New (Open Box) Ender 3 Blue Screen in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

That's a great idea. See if you can interact with it at all. Printrun is another option if you don't want to set up Octoprint.

Some images not showing in app in c/boostforlemmy@lemmy.world
[–] dirtdigger@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

This turned out to be something on my end, but leads to a question about how the behavior of the app should be.

I did some digging, turned out this was due to some certs or something on my home router that didn't like sh.itjust.works. The web interface shows a lemmy.world mirror of the image, but Boost shows the image from the original post on sh.itjust.works.

The question is, should the app be pulling from the original source? If that source instance goes down, Boost won't be able to show it anymore. That seems against the philosophy of the Fediverse (and the actual Lemmy website shows the mirror).

Thanks for checking. I thought maybe it was my choice of theming or some weird state I've confused the app in, so I cleared the data in the app but the problem persists.

Some images not showing in app (lemmy.world)
 

There are a lot of posts that don't load the images in the app, but show fine on the lemmy.world website. It's not just limited to the Garfield community. Is this a Lemmy.world issue or Boost?

AI-screened eye pics diagnose childhood autism with 100% accuracy in c/technology@lemmy.world

Yup, you're right, good catch 🙂

You need to report two numbers for a classifier, though. I can create a classifier that catches all cases of autism just by saying that everybody has autism. You also need a false positive rate.

storing of filamenter bewteen prints in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

Depends on where you live. I live in a desert where the humidity is often <10% and have left PETG and PLA rolls out for several weeks at a time with no issues. With nylons I've been a bit more careful, though I'm not sure I need to be.

What kind of climate do you live in?

Prusa MK4 failing X-axis test in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

Prusa machines come with phenomenal support, why not consult them directly?

+1 for Voron. I just finished up mine and am pleased with the results. Totally open source, modifiable, and unlike Prusa machines not based on a 5-year old design. (This is coming from somebody who loves the MK3S+ but was very disappointed with the MK4's marginal improvement and botch-job of a lunch)

Nice! I'm looking for a label maker for a similar setup. What do you recommend?

This is the first week I've been working on it, I'd estimate maybe 10 hours so far, most of it last Sunday.

Subbed!

Just installed the bed on my 2.4 last night. Lots to do yet, but it's starting to look like a printer!

Visualization of 3d printing filament colors from filamentcolors.xyz (dirtdigger.github.io)

If you didn't already know of it, filamentcolors.xyz is a website that collects swatches of 3d printing filaments to help people choose colors. They prints swatches of filaments colors, analyse their spectral contents, and create approximate hex values (among other things).

I'm a visual learner and very much wanted an interactive way to view the data. I created a plotly visualization that displays all of the filaments (as of June 16, 2023) in a scatter plot. To access, simply download the html file from github and open in your browser. You can zoom, pan, and rotate using your mouse wheel, right mouse button, and left mouse button, respectively. Hovering over a data point will tell you the filament name/brand, original hex value, rgb values, and hsv values.

I contacted the owner of filamentcolors.xyz before sharing since he technically owns the dataset, and he was OK with me sharing this with the larger community. He even seemed interested in including a widget like this on the site proper, so we might see something like it there, soon.

I hope this is useful to you!

Edit: figured out how to do a direct link to github.io.

Kind of blurry since I had to zoom with my phone. He was chattering up a storm! We also have a feeder made specifically for orioles, but he really digs the hummingbird feeder...

What are y'all's favorite exotic filaments? (lemmy.world)
 

I have some Fiberology PA12+CF15 blend (link) from a long time ago and recently got around to using it. I am amazed to say the least! It prints easier than PETG, even without an enclosure. Only downside is that it is much more expensive per kg, although it is lower density so I don't seem to be going through it as quickly as other filaments.

I recently purchased some PC Blend with CF from Prusa as well. I haven't gotten to print it yet, but I've heard very good things about it, too.

What less common filaments do you fine folks like using?
