ASMedia is the only controller IC manufacturer that can be trusted for these IME. They also have the best Linux support compared to the other options and support pass-through commands. These are commonly found in USB DAS enclosures, and a very small fraction of single disk SATA enclosures

Innostor controllers max out at SATA 2 and lock up when you issue pass-through commands (e.g. to read SMART data). These also return an incorrect serial number. These are commonly found in ultra cheap desktop hard drive docks, and 40pin IDE/44pin IDE/SATA to USB converters

JMicron controllers (not affiliated with the reputable Micron) should be avoided unless you know what you are doing… UASP is flaky, and there are hacky kernel boot time parameters required to get these working on Raspberry Pi boards. Unfortunately these are the most popular ones on the market due to very low cost

Probably not.

However, not all USB to SATA adapters support SMART, so even if there is a bad sector that gets remapped by the HDD on-the-fly (and thus does not show up in the software scan), you may not find out easily

Really nice to see improcements being made to local voice control.

I personally haven’t opted for it yet due to the computing reqirements - instead been looking into dedicated offline voice recognition modules, since they use much less power. Downside is that they recognise a mostly predefined set of commands, and are just looking for patterns in speech instead of actually performing voice recognition

Would be interesting to compare the two voice control approaches side by side at some point

Got to really wonder what’s going on at Mozilla. Between the previous CEO milking it for cash, the purchase of an ad company, and now this?

That thread could do with one of these: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_retardant

Hehehe

After one Google search on my work laptop I was looking for searx instances - a lot of those were going down too due to rate limiting 😭

I’m looking into printing with ASA eventually - have you tried skirts on an ASA print? (Not sure what other slicers call it - it’s a wall that is printed around the print to shield drafts)

I don’t have an enclosure on my delta so was considering that as an alternative.

I used to use MQTT, static_status and Healthchecks.io, and have that data passed through to Home Assistant, but it started to get pretty cumbersome as the amount of machines I had grew.

I now use just Zabbix and HealthchecksIO. I did need to spend some time writing new templates for some additional data I wanted to collect (like SMART data for SSDs that provide health metrics in non-standard attributes, and HealthchecksIO so I could see the status of various checks on my zabbix dashboard)

Zabbix also has some additional features I found appealing, like proxies that can continue recording data when the main server is down, and built in encryption. Some checks like open ports/icmp responses etc can be checked using either the local agent, the remote server, or both, which helps quickly diagnose things like firewall config issues.

I did look at some other solutions, but I wanted something integrated to hit the ground running. Mobile apps are very limited, and there is no official one to my knowledge. I use Moobix which I don’t believe is FOSS - but I could be wrong there

Try each solution out and see what works best for you!

Welcome!

Since you’re on the lemmy.world instance, there’s a bunch of additional interfaces available to you:

• https://old.lemmy.world/ (Something familiar)
• https://a.lemmy.world/
• https://photon.lemmy.world/

If you’re on mobile, there’s a ton of apps to choose from at https://join-lemmy.org/apps , or if PWAs are more your thing, your instance has the Voyager/Mlmym interface setup at https://m.lemmy.world/

Finding communities used to be difficult, but it should be straightforward now just from the search, seeing as it is the largest instance.

Hope you enjoy your stay 😁

I personally think some types of openly developed software projects should have a strict non-commercial license: if companies aren’t willing to contribute back to the source IMO they shouldn’t be granted permission to freeload & have volunteers fix issues their paying customers run into

Donations are possibly a bit of an exception here - there are quite a few companies that still do this, albeit growing slimmer by the day.

Another big problem IMO is the subset of users that start attacking maintainers and volunteers because their “free app stopped working” etc. I see that a lot, mostly in the arduino community, but especially egregiously on the Zabbix project - I imagine a lot of those users are companies who aren’t even paying/donating to the project

On models without a charge port, some of the batteries aren’t even flat when the pods are burnt out 🤷‍♂️

Worst i’ve read is around 3.8v under load, which is roughly 60% full… that would be a very destructive result compressed in the back of a garbage truck.

Been harvesting these so far but don’t have enough projects to use them in.

I had a similar stringing issue with PETG on my flsun Q5, where PLA was printing flawless without any strings whatsoever. Since your SR isn’t a bowden, that mostly rules out retraction distance IMO.

For me I narrowed it down to Z-hop: as the printer was lifting the nozzle slightly to move to another part of the print, molten filament oozed out - sticking to the print, and getting stringed across by the nozzle. I only noticed after recording the print (use at least 60fps to avoid the frame blurring you’ll get at 30> and watching what exactly was happening prior to the stringing. It took about 4 hours to get to that point 😭

If orcaslicer is based on Prusaslicer, wipe on retract with the initial distance set to 100% may not trigger a wipe. Try 70% or 80% instead. There’s another setting somewhere to force retraction when changing layers: enabling this will forcibly honor your wipe retraction preference when changing print layer.

I think you may still get stringing at the really spiky parts of the test print, given there’s no space for a wipe, and that volcano is going to hold way more molten filament than a V6 or similar

Hopefully someone with more experience can add their 2¢, it was pretty difficult to research info online when I had PETG stringing - everything just says “tune your retraction” 😤

Edit: I mixed up the SR with the v400! In that case, Another thing to check is your bowden tube pneumatic couplers - unload the filament and tug lightly on each to see if they’re fitting securely. If they’re loose, your extruder can end up moving the bowden tube itself back and forwards, which affects your retraction

Yes, this please. Although I don’t have a cargo bike, I load up all 3 sides of my pannier and fill a backpack with my cargo 😅

Feed that beast into a CPAP cooling duct setup, the part will pretty much go flying across the room when bridging lol

Standard sh*tty behavior from AdmiralAnti-Adblock. I usually either disable JavaScript, or enter Reader mode

I wish that company would cease to exist tbh

Unironically this…

Passkeys don’t work on my rooted device - they seemingly set up correctly, but sites like GH claim your device passkey doesn’t exist when you try to actually login. When you go to the affected site’s account settings to add the device as a passkey again, an error of some kind claims the passkey already exists 🤷‍♂️

Deleting/re-adding has no effect. Using FF with device biometric passkey auth

Some third party apps allow you to import your Steam OTP, such as Gnome Authenticator

However to obtain it in the first place you need to either use SteamDesktopAuthenticator (GitHub), an android emulator on your PC, or a rooted device to export your key…

Damn this sounds really impressive, especially the possibilities this could offer in medicine.

Must have been really expensive to develop!

This is my favorite feature on the MX Master mouse, hands down

The policies at my work are really backwards IMO.

I have full administrative access to our prod hypervisor (including inside the VMs running on it)… but not my own dev machine 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
