar]

yeah

and in the next year

[winged spire]

The last total lunar eclipse anywhere was November 2022

[long briar]

yeah shocking

oh it wouldn't've have mattered

according to reddit apparently it was cloudy earlier

so nobody saw anything anyways

[winged spire]

Cloudy here too but it cleared up definitely well enough for a zoom camera/telezcoe

Telescope

[long briar]

yeah I definitely could've caught it at some point earlier

but I was too busy looking for iem cables so oops

this is one of the more clear pictures I've ever gotten of the moon

but it means I do need to use a tripod

I freehanded the one earlier

[winged spire]

this is one of my better normal photos

[long briar]

I'd have to assume either a 600mm or a telescope?

[long briar]

that's damn sharp

[winged spire]

2000mm'

well, 4.3-357mm f/2.8-6.5

24-2000mm equivlenet

its just a P900

I really want to get a P1100 that justd came out

im poor

[long briar]

that's acc cool

half inch sensor goes crazy

[winged spire]

yeah he smol

the p1100 does 24-3000

125x

[long briar]

1.5k cad

[winged spire]

16MP, 1/2.3" BUUT it can do 4k30

[long briar]

that's kinda steep

[winged spire]

Yeah definitely

youre not really gonna get a DLSR equivalent cheaper though

[long briar]

yeah

that's the issue - it's kind of a niche product to me

[winged spire]

for sure

[long briar]

the only use I'd have for it is super long range photography which would either be wildlife which I don't do, or moon which really doesn't matter much to me

[winged spire]

I do lots of rocket photography

[long briar]

ahh so that'd work out for you then

[winged spire]

even things im right next to need a zoom lense lmao

[long briar]

yeah that stuff is cool

[winged spire]

it fucking SUCKS at any time without good light

The flash works well, but it almost has a film grain effect lol

it legit looks like proper 35mm

[long briar]

small sensors are like that unfortunately, but apsc/ff for hyperzooms are either impossible to find, incredibly expensive, or bad quality

like if I'm doing any professional shots (I haven't done so in ages) I'd just rent like an R5 and 24-105 f2.8

[winged spire]

Im considering renting some obnoxious zoom setup for a future starship launch

one of those fuckin naval canon sized lenses lol

[long briar]

yeah thing with that is uh

special order

after you order it'll still take months to years for them to build

[rigid tartan]

Duct tape camera to telescope, problem solved :D

[south flower]

hi!

[crystal flare]

i had an idea for an MMORPG that could revitalize the MMO Genre, the game would be open source, and incorporate AI for the non player characters with dynamic greetings and speech to make the world feel alive, and since it's open source that means full limitless character customization if you can make the model and program animations for it, you can use it as your avatar, granted as long as it's within the rules of the game! and i'd keep gameplay elements simple there are 6 atributes (water, earth, fire, air, light, and darkness) and like 12 classes to choose form, but you could build you build however you want! there'd be quests, and monsters and even critters to fight! the world would have diverse ecosystems like mountains, islands, swamps, plains, forests, deserts, etc.

[fossil frost]

the problem with MMO's isnt the ideas... its the cost.. they are incredibly expensive to run, in both terms of servers, but development too.. they are incredibly difficult to make secure, and responsive, and competitive without rampant cheating

all that stuff costs a LOT of money

Anyone hyped for the new skate game?

But im never gonna do this process again, it's so annoying

[fossil frost]

Ninite will do a lot of that work for you, but not all. https://ninite.com/

I wanted to recreate a recovery partition so the laptop could be reset by a new owner as if it were new with the preinstalled drivers etc and go through the windows setup as if it were out ofthe box.

I’m thinking that this computer comes with ram that is essentially as Linus like to call E waste. Does anybody have one of the computers to tell me what the ram situation is on this computer? https://a.co/d/8bllH9m

Computer is gonna be shipped any day now and I’d like for it to have everything it needs when it gets here.

[raven grove]

Aint nobody clicking that Link

[raven elbow]

I mean, there was some kind of mod or whatever earlier like yesterday that opened up the link that’s understandable though it is the sky tech blaze for on Amazon with a 9070 XT

But I am more specifically asking if anybody has that computer and can tell me the ram situation. The picture seems to suggest it has two 8 sticks of ram

Since you’re here though, maybe you can tell me what ram would be most appropriate for this rig?

[raven grove]

🤷‍♂️

[quaint zephyr]

starlink is pretty goated damnn!

[harsh quartz]

Definitely not goated. It’s decent though

[fossil frost]

got turned down for a job today because i "seemed too enthusiastic"... ive been been accused of a lot of things.. but never ever been accused of being too enthusiastic before 😄

[vapid smelt]

People in the UK can't be enthusiastic that's super suspicious

[fossil frost]

yeah, i dont get it, i cant even pinpoint the part of the interview they could possibly have been talking about

[winged spire]

By far the greatest ever consumer satilite internet company

[harsh quartz]

By the metrics of speed sure. But also not a great overall company

[blissful coral]

Damn that was a good launch, been awhile since I've been able to catch one live

[winged spire]

by metrics of "satellite internet provided by the company that does satellite internet"

[harsh quartz]

I love having the sky filled with hundreds of tiny satellites

[quaint zephyr]

400mbs and ping in the teens? while living in the middle of damn nowhere

id say thats hella goated

[harsh quartz]

Nop

[quaint zephyr]

you’re just negative, there isnt any other solution that compares

[winged spire]

nobody asked you

[harsh quartz]

Don’t like the company 🤷‍♂️

[fossil frost]

"greatest of all time", all time hasnt happened yet, they are 1 of 2-3 providers of satellite service, since its such a new type of service.. they are only any good, because they were the first... so "goat" is a stupid term. "good" is fine though

[harsh quartz]

It’s an open discourse, deal with it

[quaint zephyr]

congratulations that has nothing to do with the service provided

[winged spire]

"I dont like the satellites that ive never seen before and have never nor wiill ever effect me"

[harsh quartz]

Yeah but saying the company is goated DOES pertain to the company

[quaint zephyr]

nothing will compare to it tho

[harsh quartz]

What a stupid take that no one is saying

[winged spire]

you just did

[fossil frost]

are you sure about that?

[quaint zephyr]

in the satellite world anyways

[winged spire]

one web dishes cost 5 figures

yes, infact nothing compares to starlink

[harsh quartz]

If a meteorite hits today, yeah, your right

[quaint zephyr]

i mean if you can think of any other companies that have the money and space program to account for more than 50% of earths satellites

then sure

[harsh quartz]

This is not a good thing btw

[fossil frost]

so, time isnt a thing? the progression of technology isnt a thing? nothing CURRENTLY compares to starlink, for satellite internet... for general internet connections, they are somewhat mid-field, but satellite, they are the best of 3. 2 of those 3 only just came into existence recently, long after starlink started. but yeah, nobody else is trying, nobody else is driving their costs down, and nobody else ever will... even though thats quite a common theme in all of technology

[winged spire]

explain to me how exactly its a bad thing

please, in detail how starlink spesifically is bad

"grrr satellite bad" isnt a real opinion

[quaint zephyr]

that or “grrr i dont like elon musk”

[harsh quartz]

Throwing up 7000 satellites in 6 years is wild, the risk of collision starting a cascade affect only goes up with the increased number and they’re increasing rapidly

[quaint zephyr]

you think they dont think about that?

[fossil frost]

the number of satellites is actually making it quite difficult for ground observations of space now, they are limiting the times that its possible to do those observations... so yes, its directly negatively affecting certain science from being done. but thats not just starlink, thats the shear number of satellites and general space junk that exists in general

[quaint zephyr]

💀 😭

[winged spire]

thats fair, but the benfiit far out weighs those issues which are rapidly improving

[harsh quartz]

Also, yeah, fuck him, and the company that he’s used for political gain, but that’s a different argument

[quaint zephyr]

see there it is

[fossil frost]

given recent history, where instead of controlling their de-orbit, they just let them fall out of the sky and didnt give a shit at all... i think they thought about it, and didnt care

[winged spire]

what

what are you even talking about

[harsh quartz]

You say that like I hid it, I started this convo by saying I don’t like the company as a whole

[winged spire]

the light reflected from the sats to earth has been reduced by %95+ over the past few years

[gilded quest]

I don't like #public-chat as a whole

[winged spire]

they intentionally design the orbits to avoid major observatories

[winged spire]

tech chat is infinitely worse

[fossil frost]

then why is it possible to see them, with your eyes when you have a clear sky and a moonless night

[gilded quest]

That is an opinion you are allowed to have

[bitter harbor]

1 yes. 2 is a lot better

[quaint zephyr]

you can see more than just starlink sats

[harsh quartz]

It sure is an opinion of all time

[winged spire]

i dont think ive literally ever used tech chat 2

[cedar pebble]

Starlink satellites use fpgas so they’re automatically cool 🗿

[harsh quartz]

Yes. But there’s 7000 of them. And they’re increasing that to 42000

[quaint zephyr]

thank god

better internet for me

[winged spire]

"I dont like seeing starlink satellites"

• person thats never looked at the stars before

[quaint zephyr]

person thats never been outside before 😭

[fossil frost]

10 white dots, following each other, in a straight line... known to be starlink sats... no... im looking at starlink sats

[bitter harbor]

A lot more of the regulars I have also seen on the forums reside there from what I’ve seen.

[raven elbow]

That if I bought a G.SKILL Trident Z5 it would be comfortable in most computer computers, right? My sky tech computer only coming with 16 gig of memory

[winged spire]

those are the buses, before theyre fully deployed

[quaint zephyr]

and you can see planes fly through the sky whats your point

[winged spire]

if seeing the occational extra dot in the sky means giving everyone a way to have high speed reliable internet then so be it

I dont like seeing cell towers everywhere but we can all agree they outweigh the downside

[fossil frost]

you seem like the sort of person that will throw their junk on the floor and when pulled up about it, just say "what, everyone else has their junk on the floor too, why does my junk matter".. failing to see the larger problem

[harsh quartz]

Except it’s not everyone, it’s only the people Elon approve

[quaint zephyr]

you're demeriting a viable broadband option because you can see satellites in the sky

[winged spire]

yeah elon personally approved all 5 million customers

Starlink V3 will also solve a LOT of the issue

you dont need nearly as many

[fossil frost]

the up side does not outweigh the down side... its just "there are both down sides and up sides", whether any given person thinks one outweighs the other, is a personal oppinion, for starlink and cell towers

[quaint zephyr]

dawg i assure you seeing extra dots in the sky is not affecting your life in ANY way whatsoever

[winged spire]

starlink provides high speed reliable internet to places that otherwise cant have it

[quaint zephyr]

like me??

[winged spire]

do any of you actually DO any astronomy?

[fossil frost]

i do astrophotography.. so technically yes

[quaint zephyr]

i do astrophotography

never even seen a starlink sat ngl

[harsh quartz]

Ew

[winged spire]

send me one of your pictures that has a starlink in it please

[quaint zephyr]

i have one in my driveway lol

[lyric sphinx]

It came in my car it's cool I guess

[harsh quartz]

Why does a car need star link?

[quaint zephyr]

people travel?

[winged spire]

its such a large issue for a astrophotography yourself you must have a ton of starlink photobombs

[gilded quest]

It was free (thx grandma)

[bitter harbor]

Similar to OnStar

[gilded quest]

With broken ac in the Arizona summer...

[harsh quartz]

Never understood onstar either

[fossil frost]

the apps that do the image stacking generally optimise them out now, but thats not the point, it doesnt mean that they are not there, and it doesnt mean that work doesnt need to be done to remove them, and it doesnt mean that there are no downsides to 1000s of extra sattelites being there

[gilded quest]

Naw that was the crown vic

[harsh quartz]

thanks grandma 😠

[gilded quest]

Now cops drive fucking Tahoes

[winged spire]

LITERALLY nobody has been claiming there are no downsides

[harsh quartz]

Our sheriff has an f250

[winged spire]

not a single person in this entire conversation

[bitter harbor]

Then you won’t understand Starlink on a car

[winged spire]

id love to have a starlink mini in my car

[gilded quest]

But the bulk fleet purchases for PDs are Tahoes and whatever Ford has that's basically a tahoe

[winged spire]

too expensive

[fossil frost]

i have said multiple times there are downsides, and upsides, and both you and lowkeyidek have continued telling me im wrong for my opinion...

[harsh quartz]

I like the interceptors, I might buy a used one as my next car

[gilded quest]

Explorer? Edge? Expedition? Idk they're all the same

[winged spire]

you should read the conversation again I think, probably

[gilded quest]

Aren't the interceptors on the way out from the automakers?

[quaint zephyr]

find the starlink satellite guys

[gilded quest]

Like the last one I heard of was challenger interceptor?

Or charger
What's the 4 door

[harsh quartz]

Probably but they’re everywhere here, all the police, deputy’s, and highway patrol drive them here. The interceptor is the midsize SUV

[gilded quest]

Oh no....they're chasing me in a Tahoe...whatever shall I do

[harsh quartz]

This thing

[lyric sphinx]

It allows me to track my car and get maintenance updates but I will likely not pay for it after I run out of the three years promotion it is nice to be able to start it from my phone

[gilded quest]

[lyric sphinx]

Tahoe's are pretty quick

[quaint zephyr]

I love my Toyota Corolla

I'm driving this shit hard

I've clocked...800 miles in 2 weeks?

[lyric sphinx]

It is so loud and slow

[harsh quartz]

Camrys are great, Corolla’s lack a little bit of oomph, unless it’s the sporty manual one then I guess it’s fine

[lyric sphinx]

The engine revs to the moon and you are going 20

[gilded quest]

It has a 2L economy Toyota engine 😅

What do you expect

[harsh quartz]

The corollas just can’t go anywhere, you step on the gas and it just doesn’t

[gilded quest]

This car has tried to kill me multiple times

And I'm not talking about the lane assist when you have cruise control on

[quaint zephyr]

i could never suffice myself to a truck lite

[winged spire]

they have like 4 models

1 of them is a truck

[harsh quartz]

I’m driving a standard AWD rav4 and I like the power level, it’s got a Camry engine and drivetrain but the AWD lets me actually get the power to the road a bit better so it doesn’t struggle as much, even with the extra weight

[quaint zephyr]

looking into sports cars anyways

[gilded quest]

There is a secondary always on lane assist that wants me to make love to the interstate walls

[winged spire]

They also offered me an Altima but I have respect for myself

[lyric sphinx]

[winged spire]

[lyric sphinx]

You should already own one

It probably comes in the trunk of the Altima

[quaint zephyr]

[lyric sphinx]

Next to the floor jack

[gilded quest]

Tell Jack to get off the damn floor

[lyric sphinx]

Don't there is a reason they are about to go out of business

[quaint zephyr]

[gilded quest]

Right
I should get a Honda

[lyric sphinx]

Nissan owners don't maintain their cars

[lyric sphinx]

I love my pilot

[quaint zephyr]

thats the hard part of finding a 350z

[gilded quest]

In this case, would a used rental be the better option?

[quaint zephyr]

they're all in shit condition

[lyric sphinx]

At least maintenance has been done

[quaint zephyr]

like who does this to their seats

[lyric sphinx]

But both are hard miles

[lyric sphinx]

My fat ass

[hollow pulsar]

Heckuva fart thats for sure

[lyric sphinx]

Protein farts are no joke

[quaint zephyr]

[gilded quest]

Im not kind to this Corolla

[supple pawn]

They should make an EV version of the 350Z

[lyric sphinx]

I mean you are looking at a 16 year old car

[gilded quest]

Hard fuckin miles, scraping the front every time I park, it's covered in sand and dirt

[quaint zephyr]

yeah

[quaint zephyr]

they dont even make them anymore

[lyric sphinx]

The Corolla was a little to small for me my Impreza i got better

Somehow

[supple pawn]

Doesn't mean they can't bring it back!

The 350E

[quaint zephyr]

😭

the nissan z is their new sports car

[supple pawn]

And they're not Tesla so they might actually be well built.

[gilded quest]

Yeah I prefer the size of the camry

If I'm buying a car, camry

But the Corolla is fine for a work rental

[supple pawn]

Why not a Subaru?

[gilded quest]

No hybrid at this time

[supple pawn]

Dang

[gilded quest]

And I refuse to get a subuwu sticker

[supple pawn]

I didn't know that existed

[quaint zephyr]

this is nice but they still owe money on the car ? 😭

also not a fan of the color

too flashy

[supple pawn]

You're buying a car with a lien? That's a now from me lol

[gilded quest]

Owing money on a used car is a choice

Bros probably at 15% interest too

[quaint zephyr]

[fossil frost]

you take a loan, you buy a car, if you dont finish paying for that loan, you still owe money on that car... you sell the car for the settlement amount for that car... no more loan

[lyric sphinx]

Absolutely it's a good commuter car

[gilded quest]

I hit 41mpg on the weekend

In the same conditions my soul would struggle to do 30

More like 27

[supple pawn]

My focus can get 41 mpg on the highway if I keep it under 80

[fossil frost]

my focus did something similar, until i drove down a farm road, bottomed out, cracked the engine sump.. 3 days before trading it in for my mondeo (fusion for americans)

[lyric sphinx]

I miss rental car with ebrake handles

[fossil frost]

i forgot to tell the dealership that i cracked the sump

[quaint zephyr]

yikes

wouldnt even spend 50 on that

[supple pawn]

Should have put Loktite on the spark plugs and tire valve stems

[gilded quest]

I'm gonna locktite this USB cable

[fossil frost]

i was already pushing it by not telling them that most of the backend had been replaced since i bought it from them 3 years earlier

[split swift]

Doxxed

[quaint zephyr]

whole different state bud 😭

[fossil frost]

some tit ran into it while it was parked up, and then drove off... wrecked most of the back of the car, insurance replaced all the rear panels, the boot tub, the bumper, the rear axle, and the petrol tank... couldnt even tell it had been hit when i got it back

[gilded quest]

You were hit by a small bird?

[fossil frost]
