Yes, but your laptop is not liking the software, and now you are running it in a browser too. Unless the service offered by the container is remote control, then it’s not going to be of any help for you. Difference between running a HTML5 game in your browser, or GeForce Now: one runs locally, the other is just a video feed.

I don’t have any experience here, but everything seems to point towards the docker being just a way to install it for any machine, for ease of management, not a streaming/remote control situation where the software runs on the server, and you just see/interact with the video output. So probably the slowdown is caused by your laptop liking FreeCad even less once it’s running in your web browser.

Obviously I can be way off, but this is what it looks to me.

Yeah, but we seem to like hampering the right to manifest, so I’m sure it’ll get thrown in the mix.

There’s a little nuance here, the kid was dumb enough to bring one of those to school, so some worry is warranted… some. Now as you can imagine this is going to have consequences, but as we do have functional gun control laws, it’ll be something inane. Probably won’t impact 3D printing at all is the upside.

Ubisoft is a weird one. I like their open world games (not that hard, so long as I like the premise for a specific one, it’s more of the same) and they seem to want their games running everywhere! Except sometimes. Here’s the latest example, but conversely a few months ago Motorfest stopped being announced anti cheat pita and just worked. Always have to check protondb before getting one… oh! And then there’s Starlink, which works on Linux but, lol, hates virtualization tech so on Windows it’s either that not running, or Windows complaining about lowered security. Lovely.

Yes-ish. The base is Draw Things and the relevant bits are https://github.com/drawthingsai/draw-things-community?tab=readme-ov-file#cuda-capable-linux that isn’t too difficult to setup. The app with the pretty interface is Apple only (the developer one day decided to cram the full 1.5 on his iPhone and that was the start of this. The app has feature parity between the iOS, iPad and Mac versions, the gRPC server is “just” the generation parts decoupled from the app) but there’s a Comfy plugin to use the server.

BTW on Apple’s hardware Comfy is poorly optimized, while Draw Things is optimized. The iPhone XR is the oldest hardware capable of on device generation, and (with the right settings) could do a SDXL 1024x1024 generation. 13 minutes mind you for 8 steps, but also 3gb of total system memory. On the other hand, the iPhone 17 Pro is a third of the speed of my RTX 3060. There’s also a friendly Discord, and the dev clearly enjoys adding support for new, cool models because he’s quick at it but doesn’t share roadmaps of any kind.

Yeah. I really, really like that thing.

Qwen edit can take an image as a sample, and work with that. “The character in a victorious pose” would get whatever character you have, and reproduce it in a victorious pose. Couple of examples:

And a little janky because it IS generative AI after all…

Edit: and a bonus screenshot showing how little effort I had to put into this lol

You know Proton, and how the various versions have different compatibility? And some games might prefer a specific Proton? This stuff is a… “Linux base” that developers can target, so for example if I make a game tomorrow and target a specific version, it’ll run tomorrow like in 20 years, because no matter how the actual system will change, that “Linux base” I targeted will still be there.

What about a partially cleaned blob… of PP… that also went inside the sock?

[–] Stampela@startrek.website 6 points 3 months ago

So, fun issue those things can have: my Sovol SV07 Plus has one and it works great… or it did until the filament chewed through the plastic and made very awkward channels in and out of it. In itself no big deal, still goes through the sensor, but the issue is that it can be a bit too tight of a fit and get jammed. Like, HARD so you have to try pulling it both ways before it dislodges. It’s not a fun way for a print to fail. My workaround is to use a tiny bit of ptfe tube at the entrance, hot glued there so the filament will go straight. So far it’s been working.

Happy cake day!

I mean, the question was about importing settings, PEEK or PLA wouldn’t make a substantial difference in “there’s a menu a little out of sight this way, you also need to do this and that in Cura” and, given how Cura was the top dog for the last few years, one would think that the new hotness would have a way to easily get people to switch. I don’t know how challenging that is from a technical perspective, but evidently it’s enough to not make it worth it to the developers… anyway I copied the speed settings, saved the profile as “0.18 decent” and since I was there, connected Klipper too. Ready for testing.

That aside, wanting to find the simple way is different from lack of experience. I think I got that between putting together the aforementioned Ender 3, replacing the board with a SKR 3, and contextually adding a BLTouch, something that required editing and recompiling Marlin ;)

Basically I would like to give Orca a fair try, and import my stuff because while Cura gives me quick, accurate print times… Orca gives me far slower and despairing optimistic times, so it really takes several times longer than it says. I have a Sovol SV07 Plus, and technically it looks like there are profiles but if the results are agonizingly slow…

I tried to import a 3mf and it happily ignored everything aside from the models.

What can I do?

Edit: I looked into this more, and the printer’s profile seems fine, it’s the presets that need all the speed values increased by nearly 10 times lol. Still confused about that, but hey. I found what’s wrong.

 

I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now.

 

Because ohhhh, yeah, we’re finally getting the Star Trek event! https://modernarmor.worldoftanks.com/en/cms/news/star-trek-challenge/

 

I’ll start: a naked guy complaining to his host that there’s less light than advertised.

 

As per the title, you can just Side Quest the apk, open it, do the login, connect a Bluetooth controller and enjoy. It’s just a big screen, but it’s nice. Also very, very easy to do! I remember when doing this for Stadia it required fiddling a little and, crucially as it was before the support for Bluetooth controllers, Stadia was the only option because the controller was WiFi lol.

As a bonus you could install a browser (here’s my pick https://vivaldi.com/android/ ) and in the future just download apk with that.

 

You good folks produce so many memes that my phone now can recognize nearly the entire cast of all Star Trek…

 
 

I made the mistake of updating from 53 to 54 back when it dropped, and since then... let's say that if an activity involves the wifi, I am better off not doing it. Updating apps? lol no. Using the store? The video previews take over half a minute to start playing, and almost immediately stop to buffer again. AirLink / Virtual Desktop? Terrible, TERRIBLE idea. It's not my connection or the network hardware as I tested it on a different network and nothing changed. I've contacted support a few minutes ago, I doubt it will help.

 

As a noob this is likely me, but I tried to start a community on another server and I can't see the post (my other account used to make said community) made and set as english. Unless it's just me being a noob, that can't be good. A cursory look seems to confirm that I can't see anything aside from "Undetermined".
