It's going faster than it has been, but it's about the same as it usually was until a couple weeks when it got all slow and laggy and bad and terrible and so on and so forth.

Yea, it seems faster. Though not by much, it was fast before too.

Edit, it just reloaded all the cached images after posting this, and it took a lil bit longer than I'd expect. But it's a 1 time thing so w.e.

This is like "Too Fast and Too Furious"...

Press Enter to load a thread, and it shows up 50 posts within a split second. I thought I had overclocked my CPU by accident...

It's going faster for me, most of the time when it seemed to be going really slow before was due to my shitty internet as much as it was down to the site itself (my wireless modem has a habit of cutting out for a few seconds completely at random).

it would probably be hard to tell if there is a speed difference unless pages suddenly load instantly.

What if pages loaded BEFORE you clicked? That, Mister Ghan_04, would be awesome. Albeit probably unnoticed with the new ultra speed that has since become TheHelper.net.

According to the polls, it seems the server change only affects frequent members.

What? o_O

There's no significant speed difference for me. It could be faster or even slower, though I haven't noticed anything. So I voted for 'the same'. As long as it isn't slower for anybody, then it's good :thup:.

@Tom I noticed a slight internet speed increase, but I didn't know if that was Qwest being awesome or not.

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    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
