Passing on this "shocking" 0.00 ETV in my RFY

Woke up to this in my RFY this morning. Wife said hard no. Hopefully it will find a good home that won’t be too crappy. May it always please its new owner. Good luck happy campers.

Matrix app current printer does not support printing from the model library for Centauri 2

I received a Centauri 2 (not carbon, not canvas) to test and evaluate. I generally use a pc with brand specific slicer. However, I also like to test the app feature. I also will put it on an iPad for my children to get an idea if the printer is kid friendly.
So far, every model in the app gives an error that current printer does not support printing from the model library. As this is my first Elegoo printer, I have no other experience with the app. Is this a common issue, or just specific to the Centauri 2? Is there a setting I need to change, or does it require an app update?

So far, the print quality and speed have been good. However, between some oddities in the slicer and non functioning app, I don't feel the Centauri 2 is very beginner friendly as it's being marketed.

Best prints for a Centauri 2?

I was given a new Centauri 2 single filament. I have other brand of printers and usually watch videos and view various social media to get an idea of "must have addons" I have found that everything I find is more geared towards the Centauri Carbon 2 Combo. My main use will be PLA/PETG with possible some TPU prints (once I figure out how to feed the TPU as everything I have found points to using the flexible filament adapter with the Canvas addon)

Just curious on how people are utilizing the printer and suggestions on what I should add.

Did I just hit on a 3d printer in AFA?

I was going to do some reviews and this popped up in AFA. Completely threw me off. Never clicked so fast. Kept waiting for the red death.
I've been buying 3d stuff for years and hitting all pertinent vine items. Never saw one in RFY, then this happens.

Lady at FedEx asked "what's wrong with the mini starlink?"

I returned my mini today and the pickup lady said they had over 20 returned in the past week.
I told her I loved my starlink home, but after selling the camper I didn't need the mini. I had been meaning to return it, and the price increase convinced me to do it sooner than later. I live in a fairly rural area and was surprised so many people had already returned theirs as well.
Has anyone seen numbers on how many kits have been returned after the price increase?

I was lucky to score a robotic pool cleaner, only for the wrong make/model to arrive. Instead of an ultrasonic floor/wall/skimmer model with app control, I received a basic dumb floor cleaning model. It's still a pool cleaner and I'm sure it will work, but I was really looking forward to the bells and whistles. As an old fat man, it's getting harder to push that pool brush and vacuum.

Ive contacted vine cs and had the order removed. Maybe after another four years of waiting I'll get a chance to grab one again.

Thank you for listening to my sad story as I go back to browsing vine in my maternity dress and hair extensions as I eat my okra chips while my carburetor collection continues to grow.
