  • Yeah you're totally right, I forgot about that.

    There was flashfxp too but I think that was a fair bit later. Revolutionized being a warez courier.

  • FileZilla isn't even that old school, cuteftp was the OG one afaik.

  • Positron V3.2 as First Printer?

    Jump

  • I just realized..... it looks like an upside down printer? The extruder is on the bottom on x/y sliders and the bed moves up. That feels like a bad idea to me, it'll make bed adhesion so much more important.

    I'm skeptical of claims + quality

  • Positron V3.2 as First Printer?

  • So much of 3d printing comes down to getting everything perfectly aligned and dialed in. On a foldable printer like this, I would expect you to spend a ton of time calibrating after every time you move it.

    I think you're on the right track with not wanting to deal with the problems likely to come with a first gen printer. Unfortunately I can't recommend another product that fits your particular use case, maybe a https://bambulab.com/en-us/a1-mini but it's not as portable as that positron.

  • What was your worst work mishap, accident, or oopsie?

    Jump
    1. Alt tabbed once too many times, clicked drop database and yes. Deleted the live authentication DB for America's Army: Operation video game.
    2. Missed the word "add" in "switchport vlan add" on a switch, overwriting the list instead of appending to it. Took out the only connection between two datacenters we were in the process of migrating between. Took me 14 minutes to run to the datacenter, plug in a console cable and fix it.

  • Lspci doesn't care about drivers. What's lshw say?

    Sounds like maybe a fake card or something. Do you also have a 3060 in there?

    Friend had a network misconfig on their side take his server out on Friday night and they didn't fix it until Monday.

  • Same for Samsung afaik. Pop into the bootloader and just wipe everything.

  • SMB, FTP, or NFS for NAS + server?

    Jump

  • SMB.

    The windows nfs implementation sucks, but everything talks SMB.

  • Can anyone help me identify the cause of this extruder squeak?

    Jump

  • Is it actually extruding? Sounds like it might be slipping / grinding. Is your hot end plugged? Can you push filament through manually?

    Edit: never mind, watched it again and can see the filament moving. I'm with the other guy on this, is it even your extruder?

  • lemmy, I just got laid off from my Data Center Job; anyone have any advice?

  • Not sure, I've been out of that space for a long time.

    The industry is pretty bad right now everywhere, it'll pick back up.... eventually.

  • Find a decent MSP and grind there for a few years. It'll suck but you'll touch a ton of different environments in a short time, and get exposed to all sorts of broken things.
