Yeah it’s absolutely awful. I haven’t checked out the trade-in pricing. I haven’t ever tried that before, I was considering trading in my pixel 8, but I like having a spare in case something happens to my main phone and it needs to be repaired.
But yes, I agree it is a bad look.
Agreed. I desperately wanted a Pixel phone with 1TB, when I saw that not only is the Pro available in a normal size model this year, BUT with a 1TB option I got excited…until I saw that it adds $500 to the base price of the phone, bringing it to a whopping $1499.
I’m gonna wait and see what the pricing looks like on Black Friday. I was originally wanting to keep my Pixel 8 until support ran out, but I’m already over half full on my 256gb, and my screen is having the green screen issues. I know I can get it warrantied, but the 1tb normal sized Pro is just a tempting option.
Oh man, check his profile on printables. He’s got a 500 cig adapter. Man has designed the route to speed run cancer acquisition.
Agreed, I also miss the feature of being able to extend a screenshot on a page.
But uBO is a necessity now to browse the Internet. The ads are so bad now.
Had this happen as well with the GR86 trunk handle file that’s on there as well. I made a make, tried to mark it as such, but was given the same error. Like with your case, the creator doesn’t have an option for purchase/support.
My first VSO was a clip for this garnish/trim for some blinds my mom had. Due to the way the blinds fit in this specific window, my mom couldn’t use the factory hardware to fix the garnish to the blinds, so for the longest time she was using adhesives which would fail over time. One day (shortly before my printer arrived) the garnish fell again and almost hit my cat, my mom expressed frustration over it, and over how she would have to go by more adhesives. I reminded her that I’m getting a printer, I could just make something that would mount it permanently.
My second one was two mounts for my IKEA lack enclosure. I wanted to make a Nevermore filter, so I needed a power supply. Thanks to working at an electronics lab, I managed to score the power supply from a server rack PC. It’s absolute overkill for this, but it came out looking pretty clean, even modeled in a mounting hole for a simple toggle switch so I can activate the power supply without having to plug/unplug the unit.
The printer won’t do any leveling with a fully heated nozzle.
The MK4’s we use at work and my personal MK4 all heat up to 170 before bed leveling, and if you previously swapped filaments before leveling, the printer will pause and wait until the nozzle has cooled down to the target range before initiating bed leveling.
Yeah, this stuff is already pretty brittle to start with, but once it’s been out in the air for a day or two it becomes even more brittle. You can easily snap it with the slightest effort.
It’s pretty tedious to work with, but we have to use it.
We have access to a decent amount of tools at the lab, it’s definitely feasible. We tossed around the idea, and honestly I may prefer that to a food dehydrator as all of the dehydrators I’ve seen have a cut off timer whereas the filament dryers we have can be run indefinitely.
I’ll have to pitch that to my boss and see what he thinks. I’ve seen some people convert some water proof/resistant totes from Target to become filament dryers.
Thanks! I’ll add this to the list. This looks like it could work well.
My boss and I discussed that, he’d rather not have to pay the labor to have us respool the filament when we could just drop it into a dryer.
But I’ll show this to him, he may be open to the idea if it speeds up the process. Only potential problem is this ESD PLA filament is pretty brittle, I don’t know how it will enjoy respooling.
Specifically a potion that dissolves only clothing.
I used to do car electronics installs for a living. The amount of firearms I’d find was staggering.
Many times where we needed to get to/behind the glovebox, or remove the center console (which usually requires pulling every item being stored in it before removal), and we’d just find the handgun sitting right there. Had one where the client dropped off their vehicle and the gun was laying right on the floorboard.
Not firearm related, but I had a little old lady come in one time, wanted to get a radio done. Went to remove her center console so we could install an aftermarket USB in the factory USB location (adapter didn’t work with carplay too well) and I found a rusted ice pick in the center console. She was definitely ready to make someone’s day worse.
Yeah my mom convinced me to trade-in my 8 and just get the Pro model.
I have/had a 6, but the battery became extra spicy and I haven’t gotten around to getting a replacement.
My Pixel 2 is still happily kicking though, no swelling and still turns on. Though the battery doesn’t last long at all.
They quoted like $450-$490 for my Pixel 8, but I imagine it’s going to be even less as the screen is still flashing green. Even though they’re doing warranty replacements on the P8 because of that, I’m betting they’re going to use it as an excuse to slash the value off the trade-in.
