Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I'd rather just have an ethernet port on the damn printer. You shouldn't have to cludge together basic network device functionality on devices that expensive

It's better to just install klipper on a pi or other SBC

At least my 3d printer was so inexpensive it's silly.

I'm pretty happy that the engineering team that built it doesn't need to worry about networking code and maintaining a networked device. Jappy that an open source community does it instead.
