3D printed Linux Mint emblem to cover up the illuminated Apple logo on my ancient MacBook (lemmy.world)

I made this Linux Mint logo emblem to cover up the Apple logo on my old MacBook that now runs Linux. I am not sure if it will cover the logo of all MacBooks but i am sure that it can be scaled to needs.

I used Prusa Slicer, to slice it, and it automatically offered the option of a color change. I used a translucent red for the lower part and a dark grey for the top. You may want to experiment a bit with the types and infills to get the appropriate effect. I used very fine layer hight as well as ironing to get a smoother surface.

Then simply glued it on top of the illuminated logo

Available for free on Thingiverse and Printables

PS: Many failed attempts went into take this fairly bad picture - i apologize but the dogs were too comfortable

Yeah mine struggles with videos too and it's from 2011. Still good for browsing though

Totally. We use ours for tv, it handles h264 without issue still. Though I do have to set our file server to still support SMBv1.
