Voodoo One, Viper’s on station. Your journey ends here, Pilot - the skies belong to me. Nowhere to run… Nowhere to hide.

Astronomy just seems to be full of terrible backronyms. To the point that there’s a list of them: Dumb Or Overly Forced Astronomical Acronyms Site (or DOOFAAS)

If you’re getting nozzle clogs, then it’s probably not necessarily moisture but dust being an issue. Dusty and dirty filament pulls dust into the hotend, and the dust doesn’t melt so the buildup clogs the nozzle. I’ve made rudimentary wipes by stabbing the filament through some foam (the grey stuff you find in pelican cases) so that it’ll clean the filament of any surface dust as it travels through.

For drying the filament, I set the heated bed to just below the glass transition temp of the filament, put the spool on and leave it there. There are some guides for other methods, but I haven’t tried anything else so I can’t comment on them.

Are the filaments still in their original packaging and if not, how were they stored? The main thing with old filaments is how much water they’ve absorbed from the environment, with older filaments stored in high humidity environments causing issues for print quality.

If your filaments have been stored sealed in original packaging, they’ll probably print like new. If they’ve been stored in an airtight container they’ll probably also be pretty good. You can also just give them a shot and see if you’re happy with the quality they provide.

If they’ve been stored open on a shelf, it isn’t necessarily over for them though. Look up guides on how to dry out filament. There’s a few products you can buy that do it too, but if you have a printer with an enclosure and heated bed you can use that as an oven to bake out your filament.

I’ve got a few filaments that have been sitting for over 6 years and after baking out they print absolutely fine.

It could be tidally locked to the sun too. Then days would truly cease to exist, you’d just have a hot side and a cold side.

To be clear, that’s Cataclysm:Dark Days Ahead or CDDA. It’s quite removed from the original cataclysm by whalesdev, and is more focused on strict realism. There is also Cataclysm Bright Nights which is closer to the arcadey feel of the original. Both are great and are open source.

Clickspring is currently recreating the antikythera mechanism using period accurate tools and technology, which is low tech if you consider that it was high tech for the ancient greeks.

Yes, it really is that bad. We have a resin printer at work and it has been banished to a different room due to the resin fumes. The table it sits on is perpetually sticky, and we go through twice as much IPA postprocessing the prints than we use in resin

Sunshine and moonlight are open source implementations of nvidia’s game streaming protocol they created for the nvidia shield. You can use it to remotely use your computer from your phone, not just for games. But of course the primary application is game streaming. As long as the game can run on the host (sunshine) computer, you can remotely play it on the client (moonlight) device. I’ve used it to just launch steam in big picture mode and then select what I want from steam.

You have to add them manually, either by url or with the built in search. For example, you can add newpipe by searching sources and checking github as a source to search. It will then show you repos that match newpipe, which usually is the regular newpipe repo and then a bunch of forks of it.

Obtainium isn’t for finding FOSS apps, it’s for installing them. To find them, you can check out existing repos such as f-droid or izzy, or you can ask around. This post has a bunch of recommendations in the replies

Obtainium lets you install FOSS programs directly from the developers source. You can get updates from the github/gitlab of app developers before they get uploaded to F-droid.
