its bambu. a Chinese predatory brand trying to become the Apple of 3d printing. of course they're going to follow the Apple style of advertising, dei included.
They're way worse. They're like the ea of 3d printing. I've mentioned their cloud connection below but even their website is fucked. It has a download limit of 5 unless you go incognito mode or sign up. No other major stl site has that, thingiverse or printables. They only do so cause they want your data.
Not only that but they've been paying creators money only if they posts exclusives to their site so what happens is creators end up deleting their models on other sites and just having it be on their site. Its very fucked up and against the spirit of open source 3d printing
nah, the printers are good but the company is a bit too dodgy for me. A lot of the usual china shenanigans from them. Louis Rossman did a fairly good breakdown of their last shenanigan but it's basically changing TOS after sales to try and force people to go to their cloud services for continued accessibility and updatability of their printers.I don't need my pc to send files to china to send back to my printer to tell my printer what to print.
Plus apparently, laser cutting is dangerous as fuck depending on what you're cutting.

Yes. You want to read the MSDS section for burning of any material you're going to laser cut. Especially plastics.
Some are fine, some stinky, and some are death.
Fiberglass depends on the resin used, but you weren't getting through glass with 10W or 40W desktop laser.
Raw carbon fiber is actually fine from what I've heard, but coated stuff depends on exact epoxy/resin again.
Yeah, I hadn't really thought through all the problems with it all. That really is a killing machine right there and PVC, carbon fibre and other common things will no doubt be finding their way into its mechanisms.
Still seems really cool and I imagine in about 10 or so years when refills can be homebrewed onto it and communication with the mothership isn't needed it could be really useful for lots of things :)
laser engraving in a 3d printer sounds good in theory, becuase both are a toolhead on an xy gantry, but in practice theres a ton of complications.
for one, laser cutters/etchers stink and emit a ton of very nasty chemicals. you need to run the laser in a dedicated workshop, whereas a 3d printer, as long as you stick to common filament types, can be run in a living room.
the only situation you'd want this if you have a very small, but very well ventilated workshop.
otherwise, get a separate 3d printer and a separate laser.
What is this cringy complaint? The son is not "purely white" you can see that he has Asian features. The wife is clearly Asian and the kida are hapas, not "mulatto". It's not "dei slop" for a White guy to be fucking and breeding a tan-skinned Asian woman and them starting an upper-class family that has expensive hobbies and lifestyle that involve use of a 3D printer. And I say that as a White male who is not even into Asian women.

That man looks pure white to you? Really?
You on commission for this thing EP?
Because I'm sold!
I know the family are multi-ethnic but that advert works, I want one! :)

Here’s a list of material materials to not engrave or cut on a laser
ABS: avoid at all costs. emits hydrogen cyanide gas, which is highly toxic even in small amounts
PVC: this will literally kill you
releases chlorine gas, and is corrosive to both your lungs and the printer
Fiberglass/ carbon fiber : just don’t
PTFE: can also kill you releases, fluorine gas

I'm not no.
But I'm sure you'll find the right guy some day :)

The problem is bambu is targeting the noob and dumb crowd so i expect a lot of their customers to die suddenly after buying this
