It’s selfish. Dont post questions to a public forum if you don’t want them public. We’re a community, not a concierge service.
- Comment on This community isn't your personal adviser 1 day ago:
Lemmy in general, yes. Here in self hosted at least a couple of times that I’ve seen. Including earlier today. But I don’t interact on every post.
I only find out because sometimes I like to go back to posts I comment on and see what additional information people have offered. (There’s always something to learn.) Then I find the post has been deleted.

- Comment on DIY android TV 1 day ago:
x86 is impossible unless you know for certain the app(s) you want to use is compatible with the hardware you choose.
I’m guessing you don’t plan to stream from anything other than your own library? No commercial streaming apps will work with non-certified android hardware due to DRM. And the hardware software combo must be certified on a per app basis, so that means you have to buy an off the shelf device and cannot replace the OS if you plan to pay for streaming services.
You are also unlikely to find any pre-built images for any old hardware you put together.
Your best bet is to go onto the XDA forums and see what hardware people are already using and supporting with builds. This will get you the best results. Otherwise you’re likely compiling custom builds yourself.
- Comment on Biggest print so far. About 42 hours and 2.6kg of filament. No, I don't have room for a table saw, how did you know? 1 week ago:
This is definitely one of those, “I dont have access to a tablesaw” prints. I feel you, I’ve got no room for one either.
- Comment on What is the best (liquid) glue for gluing PLA prints together? 1 week ago:
Its acrylic based but very thick. So it would leave white marks but it’s not going to get all over easily.
- Comment on What is the best (liquid) glue for gluing PLA prints together? 1 week ago:
Sci-Grip 16 for bonding PLA together. Sand the side of the magnet you are gluing in and use Cyano Acrylate (super glue).

Was anyone still buying flashforge that isn’t an institution?

The original title is incorrect and OP knows it.
- Comment on Why prime tower instead of poop? 2 weeks ago:
Well, turn it off and see how the quality goes.
- Comment on Why prime tower instead of poop? 2 weeks ago:
Because of gravity and time.
- Comment on Why prime tower instead of poop? 2 weeks ago:
Wiping to avoid dripping from the travel.
- Comment on Water stress by country, measured as freshwater withdrawals relative to renewable water resources (2022) 2 weeks ago:
I would love to see the US broken out by state, the west is mostly fucked. Especially with the amount of migration its seen the last decade.
- Comment on odd 3d printing issue 3 weeks ago:
Looks mechanical. Is it always that corner no matter the print? Check everything where the stress changes as the toolhead moves.
- Comment on What software are you using for CAD/modeling? 3 weeks ago:
Curious what the hangup with that is?
- Comment on What software are you using for CAD/modeling? 3 weeks ago:
OK, use the free tier if you don’t sell… And if you don’t like the terms, FreeCAD is your option.
- Comment on What software are you using for CAD/modeling? 3 weeks ago:
I am a big fan of OnShape, its free for personal use. By that they mean that all your projects are publicly accessible when using the free options. Otherwise its the same as the paid option. As a hobbiest this is fine with me because I am putting all my stuff up with a creative commons license anyway. It is my way of giving back to a community that has given me so many designs for free.
Teaching tech did a great introductory series on it which includes a video about why he chose on shape.

If you have experience with other cad programs you’ll probably get through the videos quickly as the concepts translate from software to software, its just a difference in interface and execution.
- Comment on Replacing a bathroom showerpan: $9k+ 5 weeks ago:
This is great advice. And yeah $16k sounds a lot like “I don’t want to open this can of worms.”
- Comment on How would you answer the "ecological" question on self hosting and federated networks ? 2 months ago:
Most large federated servers are hosted on VPS like solutions, not some old PC in someone’s closet. They are very similar to the types of machines that large companies host centralized social media on.
- Comment on Just an FYI, but ErsatzTV is no longer maintained if you use it. 2 months ago:
There’s a PseudoTV plugin for emby which makes compatibility with jellyfin very likely.
- Comment on Booklore is officially dead 2 months ago:
I saw your thesis about how the community needs to not drive off maintainers. But that’s not what happened here. There was a dispute between maintainers over the integrity of the code being dumped into the repo by one Dev. It wasn’t some kneejerk reaction to AI, it was the people who help develop the project themselves worried about the longevity and maintenance when huge amounts of slop code are being pulled in faster than it can be checked. If your had any idea the real problems that open source maintainers are dealing with around AI slop right now you might had had the sense to not get on your soapbox about the wrong issue.
- Comment on Booklore is officially dead 2 months ago:
So, completely uneducated about the real issues that led to this, you decided this was a good opportunity for your pro AI soap box.
Yeah, there’s definitely a reason we can’t have reasonable coverslip conversations around AI.
- Comment on Booklore is officially dead 2 months ago:
It would if he was dumping huge portions of AI generated code into it the repository faster than people could reasonably review it.
- Comment on Turned attic space into a small office/playroom 2 months ago:
I see you’ve got the vent in there now.
- Comment on Turned attic space into a small office/playroom 2 months ago:
Looks good, I can feel myself sweating already.
- Comment on Password manager woes. How have you solved syncing on Android? 2 months ago:
Vaultwarden with the Bitwarden Android app and browser extension for my desktop. I already have a solid system for backing up the important data for all my docker containers. As soon as I added it, it was automatically added to that process.
My spouse has an account so if I side she can gain access to my passwords with a simple request. That’s function is important to me.
- Comment on 3D Printing’s Biggest Scam Is Even Worse Than We Thought! (PLA-CF) 5 months ago:
Hence why most printers don’t come with brass nozzles anymore. The majority come standard with hardened steel.
- Comment on 3D Printing’s Biggest Scam Is Even Worse Than We Thought! (PLA-CF) 5 months ago:
Fiber impregnated filament is actually really great if the material is prone to warping. It stabilizes the filament and reduces warping cause by shrinkage as the filament cools.
That’s really the only thing it’s good for. So unless you’re printing PLA crazy fast, it’s useless.
- Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica 6 months ago:
It has several unsecured endpoints.
- Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica 6 months ago:
Jellyfin is notoriously full of security holes. It’s recommended to no expose it to the Internet. It’s also easy easier on Plex, at least until this bullshit, to have a random non-techie family member sign in to your Plex server from anywhere. I never liked Plex and never got into it, but I see why people used to prefer it.
I think Emby is a good middle ground for people looking to jump ship from Plex. But I switched to jellyfin from my lifetime Emby sub because the plug-in community there feels dead and Emby development felt dead in the water.
