Based on standard soldering iron temperatures of 620°F-700°F and the melting point of lead (621°F), it is unlikely that lead fume will be generated during electronic soldering, unless the solder is heated to lead’s vaporization temperature of 3182°F.
ChatGPT currently has this message in small text below the message prompt, but I'm not sure how long it has been there: "ChatGPT can make mistakes. Consider checking important information."
But I think that message is kind of underplaying it. The fact that it can make mistakes doesn't necessarily mean that the average person will think it is completely making something up.
There are many more papers that are less cited that will never get looked at in enough detail to discover fraud.
They currently only use the load cells for bed leveling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7ETSVu04ao&t=940s
I could be wrong, but I would expect that the load cell readings would be far too noisy in order to determine the height of the nozzle while printing. Even if they were accurate, different materials would also behave differently due to different viscosities.
With a BLTouch, you need to adjust the z-offset, because the nozzle tip and the BLTouch trigger height are not the same. Once that is calibrated, it should continue to work fine as long as the sensor is working properly.
I think it mainly comes down to the accuracy of the sensor. If your sensor gives you a +-0.03mm reading when probing the same spot, then you will have high and low spots in your bed mesh that you can't correct with z-offset.
This could explain your issues with the BLTouch you mentioned in another thread here. I have various brands of knockoff BLTouch sensors, and the worst one had a +-0.02mm range when measuring points, which made it impossible to get a good bed mesh. The one I replaced it with had about a +-0.005mm accuracy, which fixed my issues with the low and high spots.
Vorons also have a nozzle probing design: https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Tap
If the companies had bought all of the ebooks, then they might be in the clear.
The equivalent here would be Prime offering a free ad-supported channel and Google requiring them to hand over a percentage of their ad revenue for the channel.
$500 million per year / 430 million users = $1.16 per user per year
$1.16 / 12 months = $0.10 per user per month.
The Apollo developer tested the official Reddit app, and it makes a similar amount of API calls: https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/comments/13wsiks/api_upda...
