STEP is at least marginally better than STL, because it can represent stuff like circles, instead of just a mesh.

It exports as F3D (probably readable by future versions of Fusion) and STEP (standard but with less fidelity) by default.

https://github.com/aconz2/Fusion360Exporter lets you bulk export all of your projects to local storage.

There is some good stuff in this release. Go to Preferences > GUI and check “Show sidebar collapse/expand button” + “Settings in non-modal window”. Now you can put the Preview and Print Settings windows side-by-side, and see the result of every change immediately. This also requires “Background processing”, but that’s been available for ages.

all the features you know and love from things up the tree

Did OrcaSlicer ever bring back the option to slice automatically when changing settings? It’s called “Background processing” in PrusaSlicer.

See pictures 3, 5, and 6 in the gallery. The perfect hexagon shape seems to be artificial.

PLA, but I’ve only used it for sanding small models so heat wasn’t an issue. PETG should be more heat resistant.

Yeah, but those sanding pads cost more than generic sandpaper.

Does mechanical error actually matter when using sandpaper? It seems like most of the error comes from holding the tool with your hands.

You could still fill a watertight gyroid lattice with resin, if both volumes are accessible.

Though the defects are probably useful for releasing air bubbles.

The floorists forgot to enable Linear Advance.

One day filament will come with DRM so you can’t print it backwards. Only a pirate would do that!

I was monitoring this print remotely (Bambu P1S), so I’m not sure what actually happened. It’s possible that it failed for other reasons, and then the tool head got tangled in spaghetti and disassembled itself.

cars left in the lot will have immediate search and rescue

Why do they have a lot, if parking there is considered an emergency?

After troubleshooting communications, flight controllers have confirmed Odysseus is upright and starting to send data. Right now, we are working to downlink the first images from the lunar surface.

Edit: they were wrong, it’s sideways.

That’s an unreasonably generic question. Buying almost anything in the modern world requires sifting through garbage to find the good stuff.
