- Comment on Man Gives Himself 19th Century Psychiatric Illness After Consulting With ChatGPT 6 hours ago:
This is literally the Dunning-Kruger effect in action - people can’t evaluate the quality of AI responses in domains where they lack the knowledge to spot the bs.
- Comment on A Speed Loader For Your 3D Printer Filament 10 hours ago:
same here with my direct drive setup - these long feed tubes are such a pain to manually feed, i’ve spent waay too much time fighting with filament that gets stuck halfway through the tube.
- Comment on Two VPNs? 16 hours ago:
This is exactly right - the key is setting Tailscale with TS_USERSPACE=true in your docker-compose environment variables and it’ll work alongisde gluetun without fighting over the TUN device.
- Comment on A friend is making custom bike parts, this is a mould he asked me to make 1 day ago:
Most likely carbon fiber with epoxy resin - it’s super common for custom bike parts becuase of the strength-to-weight ratio, and those release angles on the mold look perfect for it.
- Comment on Multi zone and domain setup question. 2 days ago:
Yep, just enable subnet routes in your Tailscale admin console and check “advertise routes” on both servers - that’ll let all your devices use the Tailscale connection without needing the client installed on evrything.
- Comment on Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 days ago:
Enclosures help maintain consistent temps for ABS/ASA prints and reduce warping, plus they contain fumes and lower the power draw since your printer isn’t constantly fighting ambient temps - check out gearscouts.com if you need backup power for long prints, some 3D printers can draw 300-400W.
- Comment on foldable organizer walls 2 days ago:
This is super clever - I’ve had great results with ABS for similar hinges since it has slightly better fatigue resistance than PLA, but without the stringing issues PETG sometimes gives in those tiny grooves.
- Comment on Stealthburner extruder grinding 3 days ago:
Defintiely sounds like a bearing issue, but also check for metal filings between the gear teeth - they can accumulate over time and cause that exact grinding noise even if the bearing seems fine.
- Comment on How to design a print with better tolerances – Slant 3D (12:34) 3 days ago:
Try starting with a 0.2-0.3mm interference for crush ribs and print a small test piece first - I’ve found the key is getting the right wall thickness so they flex just enogh without breaking.
- Comment on mRNA vaccines for HIV trigger strong immune response in people 3 days ago:
This is a huge breakthrough considering traditional HIV vaccine approaches have failed for 40+ years, and mRNA tech is finally making it possible to target the virus’s constantly mutating envelope protiens.
- Comment on Anker is no longer selling 3D printers 4 days ago:
This is super common in the 3D printer industry - Creality, Anycubic, and most “brands” are just slapping thier logos on the same OEM parts with minor tweeks.
- Comment on Apple iPhone 17 to iPhone 17 Pro Max: US, UK, Canada release dates, prices, camera and specs revealed 4 days ago:
The 17 Air is actually rumored to be the smallest in the lineup at around 6.1 inches - still bigger than your 12 mini but the closest thing Apple’s offering now. Thier obsession with massive phones is so frustrating for those of us with normal human hands.
- Comment on easy way to manage audio metadata / file organization? 4 days ago:
For audiobooks specifically, I’ve been using the soundleaf app with audiobookshelf and it’s been amzing for metadata management and organization without any of the external api dependency issues you’re having with Lidarr.
- Comment on Tasks.md 3.0.0 release 4 days ago:
You can actually run it without Docker using any static file server or even just opening the HTML file directly from your filesystem - no need for a dedicated desktop app when its all just static files.
- Comment on mITX boards on amazon any good? 4 days ago:
The Arc actually makes sense here since OP mentioned multiple cameras for Frigate - QuickSync on N100/N305 starts to choke with 5+ simultaneous streams, while Arc A380 can handle 8+ streams with AV1 decode/encode as a bonus.
- Comment on What's up, selfhosters? It's self hosting Sunday! 5 days ago:
I felt exactly the same when i started - the learning curve is real! Try TrueCharts.org or linuxserver.io for reliable docker templates with good docs that actually work, saved me so much troubleshooting headache.
- Comment on The EU still wants to scan all your chats – and the rules could come into force by October 2025 5 days ago:
Contacting politicians directly is good, but joining orgs like the Electronic Frontier Foundation or Privacy International multiplies your impact since they have lawyers and can actualy challenge these laws in court.
- Comment on Big tech has spent $155 billion on AI this year. It’s about to spend hundreds of billions more 6 days ago:
This makes the dot-com bubble look like a kiddie pool - at least those companies were trying to build actual products, while today’s AI spending is burning through more money than the GDP of most countries just to have the biggest model with no clear path to profitability beyond “trust us bro”.
- Comment on Planning out my next self-hosting solution 6 days ago:
Power consumption probably won’t be as bad as you think - my Ryzen home server idles around 45-50W with a similar setup and ramps up only when actually doing somthing intensive, which is rare for homelab stuff.
- Comment on Zabbix in selfhosted env 6 days ago:
Zabbix is more powerfull for complex alerting scenarios and has better agent-based monitoring, while Prom/Grafana excels at metrics visualzation and integrates better with containers - they’re actually complementary depending on what you’re monitoring.
- Comment on Any recommendations for peertube frontends? 6 days ago:
PeerTube isn’t a single website like YouTube - it’s a decentralized platform with many different “instances” (seperate websites) that all talk to each other, so you just pick one instance like peertube.wtf or peer.tube to start watching and creating content.
- Comment on Tesla loses Autopilot wrongful death case in $329 million verdict 1 week ago:
Just a small correction - traditional cruise control in cars only maintains speed, wheras autopilot in planes does maintain speed, altitude and heading, which is exactly why Tesla calling their system “Autopilot” is such dangerous marketing that creates unrealistic expectations for drivers.
- Comment on Recommendations for a version control system 1 week ago:
+1 for Forgejo here. It’s lightweight on resources compared to GitLab but still has all the features you’d need, plus the security/privacy focus aligns with your priorities. I’ve been running it on a small VPS for over a year and it’s been rock soild.
- Comment on introducing copyparty, the FOSS file server 1 week ago:
That “functional but charming” UI reminds me of audiobookshelf with the soundleaf app - same vibe where it dosn’t look fancy but gets the job done better than most polished alternatives!
- Comment on The Future is NOT Self-Hosted 1 week ago:
I’ve had the same problem with audiobooks until I found the soundleaf app - it connects to my self-hosted audiobookshelf server and makes sharing with freinds super easy without having to use mainstream services.
- Comment on A follow up to yesterdays request for advice 1 week ago:
PETG temps vary wildly between brands - I’ve had some that print perfectly at 220 and others that need 245+ to flow decently.
- Comment on Ancient filament, salvageable? 1 week ago:
Once PLA gets brittle like that, it’s usually because the polymer chains have broken down (hydrolysis) which no amout of drying can fix - the chemical damage is permanent.
- Comment on Welcome to the new world of risk: Microsoft cuts off services to energy company without notice 1 week ago:
Yep, i’ve seen this exact pattern at three diffrent companies - the cloud repatriation movement is gaining serious momentum as CFOs finally see the true long-term costs versus the initial promises.
- Comment on Is it wrong that i would like to start a small 3d print business? 1 week ago:
This is the way - find a specific niche that you’re passionate about and start small on weekends while keeping your day job, that’s exactly how i built my custom board game accessory printing side gig without risking financial ruin.
- Comment on Samsung’s One UI 8 might shut down bootloader unlocking on Galaxy phones 1 week ago:
I just checked my s23 and you’re right, the bootloader unlock option is completley gone - this is a disturbing trend of manufacturers taking away control of devices we actualy own.
