The new hotness in the open source MMU space is ArmoredTurtle's BoxTurtle project, which seeks to be an open source equivalent of the Bambu AMS. I'm still working on the parts for mine, but from everything I've seen the build is way less fiddly (and as a result more reliable) than the ERCF.

Seconding kit Vorons. While they certainly aren't the cheapest option, they aren't that much more expensive than other higher end core XY machines. Fabreeko* has the 250/300mm Trident kit at 1.2k and 350mm 2.4 at 1.4k + an extra $150 or so for printed parts. Compared to the new Core One at between 950 - 1.2k or the X1C also at 1.2k you're looking at an extra $150 to 350, but that also comes with build volume increases (both the Prusa and Bambu are at roughly 250 mm³). Definitely wouldn't recommend them as a first printer, but Vorons are shining examples of what's possible with open source (and they're absolute workhorses too).

* Highly recommend them with glowing praise for being all around fantastic (they also run sales on the regular, though kit deals are usually reserved for special occasions like black Friday, or Clee day)

That's awesome! Wishing you both the best!

Lol, it actually kind of is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Steel

Migrating my laptop to Ubuntu and literally just ran into this with Thunderbird- the profile is in the Snap directory instead of the parent home folder like the docs say.

Echoing the other comment, I loved my Pebble because it was a smartwatch that was a watch first and foremost and everything after that was added to make life easier (rather than to pile on selling points that someone might want but that nobody needs). For example, the thing had a week long battery life (irrc the first gen iWatch had something like less than a day), but even when it hit the bottom 10% of the tank, it turned off non-essentials (like Bluetooth, calendar, customizations, etc) and just kept going on a default watchface. The UI was simple, easy to navigate, and generally useful. Physical buttons meant that I never had to fight with a touchscreen to clear notifications or check my calendar.

Plus the whole thing was stupid customizable. On the software side, the community grew a fairly sizable market for watchfaces to show pretty much whatever suited your fancy (TimeStyle was always one of my favorites, but I was also fond of this Pokemon one). On the hardware side, the watch used a standard 20mm band so you could go as far as to match it to your outfit if you wanted (I had a nice metal band to go with my Steel so I could dress it up for college career fairs (and have my calendar send me a reminder when it was time to duck off to class)).

E3D makes pretty decent stuff and is based out of the UK- it's just annoying and expensive to get ahold of everywhere else (insert generic grumbles about Revo nozzles). Otherwise, I've had good luck with Phaetus nozzles, but I'm not sure that pricing/ availability looks like in the UK.

Lemon it's January.

Why do you print like you're running out of time?
