    I LOVE that Dr. Tao said they were nervous about the Creality K1 but after seeing it they calmed down, haha! Totally true!

    • @HiGHrVOLTAGE
      @HiGHrVOLTAGE Год назад

      That's hilarious. I was days away from buying a bambu printer, and saw Creality announce their "competition" so I waited months to see it come out. As soon as I saw their promo video showing that blocky trash print riddled with "inconsistencies" I bought a bambu. The K1 is not even close ...

      As amazing as all of this is we all know that in China there is no such thing as a private company. Every single corporation including this one has a Chinese Communist party member that is by law required to steal intellectual property. Why is this the case? Because they do not believe in intellectual property in China and they have an authoritarian boot on the neck of every citizen and business owner. This person does not own their business, the Chinese Communist party owns this business. They simply allow him to benefit from his brain because they know they will be stealing all of the intellectual property through the bamboo handy app. Even when this printer is in lan mode it still is connected to your Wi-Fi network. If you think everything I am saying is too political all you have to do is look up the super fish exploit in Lenovo computers. It was a piece of hardware that the Chinese Communist party installed in Lenovo computers so that they can hack into the United States government. There are thousands of cases of Chinese companies stealing intellectual property that are on record, and once again the law requires this. What is so disturbing to me is how everyone who brings this up gets shot down immediately as somebody who is negative or too political. I highly suggest you educate yourself if you run a business with these printers.

    a lot of people dont realize this, asking about waste on ams... the ams very elegently solves the biggest problem for reliability of mmu systems by introducing a cutter below the extruder and above the hotend. this completely solves "the tip problem". and makes it the most reliable mmu on the market, period. the small amounts of waste are way less problematic than entire failed prints. can this be further improved? sure, but it was a game changing improvement to begin with.

      Agree. And people need to understand that the amount of already molten filament is relative to the size of the hot zone. Just like most high speed hot ends, the hot zone has to be longer than usual which is the reason why more filament has to be flushed.

    39:12. This is the exact thing that makes cloud services dangerous in general, is that they provide backdoors into your network. The fact the printer is connected to their servers, allowing them to create a reverse TCP tunnel back through your NATed network, which is what allows them to control the printer remotely. This also means the printer can be turned into a zombie remotely, and that it can then be used to launch malicious attacks on your network from behind your NATed interface. The real problem here isn't so much that you're exposing your designs to their servers, it's that you are providing a backdoor to your network, in a central location one might look for it from no less (creating a honey pot), which by extension greatly reduces the security of your network, as it's a foot hold from where one could launch a direct attack on any of your other systems. This situation could happen for any number of reasons from hackers gaining control of the cloud service (which does happen) to governments doing the same (which also happens).

    How can you not appreciate/respect this guy for putting himself out there. He's not worried at all about saying something he shouldn't.
    I'm on the fence trying to decide which top model from any manufacturer to choose and I think I narrowed it down to K1 Max or X1C, this guy is causing me to lean heavily towards Bambu Lab. That said, I may be waiting until an upgrade of the X1C comes out people who own them have some complaints. The problem is I have no idea when that will be and I'm totally unsatisfied with my Ender 3 s1 Pro.

    • @89nissancrawler

      I have two ender 3’s. I bought a p1s 6 weeks ago, it has ran nearly non stop, with the only issues being brittle old filament, and not letting my garolite plate heat up enough.
      I haven’t turned my ender 3’s on since, and I won’t. They’re going up for sale. I would buy another p1s before I turned an ender back on.

    Very cool. I've done so much research on which filament printer to buy as my first and I've wanted one for many years. I started with a resin printer (Yikes! But also Yay!) and knew someday I'd get a filament. I've definitely fallen in love with Bambu over the past year as I follow makers who post prints that have wowed me. Now getting to know the maker behind the printer, the hype and the criticism, and the roadmap for the printer I think I'll be a Bambu guy 😎

    Wow. This was a GOOD interview. You asked some tough questions and to Dr. Tao’s credit he was very earnest in answering them.
    In the last few months Bambu had been firing on all cylinders in terms of responding to customer needs such as the gantry being offered for sale for a really reasonable price. My opinion has really changed about them since last year.
    One question I dearly wish you had asked was how they feel about their parts being used by OTHER do it yourself builders. I’ve installed a BL hot end assembly on two home builds simply due to the incredible cost efficiency, for instance.

  • @JohnOlson

    re: Logging.. I think Bambu should publish what their log contains, redacting any company secrets using a sample log file from one of their printers. Until they do, those who don't trust them, or those who can't allow the logs to be sent due to security concerns will be left to using another printer, or using old outdated firmware.

    • @MalcolmBlk
      @MalcolmBlk Год назад

      What makes you say the logs are sent anywhere? As far as I can tell, the only way BL can get their hands on your logs is if you submit a support ticket (requiring you to share your logs).

    • @JohnOlson

      @@MalcolmBlk Its less about where they are sent, and more about what is in the logs that are sent.

    • @MalcolmBlk

      @@JohnOlson If they're not sent anywhere until you send them yourself, then the only reason to be concerned is that you'll need to share it to get support in case of an issue with your printer. If you're printing something that falls under NDA, I can see how sharing logs of the print would be problematic. To this I have 2 points:
      1. It looks like you are able to select the exact date/time range for the log you're uploading.
      2. What's stopping you from deleting the log of the NDA print, printing something you can share, and uploading this log instead?

      For my usage (hobbyist) sending such log data is not a problem. But the current way LAN was made is simply *BAD* . I would like LAN mode to be addition to cloud, too. For example I want to be sending jobs and see status over LAN when *I'm in that LAN* but when I'm outside of my LAN I should be able own VPN or use bambu cloud for the same thing. Also without limiting camera or other features to cloud only. Basically 2 switches: cloud on/off, LAN on/off and not "LAN only mode".

    The community's fear of patents is entirely unfounded FUD. If the patents actually covered open source work, then the patents shouldn't be issued because the idea is already in the public domain. If they cover that work and do get issued, they will be easily invalidated the moment they get enforced.

There are thousands of cases of Chinese companies stealing intellectual property that are on record, and once again the law requires this.
