What book(s) are you currently reading or listening? September 10
  • I've been listening to the "Destiny's Crucible" series by Olan Thorensen. Currently on the 8th book "A Fearful Symmetry".

    It's about a guy from earth that has been transported, by aliens, to another planet that happens to also have humans but their culture is at a much lower technology level(around what earth was in the 1600s). And it follows him as he adjusts to the culture, and carefully starts introducing innovations.

  • Advice choosing my next 3d printer

    I am looking to get a new 3d printer. I've had an ender 3 V2 for a few years. While I've been able to get many excellent prints out of it, I'm looking for a printer for my new apartment that will require a little less tinkering and troubleshooting. I'm pretty experienced with the nuances of 3d printing, and don't mind taking things apart and fixing things(but not every time I wanna use the thing). Realistically I'll be printing mostly PLA and PETG, but it would be nice to have the option of trying out other higher strength filaments, and I'd like to have an enclosure to play with ABS eventually.

    I prefer to spend around $500. I've been eying up the Bambu P1S with the AMS but I really don't think I can afford almost $1000 right now. If it's really worth it, I can pull it off. The Bambu a1 is also interesting, but id prefer to have a core-xy with an enclosure.

    I've been looking at the flashforge 5m or 5m pro, as well as creality k1c. Those prices are way more attractive. Or perhaps qidi?

    All the choices and different technologies on the market now are a little bit overwhelming, and I don't want to be disappointed in my purchase. I'll mostly be using it to print random things for around the house and for electronics projects.

    Any thoughts or recommendations are welcome, thank you!

    Replacement Battery
  • mAh/Wh is just the capacity of the battery, and it's often exaggerated or just plain incorrect on these cheap mass produced batteries. So battery life may be slightly different than intended for the product but it won't cause any issues. As long as voltage is similar(all lipo batteries are 3.7-4.2v, some manufacturers label with 3.7, some with 3.8, etc. But all cells of the same battery chemistry are the same voltage range) it'll operate and charge just fine.

  • Replacement Battery
  • 484588 is the dimensions of the battery. So 4.8mm thick, 45mm wide, 88mm long. Any lipo that fits in there will do the trick, but obviously similar size is best. You should be able to find something similar on AliExpress; it would help to round the dimensions to a more standard number. For example, search "504090 3.7v" assuming a 5x40x90mm battery would fit in the cavity.

  • Apple Computer Check Signed by Steve Jobs Sells for $46,000
  • As an American, it would be weird for me to see it as a decimal, however I can't say I've ever really thought about it. It's just "traditional" for checks to be written that way here, and how we're taught in school.

  • What is a fun gadget you have purchased that has added value to your life?
  • Fair enough, I guess I just end up needing to fix things for other people way more than the average person. And more often then not, a multi tool saves me a trip to my car tool box. Its mainly just the blade, and pliers that get a lot of use. But the scissors and file get used quite a bit, too.
