  • Not worth to repair since they are cheap imo, but dont buy a motor before you confirm its not something else. You have 3 components, motor, wire and stepper motor. Plug it in x driver and move your x. If the problem is still there its motor or cable. Then switch cables if they are detachable, or visually inspect cable/connector. So if you are looking for feplacement, just find a label on your motor and search that on internet. If you dont chose the same model you might need to change your stepps/mm in fw or adjust current (vref). Its most likely nema17 bipolar 1.8 deg, but you have to check length to be sure it fits where your extruder should be. Simmilar size = simmilar power, but you shoudl fine tune your vref anyway. Too much current = motor overheating or stepper motor overheating and it can also skip, too low current = motor skipping. If it died you might be running it too hot, but you would probably burn driver first.

  • Thx. Thats what I have, but didnt update for a while 🤣

  • So no luck with roborock s7 maxV? That device looks promissing, but I never owned a robot. Can that one be fully controlled with home assistant? Is there any alternative vacuum/mopper with station for both? Looking for something like that even if its not fully offline.

  • As someone already said, Duplicati. You can install it using docker and it has super easy web gui

  • Thanks, your "edit" made me laugh hehe. Im using both, personal firefox and work chrome.

  • Thx all. Im using ublock and im not clicking random download links, but Ill check virustotal and clamav Cheers

  • Yeah its sad. But dont lose hope, Im sure Im gonna run proper CAD on linux before I die haha

  • Ive seen many questions like this and Im always intersted in new ideas. So far didnt find anything that would suit me. I know some people melt it into big blocks or plates (dont use your kitchen oven 🤣) for future projects. Making filament from that is probably not worth. I successfully recicled maybe 1% by filling hollow prints with that trash to gain some weight 😉

  • Took me 3 attempts to respond lol. Button REPLAY just circles infinitely

  • Looks awesome. looks like you have some beefy USB cables 😀

  • I was on the same boat 15 years ago. Still waiting solidowrks replacement on linux haha. All open source or free CAD is okayish, but they cant replace proper software like solidworks. Inventor, catia, proe, they are all decent, but solidworks became kinda industry standar, so better stick with it since you already have some experience (its easy to switch between them). Compatibility will stop you from using any other if you need to share files (not step or stl) with someone. Even different versions of SW (every few years) are not backward compatible. Solidworks is almost the only reason why I still have windows

  • Maybe Im just lucky, bought tens of SSDs and never had problems like that. Well many of them failed including samsung evo, so I guess its just important to have backup, warranty and luck

  • Its easier to learn snowboarding for people who know how to ski. It doesnt mean every snowboarder should start skiing first, but its not wrong if you enjoy it.

    Its more about what you want to print and where. If you want to print tiny, high detail miniatures your FDM will suck. If you want to print in your living room better get FDM and print PLA, cuz for resin you need proper ventilation.

    Have fun!

  • Everything:

    Kopia encrypted -> another phisical drive

    Kopia encrypted -> backblaze B2

    • Chron job every day at 4:15 AM

    Most important folder (part of everything):

    Duplicaty encrypted -> google drive

    • Also daily backup
  • 3D modeling and 3D printing are 2 different hobies and both have one thing in common, THEY LEECH LOADS OF TIME 🤣 Just saying, it doesnt need to be bad, I like it! But if you are beginner maybe start with only one.

    Why first fdm, then resin? If you want resin printer just go that path. Resin is good for miniatures while filaments are better for mechanical properties and bigger size. Fdm is faster, but still extremely slow. For 20x20x20 cm model you need like 1 day or more to complete. Get something that supports klipper firmware, like ender (probably most cheap printers) and expect extra cost on upgrades.

    For 3D modeling software you can chose open source Blender if you want to create sculptures or art thingies. Blender can do much more, but for mechanical parts you need CAD. You can make simple objects in any free software, like fusion or freecad. If you want proper CAD get solidworks. Super expensive for home users unless you can get it for free somehow, but loads of guides everywhere since its kinda industry standard.

    I know you are looking for exact 3D printer models (hopefully others will cover that), but you might find this useful. GL

  • Was that gear slipping and skipping?

  • Just install 2nd pihole on your synology? You can split DHCP across piholes and a router. Like one can handle IPs from 0 to 100 etc. I have 1 pihole on raspberry, another one on server and DHCP is done on the router.

  • Good to see the prices are going down when everything else is getting crazzy expensive.

    I bought some SSD in 2019 worth of 290$ and payed with 0.5 ethereum. That would be 900+$ today kekw

  • I use MSI Z270-A PRO with Intel G3930 and 8GB DDR4 and its running jellyfin and 20+ other services. I think Ill have to upgrade RAM if I continue to add more services, but CPU can deal with 4x 1080p at once. 20-30 W from the wall. QuickSync ftw

  • What about community like memes? Almost nothing is irrelevant, it make sense to upvote what you like
