Recommend me a new FDM printer

I've been running my Creality CR6 SE (kickstarter edition) for a few years now, and now considering an upgrade to add to the fleet. But I'm way out of the loop on what would be a good robust and reliable option these days. Would love some recommendations on what to look for in a new printer, and maybe which printers the community would agree are solid choices. I already have a good resin printer, so specifically looking at just FDM printers.

    The Den just has the one creepy Trade Authority though. Maybe the guy in the bar if you have foodstuffs to sell. I've spent too much real-world time waiting 48 game hours in the chairs by the airlock for him to reset. Kind of a drag.

    The Key has 8 vendors all with generous cred limits right next to eachother. I think the next best place is Neon, you can run down the central concourse selling to every shop along the way. Assuming you get any "special acquisition" goods past the scanners that is.

    ::: spoiler I actually assumed that the UC would set up shop on the Key. It was their station originally, after all. If I had realized the vendors would be gone for good, I may not have finished the Crimson Fleet storyline so early. :::

    At the top of my list is to have vendor's available credits scale with my level. I'm hurting to offload a ton of high value loot, especially after ::: spoiler spoiler losing access to the Key. :::

  • Projectionist Projectionist 12 months ago 100%

    I felt the same way almost immediately after my first go through the Unity. Played in the new universe for a couple hours before deciding to reload a save from before the transition, and made the opposite choice. Some of the conversations you have at the Lodge after choosing to stay are pretty poignant, so I'm glad I got to see that.

    I'll probably go full into NG+ at some point, but wanted to more fully experience my original universe first. Plus, it's way easier to get those final research projects and max out a few choice skills when I have millions of credits and a boatload of materials gathered off of an entire campaign. I highly doubt I'll have those levels of resources available again.

    You can, but they're more autonomous worker drones in the outposts. These ones have personality, and just follow you around while beep-purring. I want to keep them so badly!

    Dream Home would not pick again. It's a nice enough house, but I've been there a total of one time when I paid it off. There's no reason at all to go here, or any of the purchasable homes in this game.

    Hero Worship sounded funny. It's super irritating. Another waste of a trait

    Raised Enlightened Because, science! It's come up in conversation a few times. It's fine I guess. Just realized that I never went to the house of the enlightened to pick up my free crate of goodies.

But I rescued these four garden bots that were locked in a small closet, and now they follow me everywhere. So I guess Sarah and I have a family now, and this is my new home because I can't abandon them again. They keep making happy robot noises at me.

    Going to second Ovvo. I have a pair of their titanium frames, and they're awesome. I can bend and twist them and they just flex right back into shape. I like that the arm hinges don’t have any screws or springs, they're just folded metal oragamied together. Plus, they're ridiculously light.

    Up until a few days ago, I thought Reddit Gold was just the awards. I had no idea it was an ad-free subscription. Reddit could have easily converted me into a paying customer by offering a personal api key that i plug into my favorite 3rd party app. The $5 more than covers my api calls, plus opportunity cost from not seeing ads, plus it would have kept me feeding quality content into their machine. What a series of ridiculous missteps.

    These look great! I like the ones towards the end that seem to show a combined upvote/downvote button and counts. Rather than having 4 separate elements for up count, down count, upvote, downvote. If that makes sense. I'd attach a pic, but I'm using your app right now, and... you know. ;)

    Can we talk about that weird camera roll during the M’Benga / Chapel fight scene? Usually thats done when gravity is changing, but here the camera flipped, they went through a hatch to a lower level, then the camera rolled over again. What was that all about?

    That was my take as well on the ship. My reading was that they picked up a bunch of salvage from the war, and kit-bashed it all together to make a ship.

    This is a great start, and very usable already.

    First, thank you for putting the community name first, before the poster's name. I'm not sure why all of Lemmy has it the other way around. I usually couldn't care less who the poster is, it's the community name that's important.

    Here's my two suggestions: • When viewing a single community and the name is at the top of the screen, there's no need to repeat the "in [community name]" under every post. Omit that and just display the "by [user name]"

    • Abbreviate the time display. Instead of "3 hours ago," display "3h". Both Apollo and the lemmy web interface do it that way and it's much cleaner.

    One of these days I'll dig into vatsim. I really don't know what I'm doing though as far as proper procedures, or radio usage. So that would be quite a journey to get to that level! One day...

    I typically fly GA aircraft, the Cessna 414 is my current obsession. Or the XCub for bush trips.
