I’m not overly concerned about my instance running behind a reverse proxy. Perhaps I am just naive…
Why would they need to connect to a VPN every time they connect to Jellyfin?
Ah, got it! That sounds like an unhealthy amount of trust to give to a container, but I understand the need to give that access to the mastercontainer.
rsync from one server to the other.
When actually loading in the backup from the Nextcloud AIO interface, I specified the path on my local system (not the container).
I don’t see the difference
I consider storing articles more as building a starting-point for research, rather than something I definitely think I will read at some point. I store by topic that is of interest to me, and when I want to do a deep-dive, I already have a bunch of articles waiting for me.
I use Zotero for this. Used to use it as purely a reference manager for scientific papers, but started storing all kinds of stuff for archiving or later reading. My workflow is getting all news/articles I might want to read from RSS, and add to Zotero what I want to keep.
With the browser plugin you can store snapshots as well, so you can preserve it if it changes or is taken down. Not sure how a mobile experience would be as I only filter RSS-items on my phone, but no reading.
You can use file sync through a paid subscription or use youe own WebDAV server for it (I will be moving to this). Other than that, it is a database and folder with files, so you can probably use SyncThing or store it directly in Nextcloud also I would think.
I am a folder-person, but it also supports tags so you have flexibility in how you organize.
I just got my Core One last week (also first time buyer), and my first impressions are very good.
ETA: I got a lot of helpful comments in a thread I posted last year: https://lemmy.ml/post/23563961
ETA: Hm, how thick do you think the walls would have to be?
Oh, that could be a much better solution. How would you design the reservoir filling system in that case? It would be difficult accessing the rear reservoirs directly, but I could maybe make something with cheap PVC-pipes. Ideally I would fill it from only one point, and I eventually plan to have some sensors measuring the water level in the reservoir(s)
Did you try FreeCAD after v1.0 release? I heard it got more intuitive with the release. I would prefer to stick to FOSS tools, and Fusion360 does also not seem to have a native Linux version?
But yeah, it is the impression I have gotten that FreeCAD is not very easy to get started with and why I thought to stick with what I know (Blender) for my first project.
Thanks!
This is pretty darn ambitious for a starter project. I say this as someone who is trying to get some fancy new 3D printable tomato cages going before the plants get tall and dangerous and I’ve been doing this for a while.
Yeah, I realize it is ambitious, but my inexperience is perhaps making me think this will be doable from the get-go when it’s really not? We’ll see… I have a limited time before it no longer makes much sense to pursue this this year, so at some point I will need to cut my losses if I haven’t gotten anywhere.
So you really probably want to de-complicate this, either by only making planters that are sized for the printer or finding a existing planter that’s the right size but not self-watering and designing just the self-watering part. You’ll probably learn a lot about the right way to do one this year and then next year you can attack the next generation of the planters.
The design itself will be quite uncomplicated: a bottom container which will hold the water, and then some plates that will hold the soil, supported by the cups that will be submersed into the water that will be packed with soil and perforated to allow absorption. I was planning on lining these plates with some soil fabric so I could keep them loose, only with holes cut out for the cups. The reservoir will be filled through a PVC-pipe that leads from the top and down to the reservoir. I will then build this in with wooden panels (loose, as I otherwise would be unable to get the whole thing inside the shelf where these will go).
One of my big problems last year was finding anything of the right dimensions already existing. They will need to fit inside the shelf.
The problem with printing in pieces is that you are going to have to make sure that the joints are strong enough for the weight of the soil. This is why using a ready-made outer container might help. In the same way, what you really want is something finger-ish or jigsaw-ish so that the pieces align themselves more easily and interlock.
The soil container will have a quite broad base compared to the height. The plates that will hold up the soil will be supported by these cups as described above, and I can make these cups as broad as I need. Are PLA or PETG not particularly strong?
How do people achieve these interlocking patterns - standard tools in the software, plugins or do you do this manually?
You will probably want a fatter nozzle, otherwise this is going to take forever to print.
Oh, good point I didn’t think about, and adding this to be research list. I guess it is delivered with a 0.6mm nozzle.
PETG seems to have worked fairly well for me for outdoor stuff? Coating or paint or whatnot is handy. You might want to look at the epoxy family? If you can print on the balcony, you might consider ASA which is totally fine for outdoor use with no paint.
Cheers! Two suggestions for PETG, so I should probably order some filament already! And adding epoxy to my research list, thanks :) Printing on the balcony will unfortunately not be an option for now.
FreeCAD is a bit of a learning curve? The thing that FreeCAD would make easier is a parametric model, where you say that you want a 400 x 400 x 300 planter. Except that if you are really serious about making large self-watering planters that are parametric, you are going to end up wanting to write code to make it all happen, which either means the Python in FreeCAD, the Python in Blender, or maybe just use OpenSCAD.
I will need to look into parametric modelling it seems. Python I am very familiar with, so making use of that in modelling would in any case be a good skill to acquire. My instinct was just to add a mesh in Blender and resize to my desired dimensions and that would be good enough. My tolerance for the outer parts here is quite high, but for the joints I would want higher precision. OpenSCAD I have not heard about, so I will check out that.
The dimensions of the planter would be 120x40x40 cm ish (based on eyesight from where I am sitting).
One avenue, which is also too big of an ask for this season, is making a multi-part model to cast the large pieces in concrete.
Oh, interesting - that is far from anything I’ve considered. But yeah, not quite something I would be ready to tackle for this season.
Another avenue would be to just design around the outside being wood and the 3D printed parts being brackets and jigs and connectors and the self-watering bits.
It is not that far from what I am going for actually, but the self-watering parts is basically a water reservoir, so it would need to be a water-tight container. Had I only been able to find boxes of proper dimensions where I live, I would not even consider trying to 3D-print this. But they are either too tall, too deep or not long enough.
Ambitious early project.
Hehe yeah, I would have gone with something else as my first project had it not been for the fact that I want these planters soon. I had hoped to get the printer earlier, but after asking for advice on my printer purchase here end of last year, I got a compelling advice to at least wait for first reviews before deciding, and by that time Prusa had a backlog on orders.
I’d probably go with petg.
Due it to being outdoors?
There are plenty of good tutorials / suggestions for general water tightness with regards to slicer settings. Water tight joints will be tricky. Consider sanding and then torching them. I’ve had good results with clearcoat spray after sanding pla. May work with petg too.
Nice, will check that out in more details! Are clearcoats typically non-toxic? Torching the joints sounds like a good idea - what would you typically use for that, a standard crème brûlée burner? I plan on making smaller prototypes to test out any concepts out before making a huge one.
Curious why you didn’t go with xl for this? Cost?
Cost is one major reason, the Core One was at the top-end of my budget, but it is not the only one. The Core One otherwise fit my requirements very well, and the XL would also not be able to print this in one go. This is by far the largest pieces I have planned on printing, and all the other prints on my “todo”-list will fit in it just fine. I wanted one with an enclosure, and I didn’t like the look of the XL with an enclosure, as it will be quite visible where it will be placed, and I’m the kind of person who would care. And I also believe the footprint of the XL is larger? In that case, I am not so sure if it would even fit on the designated space for it.
Finamp you mean?
The reason a very small subset of users love it*
All the downloads making it the top app in the app stores are from people using their centralized service. The people behind these downloads have no clue that you can run it locally or can even start to understand what that would even mean. It is this usage the article is addressing.
Like the thread starter, I am also confused to why this in particular draws so much hate.
Yeah, me too. It is quick and easy. I use SyncThing for things I want to keep synced.
I run CalyxOS on FP4, and I like it. It also has FP5 support. As far as I know, mobile Linux distros like postmarketOS work on (at least) FP4, but key phone functionality is lacking. There’s a functionality matrix on their wiki.
If you only consider the print performance, sure. But the point here is that you pay a hidden fee when going with more locked down solutions, and you should factor that into your assessment of the price as well. You might still end up with the same conclusion, but for me, avoiding enshitification traps is worth a lot more than a penny.
Forgejo for self-hosted source control?
And this has actually happened before?
