Let me know when you find something that actually works.

Just happened to use gasoline on a sticky Dell XPS. Didn't help. Baking soda does reduce the sticky feeling, but leaves a weird coating.

Alcohol didn't work for me, perhaps I'll just need to wrap the laptop with some sticker

Almost every one of the fingerprint sensors in laptops are not supported by Linux due to proprietary protocols. Never managed to get stuff used by Dell or HP with Linux.

But the Grow R503 can be used over uart, what can be connected to usb with some minor additional parts.

Yes, it would be unfortunate for a new user to experience all the horror our distinguished friend EvilSocket is telling everyone today..

Keep up the good work!

Not medically trained or experiencing any illnesses, but keep this in mind:

In just a few years, the medical world made huge steps in treating a lot of things using RNA techniques.

Don't compare a situation 10 or 20 years ago with the possibilities today.

Ender. Happened back in the days with a 3v2, the stepper drivers on the original mainboard overheat, causing it to 'miss' steps.

Replaced the MB with an improved version, tuned the vRef and never had any issues again.

You might look into tuning the vRef for your machine.

Inclusive tax, but exclusive service fee, handling fee, network fee, administrative fee, etc. You get the picture.

We are getting screwed by the energy companies and the infrastructure companies. Everyone wants a piece of the pie.

At least (some of us) are getting money back, when your solar production exceeds your consumption. But that is going to change soon.

Dynamic pricing contract. Planning when to charge the car, running dishwasher etc is small effort.

Adding 5KW solar panels and a change of contract, from >€500 to something like €75. Family of 4, pretty heavy usage.
