Here's my results after several attempts, including latest updates of MacOs Ventura. I'm not going any further because I would loose functionality of many of my recording plug-ins. Moreover, I simply don't like or have no interest in all the bs bells and whistles Apple has added calling them features and benefits, as most are just user profile-building, intrusive AI nonsense. Any alternate distros compatible with earlier versions of MacOs, would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Results: "Dangerously buggy macOS version detected! You have a machine with a ProMotion display, and you are running macOS Sonoma earlier than 14.2 or your System Firmware is in this range. Due to critical macOS bugs, this combination can lead to an unbootable system under certain conditions. Please upgrade your system to macOS 14.2 or later and run this installer again to continue. This version resolves the bug and will make your machine safe again. If you have multiple macOS installs, we recommend not booting macOS Sonoma versions prior to 14.2 on this machine."
So, things about support material. 1) if you design something, try designing it in a way where you can print it with as little support as possible, meaning, design the backing plate to be flat or have angles that are 45° or steeper. 2) when slicing, be aware that not everything needs supports and bridging is possible. I don't know what slicer you use but in most slicers you can enable things like "don't support bridges" or something like that. You can also use custom supports where you paint the areas where you want supports to be generated. 3) look at the settings of the support material. So the things like which kind of support, the spacing of the lines within the support and most importantly the Z offset spacing between the top layer of the support and the part. There should be a spacing because more space between the support and part means that the support is easier to remove. Too much space leads to worse surface quality though, so it's good to test and tweak. I would also recommend making test prints that tell you the overhang angle, bridging length, tolerances and other stuff you can use for your printer, filament and movement speed combination. Generally, place supports only where needed, try to print the part in the correct orientation, make sure your printbed is level, try to design parts to be suitable for 3D printing and try to use as little support material as possible. Also, the multitool case thing would have been much better printed on the back since then it shouldn't have needed any supports. And with the correct z offset of your printer nozzle (in the printer settings, generally in the same settings as bed leveling) and the right elephant foot compensation, the surface quality of the first layer should be as good if not even better than the top layer. It just has the surface of your build plate. Hope that helps. I don't have a bamboo lab printer so I don't know the specifics of the printer. But most things are very similar and when using the correct preset for your printer, you can use pretty much any slicer you want, since they are also generally pretty similar.
Thanks a lot! I trust your review. As an amateur user, I get sceptical when green tech is offered. I want tech I can rely on, even if Big Bad Tech has made it for me. I can't spend time as a test pilot for well intended attempts to break free from the grip of BBT and some reviewers on YT obviously would like to recruit me as such. You don't!
Not for the money. 15 years ago you would be able to buy a mid range GPU with the 150 pounds, at best. For 2024 it is a good enough base machine, though obviously if you are looking for 1080p high for modern games, you won't be able to get that.
For £300 this is not worth it, you can pick up a Chromebook Plus for less, with much better hardware and performance. There are also Chromebooks with equal specs for about £150.
I found this video really useful can you do something similar with the HP Z620/Z840 which have "newer" xeon CPUs I'd really like to know the best graphics card to pair with these
I just watched a video about Vaxen servers and IMHO that’s exactly how real computer should sound 😉 Just joking, that’s cool project, I wish you good luck! 👍
Part 2 is now live, taking a look at a better paring of GPU for this machine, and realistic performance settings ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-teEwPSVEYfY.htmlsi=zUOcQa1ZE8a2lewG
Can you get RU-vid to work on it? What gyrations do you have to go through to use google? Is there an alternative app to RU-vid that lets you access the same videos? Thank you!
I'm a big fan of PowerPC Macs, especially the iMac G5 and PowerMac G5... I like your video and I would like to have a follow up video where you try different softwares on this iMac and specially try to browser modern websites and see how it renders them... My biggest request to you is to try to run Java JDK 11 or higher on it and see if that's possible... I'm a Java developer and I would like to explore the possibility of writing Java software on the PowerPC Mac.
Yes, we need a second part. I installed Lubuntu 16 on my iMac G5 about four or five years ago. But ist is outdated nowadays. I want to give Adelie a try. By the way, you had to pronounce it the french way, something like ay-dey-lee.
earlier this year I was working on porting Debian 12 to IBM POWER7, I ran into issues with firefox not compiling on Big Endian and gave up. Also I had the bad version of xz (yikes).
the reason I gave up is because the kernel devs decided in their infinite wisdom to push code from the IBM SAS driver team that deprecates the SAS controller in this machine from being able to use SATA SSDs (even though it fully worked before), they said it was because the SATA was only for optical drives, ugh
The fans ramping can be a symptom of a non Mac hard drive - this era essentially Mac hard drives had a temp sensor in there lack of that sensor causes that ramping. You can buy insert cables to replicate this sensor.
flew with them few years ago from Amsterdam via Lisbon to Brazil, A lot of people complain they are cramped inside the TAP planes. They should check the legroom and reviews of the company/companies before purchase a ticket. I had a really pleasant flight with TAP due to the extra legroom. Also you can bring an extra suitcase in the belly of the plane. Is it the extra money worth it? Yes! Also depends on the flightroute, lay-over and time you have to be on board. Some euros or dollars less is no reason to be in a cramped position for 8.5 hours.
Thanks for the video! I spent 3k on a wearable years ago with a 640 head display . It was not ready for prime time! Providing we don't start a nuclear war, I've only got a decade or so left, so I hope they get something really cool soon! I'm going to need something to see, hear, think and speak for me in 20 years! Elon! Where's my chip!
