Is there any application that updates as frequently as Discord? I thought it was Electron, what are they even doing downloading '10+' updates every time I relaunch it?
35mm: a lamp.
IMAX: a lamp that grows your dinner.
Nolan gets it. The good part is always at the bottom of the frame.
Phytoring is a 3D printable hanging lamp with a microgreens tray in the base. Print it, plant it, eat it.
200+ backers already have the files and late pledge is still open.

Bambu Lab picked the Apple model.
Closed ecosystem. Cloud-dependent. Their way or the highway.
A maker who literally called Bambu's CEO just wrote the most important piece in 3D printing right now - and it changed how I see the whole debate.
🧵🧵🧵
Makers are unsatisfied by nature.
They'll improve their tools with or without your permission.
Bambu Lab doesn't need to open source anything. They just need to:
- Let users customize their own printers
- Let users modify their slicers without losing cloud access
That's it.
Keep the source closed. Keep the polish.
But work with the community instead of against it.
That's the Pebble way - and it's the only path where Bambu Lab and its users both win.

Bambu's Vortek can't run soft TPU. 50 μm accuracy after every swap.
Creality's KliTek™ was built for flexibles. Hits 25 μm.
Here's the full breakdown: 🧵
Side by side:
Waste reduction: Vortek 58% - KliTek™ 80%
Accuracy: Vortek 50 μm - KliTek™ 25 μm
Soft TPU: Vortek ✗ - KliTek™ ✓
Flow rate: Vortek standard - KliTek™ 15 mm³/s
Better specs across the board.
Creality just announced something wild for Q3 2026.
KliTek™ multi-channel nozzle system:
- 5-second nozzle switches
- 80% less filament waste
- 25 μm repositioning accuracy
- Soft TPU at 15 mm³/s (7x faster than standard)
- 80A + 95A hardness in a single print
Multi-material printing is about to look very different.
Replying to @Creality3dP
@Creality3dP just teased something that could change multi-material printing forever.
KliTek™ - automatic nozzle-changing. No pausing. No swapping by hand. Just print.
More colors. More materials. More possibilities.
