Wherever I wander I wonder whether I’ll ever find a place to call home…
That doesn’t change anything. Your entire point is that what we translate it to doesn’t change the meaning. So how does that matter?
My point isn’t that “Know Thyself” is the correct way. I was using that more or less interchangeably, since they’re synonymous. My point was that it comes from the Greek, not from Sun Tzu.
And unless you can rationalize why the original inscription being in Greek somehow changes that, I don’t see your point.
I think it means something more along the lines of “examine your latent biases and underlying assumptions, know the difference between perception and reality” but “go fuck yourself” works too, I guess…
The full edition includes everything pre-downloaded and can be used fully offline, whereas the lite edition is much smaller and doesn’t include any disk/tape/etc. images for installations, downloading them the first time an installation is run (which means an internet connection is required to run an installation that hasn’t yet been downloaded). The same guest VM installations are available in both editions, and both editions update packages from the same underlying repository.
Lite Edition: 14GB zipped, 21GB unzipped
For anyone who can’t just download 121GB in one go
Can confirm. I was the friend.
They know they’re going to live with the consequences of AI, that’s why they’re booing it.
“Why does this say I’ve been banned from reddit permanently?”
I think “Know Thyself” comes from an inscription over the entrance to the Temple of Apollo at Delphi
Wow, Wickerman will never hit the same way again after reading this…
I guess lining hats with tinfoil is no longer solely for the paranoid…
I’m wondering if some types of crystal can absorb or distort the signals enough to make you harder to identify. I mean I guess you’d be “that guy with the crystals in his pocket” and would be easy to correlate to CCTV flock, but if everyone does it it could create a layer of obscuration.
Especially things with piezoelectric and/or electromagnetic effects. I’m thinking mainly along the lines of quartz, tourmaline, pyrite, tiger’s eye (hematite/jasper), shungite, etc.
It would be worth experimenting with if anyone tries that open source software another commenter linked…
I have basically no complaints about the Kobra. The printer itself at least (the website is way too dynamic and can be a bother when placing an order).
Although it is my first printer, so I don’t have much of a baseline to compare it to. I’m pretty impressed with it though.
The only issues I’ve had can be fixed by slicing differently (adding brim, supports, etc.) or washing the print plate when it starts to get dirty. Just failed adhesions mostly. I might try using adhesive for some trickier prints. It does overhangs really well though.
You’ve already forgotten about the BLM protests?
If you “just care about printing stuff” then why would you go with the walled garden that relies on userlocks, proprietary formats, and forced network connectivity to function? Not to mention the fire risk and rug pulling…
Anycubic and Creality are cheap Prusa knockoffs that need a lot of tuning to perform well.
My kobra prints fine. .16mm layer height by default (in OrcaSlicer), but it can go down to .08mm just with the default .4mm nozzle. I haven’t experimented with anything smaller, but so far I’ve had no issues. The precision and speed is remarkable, and I can calibrate, print, and do everything I need to do entirely offline.
There was no manual tuning or upgrades required, it showed up, assembled easily, and has been plug-and-play since. Yes, there’s an option to upgrade because of it’s modular design but that by no means means that it’s required. I can retrofit it to print with 16 different filaments, but I’m fine with the default of 4.
And regarding the slicer I really don’t care which slicer I use. It just has to do its job.
If you don’t care which slicer you use, then why would you go with the only one with a proprietary format that locks you into a walled garden? That’s some really weird logic…
Guess so. I must’ve been thinking about something else.
By the way, I wonder if this painting was inspiration for 進撃の巨人
First of all, no one said “The US is good actually.”
Second of all, aren’t you the same type of person who used to cry about USAID being a front for US imperialism? Now you want to complain that it’s gone, because oh wait they were actually helping to contain infectious diseases, provide clean drinking water, and feed people in food scarce areas…
That got shut down last year, by the way, not “just this year.”
As for catastrophic actions China has engaged in, I suppose if you ignore forced assimilations in Tibet and Urumqi, the hostile police takeover of Hong Kong, and the aggressive and environmentally destructive colonization of the South China Sea, then it would start to be somewhat difficult to come up with any examples…
Can’t wait until enough people are unemployed that nothing is stopping them from marching in the streets.
Remember what happened during covid layoffs? People brought tents to the protests and camped out for months…
I didn’t buy this printer as a tinkering project but to print stuff and at that it really is very good.
There are plenty of other printers that do this. Prusa, Creality, Flashforge, Anycubic. Plenty of slicers available. I don’t know why you’re pretending Bambu is necessary, or like it’s the only option.
Any time I find print files online that are in .bgcode format, I’m like “seriously…”.
I usually slice projects myself anyway because I don’t use PLA, but it’s just kinda lame to post a project online using the only closed source format that only works with one kind of printer.
Plus, there’s the whole spontaneous combustion issue…
Wasn’t the guy who killed Hitler named Adolf?
Again, unless you somehow take that as evidence that it was in fact Sun Tzu who said that, and not the inscription on the Temple of Apollo, then that makes no difference to what I said.
Well seeing as it was inscribed on the literal temple of an ancient deity, it seems “Thyself” would be the more accurate translation, according to your own logic.
