    Has anyone tried the nextcloud &amp;quot;AIO&amp;quot; container image? A friend wants to use it but it gives me serious heebie jeebies / 🚨🚨🚨

    I’m possibly over thinking my new ice skates. Still undecided

    A fantastically in-depth look at some visage remixes. I love this blog http://www.versioncrazy.com/2026/04/07/visage-fade-to-grey-1988-cd-single/ #music

    Is OneDrive serious software used by actual people? I’ve been sent a share link to some files which aren’t numerous or especially large and it’s sending me ZIPs at about 10kiB/s which end up containing only half the files and an apologetic __all_errors.txt listing the missing ones. 🤡🤡🤡

    I attempted to download all items in an archive.org collection via torrents (&amp;gt;255 items, &amp;gt;255 torrents). Theory being: potential to get some data from peers, lighten the load on IA; built-in checksumming and repair. I&amp;#39;ve come to the conclusion that sadly this doesn&amp;#39;t work very well. My torrent daemon struggles with so many; lots are permanently at 99%; IA torrents don&amp;#39;t include any metadata identifying original vs derived files

    First skate on new skates. Feel mostly good!

    Found a way to speed up `xfs_repair`: `mkfs.ext4`

    You can take my middle-click paste from my cold, dead hands

    Is there any way to tell Prusa Connect that your printer nozzle size has changed?#3dprinting

  • Post #989220

    Prusa Mini+ re-assembled with a new heatblock (and nozzle); first layer calibration looks ok, mostly; Prusa Connect agrees on the nozzle size; all that remains is a test print and hopefully we’re back in business #3dprinting

    I finally settled on some new ice skates and placed an order. Now I’m impatient for them to arrive! And I’m not sure they’ll fit, it might take a few iterations

    Is YouTube’s “clip” feature entirely non-functional for anyone else?

    New blog post: Digital gardening https://jmtd.net/log/gardening/ Where I ponder the notion of a digital garden, versus a blog, and point at some recent changes I&amp;#39;ve made to my homepage which are not blog posts. #meta #web

    TIL rainbows have pink in them.

    Got four out of 5 of the awkward screws out of my printer heat block. The last one could probably be cut if I can’t turn it. Assuming I’m sacrificing the heat block.

    How&amp;#39;s your friday going?

  • Post #857805

    Plugged my synth back in. That’s a start.

  • Post #857804

    Finished “Robocop: rogue city” so I uninstalled it. Then I thought I’d check out the art book, but it’s “DLC”, so the steam client will only let me download it if I reinstall 30G of game first. (I’m fairly sure there’s some obscure runes to download the “depot” to work around this)

    The number of static site generators appears to be increasing faster than the number of blog posts

    What are the odds of Apple unveiling a mini iPhone again this year? It’s been awhile.

    Dann, my 3d printer isn’t working again.

    Happy “two weeks of chaos whilst the world slowly settles into daylight savings time” for those who celebrate

  • Post #632431

    I can&amp;#39;t reliably print on my Prusa Mini+ any more and I haven&amp;#39;t since they introduced input shaping. I don&amp;#39;t know if that&amp;#39;s what the problem is, but I&amp;#39;m ruling out most other possibilities: I&amp;#39;ve just done a nozzle clean and a cold pull, no avail
