I blocked my printer from having internet access and blocking its random DNS attempts as well 2 months after I bought it. They are amazing printers for beginners and priced very well IMO. I love my printer bit will never update the firmware because of this enshittification.

Ah that sucks then haha. I’m with you on not caring about early releases, when they are officially released then I care. Also even if that’s the case just put in an option to toggle early releases on or off for each show added no?

I’m surprised there isn’t an option in sonarr to only automatically search for episodes that are released. Unless there is and I’m missing it? In the past year I’ve noticed its worse, I keep getting .lnk files but luckily the system is smart enough to not import them. Hopefully a fix comes soon!

I have pocketpal setup on my pixel with graphene os and its pretty awesome. I agree that AI is inherently bad considering the environmental impact and the amount of data that is illegally needed to train AI.

That being said pocketpal is openaoirce and is great. https://github.com/a-ghorbani/pocketpal-ai

I’m self hosting audiobookshelf with tailscale. Also use home assistant with music assistant to play my podcasts on all my home speakers as well.

This is very trump like. You are going to use our tax dollars to pay out judges so they retire but cut funding to health care and education. Makes sense, can’t believe we let this guy win again…

I figured this out. My depth of the text was wrong and I was able tofiguree out how to embed the text into the project so we are good! I’ve tried orcaslicer but it won’t open on my fedora setup for some reason and I’m also running Bambi studio in docker which is nice.

This the main reason I switched from traefik, I can have certificates on all my internal stuff and not just on my docker host. I personally love NPM but maybe I’ll give NPMPlus a try, I have never heard of it.

+1 to this, you don’t have to activate. You get an activation watermark at the bottom right hand corner, not a big deal

Lan mode only, firewall blocking all internet access to it and I’m good to go. Bambu studio connects to it fine and still works with homeassistant as well.

Let me know if you find the 1.03 firmware version as I can’t seem to find it anywhere on their site. The latest for the a1 mini is 1.04 and it was released on December 10th.

If you find 1.03 please post it in here! :)

What’s the latest firmware version that shittifies these printers? I have an a1 mini with version 1.4

Dang thanks for this, I have vlans and use opnsense but I couldn’t figure out how to connect to the printer from bambu studio. Ive installed the udpbroadcastrelay plugin on opnsense but it still doesn’t seem to connect. Do you mind posting a screenshot of your pfsense config?

Thanks for posting this!

Yeah this sucks, I just bought an a1 mini with AMS, I love it. I do have it in LAN Mode with no internet and I still use bambustudio since I believe that is open source no? Lets hope they reverse this but I don’t see them doing that. Hope I can still use the printer without upgrading the firmware or somebody is able to make open source firmware for the a1 mini…

Man I hate tech space right now, every company grinding out as much money as possible anyway they can because “security”…

So I’m just not going to update mg firmware then? I’m already using lan only mkde, and if I have to start using an SD card I guess I can do that.

My A1 mini is 3 weeks old and I love it but this sucks… It always starts with “security” and i can totally see them going subscription model and locking you into their ecosystem. I guess that’s why it was so cheap and on sale haha. Sucks to see such an amazing product and success to go downhill so quickly…

If an employee did this and there was this much backlash that said employee would be promptly fired…

I have a 3 ZigBee sonoff switches: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/ZBMINIL2.html#sonoff-zbminil2

They are nice and don’t require a neutral wire, you can’t use these on 3 way switches but they are very nice and small. You then keep the aesthetic of whatever switch you use, paddle or flip switch.

The one thing I’ve noticed is that if you flip the switch on and off really quick about 3 times it disconnects from the mqtt server and needs to be repaired.

You could also go with a zwave or ZigBee inovelli switch which are nice but very expensive. They are very reliable and I have no complaints with the one zwave switch I have from them.

Dumb question but is there a way to automatically backup my compose files to my local gitea instance?

This, my ssd randomly disappeared on my proxmox server January 1st so I had to start from scratch. Didn’t have any docker compose backups or lxc backups… I suppose this time I can do everything right now lol

Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I think I’m gonna get the a1 mini, they do have a ice deal on and I don’t think I’ll be printing large items and it’ll be nice if I want to print multicolour items in the future with the AMS lite.

Thanks!
