  • Whatever way you go for setting up the systems themselves, I’ve found dwservice.net to be perfect for accessing systems with only a browser.

    The host component is Mac, Windows and Linux compatible. The clients need only an account at DW. Hosts tied to your own account can be shared with others.

    Depending on host OS, you get screen, terminal and fire transfer access. Sessions are logged if you need to review who’s accessed what.

    Free. Donation optional.




  • Release your models under a license that requires the printer that prints it to be open source.

    That has about as much sway as me telling you what bowl you must eat your breakfast from. Completely unenforceable.

    Restricting models in such a way is also in itself against core values.

    Bambu make great printing appliances but that’s about it. It’s still a good recommendation for someone who just wants to print as a starting point, and unconcerned with much else. The same kind of people would buy OEM cartridges at 3-5x cost for their paper printers and simply don’t care. File goes in, model comes out. Vendor lock-in doesn’t matter to them.

    Other options exist for those of us who want to tinker, learn a thing or two, or simply just be in control of their shit.

    Still, there will always be a ‘but…’ when I’m mentioning the company to someone looking to start printing. Then they can decide based on their own values.



  • Aftermarket OS options are getting better as time goes by, which is nice. Come a long way since the old Cyanogenmod days.

    But yeah, Sammy won’t be keeping the bones patched beyond what they already have. The risk for me is acceptable, and preferable to shelling out for new hardware every few years. It works and I’m not too stupid with it.

    I don’t think I’ve used a microsd in a phone for about 6+ years now, so I couldn’t really care less. Not a photographer and I don’t travel enough to need so much offline media on the go. Just a few albums for the commute.

    Still using an old Galaxy S10 and appreciating the 3.5mm jack though.


  • On Dell server hardware with the right cards/licensing, you can remove the need for physical access to the server to input an FDE password by leaning on iDRAC. This provides access to the console remotely during the boot process (and thereafter).

    Alternatives exist that supposedly do the same thing, but I’ve never had to try them. Airconsole, pikvm, blikvm etc.

    You can keep this interface unexposed by using wireguard to dial in when you’re away, as per your original thinking. Just make sure the endpoint isn’t on the server you’re rebooting…




  • You’re right to question the article, which is thin on facts in a very specific area - which better presents the person it is about. Joe Average would probably see “had some weed” rather than “was involved in a cross-state trafficking operation” by the way it is written.

    The question could have been better presented. If race was removed from the equation, and the US wasn’t deporting masses of people like it is now - then you probably wouldn’t have had such a strong reaction.

    The mod that removed your comment for “misinformation” is following popular opinion rather than fact. “Marijuana-related charge” is vague and can imply anything alongside - including violence.

    Regardless, I think they were wrong to deport. Reasonable people will commit crime when pushed to, which represents a failing of the state more than a failing of the individual.
