Yo, same. Like, down to the number of infections, timespan, and being vaxxed. Anxiety spiked hard, memory is much worse, and my energy levels are just shot.
Thankfully Spravato treatments have me pretty much anxiety free again, but its been six years of hell with panic attacks and being unwilling to do normal things due to the anxiety.
Oh same. I was definitely grumpy about it, but I just couldn’t spend 3x the price for a Prusa at the time, even though I love them and really, really want one.
Right? I plan to alert the relevant sec folks today.
The short version is that I’ve had two of their printers and both failed due to mainboard issues, and I got no help with either after six months of getting the runaround, escalating, providing video evidence, etc. They sent me a mainboard replacement for one which also failed within days, and their solution was to send me a used printer that was the next class up in size, but two versions back. MicroCenter took pity on me after I showed them the 100+ email chain and refunded the printer fully even though I was well outside of the return period. I’ll never buy a single Elegoo product ever again.
It does, but you do need to apply a quick hack to get access to SSH and the Klipper web interface for some reason. Slightly annoying, but it was the best of all the options I had in my price range at the time.
Yep. An LG Ultragear monitor I’ve owned for about a year and a half just installed its crap somehow this morning on my work laptop which it’s been connected to for that long. I’m pretty sure however it’s doing it somehow bypassed the group policy and controls my company is enforcing on it. There’s no way they’ve white listed that kind of bloatware crap with how locked down they need to have these devices.
Second Sovol, and I would also recommend the Anycubic Kobra S1 - its been a great lil printer for me over the last year. Avoid Creality and Elegoo like the plague.
It didnt. He was a supreme shitbag before the stroke. He just went even harder mask-off after.
Saaame. I got so angry when they canceled it. It broke my trust in them to deliver an end to any shows. Then they kept doing it. Left quite a long time ago and will not go back. There’s just nothing worth the money on Neflix.
Yeah. Parting Glass will ruin me for quite a while.
I’ve been fairly happy with my Anycuboic Kobra S1. Decent price for performance and fairly easy to use. Fully enclosed, has the capability of multicolor without requiring it, and handles everything we’ve thrown at it with ease.
I’ll never recommend or buy Elegoo again after they provided the single worst customer service experience in my life. A total of three bad mainboards, six months of stalling, lies, and no resolution. If you care about after sale support, avoid them.
It’s very real. Ruined people’s lives and even negatively impacted plants and animals nearby. He also performed an experiment on people at a con with a control group and a group being hit with infrasound to prove out the effects.
Benn Jordan has an excellent video on this where he investigated infrasound and spoke to people impacted by it. Well worth watching.
Not necessarily. If the flow is slightly too high then you’ll get inconsistent results like this. I had this happen as well and it drove me nuts until I went through Orca’s flow rate calibrations like 4 or 5 times.
God that sucks. I’m sorry you have to deal with that. They truly are racing to the bottom.
The mainboards are unfortunately the common thread with all the issues I have with their printers. My Neptune 3’S mainboard has a well documented fault that they refuse to admit to and would not replace.
The Mars 5 Ultra that MC took back had a faulty board, and the replacement board was also faulty. It was three months of arguing, pics, video, and escalations before I told MC the story and they took pity on me and returned it. Elegoos concession was to send me the smallest bottle of their cheapest resin for a printer I no longer had.
I will never recommend an Elegoo printer after the last two I had. Both broke in unique ways and I got no support for either one. It took MicroCenter going above and beyond to resolve the issue with one by doing a return well past the return period. The manager was horrified when I gave her the extremely long and exhausting story of dealing with their awful support. The other printer is just a pile of parts now.
I picked up an Anycubic Kobra S1 and its been pretty great so far, though my bar is pretty low at this point, TBH.
That being said, they do use their own version of OrcaSlicer, but it works well enough for me, and you can flash some additional firmware into the printer to open it up more.
Suspend PreCheck, GE, and ongoing FEMA aid work “due to the shutdown” instead of the wildly expensive, unnecessary, cruel, and downright weird ICE ops. Every day this administration finds new lows to sink to.
How people supported and continue to support this trash heap of humanity bungling around as an administration I will never understand.
I’m glad there are 3rd party options. Elegoo shouldn’t be rewarded for making a modular device less so just to sell more bits at once.
That’s awesome progress without psychedelics. Like, huge. I’m finally reducing daily meds after doing weekly Spravato treatments for about six months. It definitely seems to have rewired a few things. The ketamine seems to do something similar to psychedelics in that regard. Once I got a few good sessions in with solid time dissociating everything seems to have gotten so much better in respect to anxiety.
