I’m so sad that he never went anywhere else with this himself, at least publically. Looks like there’s at least one team in Norway trying to take this concept to market though, hopefully they’re successful

I wouldn’t call it a japanese accent, that’s a bit different, but ルール is the loan word for rule, approximated with japanese syllabary of course. So it’s ru-ru instead of rool. The r is also kinda rolled like a Spanish R, between and R and L sounds.

A japanese accent tends to have awkward stress-accent as well as R and L sounding too similar if not identical, and some general phonemes just not sounding quite right since japanese doesn’t have them (the ae sound for instance). Words that end in consonants can be tricky too, but japanese has a few in very casual speech (mostly by just leaving off the u in tsu) so that concept isn’t so foreign.

I love the content on thingiverse, but the website itself, the search, the loading speed, just so much about it is awful. Printables by prusa is leagues better

Could be a bug in their crash handler, just like, infinitely looping and printing something over and over.

Either that, or they use specific tools that they can’t or won’t replace and which don’t work on Linux. Usually it’s creative or engineering software. There are usually good, Linux compatible, open source alternatives, but they’re not the same as industry standard tools that they need to know how to use and be 100% compatible with. Windows or MacOS is your only safe bet there.

If you’re a mere hobbyist and interested in learning new tools it’s an entirely different answer. You can try out the windows versions of the alternative software first, then try switching to Linux down the line when see the greener grass.
