What do you think about 2012? Is it true? (not the movie) .. Because they say that Mayan Calendar is up to December 21, 2012 only. What will happen then? Could this be the end of the world? What do you think?

Quite obviously not, unless a stone age civilization knew something we don't (which I doubt).

Think about it. Why would they need to make a calendar that long? Chances are, they probably went "Guys, we're not going to make it to that time, why bother with it?". ;)

Obviously, Russia is going to use their space nuke to upset the moon's orbit. It will then fall on us.

We are all Chuck Norris' children. Nothing will happen if he has another.

Did they expect the mayas to make an infinite calender then? They had to stop somewhere.:nuts:

December 21, 2012 is just the end of a major cycle in the Mayan calender. Not the end of the calendar. The only thing that happens is that they would add yet another "digit" to their complete date representation, kinda like we "did" from year 999 to 1000. They would probably get drunk and party a lot too.

Of course, why wouldn't it end? It has to end some day. The Mayans decided it will end 2012, and the will of the mayans is, well, the will of the mayans. IT WILL END 2012.

No, but seriously? Why the hell would the world end just because the mayans couldn't bother with an unnessacary uber big calendar. It's just dumb. I do want to see the movie tho :rolleyes:

What's with the Mayans anyway? Who are these people? Are they special? So, what if there calendar is up to 2012? .. You're right, I think they just run out of stone to carve their calendar. Hahaha! :D

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
