Nah. I would rather us all be together. I'm the janitor of 3d printing here. I've tried other accounts and have several, but I only use a mobile browser and like Alexandrite most. LW is well managed for the most part and stable. I've been here since the LW server was 3 weeks old and had less than 2k users.

Beehaw needs to reconnect with LW badly. I miss them. I have an account there but never use it any more.

You lose the I/O and power efficiency is no comparison. You can get better power efficiency and sometimes some I/O with an old router and OpenWRT, but you'll be in the class of a Beagle Bone and a much harder learning curve. I've never managed to get a sensor or peripheral working on some old laptop's SPI or I2C buses like how easy it is on a Rπ.

Yes

I think you were cheating and watching my CAD designs today – felt very finger paint shabby chic

There must be some rules of thumb, or name for styles, reputable designers to follow, or something.

I think you're right in some cases, but also somewhat attributing malice to stupidity. There are primitive people that are far too scared to risk abandoning their mutually exclusive social support network. They exhibit angst at the unknown and unfamiliar and sway in the direction of fight from their fight or flight mechanism. None of this behavior is within the scope of their self awareness. They exist in a fixated cult like state of tribal ignorance and stupidity, and are wholely incapable of curiosity and learning from sources outside the scope of their tribal isolation.

I was this way before my self awareness grew past the point of reflection. My entire family is like this as are my former and abandoned social support network I am now ostracized from as a result.

This is the actual barrier in place that enables cult like isolation and fixation. Meanwhile, these systems are wholly built upon outsourcing ethics to an organization that only wields shame to keep members in line. Shame can never motivate positive action. Shame can only negatively curb behaviors. Without positive feedback, these systems can only produce depression and negative austere conservative people able to cope with the lack of endorphins. It is truly sadistic in nature. Those that are still out of balance are considered undesirable when their cognitive dissonance pushes back in actions the person may not even understand or register.

Religion is largely a cognitive dissonance factory because of these factors. This does not excuse actions that harm others. But it is this antiquated system of subtle harm in the religious tribal structure and its cult like exclusivity of social network isolation that create people with no independent ethics, unable to learn and reason well, and scared of everything outside of their tiny bubble of a life.

Sure, you can send me a nas with drives and another network switch, wiring, and pay for labor to run it, while setting it up to work with my hardware and firewall. I have no interest in these projects to support something maybe useful to you but that I already know. I'd rather just do what I do now and keep it to myself. I'm physically disabled with no meaningful income. Gatekeep your hobby and financial position all you'd like, but **** your random prejudiced negative vitriol towards strangers.

Not necessarily. Like I don't have my YT stuff stored anywhere any more.

Shorter format stuff – sure, and that seems to be the only focus really for peertube now. Most of the YT stuff I posted was like bits and pieces of my journey of creating a product photography studio and progress I was making while still in my collar with a broken neck. I also made electrical hobby and bicycle stuff. I typically uploaded long format with 20-40 minutes detailing what I tried and what did or did not work when fixing stuff that is supposed to be unserviceable or undocumented and like reverse engineering type content. Some of those proved to be a reference I used many years later. My digital storage has never been at a very high quality level. Most of my motivation is like here on Lemmy; I want to share and just be a little social while maybe providing some useful tidbit that helps someone. I'd rather relegate that digital archiving to someone else mostly because my life has never been well supported or super stable.

We probably need to also get more of us actually uploading to peertube and posting stuff here with better integration.

First step is streamlining account creation and uploading. Is there a post goto for how to sign up? What servers are stable versus maybe not so much? Really useful video content is a major undertaking for technically useful stuff. I did several on YT in the past and some in the hundreds of thousands of views about how to fix or hack stuff where I was the only source posted. Editing something well is at least 1 hour per minute, and twice that with a good setup and recording. So like, I'd be far more bummed if that stuff got lost by instances disappearing. That is probably the biggest hesitation I have had. IMO, useful original content is the holy grail for this kind of thing, or maybe that is just my perspective bias.

I'm no help, but more out of curiosity, why not run a container for OpenGL 3.2 or a flatpak/snap or just the older version?

Edit: oh you probably mean the physical hardware is not supported for some reason, and I'm thinking at the OS level

Funny, my last job as the Buyer for a chain of bike shops was much the same straight talk. I told the owner, "Look, I've already worked in a high end shop, and I have owned my own business twice. I spend all money like it is my own regardless of the amount. If I make a purchase, regardless of the amount of money involved, I'm mentally spending my own money and thinking in terms of paying back your loan. I have real independent ethics and self awareness. I hold myself to the standard of employees I wish I had been able to find for my own business. I expect freedom, flexibility, respect, and autonomy, but I offer a conservatively consistent and reliable person that will always defer to you when I am unsure about an investment or a sum of money I cannot backup with my own finances."

I find that people who fail to understand that kind of directness, and honesty without all of the insane courtship rituals that now underpin the hiring process are terrible to work for in the first place. I'd rather die than do the debasing mockery of a HR department or some circlejerk clown show of an interview like whores in a brothel. These things are valueless. Look at any large company and you'll find a range of skills and aptitudes that do not reflect some great filter of value begotten by HR inventing a reason for its own existence as a malignant tumor growth out of the role of an accountant managing payroll in a back office.

When I was asked why in hell I worked for such garbage pay, I told people straight, I can't run a business with fluctuating income and keep up with paying child services payments. I need rock solid consistency to rebuild my life from the ashes they create for the profit of their agents that are paid on commission. They couldn't take a bike from me like how they wrecked my commercial driver's license and business.

I always kinda implied the obvious that I work to survive. Anyone that feels the need to say otherwise would be a prime reason I would walk away. Only a useless clown like a malignant HR tumor would ever question a thing like this. As a business owner twice – of course my employees work for their own survival. And of fucking course I have an ethical and moral responsibility implied by that relationship. If I feel the need to say otherwise, I'm a worthless piece of shit you should never work for and anyone that says such a thing while working for another person is the responsibility of that higher up and absolutely reflective of their moral and ethical depravity. No one should ever put up with such a malignant cancer of a person at any level. They are blatantly telling you "This is a terrible place to work because it produced or failed to filter out me."

Voron carries the original community torch that started all of this with RepRap and Adrian Bowyer. That is not some minor guerilla thing around Voron specifically. It grew out of the era when Prusa started making excuses and doing anti community stuff. Like they are still great, but not for the same reasons that built them. You can't build Prusa firmware and mod it easily like with a Marlin config or Klipper. And the Mini is a custom hacked Marlin config that looks nothing like Marlin at all. That killed community contributions and the iterative nature of open source. The offshoots and side projects of Voron used to exist around Prusa and were around RepRap before that. Joseph got his start with RepRap selling kits on the side. That is where the MKx nomenclature comes from.

Adrian Bowyer broke what was a stratasys commercial monopoly and singlehandedly built the open source community and entire hobby. If Adrian did not exist, there would be no hobby 3d printing at all. The whole thing is due to this open source project and the community it built. That is why Bambu is hated so much. They are a stratasys like parasite here to exploit and oppress as a capitalist cancer. They are the ultimate type of leopard eating face buy.

As them out on a date first

Cheapest Chinese Bluetooth headphones from AliEx around 2019. I think it is an AC6905 chip. The toolchain is rather obscure and piecemeal with write-ups on GitHub and eevblog, but that is beyond my interest. This one was too weak to be useful or one of the audio drivers went out or wire was bad. I have a half dozen of these sports ear buds style headphones that have gone bad over the last decade. Even ones that come from the same brand end up having different boards.

It does what Bluetooth headphones do but with regular headphones. More usefully, it is a Bluetooth line-output to plug into an amplifier which is what I am actually working on. This will go into an amplifier that can connect to my laptop and is integrated into my bedside laptop stand (I'm physically disabled so in bed most of the time). I'm working on making several parts of my laptop stand more modular. I want this to be removable to use elsewhere if I want and charged when not in use. It therefore has a use, a place of storage, and is always available.

Awareness of the audience is a critical factor in multiple hits and successful communication

I treat this place just like real life. The feed is not tailored to me, so I block lots of stuff. Rude people, people that down vote, narcissists, communities with bad vibes, if I interact with moderators after interacting in good faith, or if I post something I know to be factually correct but get some negative cascade in response I simply block the whole community or individual. I've blocked 200+ users and at least as many communities. I only care about real people that have the decency to interact cordially.

They have all been chased off or banned mostly in response to and protection of this refuge for diversity.
