@hwang for large, flat PETG prints on core one I'm using everything I've got: PEI, hair spray, and mouse ears.
BTW in case you didn't notice, tomorrow at 1777777777 it's going to be 1777777777 epoch time.

Happy to see that `jgd` is now up on CRAN.

An alternative #rstats graphics device that's fast and lightweight (mostly pure C). Try it out with our VS Code extension or Deno server. More details: https://github.com/grantmcdermott/jgd

Introducing AI in RStudio

Today we’re introducing AI in RStudio. We’ve embedded a specialized agent directly into RStudio so it can read your live session context and provide more accurate assistance for data science and analysis.

@hwang @3dprinting also I think auto retract can be disabled in settings since 6.4.0-RC2.

Or even per filament type.

@hwang @3dprinting I store filament in dryboxes because I live in a humid area.

The filament auto retraction is a game changer for me. I don't have to wait for the nozzle to heat up to remove the filament back inside the box.

@bear_lab and just to add, there are some users claiming that both Creality (Marlin) and Sovol (Linux) violated GPL terms. I cannot properly fact-check this, but we should not forget this when blaming Prusa for misleading marketing. IMHO, these are totally different levels of anti-FOSS behavior.

@bear_lab cannot comment on the legal aspect of hardware copyright.

But I would imagine prusa contributed significantly more to bambu studio/orca slicer than the other way around. Full time developers assigned to a project for a decade (!) counts for something.

OCL is definitely misleading and not OSHW. But I think Prusa is still one of the biggest allies of open source 3D printing (especially soft). It's ok to push them, but we should push actively anti FOSS companies like Bambu much more.

@bear_lab from what I understand Creality didn't truly shared their latest designs. For sovol fair; but aren't those essentially Voron clones?

So to me prusa seems to be on the level of RatRig (non-commercial) + they share a lot of important slicer code.

Do you know if LDO gives back to Voron design/employ some of the engineers?

I wish Prusa could do more open source. But it seems they're still the largest open source 3D printing contributors by impact. I might be wrong ofc.

@bear_lab honest question: are there 3D printer *companies* doing a better job at open sourcing their hardware (and software)?
