Bambu Lab’s network plugin API will now be off-limits to third-party slicers. You will have to use Bambu Studio or slice, save the gcode then upload it using a separate Bambu Connect application.

He discovered this information about his $900 camera but has found that it also applies to other models, likely the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III.

The British Automobile Association (AA) used to have a network of operatives on bikes (cycle scouts) who would salute members displaying the AA badge if they were approaching a police speed check.

This warning activity was tested in court and found to be illegal, as interference with the police undertaking their duties. Their response to the judgement was to switch the warning method to NOT saluting members if they're approaching a speed trap because apparently they couldn't be found culpable for inaction. So they would only salute members if the coast was clear. A bit like a warrant canary.

I struggle to understand how mid range digital compact cameras are so bad. I have to use them for work (for reasons below) and usually at night with the flash.

So the camera flash is obviously far superior to a phone flash but apart from that, my phone (Note 20 Ultra) dominates all the Olympus and Ricoh cameras I've had in recent years. When it's raining or foggy and I have to take a photo, I am forced to use my phone instead of the company supplied camera. If I need to do a video clip, again the phone is my go to. Looking towards the sun, same again.

If I could use my phone for all the photographic records I take at work then I would but I still rely on the form factor of the camera which is more resilient amongst tools and dirt and on-screen display which shows a sequential photo/filename reference that I can quickly note down.

How does a £1000 phone have such an incredible set of cameras which destroy the dedicated camera on a £300-400 digital compact?

I really like Nosferatu and I suspect anyone else who does would really enjoy "Shadow of the Vampire" (2000) with John Malkovich, Willem Dafoe and Eddie Izzard.

Hi pjc50, are you Scottish?

When David Shepherd (brand director for Topman) said Topman customers only wore a suit for their first interview or their first court appearance in 2001, I was sure it would be the end of them.

Didn't seem to bother people though. Maybe the "hooligans or whatever" who shop there don't pay any attention to the news?

"Negative pressure"? Ughhh!

I have bought and sold hundreds of invertebrates around the world, all transported by standard mail services.

I've sent probably 40 parcels successfully and received around 80 in the past 15 years. We avoid sending them in winter, if it's not the height of summer (depending on species) we enclose heat packs. They are always extremely well insulated, ventilated and padded. Poor packaging and mailing is heavily criticised in the pet invertebrates hobby, people are ostracised if they continue to endanger livestock or potentially cause injury to mail workers.

I had one parcel containing dozens of centipedes from China damaged, with centipedes escaping.

I had a parcel from Germany containing tarantulas sat at the post office for days because the postman on foot thought the parcel was too big and the one with the van disagreed. Tarantulas died.

I have some limited experience of mailing reptiles in the UK from around 15-20 years ago but it's heavily frowned upon, probably illegal and reputable dealers will only use pet couriers. I could imagine a small snake could be mailed safely but I'm also horrified at the thought of mailing a bearded dragon or chameleon.

Wouldn't WiFi in its initial days be 802.11 legacy or systems prior to the IEEE standard such as WaveLAN?

You are right though. I vaguely remember messing about with WaveLAN and I don't recall it being as flaky as some of the early 802.11 systems.

So he can leave the embassy now?
