There’s about to be a pipe wrench fight

Agreed. It is still a marvelous repository of info

I left when the API changes put third party apps out of business, so I don’t have firsthand experience with it. From what I’ve read here on Lemmy and elsewhere, they’ve just gone off the deep end with automated bans and refusing to properly consider appeals.

One thing I saw that at least some subreddits were doing was to ban anyone using the name “Luigi” in a comment or post, even if they weren’t talking about Luigi Mangione.

My guess is that they chased away all of the good moderators, and what is left is shitty, power-hungry mods and bad automation.

There are communities here on Lemmy that continually talk about these issues with Reddit. Lots of the banned users are ending up here (and with that comes good and bad things).

Material shrinkage is another factor to consider, and there are a myriad of other reasons why there are more accurate ways to mass produce things.

Even assuming a perfect print - no blobs, no zits, and, just for the sake of argument, let’s ignore the Z seam - I disagree that you can reliably get 0.1 mm precision off of a FDM machine in all directions. I’ve been able to get parts to fit each other to within 0.3 mm reliably in the best conditions on a properly-calibrated Prusa MK3S+

But that’s just my experience.

Finally! A reason to listen to Dave Matthew’s Band!

Hey now, maybe she likes boring, repetitive horns

Lemmy has become a lot less civil over the last several months. It’s been disappointing to see, and I engage a lot less. Reddit banning people like crazy hasn’t helped.

I give you my permission to “attack the source” on my comment since attacking the fact won’t get you far.

3D printing isn’t meant for production-level accuracy. It’s a prototyping technology that is good enough for a lot of different applications, but not when sub-millimeter precision is necessary.

Can you make something that works? Of course! Will it work as reliably as something made using better processes? Usually not.

I was prepared to downvote based on the first sentence, but then halfway through the comment I changed my mind.
