Not only did they switch to token billing and increase the multipliers, they started auto selecting 6x and 9x models more often than before. The UX is such that you don’t find out what model it chose until after the request is complete.

I wonder how their slicer is handling the infill angles. I suspect the bridge detection is only kicking in on the top layer, which ensures the infill angle is perpendicular to the gap. The bottom layer is going to follow a global angle and

That Vagabond Builds video... They edited it, but left in a claim it had a frunk. The commentary felt like engagement optimized stream of consciousness blather. They cut out shots of the car being moved and never showed it being driven.

They let you write python programs as long as it’s from memory though. I wonder what the code golf looks like for a rudimentary python CAS. If you could evaluate the equation without needing to parse it, I bet you could get a lot of mileage

You are missing the section on “x402, UCP, and ACP”: monetization. If the end goal is to get a cut of your paid agent traffic, they have a strong incentive to block free access from automated sources.
