I’m sorry for the mistake, I tend not to make a difference between US and immigrant toddlers with stage-4 cancer when they’re deported without due process.

As in, they’re first and foremost human children whom the Trump regime inflicts pain and misery upon for no discernable reason.

I think the pros/cons come down to what you need a printer for. If you print mostly flat things, a bedslinger is fine. If you print large parts with sketchy bed attachments like I often do, a coreXY makes a lot more sense. You have no idea the amount of filament I wasted on giant brims and rafts to keep parts from flying off the sheet - not to mention the time it takes to print them.

And then of course, the Prusa XL in particular can be outfitted with up to 5 separate extruders. It has nothing to do with coreXY but it was a big part of why we bought it.

Aaw… Their rich customers might have to spend a few hundred thousand more to get their rolling manlihood compensation machines. My heart bleeds…

How many of those illegal immigrants are toddlers with stage-4 cancer this time?

I haven’t tried pushing the speed yet. I’ve been playing with multi-color and multi-material prints, as well as long tall thin prints that were kind of impossible on the Mk4. And when I’m not playing with that, I’m running it almost 24/7 because I have to produce sets of parts for our production floors asap and each set takes about 20 hours.

But soon the machine will be more available and I’ll play with it some more.

That’s true. The Prusa XL is larger than our Prusa Mk4 with the enclosure, but still fairly comparable. However, the XL’s build volume is kind of… staggering in comparison.

The Prusa XL doesn’t lack rigidity. That thing is build like a tank. It feels a lot sturdier than the Prusa Mk4.
Then again, I guess they’re not in the same category…

The Orville was awesome! I didn’t know there was a new season coming. Thanks for the heads-up!

Biden must be relieved. Can you imaging several hours up in the air with the orange utan not peeping a word?

With those flat plates I’m printing, there’s zero difference. But when I have to print tall thin things, like for example a long tube to adapt diameters, it’s doable without any support on the XL, while I need a gigantic raft and glue on the Mk4 - and even then, it shakes enough that the diameter is not that great at the top.

Also, the XL has two heads, so I can print TPU with PLA support.

That’s because his choice of inappropriate and disrespectful attire is a big message in and of itself:

• Trump is hopelessly gormless and crass. You won’t get through to him with any amount of subtlety.
• He chose to be provocative. This was no accident. It’s his way of saying “You can all go to hell, I’m better than you and I do what I want.” which is something any diplomat who “makes a deal” with him should always bear in mind.
• He signals that his ego is bigger than the largest religion in the world, and focusing the attention on him is more important than a dead pontiff. Again, anyone dealing with him should bear that clearly in mind.

Zelenskyy wore a suit this time and he said thank you, probably…

No problem: let DOGE loose in there and they’ll fire everybody for beaucoup savings!

It’s not really in Taiwan’s interest to let TSMC invest in a fab on US soil, because it would decrease the US’ dependency on Taiwan, and thus lessen the need for the US to defend Taiwan from a Chinese invasion.

TSMC holds the world by the balls. There are no other foundries like TSMC. They’re so big and so important they’re virtually the only reason why the US spends billions maintaining a military presence in the South China sea to hold China at bay and defend Taiwan. If they want to tell Trump to suck eggs, the only loser is Trump.

That doesn’t make you divine.

I was onboard until I saw the “divine being” and “holy tongue” bits. I’m a technophobe, not a religious nutter.

If you ever wondered what it felt like when Germany transitioned from a democracy to a dictatorship in 1933, America is providing a very vivid historical reenactment right now…

some of them have shown you they’re Nazi sympathizers

It’s been known for years that the magats are Nazi sympathizers. And if you had any doubt, very senior figures have warned everybody very bluntly that Trump was a fascist.

So if any of your friends and family was a Trump sympathizer, you should have known long before the election that they were at least Nazi-adjacent.

Therefore the only difference between this reality and the one in which Trump is six feet under is that the American 4th Reich hasn’t happened yet in the latter (but most likely will, because Trump is only a symptom of something deeper and profoundly disturbing in the American society).

There are things that fundamentally don’t work in Wayland by design. One of them is injecting synthetic events into other applications, and at least 2 of the applications I use all the time need it (password manager-like apps that “type” secure codes into arbitrary text fields).
