Don’t forget the momentary feelings of depression when you start looking into a niche thing and you get overwhelmed by a desire to consume all content and realize there is not enough time in your life to truly give it the attention it deserves. And this makes you feel like I’m a way you’re betraying the countless creators who came before you because you.

Unfortunate. Based on what I can find it’s a solo outfit, so the owner / operator (who I did find but won’t name, just check the blog though) might be indisposed for whatever reason. Couldn’t find anything online though.

Yes that’s good enough! Sorry I missed your statement about shutting down first. To clarify I leave mine running since a dump can recover if it gets corrupt.

Basically my backup contains the database and the SQL dump (or equivalent) - that way I don’t need to shutdown the service.

Most of the time that’s perfectly fine, but if the database were in the middle of an operation you risk corruption.

Individually. If the app requires a DB, I put it in the compose file. This simplifies both backups and migrations. My tooling for backups has a pre and post script I can customize on a per app basis so I just have the pre do whatever *dump for that DB and the post clean it up (backup takes a tar of the folder).

Or don’t give your user docker and use sudo to use the docker CLI to get the same effect. Hell, you could even alias docker as sudo docker to get the same feel.

That’s a little hopeful to hear. When I was researching my purchase I had considered a Qidi machine but the reviews were inconsistent at the time. This was back early '24 though. I think my Microcenter warranty on the P1S is running out soon.

As much as I’m distressed to see the current situation with Bambu Lab I wouldn’t consider it “falling for relentless marketing”. They are/were genuinely ahead of the curve.

I’ve owned 3 different 3D printers before my P1S in the nearly decade I’ve been 3D printing (I got my first in 2017) and Bambu was the first to actually deliver on being “plug and play” when compared to the competition.

I’m hopeful the situation when my P1S kicks the bucket has changed (it may already have but I’m not in the market so I haven’t checked). But for now I’m just not updating the firmware.

Ditto. A smart home that can operate even if the Internet is offline was one of my core goals setting this up. And save for a few exceptions, I accomplished it. It’s so jarring now to go on vacation and not have all this automation.

Maybe make your own post instead of trying to hijack this one with a inflammatory statement masquerading as a question.

The psychological reaction behind a victim’s response is varied and largely unknown. There are many, many factors at play. Fear is a large part, for sure. Our media tends to portray victims poorly - and people react poorly as well. There are so many factors at play that usually culminate in “it’s better if I just keep quiet”. Just like similar factors come into play when it becomes public and now you’re feeling pressure to also speak up.

Honestly I left proxmox/virtualization OSes a while back for simple RHEL. I have Docker for most everything and the few things I need full virt for the features Cockpit provides are more than enough. If I ever get back into clustering I’ll look at proxmox again.

Meshtastic is basically just texting, but there are nodes people setup for BBS purposes.

That’s fun the part - it’s used by nerds testing the network, sending “ping”. And others replying and setting up BBS systems.

Once you adjust it works well. The whole “find something at random to watch” paradigm is not really how *arr works, but if a coworker mentions a show I can have it ready when I get home.

When it comes to answering questions that I feel are basic, I’ve had to acknowledge that other people have different strengths. Like this xkcd.

Instead I go based on repeat answers to the same or substantially similar question. If I have to explain something 3 times in as little time, I might start to feel annoyed.

Of course though I won’t every let it show, so the only real impact it makes is their ranking on my internal leaderboard of coworkers I’d be happy to see quit lol.

I like to tell my juniors “readable code is maintainable code”. 9 out of 10 times a comment could instead just be choosing better names.

I had a CR-10 vSomething a while back. Never really knew the version because it seemed like amalgamation of all their revisions.

I spent more time calibrating and dialing it in than actually printing. That was the first and last Creality product I owned.

I currently have a P1S but with the anti-consumer show they’ve been putting on if I do have to replace it I think the only printer I’d consider is something Prusa. Even though I’ve never had one, my first printer was a crappy Prusa clone that still was easier than anything else I’ve had aside from the P1S.

Have you rebooted the phone recently?

Yeah this is news to me. Apparently I’m supposed to give French people shit? Sounds like a hassle.
