Belkin is killing off parts of the Wemo Line
  • A lot of our light switches and smart plugs are pre HomeKit WeMos and this is super frustrating. They weren’t a great product but we had them and they worked well enough, but Belkin’s on my fuck off list now.

  • The Witcher 4 Developer Calls Xbox Series X "Extremely Challenging" for 60FPS
  • “Filled” / “Three people” Hahah what? Folks are just asking you do the smallest of read through on an article, and if you make the very common ‘whoops that was wrong’ mistake, just correct it instead of throwing a fit about how you’re being bullied.

  • Can corn be transplanted?

    Happy Saturday all! I’m growing corn for the second year in my little raised bed and I’m trying it from seed this time. It’s mostly gone well and some of them are to the point I should cull them down to one sprout a spot, but I was wondering if it would be feasible to transplant the second highest stalk on each to fill in spots none of them sprouted from. If so, any tips on the process?

    Trophies and knickknacks for my friend's board game birthday

    A buddy’s been hosting a board game birthday for ten years now and I wanted to bring some fun printed stuff. Have trophies for the most and second most wins, plus the green one for him as it’s his favorite color, and one for whomever plays the most games that day. Also printing out assorted little meeple with the ten/X on them.

    Really cool app for AR terrain setup

    I just stumbled across this app that uses a QR code in the center of the table to align itself, and then puts AR guides up to help lay down your objectives and terrain. Tested it on my kitchen floor because I was too lazy to get the table set up, and it works creepily well! Has all the different terrain layouts in it, big recommend as of now.

    My wife is out of town for the week and took our dog with her

    So far I’ve: -done some dishes and laundry. -taken a nap on the couch without being molested. -walked to the library to see if there are any fun looking books, at a reasonable pace, without stopping for sniffs every 30 seconds

    Just switched from a K1M to a P1S and it's night and day

    I mostly loved my K1 Max but could not get the x-axis dialed in properly, so any time I tried to print anything with a circle it would come out a bit lumpy. I'd sold my CR-10 and upgraded because I was tired of the constant tinkering and just wanted a tool that, while it will need maintenance and the like, would mostly just do what I wanted. Also my BIL got a P1S and I was hugely envious of the AMS system haha.

    Luckily a buddy was looking to upgrade as well and is buying my K1M off me so I ordered a P1S and just got it set up today and.....it's just working and I'm so happy. Benchys between the two look about the same, although the textured build plate gives a nice bottom layer, but I printed a couple trinkets my wife likes to hand out at Disneyland and it's just night and day better quality.

    I'm sure I got a bit unlucky with the K1M and lucky with the P1S but it was amazing just printing stuff and it came out fine the first time.

    Started putting together the Porphyrion and uuhhhh he's going to be a big boy

    I knew it was a larger model but didn't realize how much larger until I got one of the legs together.

    Trying to add text to the bottom of prints and the quality is inconsistent

    Hoping someone has an idea on this!

    I’ve been making little Disney trinkets for my wife to hand out when we go to Disneyland, and feedback has been positive enough that I thought I’d try a little Etsy store to make some filament money.

    Initially I added it into my base template in TinkerCAD but it kept coming out real bad, so I’ve been trying adding the text within Creality Print, and usually it looks pretty good but it can be wildly inconsistent. The top two are from a batch of five where I set one up and then duplicated it. The middle two are from a batch of eleven, all duplicated from the first five that looked nice, and then the bottom two are that same batch of five that I tried printing a second time and it turned out way worse.

    Any idea on why it varies so much and what I could do to resolve it?

    Any recommendations for refillable PLA filament?

    Does anyone have a brand of PLA they like that offers refillable spools? I'm digging Overture and Elegoo using cardboard spools but if I could get/print a refillable one and buy just the filament itself going forward that would be an even nicer solution.
