I didn’t get age verification ever, if I did I just shouldn’t use the site. I do get websites that arbitrarily prevent access if you’re using a VPN which is highly annoying.

How’s that supposed to work with ssh keys?

Everyone was born at 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970

They live in their own paranoid delusional world where everyone is out to get them and they are the heroes between bad and good.

You can also get a faraday bag.

I’ve used cheaper thin clients in the past. You can get them much cheaper than $50 and they come ready to go with storage, power supply, and case.

The price didn’t go down, he’s factoring in current ram prices. $250 for an rpi 5 is wild.

To start with I would put it back to stock.

I have the 9a on stock and the battery life is not that great compared to my old cheap phone. If I forget to turn off GPS then it doesn’t last the whole day.

One thing I’ve run into is not performance with old hardware but missing features from the CPU/GPU. Think of tpm 2.0 requirements for Windows 11. There’s other obscure instruction sets that newer games and programs require such as resizeable bar if you want to run a local llm.

The government already knows where most of these people are. They’re just grifting and terrorizing people.

I bought a used V3 with 3 rolls of filament for $60 USD. Creality sells refirbs on their eBay page. I would go with half of whatever that is.

Kobra neo, a cheap printer to begin with. The y axis rail is extruded aluminum. Where they drilled the holes in the middle to attach it to the frame it pushed the aluminum out by a few thousands. Adjusting the carriage is either really tight in the middle of the rail or loose on the ends. The bed was also bent when I got it (common issue). I bent it back and added bed adjusters because otherwise the auto need leveling just couldn’t compensate. It broke a y belt (common issue). It still has issues printing. I cannot get it to print petg at all even though the same roll of filament will work fine on another printer. All in all I wish I never bought the thing due to their poor quality control. It still prints PLA good enough so I keep it around because I wouldn’t get anything if I try to sell it.

After having had an Anycubic printer, I would be extremely hesitant to buy one based on the quality of the one I have.

I picked up a used ender 3 V3 se off of marketplace for $60 and had to repair it. Since then it’s been printing 10x better than my anycubic kobra neo. I think it comes down to slicer profiles in orca slicer. The ender 3 was a wildly popular printer compared to the kobra. Cheap printers cut corners but can still print good. If you’re not mechanically inclined then don’t get a cheap printer.

Yesterday there was an article stating that Microsoft has more hardware in inventory than they can actually power on.

A billion rubles? The company has been allowing outside actors to manipulate the platform since at least 2016. No way they let them do that for free.

I bought it from their official eBay store it’s cheaper there than on Amazon

That’s weird, there’s different kinds of sensors, some are just a basic switch and others are optical sensors and then there’s some that are a wheel that sense movement. My guess is that you have an optical sensor.

It pauses the print and waits for you to replace the filament so you could use up small rolls. It would also stop if the filament breaks, depending on where it breaks of course.
