    Might not help you a lot to decide but something to take into consideration… While bambulab printer is close to plug and play (can’t talk for there others you mentioned), because of closed source, finding fixes to some issues can be sometimes problematic. You can find documentation but way less than other printers as they hide a lot of knowledge…

    Your friend may not have issues with it yet but it if you go on bambu lab discord server, you will see that many people are having issues. What I mean is all printers can have a lot of different issues so don’t believe that if you take a p1s, you won’t have any problems. 1 person may not have much issues for a long time but meanwhile 10 people will struggle.

    By the way, some may think “another bambulab hater blablabla” while reading my comment but I have 3 printers and one of them is an A1, so no, I’m not a hater, overall I like it but that will be my last bambulab printer for sure.




  • You already had some good advices but something I haven’t seen mentioned. If you use Kodi (and probably a couple others media player), you could use some sub plugin like open subtitle (forgot other names) to fetch subtitles on the fly when you will play video. It can be hit or miss at first, but subtitles name are like release name (title, quality, release group). So if you often encounter a release group that do your sub language. Try to download video from same release group, so you will have better chance that audio/sub sync properly.

    This apart, +1 for private tracker as already mentioned, you may need some searching to find one but worth it.



  • (not OP) Have seen an article in a french magazine called “60 millions de consommateurs” it is a well known magazine from “national institute of consumers” and they provide neutral information for consumers and very often tackle corporate. They also help people with specific problems by using there legal departments and others technical departments.

    extract from article: (auto translated so could have some errors, feel free to ask if necessary)

    "How we did it

    • Ten letters from readers sent in 2025 to the editorial staff of “60” were selected. Messages asking questions, sometimes thorny, on the main consumer topics: banking, housing, health, guarantees, and even transportation.

    • These questions were submitted in August to three free artificial intelligences: ChatGPT-5 (OpenAI), Gemini 2.5 Flash (Google), and Le Chat (Mistral AI).

    • Each response was dissected by the legal or technical department of the National Consumer Institute. Is the advice given accurate, incomplete, or far-fetched? The most convincing AI was distinguished, unless all failed to answer correctly."

    One example of the letters: (same as above, auto translated, added some context for ease of understanding)

    " A questionable rent increase

    << We have been renting since August 2013 and we have just received a registered letter announcing a rent increase. However, we have no information about the revaluation index in this letter, nor in the lease. Furthermore, I have just discovered that a landlord does not have the right to increase the rent without having provided an energy performance diagnosis (DPE). What can I do?>>>

    AI responses: our analysis

    ChatGPT and Le Chat point out that the Climate and Resilience Act of August 22, 2021, prohibits rent increases for F or G housing [these letters indicate energy performance diagnosis], which is an energy sieve. Le Chat rightly advises asking the landlord for the DPE and contesting the increase if it displays F or G. If the dispute persists, he recommends consulting a lawyer or a tenant defense association. He could also have cited the justice conciliator!

    Chat gpt and Gemini are more vague or even incomprehensible. Gemini states that the “landlord has the right to increase the rent even without an DPE, unless the energy class of the housing is F or G.” An energy class given without an DPE, really?

    Winner= Le chat"

    "Verdict

    With three correct answers each, ChatGPT and Le Chat have a narrow lead over Gemini. This doesn’t stop them from making mistakes, or even inventing convenient legal passages to support their arguments. Surprisingly, the upgrade from version 40 mini to version 5 in early August caused ChatGPT to lose its advantage in two cases! Disappointing for an AI supposed to behave like “a PhD-level expert,” according to Sam Altman, head of OpenAI, its publisher. As it stands, it’s difficult to recommend one AI over another. To increase the quality of the answer obtained, cross-reference it with those provided by other AIs. The safest course of action is to make an appointment with a real lawyer. To obtain a free consultation with a professional, contact a consumer association or one of the approximately 3,000 legal access points spread throughout the country"

    I obviously don’t realise how much work that is but thanks to you, I started one by asking AI as you recommended (didn’t even think about it, that’s shows how much I’m new to this :D). It isn’t personalised yet to my HA but I think I’m on the right track.

    Since I almost never used ai, I didn’t know that people gate keep their ai knowledge so thanks for letting me know. I honestly thought it wasn’t a big deal. Also, I didn’t ask for someone to create it but asked for guidance like tips to not miss important details.

    was assuming it was something very general and not specific to my HA like " you will act as a home assistant specialist giving me step by step guide to create automation, dashboard elements…" But by the feel I get from your answer, I guess I’m wrong…






  • C’est ce que je compte faire en effet, avec à minima ublock origin, consent o matic, sponsor block pour ceux qui utilisent youtube et un autre dont j’ai zappé le nom qui enlève les trackers quand on copie un lien. Le seul hic, c’est que je ne veux rien imposer, certains seront sur chrome/edge, j’essaierai de leur proposer Firefox (peut être pas le meilleur navigateur actuellement mais tjs mieux que Chrome), cependant si pour X raisons, ils ne souhaitent pas changer, je ne vais pas leur forcer la main donc ça va limiter un peu ce que je peux mettre en addon pour les bloqueurs de pub (me rappelle avoir vu que Chrome avait bloqué ublock origin il y a peu et faudra que je prenne du temps pour voir si d’autres bloqueurs de “qualité” sont disponibles)
