Just got my Saturn 4 ultra, and it just doesn't seem to be very good. I'm toying with the idea of sending it back and paying the restocking fee, but that's a lot of money (and shipping fuel, etc, etc) to waste.

Upgraded from a Mars 2 Pro and Mars 4, and I just can't believe how clunky the Saturn is. The build plate is too tall and too crammed into the case to make a decent tilting adapter, and a ton of resin gets wasted when removing parts. The touchscreen UI is almost as bad as the Mars 4, with horrible use of screen space (multiple prints with same name but different date at the end? Too bad, you can't see any part of the title past the first two words) and poorly designed features.

I'd be interested to know if anyone has this printer or a similar one figured out, and is actually enjoying using it.

You can! Browse to the location, and then click menu button > "Download data here" and the questions will appear.

I'm modelling a pencil holder version of the star projector at the planetarium I volunteer for.

 

Openscad wanted about 25 gig of RAM to crunch this.

The book "Talking to Strangers" by Malcolm Gladwell does an excellent job of explaining how access to convenient means of suicide increase rates, which contradicts the common argument that suicidal people will find other means to die if guns are less accessible. It turns out suicidal behavior is often situation and time specific, and removing tools for self harm means better chances of improvement.

I use both and rarely ever make use of file storage on nextcloud. Syncthing is awesome software.

Nope. That website's toxicity was one of the largest hurdles to learning to write software for me.

Just reporting back that the transparencyreport page just says "some pages on this site are unsafe" without elaboration. It then offers that if I want details I have to give it individual page links at a time to see if they're the cause of the alert... Ugh.

Thank you for the tip!

That sucks, yeah. Thanks for sharing, its good to know that its not just me.

Thank you for the link, but it just returns "no data" on my site.

I'm not, I guess I wouldn't be surprised if this happened and I was though. Thanks for the context.

 

Started this morning. All of my personal tools like nextcloud and RSS reader were blocked, and I had to go manually override that screen for each one. Unacceptable.
