I switched from FFX to Chrome back in the day because Chrome tabs were all independent processes in task manager, and one crappy website wouldn't kill my whole browser.

When Google started their war on addons, I switched back to Firefox.

Being next to the sink, might be a good idea to drill drain holes into the bins so water doesn't get trapped in the bottom. Otherwise pretty cool! Next gridfinity step would be making some kind of purpose built holder for the flosser picks and the toothbrush head.

Dang this is seriously cool. I wonder how much space the whole workflow will take up on a workbench, and of course how dusty the room it's in will become.

Yes but NOT traveling back in time to cause the black plague results in all kinds of worse timeline shenanigans.

My resin printer was powered off with resin in the vat for about 7 months. Last night I turned it on, gave it a job, and I woke up to a successful print.

My inkjet printer was powered off for 2 weeks. Last night I turned it on, gave it a job, and was instantly disappointed with a streaky, blotchy output. Running a clean cycle just made the output worse.

Why are 2D printers so terrible despite decades of development? What are some 2D printers this community has had good interactions with/would recommend?
