For a while I couldn't use voice to tell my car that I wanted to go home.

In my country we have a chain of real estate agencies called "Home", and it would show my navigation to the nearest branch.

Annoying, since almost every second trip I take is going home.

(I use navi for traffic info.)

Yes, it IS a big deal. Someone was hired to do the translation. Either by hand, or quality-check machine translation.

That someone is either not very good at English, or don't have time to do it right.

And this is where my nostalgia kicks in. Why aren't people doing it right anymore. Why is it so often just good enough to not get too many complaints. And why do we keep buying for these low quality services and products, instead of spending our money on fewer better products.

And yes, I know I'm part of the problem. I can get an X that seems good. Or I can get another X that seems almost as good, and the savings is enough to pay the airplane ticket to see my family on another continent. At least if I use the cheapest airline...

Og også, hvis vi fik ensrettet sorteringen på tværs af kommuner, så der kunne stå på varen, hvordan den skulle smides ud.

Det har de lige gjort, den nye lov trådte i kraft her i 2025.

Se fx https://www.affald.dk/

Jeg ser de nye symboler og farver mere og mere på emballager.

Se fx andet billede på denne chips-pose, se nederste venstre hjørne. Der vises med tekst, symbol og farve at posen er blød plast.

Mange bruger papkasser hvor størrelsen kan tilpasses. Eller også tilpasser man bare størrelsen uanset om kassen er designet til det.

På mit arbejde har de maskiner der skærer en kasse specifikt til hver ordre, men det er nok ikke noget man skal forvente flertallet kan gøre.

Yeah, it seems like "developer mode" is pretty much just "old fashion mode". If they do it right, it looks like a solution to me.

But doing it right includes making it offially supported.

Great.

1: How do I get an RTSP or ONVIF? Every time I try to buy one, the stuff that is recommended is no longer available, or practically only available in US. (I haven't checked in months maybe years, but this is where I usually get stuck.)

2: So I get a camera, and I have an rpi or PC-based server with storage. I can see a stream, but that's just an extra eye. How do I turn this into a surveillance camera, so I get a notification when there's movement, and an archive of people in the monitored area?

I'm hoping all the noise makes BL rethink sone choices before the new firmware goes live.

At best, they will change their mind enough that we don't loose anything significant, and we can just keep our printers.

Then all we have to consider is if we trust BL enough to buy more printers from them. Or even if we want to buy their filament.

3D printing is not as strong as injection molding the same material in the same shape.

But you can beef it up. You can 3D print stuff much bulkier than injection molding can do.

If you really want to, you can also use stronger materials.

Also, even the weakest cheapo stuff you can get is plenty strong for most stuff people are printing.

Knowing about what makes a part strong or weak helps a lot.

Same with æg. I can get 10 cage-free æg for 18,- kr incl tax, which is 2.49 USD.

This is the answer. They are bridges to support the next layer.

It is a stainless steel nozzle, but the real problem is that it's not just the nozzle, it's either "hotend" with cooling ribs etc, with lots of fiddling to connect wires etc, or "complete hotend" that also comes with a fan so more of the wires are already connected.

See https://us.store.bambulab.com/products/bambu-hotend-p1-series?variant=40923060797576

I wish they did like Prusa where you can also buy assembly, but they have one that is basically an adapter so you can use any regular cheap nozzle.

It's a P1S. A nozzle that is hard/cumbersome to change is 15 USD. One that is almost as easy to change as a regular nozzle is 35 USD.

Add shipping costs, maybe taxes, the fact that they can have crazy delays...

I remember on my old printer I'd by a bag of nozzles even if I didn't need them. But on a Bambu... Yeah, I'd try to salvage the nozzle too.
