Here’s how much Google says it’d cost to fulfill Epic’s biggest demands
  • They just need a way to let users grant that store the necessary permissions to install and manage apps, which currently requires root

    No it doesn't? I'm using fdroid to install and manage apps just fine on an Android device without root access.

  • Microsoft really wants Local accounts gone after it erases its guide on how to create them
  • I suppose it is automatic on Window

    No it's not... When you have no OS on a computer you still have to create the bootable USB for windows in the exact same way as with Linux, you still need to boot with it the exact same way and follow the installation instructions. The process is identical with the same level of "complexity".

  • Microsoft really wants Local accounts gone after it erases its guide on how to create them
  • I mean, obviously...but that's not really something that's going to change. And today it is a seriously low barrier to pass, I'm not sure how it could go any lower, aside from.maybe buying a pre-made USB stick for installation. It already requires literally no skill other than basic reading comprehension. There is a plethora of step-by-step guides online, the only thing really keeping people from switching is their own inertia.

  • Microsoft really wants Local accounts gone after it erases its guide on how to create them
  • Then you have to install other software I have no knowledge of to make a bootable drive

    Eh, this is the same for windows as well, you always need some sort of installation medium to boot and install from regardless of OS.

  • Privacy friendly art home alert system?
  • Fair enough, then I would probably go with something like the Shelly flood. All their stuff is ridiculously simple to setup and manage, some of it is even able to run without internet and only local WIFI.

  • Variable layer height?

    Is there a slicer that let's you configure sections of the model to print at a different layer height?

    I often have some larger models I'm printing, and 0.3mm layers are just fine for this to speed things up, but some of the overhangs print very poorly with thick layers and require thinner layers to print well.

    Major issues with klipper and bed levelling

    I recently made the switch from the marlin-based stock firmware on my anycubic kobra 2, to klipper. I didn't have issues with bed levelling or first layer on the stock firmware, but I'm having significant issues running klipper. The bed is uneven, the probed mesh shows a deviation of 0.197mm, it was the same when running stock FW+octoprint.

    But it seemed to be correcting just fine for this on the stock FW. I got a consistent decent first layer across the entire bed.

    With klipper, it's absolutely impossible to get it to correct for this unevenness. Half the bed will get perfect first layer, but then the second half is either way too squished or hardly connecting to the bed. And it's causing further issues as it's also hitting the print when moving, despite having Z-hop of 0.3mm for travel moves.

    What the hell is going on? How do I fix this?

    Loud noise coming from Y-axis
    streamable.com Y-axis noise

    Watch "Y-axis noise" on Streamable.

    Y-axis noise

    I have this incredibly loud noise coming from my Y-axis. It doesn't affect print quality, but it is horrible to listen to and really loud. It is present when the Y-axis moves at ~100mm/s and gets worse/louder as speed increases.

    How can I mitigate this? There doesn't seem to be any mechanical issues when I move the bed by hand, it is smooth and easy to move.
