That I am aware of. But without any circulation the hot air will simply cool down and condensate once I turn off the dryer, wouldn't it? Leaving either highly saturated air or even some water droplets, ready to be absorbed by the filament again

    I still don't understand how those cheap filament dryers work: they fully enclose the spool and heat up the air for a few hours. But where does the moist air go? It's still trapped in there with the filament. It makes no sense!

    I always leave the filament dryer a bit open so the warm air can escape, taking the moisture to a better place (far away from the filament)

    Also schon klar: wir hassen alle die Deutsche Bahn. Aber ich denke du übertreibst schon ein bisschen; ich muss nicht jeden Job machen, den ich für ausreichend bezahlt halte und den Begriff der Zwangsarbeit muss man auch nicht so entwerten.

    Yeah those communities are wild. Before I bought my own printer I thought 3D printing is mostly fixing your printer and buying better parts and bed leveling and tuning etc.

    Wasn't looking forward to it so I bought an off-the-shelf printer with minimal assembly from a "boring" Chinese brand - couldn't be happier with it, it just prints without any hassle and I have no urge to switch firmwares or tinker with the printer itself instead of with the printed stuff. To each their own I guess.

    (Still plugged in a raspberry pi for octoprint and did some initial calibration for the filament of course ...)

    Züge verursachen mit Abstand die wenigsten Emissionen, während Binnenschiffe immerhin 2-3x weniger CO2 verursachen als LKW (pro Container und Kilometer). Aber kapazitätsmäßig ist ein Schiff natürlich unschlagbar bzw. unsere tolle Bahn-Infrastruktur nicht in der Lage, das alles ersetzen zu können...

    Gerade Schauma gibt es btw zumindest im deutlich plastiksparsameren Nachfüllpack, da ist es nur noch eine dünne Tüte. Für Leute, die aus welchen Gründen auch immer nicht all-in auf feste Seife gehen wollen.

    Pretty much the beginning of Manna, a short story that is over 20 years old but seems to be more relevant than ever (or at least a good 1-2 hours read). [edit: typo]
