If you poke around a bit more: * The display is ad-free, but there are ads added at print time. (There are numerous competitors out there which will do this without the ads.) * There's a $6/mo subscription for sites who want to do a "clean

Scribophile sounded interesting, but I left when I found out that I need an account to actually see anything. You even have a free user tier, so WTF? You don't have to take my word for this either. Some basic (free) analytics can give you a

Existing 3DPs tend to require significant maintenance by expert or semi-expert operators. I don't see anything here showing that you've solved that.

Skipping over the need for an electrician to install the things, good luck building a wifi-controlled wall outlet in small quantity for $20. A cheap solid-state relay is already going to run you at least $5 in 1ku quantity. Then add the rad
