I still don’t see any public discussion on why Israel should be allowed to have nukes, and not Iran. That is the core idea of deterrence.

Israel has so much kompromat on western politicians, that they are basically held by their balls.

Also, the US Involvement in the war is almost certainly fueled by all the shit Israel has on Turd. The Epstein files, considering Epstein was a Mossad agent, must de devastating.

And not enough gold curtains

Clueless. Do your homework.

Naval Station Rota, and Morón Airbase are pretty fucking big, strategic, and not being able to use them is not trivial.

Bullshit:

“I would like to present new measures from Spain — first and foremost, a new military aid package worth EUR 1 billion for 2026. In total, Spain’s assistance in this war has reached EUR 4 billion,” Sanchez said.

Spain’s location is very important strategically, and not being able to us Naval Station Rota, and Morón airbase complicates things for the US. Disabling, no, but it certainly makes things harder.

I mainly use Elegoo Rapid PETG. I hated PETG because of it’s very low speed, but this filaments is a real game changer. Prints fast and easy. A bit stringier than PLA. Idry it before storing, which helps a lot. I don’t think I have seen anything inside with 3 or more top layers. What filament are you using?

I think you meant to say Mosaic.

Very pleased to meet herself.

I have a printer that started life as an Ender 5 Plus. the print volume is 350x350x400. I have printed some pretty big things, like a full size Mandalorian helmet in one piece, and never maxed it out. A lot of my prints would fit in a Bambu lab A1 mini. Ask yourself how many large prints you’d do in one piece. Also, printing large prints can be stressful, as failures mid print are a lot more painful in large prints. You won’t see many printers larger than 350 for a reason.

My printer has been converted to an Endorphin Hybrid CoreXY so of the original printer, little more than the frame, motors, and bed remains. It’s a pretty competent printer. Over 3x the stock speed, good quality prints, and cost me around 150€, including an overkill (not really, has room for a toolchanger mod I’m planning) Octopus Max board. if you use a simpler board, you could probably shave around 40€. I had the printer, so it was a no brainer for me.

I got a couple of rails that were larger, because for some reason they were cheaper than the original. I cut them to size with an angle grinder on a miter adaptor which I had, but which are cheap. Just make sure you wrap the rails in masking tape, and grind down the edges a little. Any speck of iron dust will wreck the carriages.

Ender 5 Pluses are cheap used.

If I were starting from zero, maybe I would have looked into an Elegoo Centauri carbon, 310€, or an Anycubic Kobra X,339€ including 4 color MMU, or ideally a Snapmaker U1 toolchanger, 850€.

Just because I have some rails wouldn’ really justify building a printer from scratch, but that’s just me. To me is like justifying building a mountain bike from scratch because I got some wheels free.

How good a welder are you? introducing a 1-2mm. difference is really easy when welding, not to mention the squareness of the frame. Extrusions allow for corrections.

By 2032 Wine will probably be advanced enough to run any Windows program

My 80 yr old mother got a laptop recently, W11. I downgraded to W10 LTSC, and dual boot with Mint, and ran Chris Titus’ win util to decrapify. Two weeks later she had allowed windows to trick her into upgrading to W11 again.

She’s been using computers since the 70’s, and owned PCs since the DOS era, but she just doesn’t want to bother with anything but using her PC in autopilot mode. Couldn’t care less about exploring Mint.

Chris Titus’ windows utility will decrapify Windows quite a bit, including removing telemetry, copilot and much more stuff for those unable/unwilling to move to Linux.

For those a bit more adventurous he provides a Microwin install image creator that tweaks a standard ISO to be as light as possible, removing as much crap as possible during install, making install un atended, and creating a local account.
