lol @trashfuture UK you seeing this?

maybe open technically. but my impression of BlueSky is that it is full of neoliberal status quo apologists. would be happy to be wrong.

joplin -> silverbullet

happy with switch, fits my mind flow better. no folders or files.

i was talking about hobby and entry level printing. nevermind. you folks are a lot of fun…

these projects just need help. if you find their code repo or matrix or workspace they are often very receptive to specific feedback like this.

open an issue as next step. your critique is valid but critique is only so helpful when you’re a small dev team trying to do ambitious things. would rather see merge requests.

250C is not low temp for 3D printing tho, noticed that in headline.

sure that is low temp for glass aber above the PLA, ABS, ASA temps i run in vorons.

good for me, like i have money? assuming a lot bub

thanks for sharing about funding and youtube amd repairs. i agree, and you sound cool.

my point is that federated services should be source of truth, and that we can federate to corporate platforms as needed.

for example i use Discord cuz people are there. but i do important stuff in Matrix these days, and copy/paste to Discord as needed. that way we control our work and what is put into the Discord system instead of it being the default. this is my aspiration, migrations take a while.

not all of us care about profit. or at least not in the shove promotions in your face youtube status quo way.

etsy is doing the right thing here. why should you be able to sell stuff you didn’t design there?

the world already has too many plastic articulated dragons. this sort of waste tarnishes reputation of 3d printing as a less wasteful way to create functional parts without shipping, or as an art form.

i invited my friends too. almost seems like if many people do this number goes up.

Everyone has jobs, families, and lives. What is your point?

We did start a nonprofit this year, https://electronica.repair/. We don’t have a lot of money so we do our due diligence on who we support.

use this instead of tailscale or other corporate options. tailscale is going for IPO, their service cannot survive investor greed.

just get a cheap n100 box, don’t overspend

omg and do NOT do fireside chats like you are a bunch of enlightened executives. no wonder you need to beg for donations.

start a nonprofit that hosts services, gather donations for equipment and other stuff.

what is so difficult here?

it would be amazing if geerlingguy was the one to make youtube go mask off

ansible has a learning curve but will save you a lot of time in long run over bash.

write playbooks rhat target groups of similar hosts instead of a playbook for each distinct host, target specific hosts with -l flag of ansible-playbook.

look into molecule for testing sooner than later. helps you be more confident your plays will work as expected vs running trial and error on a host and getting it into a bad state. i run on bare metal so more important for my workflow not to wipe a folder with a typo, etc.

https://forgejo.org selfhosted has been good for me, FOSS fork of Gitea.

I run a k3s cluster for selfhosted apps and keep all the configuration and docs in a git repo. That way I have history of changes and can rollback if needed. In that repo I have a docs folder with markdown documents about common operations and runbooks.

There are other ways to do this, but I like keeping docs next to the code and config so I can update them all at the same time. Deployed several wikis in the past but always forget to update them when I change things.
