  • Because you want to keep your cat from going in/out at certain times or what?

    We just have one of those chip-enabled flaps so it only unlocks for our cats. 100% offline with no cloud connection whatsoever. I personally don’t really see any benefit to remote locking/unlocking the flap, if I wanted to manage when my cat can enter/leave the home I wouldn’t have a flap.




  • Yet a lot of those businesses lean on the work of prusa.

    Yes, a lot of the groundwork was done by prusa, and yes a lot of companies are standing on their shoulders. Prusa 100% deserves a lot of credit for enabling what 3D printing has become today, no doubt about that…but they haven’t really been innovative or at the front of 3D printing for a while, they stagnated and have been overtaken as a consequence.

    Edit: most of the cheap Chinese manufacturers are ahead because they lean massively in to klipper and rely on the community there.




  • I would love to love Prusa’s printers, but they just keep lacking IMO. They cost an absolute premium price, but you get a sort of “yesterday’s tech” experience with with them. I can get two voron v2.4 350x350x350mm kits for the price of a single Prusa core one L, and aside from active chamber temp control the core one L has basically the same functional features as the vorons.

    The web-interface experience is so much nicer with klipper + mainsail/fluidd than what prusa offers. The abundance of additional community-made features for klipper is immense and usually extremely easy to implement, it’s a shame prusa insists on their own ecosystem.

    Ok then, sure it’s extreme but document handling is not necessarily a key (or even important) part of their work. Yes they absolutely shouldn’t need to use 15min or get help to save a document, but if their skills in their actual job are spectacular and they produce the work of two in that area, of course they still should be compensated well. I don’t know your specific case, but this is almost the case I mentioned.
