I agree, I hated when some of the subs I was in would brag about hitting a number like 100,000 members. After a certain point more members doesn't add any value at best, and and at worst actually hurts the quality of the community. The bigger numbers were just an ego thing for the mods.

Agree, love my NUC but it seems the last few years they haven't been the best option. It seems like they lost touch with what people wanted from them around the time they started releasing models that supported a full size GPU.

Plexamp, the app is great, but its offline/download support is not great either

So far the only bots I've seen have felt very spammy. One example is the piped bot which may have a good cause, but I don't think we need a comment every single time there's a youtube link mentioned.

I have a set on my gravel bike which is probably a better use case than road, but my favorite thing about it is the confidence it gives you after you have an issue. Rather than wondering if a puncture has fully sealed or second guessing if a tire starts feeling soft mid-ride I can just keep an eye on the pressure without stopping. On gravel especially I like knowing the tires are okay during chunky descents. The three wishes I have for them before adding to other bikes are cleaner integration, better price, and doubling as a wheel speed sensor.

Plex allows you to add a list of local IPs that can access your server without authentication, just have to be sure to do it while your internet is up or else you won't be able to log in to edit the setting.

Shame the way it had to end and that the concerts had to be cancelled as well. I have a feeling a lot of the potential new fans are gonna end up staying home.

Yeah, how many batches have sold through doesn’t tell us anything unless we know how many are in each one.

Nah, there’s nothing wrong with that. I’m the same type as you and just print until something goes wrong. While I enjoy the journey of 3D printing, what I really love is the results. As long as you get the result there’s no need to tinker unless you just really love that aspect.

Is there any chance instances will start (or already are) blocking other instances based on instances they're linked to? Similar to the way some subreddits would automatically ban users for participation in other subs, it could further enforce echo chambers. If Lemmy.world is a little more open, I'd hate for it to get blocked by somewhere like Beehaw just for that.

Also interested. I’ve used Home Assistant a few times in the past when I needed to figure out what time I arrived somewhere, and while I was able to find what I needed there’s probably an integration for it that would make it work more like Google’s location history.

Might be worth a shot but unfortunately Octoprint recommends at least a Pi 3. I tried it myself on a 2B and had nonstop issues with print quality from stutters while the Pi was sending gcode to the printer. As soon as I swapped to a 4B the problems disappeared.

I've already seen the popular "unpopular" opinions got carried over from Reddit, so I'm glad to see this tradition got carried over too! Now we just need the OOTL and ELI5 posts from people who clearly understand something and just need an excuse to post a news article.

I had a bike stolen right before COVID and I’m thankful it didn’t happen a month later because it would have been a very long wait. The situation is better than it has been for a few years but I feel your pain, I’m waiting for the revised Aeroad to hit the US. Almost caved and got a different color of the older model today, but my 2019 Endurace still makes me happy so I'm holding out for what I really want. What region and what size/color are you interested in?

I've wanted one for years and finally set aside the money a few months ago, so if it's another few months I think I can wait it out. I'm using a browser extension called Distill to watch the page for any changes, plus watching availability in other countries to see if it gives me any hints when more might arrive in the US.

This is cool and I might give it a shot, but I have to say the name can easily be confused with wandrer.earth. Slightly different purpose but it’s in the same space, so at first I thought this was an open source variant of it.

Duck DNS

Maybe it's been implemented by now, but when I set it up I was disappointed to realize there's not an API. Previously I was using Statping and had a Slack bot that employee could use to check the status of everything. I saw that there was a project you could install alongside Uptime Kuma to add API endpoints, but I didn't take the time to set it up.
