Story: TIFU by buying my husband a webcam and ruining his self-esteem

So my husband is a big gamer and he's talked about trying out streaming for years (but never actually done anything about that). This year I decided to surprise him and got him a 4k webcam so he'd have something to play around with. Just as a fun gift. You know, plug it in, hop on with the boys, do a first time face reveal, that kind of thing.

Poor husband plugs it in, sees himself in 4k for the first time ever, and immediately has a mid-life crisis. He literally grabs the monitor and starts yelling, "OH MY GOD. YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING. YOU CAN EVEN SEE MY 5 O'CLOCK SHADOW. I'M GONNA HAVE TO SHAVE THE MOMENT BEFORE EVERY STREAM. IF IT GROWS OUT EVEN A MICROMETER YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THAT. IT'S SHOWING ME PIMPLES I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD. I DON'T EVEN SEE THAT WHEN I WASH MY FACE IN THE MIRROR IN THE MORNING. THIS THING IS MORE 4K THAN MY EYES."

Then out of nowhere he goes, "Oh but it captures my jawline pretty well. Look at that, that's pretty crisp. Oooh yeah look at that. I am the CRIMSON CHIN."

It's been over an hour now and he hasn't even opened a game. He's asked me four times whether his skin actually looks like that irl. He keeps going back and forth between mourning his skin and then stroking his jawline five minutes later. Right now he's just stuck in the stream settings, aggressively messing with filters and lighting to blur his pores. He's tweaked the color so much he looks completely orange.

Edit: He's now on his phone asking ChatGPT to make him a skincare routine. Send help.
Edit2: I got him the Yolocam S3 in case anyone was wondering

Tester Request - 3D printed webcam cover for Obsbot Meet 2

TLDR; Looking for someone with an Obsbot Meet 2 and a 3D printer to test my 3D modeled webcam cover

Link to model: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2886916-obsbot-meet-2-webcam-cover#profileId-3224918

Hi all,

I'm a 3D printing & CAD hobbyist. Awhile ago I made a hinged webcam cover for my Yolocam S3 and I sell it on my Etsy shop. Someone asked me if I could make a similar version for the Obsbot Meet 2 and I said sure. Unfortunately, that person ghosted me, but I figured other people might still be interested in the design.

I've tweaked the dimensions to work for the Meet 2 and made a test print to make sure the hinge works, but since I don't have a Meet 2 myself, I can't test the fit. Is there anyone here with a 3D printer who's willing to print, test, and send me a pic that I can use for my shop? It doesn't have to be a great pic, just something taken on your phone and editing can do the rest.

In exchange, I'm happy to keep the model up for free for you and anyone else who has access to a 3D printer (lots of public libraries do these days). I only sell the physical prints cheaply (I'm thinking something around $7 or so) for people who want something premade.

4k Camera for Makeup & Skincare Closeups - Yolocam S3?

(Sorry for the reupload, I wanted to take the main photos down because I realized that Reddit's photo upload isn't full quality and didn't want people to comment based on those photos.)

Hi everyone,

I bought myself a Yolocam S3 a few weeks ago because I was looking for something I could use both as a webcam but could also open up opportunities to play around with content creation as a hobby.

I’m very much a beginner to streaming and video, but when I searched this sub for "makeup" or "skincare," most of the discussions seemed to focus on general streaming setups or wide-angle vlogging rather than detailed face closeups. Since I couldn't find much info for this specific niche, I wanted to share my first impressions so far and hopefully get some feedback from creators who know more about camera settings and this category of content than me!

Out of the box, the camera struggled with closeups and autofocus, but after I turned that off I thought the quality was fantastic!

1st pic: Me holding the camera up to my face. You can see all my pores...
2nd pic: Camera mounted on top of my monitor, but image cropped to show just my face

Just wondering if there are any other beauty/makeup/skincare streamers in this sub? What kind of setups do you use? From what I understand, most beauty content creators use a full on DSLR camera, but I can't afford that especially since I'm just playing around and not certain that this is niche I want to commit to yet. Do you think this level of quality is close enough to work?

AMS2 + X2D drying TPU while printing PLA?

I made a mistake and left my TPU out by an open window and now it's stringing like crazy. I have an AMS2 I can use to dry it, but I also want to use my X2D printer that it's hooked up to.

I read that with the AMS2 you can dry while printing, but the results aren't as good as if you just dry and then print. Also since TPU requires higher drying temperatures, it's difficult to dry TPU while printing. Is this true?

Has anyone successfully done this? Is there a way to just use the AMS2 as a dryer box for a few hours while printing directly to the main nozzle using an external spool? Is it easy to set up or would I have to unplug and replug a bunch of stuff?

I've been learning CAD recently and decided to take a stab at designing a webcam cover for my YoloCam S3. Surprisingly there's almost nothing available for it on the market.

It's a simple clip-on design with a hinge so you can flip it open when you're live and snap it shut when you're done. Went through a few iterations to get the fit right but it's been solid for me so far.

Figured I'd share the STLs for free in case anyone else has an S3 and wants one: YoloCam - circular webcam cover with hinge - Free 3D Print Model - MakerWorld

Would love any feedback — this is my first real CAD project so I'm still learning!
