Being downvoted doesn’t make you any less right.

That being said: I won’t be buying Bamboo again myself. The H2S is awesome, but my next machine will be RatRig/Prusa (European)or maybe even Snapmaker. Still waiting to see how they hold up after some more time, and if head swappers are better or worse than toolchangers like INDX.

I always thought of the CPU as the beating heart and the MoBo as the vessel/body.
At the same time: upgrading CPU often requires a new MoBo too, so I guess they are bound together anyways.

For the original question I'd say CPU + MoBo swap is a new machine. GPU and RAM are upgrades.

I physically disconnected all drives to force the EFI partition on the actual Windows drive. It still shat all over boot settings after the first major update.

Someone recommended I try rEFInd and it's been great. No update has forced me back into the UEFI to set boot order since.

Might be an ASUS MB thing, I never figured it out or bothered afterwards.

Let me paint a picture for you, friend: you have a power outage while playing games. Your drive is corrupted (yes, this happened to me).
Sony has removed the game from their servers, and you just lost your only copy, as you have no way to back it up.
It is now gone forever, just like the movies they removed after selling.

You seem irritated that people push back at you, but they have valid points. Without a physical copy, you are no longer in control of the game/movie.

You also lose the ability to buy and sell used, which is a right you have with physical disks, but not with a digital license.

It’s ok to not care for physical media, but at least try to understand the point we’re trying to make. We want us all to have access to both digital and physical to choose freely. Why fight that when it’s a win/win for all of us?

Agreed.

I still keep and use my Windows partition quite often, and probably will for a long time.

I do find that more and more finds its way over to Linux though, which is very nice

I'm in this boat.

I don't drink a beer every day, but probably 2-3 times a week, I crack one while making dinner.
Not for any buzz, just because I genuinely enjoy the taste.
If I'm out, it's fine, and it also happens that I don't drink any for a couple of weeks because I need to be able to drive the kids somewhere.

I rarely ever party and get drunk. At most a couple of times a year.

Yeah I’m no expert, but this looks like extrution issue to me too.

My H2S looked similar in one corner, as the bowden tube from the factory is a tad bit to short, so the feed was uneven when it was curved/stretched to the max.
Replaced it with a 3 cm longer one, and it worked fine again.

I’d try a cold pull, then smaller test pieces. No point printing the whole bed when the issues are everywhere. When it’s nice, test the whole plate.

Good luck!

Unless the meassurement in your strip is wrong, I’d guess like you two that something in the FW makes it draw slightly more at idle.

An easy way to test this is to revert to an older FW. Can be done easily in Handy.
If that fixes it, you know it’s the printer. If not, then it’s probably the sensor in your strip.

Good luck!

I can’t comment on connectivity, as that is a personal preference.
I respect it though, but have given up myself.
Having a safer car with creature comforts outweighs the benefit of complete privacy for me. I’d probably think differently if I didn’t have a familiy to keep safe….

Regarding range: 500+ km is super nice, but not necessary for most people. Our shortest range EV is 406 WLTP, so realistically only 300 in winter conditions. That’s 2-3 hours of driving between every charge stop, which we need to do to eat/relax/use the bathroom anyways.
In summer it’s even further.
Charging takes 15-30 minutes, depending on SoC when we stop.

For any trip shorter than this and in every day life, we don’t need to stop at all as I can charge both at home and at work.
I get that might not be the case for most people, of course.

Just sit down and stop lying.

For those who can’t read Norwegian: Nationally, 98,6% of ALL cars sold in Norway in April this year were electric.
In every single fylke (state/region), the percentage was over 95%. He’s referencing total car pool, whick takes 20 years to replace.

This guy is full of shit for some unknown reason, but he’s sticking to it.

EV’s work fine in cold climates as proven every god damn winter in the Nordic countries alone.

I’m out if this dumb argument now. You were wrong, shit happens. Stop spreading lies in the future just because you like changing oil and spending all your savings on servicing your old fosil cars. The rest of us live in the present

This is just a straight up lie.

97,7% of all personal vehicles sold in Norway in May were EV’s.

Unless you claim only 2,3% of our population live north of Trondheim, you’re just full of shit.

And if your car stops working below 5 degrees, you have a shitty car. Both our EV’s worked fine in -30 just two years ago.
I had to charge more often, that was it
