Coming from the 9000 series, I am wondering what do you like about the 5700 series HAL?

Ha nice follow through!

Huh, I used to do the opposite on Google search results, to avoid Google being rewarded. But I also like your thinking, depending on whose advertising, I might choose to hit their pocket instead lol

Same here, I patched boost, still didn't work, so I gave up. Then this morning I got notifications from it and it was working.

So that's funny, but you know what I seriously find to be very strange? How different the onomatopoeias for a dog's bark (well, any common animals sound) are in different languages. Here are the ones I know from experience, done kinda phonetically in English: American English: woof woof Brazilian Portuguese: ow ow (au au) Farsi: hop hop

Ah thanks for letting me know about Rx Resume! Great resource, and actually solves the last mile problem (creating the document) of my little personal app. I am a bit of a jack of all trades, so I made a little database for the resume where the lowest level item (the little bullet points in the experience) can have tags attached to them. So I might describe the same job/experience in multiple ways depending on who the audience is, and then filter for the tags to only get the bullet points that are relevant for that position and generate a resume.

Now instead of going into some whole slog of coding document generation, I can just export that bit as JSON and import into Rx Resume! Thanks again!

Oh wow, that's crazy, cutting a notch! Yeah, I only considered the nozzle, not all the other parts....

Can you expand on the glow in the dark filament? Are you talking about abrasion/safety of your extruder, or safety of handling etc. I am not concerned about my extruder seeing that I am using a tungsten carbide nozzle, but I have made GITD stuff for kids (older ones, not young enough to be putting stuff in their mouth lol)

Ah thanks! I am working with .NET, and I was surprised how there's little out there in terms of (open source) libraries for LaTex (I did some research since this comment). I might end up going with docx via the OpenXML API. Also, I haven't really used LaTex before (has been on on my learning to-do list), and once I started messing with some templates, I realized I need to learn a lot more first.

One thing with my documents is that find and replace alone won't work, as I need to replace some patterns. I am generating resumes, so I need to take something like a pattern for a job, and then repeat it several times

What is it?

Oh wait, I misread (or assumed) that's what they were talking about! Dang.... BTW, in my case it works if you drag the file in, and then hold it there for like 5+ seconds until the UI reacts so you can drop

Oh, it wasn't just me!

Well, I am off to eat my dinner of duck cooked rare with a glass of raw milk!

Oh that's neat! Thanks for the tip!

I'm on a distro another commenter suggested, EndeavourOS, and the only time I encountered an issue was a laptop with a less than common fingerprint reader. But it just took 15 minutes of searching to figure out how to see what the exact hardware was, and once I did, I saw someone had a driver for it in the AUR, which is a blessing in general. Everything else has just worked, including my 15 year old printer haha

Hmmm I am on EndeavourOS and was just gonna wait a little longer, but now I am tempted to just push into the 555 beta. I mean, that's what btrfs snapshots are for amirite?

Ah, that's the only thing I was thinking of, but it surely didn't sound like you trying to develop a product on top of it haha

Can you tell me more about your bird recognition setup? I currently have a feeder with a PiCam on it that records based on movement (just using RPi_Cam_Web_Interface) but would love to do something like that!

Just curious, what's their reasoning?

I am working on something similar and also planning on LaTex because it will be so easy to do find and replace because it's plain text (just adding placeholders like ##NAME## or whatever), but I'm only planning on outputting PDFs, which would be easy enough. I don't think there's many viable solutions to go LaTex to docx if that's a big requirement for you
