This 3D Printer Has Four Different Extruders. It's the Best Thing Snapmaker's Ever Made

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-11-10 03:00:00

Snapmaker's 3D printers don't always follow trends. The original Snapmaker was a small three-in-one machine that could be a 3D printer, laser cutter or CNC, depending on the type of tool head you use. For years, the company has iterated on that idea, culminating in the much larger Artisan model. After that, Snapmaker tried a dual-nozzle 3D printer called the J1. In my review of the J1, I liked that the nozzles could print two models at the same time, reducing the time it takes to print batches,

Qualcomm could shake things up with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 and 8 Elite 2

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Qualcomm might offer a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 and a Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 in the coming months. This suggests another naming convention shakeup of sorts for the brand’s top-tier smartphone processors. Qualcomm launched the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset late last year, which delivered a major leap forward for Android phones. This also marked a change in naming convention compared to the previous Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. However, it seems like both naming co

Make Your Own Backup System – Part 1: Strategy Before Scripts

Backup: Beyond the Simple Copy For as long as I can remember, backup is something that has been underestimated by far too many people. Between flawed techniques, "Schrödinger's backups" (i.e., never tested, thus both valid and invalid at the same time), and conceptual errors about what they are and how they work (RAID is not a backup!), too much data has been lost due to deficiencies in this area. Nowadays, backup is often an afterthought. Many rely entirely on "the cloud" without ever asking
