I just had a thought when responding to one of the comments here.
The possibility that the one power mod account is a managed account that is shared among multiple individuals.
For a big company, the one mod account could be just a placeholder and then the account is forwarded to cheap tech workers in India or Pakistan (or some other place in the world that has enough English language skills) that use the account in blocks of hours every day. The one account could literally work round the clock 24 hours a day forever as it gets passed around between six or eight people. If you had eight people working on it round the clock, they would all be working on it at three hour increments each. Which makes it manageable for one person to focus their energy and do some sort of quality work. And because they are cheap labor, they don’t have to be in different time zones, you just force them to work at any and all hours of the day.
So instead of showing the community that you hired 20, 30 or 40 cheap tech workers to act as mods for pennies, it just appears as one two or three professional mods that magically seem to be capable of doing the work of multiple people.
Thanks. We were moving, so I took some photos when I disassembled it. That was two houses ago now, and it's currently set up in roughly the same configuration, but a bit lower and with fewer duct runs (planer, Table saw, and "other"). One of the simple PLA blast gates came apart in one of the moves, but for how simple they were they've held up well.
Yup! Unsurprisingly, performance is noticeably worse with the bells and whistles turned on, but there is the option in video settings to turn global illumination for lumen off if one’s system struggles too much.
you’re seeing elecrochemical corrosion. if you scratch aluminum in such a way that:
oxide layer is removed, and
finely divided copper is deposited, and
oxide layer can’t reform
you’ll see rapid corrosion of aluminum. normally, alumnium doesn’t corrode because of very tight oxide layer. here, oxide layer is removed first by scratching and this also deposits copper in electrical contact with aluminum. then, citrate can bind aluminum removing some of oxide layer, making aluminum more exposed and so more reactive. if you used gallium as heat transfer compound (sp?) then gallium will also disturb oxide layer and make corrosion of aluminum faster. copper elements are in this case actually protected from corrosion (by dissolving aluminum)
Start with the gasket. I replaced one in my Kohler toilet. Easy and cheap. You have to remove the cylinder to replace it, so you’ll have the opportunity to inspect it for damage.
The twisted chain was 100% the issue. I’m so amazed that you were able to catch that in that shitty video I uploaded above. Thanks again so much for your sharp eye!
