My VPN doesn’t share my data with their 9000 advertising partners like my ISP does.

It’s a ryzen 3400g with 16gb ddr4 ram and a fairly new nvme ssd. Although I do have a really old 1.5tb drive acting as the backup drive. I’ve been looking at cloud backup solutions in case that dies.

It was stock Ubuntu. Everything was working fine for a long time. The only thing I can think of is that I was trying to get rdp going last week so I could access my main PC from a thin client in my garage. Maybe I got “hacked”? Otherwise it could be some issue with the PC, a used hp business pc, nothing special. When I first tried to load the fedora image it did the same thing, other recovery images from medicat worked. Then later trying the fedora image worked. I also reseated ram and ssd, unplugging everything and trying different monitors, etc. before trying anything else.

Everything seems fine now, I just need to install all of my applications again.

I created. !flipping@lemmy.world to discuss selling on various platforms. I just flipped a PC I built yesterday for a $60 profit.

Ubuntu has built in hotkey functions that let you run terminal commands. You just write a bash script and run it with the hotkey.

I bought a “for dewalt” handheld vacuum that also acts as a blower/mattress filler. With the small tip on it it’s almost as good as the air compressor for cleaning dust out of the pc. It was only $30 iirc

Do you count that as modifying if you add a raspberry pi or a camera, but you can still just remove them and have the printer just like it came ootb?

These are definitely things that come with better printers these days. I only use octoprint with my cheap printer. It gives better results because a rpi is miles better at keeping up than the cheap board they put in there, it also didn’t come with Wi-Fi or a camera which are things that come out of the box on other printers. Of course in the past printers didn’t come with those things. I would consider them accessories because they added the USB port to the printer for you to send commands to, which is what you’re doing.However, If the printer were “better” then you wouldn’t have to use those things since it would already have Wi-Fi, better board, and a camera built in.

That’s still “how it came out of the box” though as long as you use the same nozzle or one reccomended by the company. Just like replacing your brake pads with factory brake pads and not upgrading them to something better.

Anything other than how the printer came out of the box.

Had I not worked in the plastics industry for many years and been a hobbyist tinkerer I would have never bought a printer. Unfortunately I never got around to actually learning cad because there is usually an stl already available for what i want to do. I started messing with freecad so maybe I’ll learn how to make parts and then I can probably justify a just works printer or just have parts printed by someone else.

Orca slicer just works on Ubuntu, but I had to use the appimage and not the normal install. I’m using octoprint on an old thin client which runs Debian and has been rock solid for many years.

Auto bed leveling and direct drive are pretty much the only things I want, and it’s got them and was cheap.

That was my thought process with the Kobra Neo.

The bed was so out of whack that I added adjustment wheels (it had solid spacers) and I upgraded the firmware to a modified one that added a couple of qol features. Now I’m realizing that the part cooling fan is just not big enough to keep up especially with the duct they put on there. If it weren’t for all the stringing then my prints would look good. Then of course there are other common issues people had with these with the bed wires breaking.

That’s how I installed, however I think I messed up the install folder screwing around. I have two instances, one with no users and email has also stopped working on that one. I’ll try to just go back through the basic ansible instructions from scratch and see if that works, I can always roll it back.

I guess I’m still a bit confused. My sites current version is v.0.19.9 The current lemmy release version is v0.19.11. I’m getting this:

 * [new branch]      ansible-galaxy-install -> origin/ansible-galaxy-install
   e4f2728..3f0e6c7  main                   -> origin/main

i have dissasembled batteries to recharge the 81650 cells inside then reassemble. If they drop below a certain threshhold then the protection circuit won’t charge them. I have a special charger/tester for lithium cells and a battery tab welder. It’s only worth it if the replacement is unavailable and it’s for something very rare.

Connect for lemmy it’s on android.

Also on the connect app. It has had so many great updates lately.

There’s a bunch of places if you search. Facebook doesn’t give a crap about it.

You can buy accounts.

What’s with all the downvotes? I swear there has to be vote manipulation going on with some of these threads.
