I agree but having a more reliable printer you don’t have to fix is even better. It allowed me to start teaching myself CAD and now I spend time designing stuff around the house rather than fixing or upgrading the printer. I use Alibre Design, allows you to buy outright and no subscription if you don’t mind being on an older version.

Sounds intriguing, might be able to use this with Tailscale on a home box to access it on the go.

If you didn’t need 2.5 Gbps on the network, ace magician has a ryzen 5 mini that has a 2.5 Gbps and a 1 Gbps NIC for around 300 USD. Otherwise I guess you are looking for a new pc to put in fast cards.

If you had a pc already with two NICs, you could do sophos xg home on it or a pfsense/opnsense. I’m planning on virtualizing a VM on a cheap mini ryzen box that meets that (ace magician makes one for $300).

Another vote for Hetzner Cloud, if you don’t mind it being in Germany, you can get even more memory and other specs on their ARM based ones. It does has pretty cheap backups and has DDoS protection and some basic firewall stuff built in all their VPSes.

I have Fedora on a refurb Surface 3 (not pro). It is okay, but I run into issues with chromium browsers freezing it. Still tweaking power settings, i heard it’s related to that. Might try Nobara since I hadn’t heard of it, probably has better defaults.

Not completely, there are still some niche, non-technical communities that are probably never going to switch. I hope at some point they do, but still go once in a while to check. I don’t go daily like I used to, mostly do lemmy daily since the apps are getting so good now.

Probably belongs more in selfhosted, but I started to do my own instance of miniflux. Works decent and is clean interface. Didn’t want to have chance of another company ending a product again.

 

I guess it makes sense for this sort of thing to happen now. Goodreads doesn’t have a way to prove someone bought a book and with folks there that get review copies, probably won’t get the features. If authors didn’t have a hard enough time publishing, yet another thing to worry about.

I just stumbled upon it a few days ago via a lemmy instance. It’s still rough around the edges, but worth looking at.

NixOS on two boxes (starting to deep dive big into flakes to try to automate how the separate devices are configured and apps installed, it’s pretty slick if you ever need to reload the PCs). I have endeavorOS for an AI test box since it was easier to get an arch based distro to work with the complicated install chain of Cuda and Python dependency hell. I have Fedora on an PC my wife uses with Budgie. I have a Debian box for my 3d printer controlling. I may move something back to Solus once they release their new ISO, I miss it. I’d probably end up installing nixpkgs on it so I don’t loose too much functionality/package availability.

I love my X1C, it’s reliable and fast. I can’t comment on P1P, but seems aside from some QC bed issues that I see here and there, probably be worth a shot. Saw it’s down to $600USD today, so on sale. Probably due to 1 year anniversary of the kickstarter. If I didn’t have a prusa, I’d consider getting the P1P as my backup printer.

I have the sovol one, eSun one that does high temps, and the original sunlu one. Sovol had a weird issue where I have to turn it back on a few times until it stays working. The eSun one will likely be my main one since I started to use more exotic filaments that need higher heat.
