Some friends of mine have a Google map going where they pin locations of interest (restaurants, etc).

I was wondering if anyone knew of a non-Google project that might allow for something similar? The goal would be to have a shareable map that a group of invited/ allowed users could add locations and possibly notes to.

I've been wanting to get a privacy screen protector so that you can't see it from the sides, but all the ones I've tried have this 'oily' type of look to it. Maybe this is inherent to the technology, but does anyone know of any that do not have this oily appearance, especially on white screens?

My office/ lab at home uses around 600W when fully running, and I see that there are quite a few power stations that will comfortably handle that, and foldable 4 panel setups that can generate 300-400W.

Would there be any issues plugging a UPS (my lab has a few of them) into a solar power station such as this?

Is there some sort of feature I want to look for such as sin wave, etc to have this work reliably, or does a UPS not really care since the controller in the power station should be normalizing voltage, etc?

What are your thoughts on filen? I don't seem to be able to find a community for them here, but it seems like a pretty solid up and coming company for secure cloud storage options.

A long time ago I came across this channel called DysonShow500 It's a guy performing small jokes of the 'dad' variety.

Years and years have gone by, and I now see he is approaching his 1000th episode.

Just wanted to post here to give him some love and attention :)

I had previously posted about some horizontal line issues I've been having, and I tried a lot of the suggestions I got; Unfortunately the issue persists.

I saw a video today, where someone mentioned that these connections that are basically responsible for raising and lowering the printer head should be somewhat loose, and not tight (as I had them).

Does anyone know if this is true? The video creator said that it is to allow for some 'forgiveness' between the two screws that drive the printer head up and down.

Just about all of my prints have these lines at around the same heights, and I can't figure out why. I tried changing the nozzle, changing the layer height from 0.15 to 0.12, and changing the speed from 60mm to 40mm. All of these seemed to have helped a bit, yet they remain. I was thinking maybe as the prints get to a certain height, the shaking of the bed (Prusa MK2) caused the layers to be slightly offset perhaps. Anyone have any other ideas?

I'm looking to buy an intermediate level printer to upgrade from a MK2, and I'm deciding between a P1S vs a MK4.

I have never considered getting anything other than a Prusa, since I've had such good experiences using mine, however I heard that recently they've switched away from their open source model(?)

That and being made in the EU was the main differentiating factor for me, however I do hear really good things about Bambu printers.

Does anyone have experience with either?

Edit: Found a lot of the information I was looking for here: https://lemmy.world/post/9500502

I've noticed that sometimes when a particular VM/ service is having issues, they all seem to hang. For example, I have a VM hosting my DNS (pihole) and another hosting my media server (jellyfin). If Jellyfin crashes for some reason, my internet in the entire house also goes down because it seems DNS is unable to be reached for a minute or so while the Jellyfin VM recovers.

Is this expected, and is there a way to prevent it?
