I prefer digital books because of the following points:

  • There is a book price control in Germany, meaning that you can't get new physical books cheaper. This does not apply to digital books.
  • They take less physical space.
  • I can read them everywhere with either my Smartphone that I already have with me at all times or my tablet. I do not have to plan to read a book when I'm on the go.
  • I can quickly search for something in a reference book if I have it in digital form. This is not possible with physical books.

Only downside:

  • I need to have a device when I want to read a digital book. And this needs to be charged. But this is rarely a problem.

Oh, no. I love bandcamp. I don't want it to go down the drain. :c

Thank you very much. I think I have a project for the weekend :)

I was in the same position two months ago and decided to go with the Prusa MK4 kit with the enclosure. So far I'm happy with my purchase. The deciding factor for me was lastly the loudness of the device because I wanted to use the printer in my apartment. Reviews said that the printer is relatively quiet and I can confirm that. If the door to my "printer room" is closed I'm not able to hear it.

Some points about the MK4:

Positives:

  • It prints very fast with the new Input Shaper firmware
  • I can control the printer via LAN and WiFi (or print directly from a USB drive)
  • Excellent print quality
  • Open Source and spare parts are avaiable for a long time

Negatives:

  • Maintenance is complicated after installing the printer in the enclosure. You can only access the printer through the front door which makes reaching the sides of the printer difficult and removing the printer from the enclosure is not easy as well because you first have to disassemble the display unit.

I dont' have access to a Bambulab printer so I'm not able to compare both the Prusa MK4 and the Bambulab P1S. Nevertheless, I'm happy with my printer and can recommend it.

Cube 2: Sauerbraten seems to still be maintained. I haven't played it for a long time, though.

You can also download the *.vsix file of the desired extension from either Github or Microsoft's extension marketplace and install it manually by clicking on "Install from VSIX" in the Extensions menu.

This obviously doesn't solve the update problem and it is also questionable if this is in terms with the "Microsoft Terms of Use" of the extension.
