Hi folks,

A while back, I released the flow MX36 and was working on a companion keyboard with choc keys. I've been using it for around 6 months but I haven't released it for a few reasons. I thought that I'd provide an update just for fun. Below are the outstanding errata items:

• in an effort to minimize finger movement, I jammed the keys as close as I could. As a result, unfortunately it only works with Asymplex ChicagoSteno's...which I love btw.
• after using it for a while, I want to squish the col-col spacing.I initially liked some space between the cols, but now I want to try a squished version.
• I haven't confirmed that both sides work with the choc amoebas. I've built up the trackball side with amoebas but I don't know if the other side works with amoebas, i.e. has no internal interference.

So why is it taking so long? Well, my personal motivation is taking a backseat for other aspects of life...namely my kids and reading books.

Anyway, below are some pics. Happy typing!

Hi folks, I have yunohost up and going on an old Lenovo desktop - works great and was really easy to get operational. Jellyfin is working and I've manually dumped in some media to test it out.

On another windows machine, I have SABnzbd working and have been able to get some media.

And here's where I'm stuck. How do I get a Usenet client on yunohost? SABnzbd isn't a yunohost app, and I can't find another client in the app list. I've tried and failed to point sonarr at SABnzbd on the other computer, but I wouldn't want that as a longterm solution anyway. Is it possible to apt-get install SAB on yunohost? It's just debian afterall. Seems risky.

Any help would be greatly appreciated 👍

Hi folks, I have yunohost running with navidrome. I’d like to connect a client to the server on my android phone (Symfonium) but I can’t get it to connect to my navidrome server.

I see in the yunohost docs that I “must activate public site if you want to connect a client player to Navidrome.”, but I can’t find any documentation about how to do this. I thought this might refer to enabling guest access, so I added the “visitors” to the permissions…no effect.

I’ve also tried the airsonic-advanced app, but couldn’t get it to work either. I thought I might have to port forward 4533, but that didn’t see to have any effect.

Not sure where to go from here…any ideas?

Hi folks, I've had my ender 3 v2 for around 2 years and it's been trouble-free until lately. Recently, I've had major issues with the first layer. I found a few worn components, so I got a dual gear extruder and replaced the nozzle, recald the esteps, bed level and z offset. Nothing I do seems to work.

The issue happens on the first layer when it first starts to extrude. The first 5mm or so of extrusion curls up behind the nozzle, then the extrusion sticks to the bed and it continues normally... Until it needs to starts a new extrusion, then the same thing happens...the curl.

I have to think it's something with temperature, but I haven't changed anything about the filament since these issues started.

Looking for any advice. Thanks!

Curious if the subreddit had been reopened? I fully intend to stay on Lemmy, I've been having a great time on this platform and new community.

I'm asking because someone replied to one of my very old posts, which made me wonder if it was accessible again...looks like it is. Is this just more Reddit hooliganery?

Ok so I actually found a good deal on Amazon Prime day for something that's useful (I think)…the direct sprite extruder is $30 off (in Canada). Seems to have good reviews, but I don’t know what it actually improves. My printer gets about as much TLC as my hammers, and aside from this under-extrusion bs I’ve been trying to figure out, it’s still banging out prints. Thoughts?

Thanks!

Hi folks, I'm just getting into this hobby thanks to the posts in this community. So far, I've installed Ubuntu server 22.04 on an old laptop and got paperless working, and I'm pretty pumped. Now I would like to access it outside of my home network on my phone.

I have a Netgear R7000 with Advanced Tomato installed. Here's my plan, but I don't know if it would work... So I'm hoping for a peer review of sorts.

• Get openVPN working on the router as a server.
• make a certificate for my phone and use it as a client.
• use my fedora laptop as the CA (?).

I think I need to use easy-RDA to make the keys and certificates...

Does that sound about right? It's this a good approach or is there something better/easier/more effective?

If there's a great tutorial around for accessing the home network externally, I'd super appreciate it. Would obviously prefer to do it myself and not pay for a service... I've been enjoying the learning experience!

Hi folks, I've been working on this keyboard pretty much since January of this year, and I've finally got it to the point that I can call it done! If you'd like to build one, all files are available here.

This is an MX-based keyboard, 36 keys with integrated trackball. The github page has a bunch more details. I also have a choc version in dev using the same style that's based off the Trinidox.

Let me know what you think!

Biggest ones I've seen yet... they were all comfy under an old leaf pile.
