SSDs?

but I wanted to fix an issue with their app (I am an app dev), to discover that it isn’t FOSS like the slicer.

Prusa has other software than their slicer? What does it do?

My first printer back in 2016 was a FlashForge, which at that time filled a similar role in the market as Bambu is doing now.

Their designs were initially more open than Bambu is now, but went more proprietary over time - I had a Dreamer which still used a lot of “standard” parts. Despite that I ran into several issues that were either a pain to work around, or impossible, due to Flashforges attempts at keeping bits proprietary. I switched to Prusa after that, and have been happy ever since.

For me personally that experience was enough that I’ll never by something like Bambu - though for people with less technical abilities who just want a box that works they’re perfectly fine.

Currently I have a mk4 upgraded from a mk3s as main printer, in the enclosure, with mmu. I’m considering upgrading it to a core one next year, purely because of the lower footprint of the core one in a case compared to the prusa enclosure, and my limited space. My old flashforge was corexy, and was quite annoying about bed leveling - which lead to me avoiding corexy for a while after that. But as far as I can tell the bed mount on modern corexy are way better than on the old flashforge (which had a tendency to bend forward), plus there’s autoleveling now.

I currently have a bit over 2400 tabs open, and it has been roughly a month since I restarted firefox for being too laggy. It is becoming an issue again.

I did tank tracks in TPU - I’ve since stopped using it, but not because they broke, but because they keep stretching. Removing one element after 10 minutes of play becomes annoying over time. Though I am somewhat curious how long I could continue doing that before something breaks.

In '99 my 8GB disk died, and shortage of stock gave me a 12GB disk as warranty replacement.

He stated “100GB only” in reply to my comment that I have a 400GB picture library - all own creation, completely unrelated to anything internet.

See other comments from OP where he’s stating that it’d be 100GB total, and anything else would be confiscated if found out.

I disagree there - I think it makes the question pointless as that changes the actual question to “what is the single computing device I decide to keep, after downgrading its storage”. Which in many cases will not even be possible.

100GB is ridiculously low nowadays. I don’t think I have a single device in regular use (including my phone) with such small storage.

Just my picture archive (that is, pictures I took since I got mit first digital camera) is about 400GB.

That was a reason back then to pay for a distribution box - it came with a very good printed manual. Which had beginner friendly sections like “now that you have a running system let’s configure and build a kernel matching your hardware”.

I read about that, and my first thought was that bike lanes adjacent to streets indeed aren’t a great thing - but then again, you probably don’t have all the bike/pedestrian only paths offering way shorter connections we have here. In the area I live in I can reach pretty much any house by foot within 5-10 minutes - while most of them are only reachable by car with a lengthy detour, if at all.

Over here in Europe we’d just arrive by public transport.

I’ve been quite impressed with spain for a while. I remember when that tank stuff started and pretty much every country then had excuses to send less than what they originally were thinking about - and spain announced they’ll send less as the tanks are broken. It sounded like all the other excuses - but instead Spain steadily has been fixing and delivering way more tanks than they originally mentioned.

Finland and only on a few connections. I have things at both Hetzner and TeliaSonera - which were using that link. So few things didn’t end up getting routed ideally afterwards.

I’ve been trying to locate what I messed up in my home network earlier today - until I’ve seen this news.

The design of the car heavily influences driver behavior

One part of the design is the “one touchscreen for everything” - which causes accidents by needless distraction for basic tasks. Our last car also fell victim to this - totaled after a Tesla driver crashed into its side due to doing stuff on the screen instead of looking to the road. I don’t quite understand how those things are still considered road legal in the EU, and still hope we’ll eventually get rules prohibiting this kind of UI, and forcing retrofit of existing cars or banning them from driving.

I guess empty ones are hard to find - but some manufacturers (like Foma) are selling their films in them. In other news, I’m drowning in those things.

Some years age when I was still using some more google stuff (like an account for calling out from my PBX) I had each service assigned to its own google account to limit the impact of google doing something crazy to an account.

Apart from playstore youtube red is now the only service left - and that’s about to go as they now made it too expensive, especially taking into account that they enshittified it so much that we’ve blocked it on the TV, and “adfree on TV” was the main use case there…
