I’ve been using migadu for a few years. They’re a small company based out of Switzerland for their privacy laws. I haven’t had any issues with them. The base plan is cheap and has unlimited mailboxes. Their support is responsive. I’d recommend checking them out

How’d you use rsync with kde connect?

I’m in the same boat. You’ll get better responses if you post your machine specs. I

You made a good choice!

Framework if you have the money. Otherwise Dell.

Every single lenovo product that isn’t a thinkpad is a nightmare to repair. Their keyboards are plastic rivited in place, so you have to swap out the entire top half of the chassis to replace the keyboard. I’ve had unending issues with their ideapad line motherboards. That laptop went through two replacement motherboards and was out of commission for months. The build quality of their all-in-one is terrible and you have to do a complete disassembly to add ram. I say this as someone who had to do small business IT. I have fixed 4 separate models from them and each one had terrible build quality. Also, dont forget about the superfish scandal.

Asus is fine. I and several friends have had many of their laptops. Though one of my friends had the motherboard on his TUF line completely died out of no where.

Dell’s build quality and repairablitity remains solid. Easy to source replacement parts. Good Linux support. I’ve had the fewest problems with their hardware

Also checkout framework if you have the money. Good stuff from them. Really how laptops should be. Each part has it’s own qr code so you can immediately identify it and get a replacement if needed. It’s amazing.

If you’re only doing a VM or two, I’d get rid of proxmox and run truenas directly. It’s gotten better for VMs.

Also make sure you read up on the ecc requirements for truenas if you’re not using ecc ram

Iirc the watches ship from China, international buyers won’t get hit with us terrifs

Which slicer are you using? You can try setting ironing to on and the wall generator to arachne

I’d recommend the sengled ZigBee bulbs. They’re cheap, reliable, and have good colors. Ive been using many for years without issue.

The IKEA bulbs will also work. I’ve tried them in the past, but didn’t like them. I found they were too dim at full brightness. Also, their colors are much much worse then the sengled bulbs, especially the “greens” (I say this in quotes because the best the IKEA bulbs can do is a pitiful color that’s 85% yellow and 15% green).

Oh this looks very useful for organizing datasheets and dev references, will definitely give this a shot. Thanks and nice work!

https://www.squid-cache.org/ Should work too I think

I had to have my scanner scan to a windows VM that saves it to a network drive for paperless to injest. Its not my favorite solution but at least I don’t have to manually move the files around

+1 for tumbleweed. Swapped to it from Ubuntu a few years back and it’s been great. Up-to-date everything, very stable, built in recovery just in case the last update had some regressions. Highly recommend

On the professional front, I can tell you that unifying the keys to mgmt interfaces to critical infrastructure in a single app is not a welcome tool to see on my junior admin desktops

As opposed to having them spread out? Across multiple apps?

I would have my doubts about a junior admin who hasn’t developed a personal strategy to manage this themselves.

What about using a single app to organize their connection methods to various VMs and containers?

It’s an easy way to manage multiple servers/vms remotely. It makes transferring files to remote headless systems easy and simplifies remembering multiple hosts. It’s akin to moba xterm, a similar windows only project

I’ve worked with 3D printers for the last 8 years. The bambus are the most reliable, easiest to use, fastest, and have some of the best print quality I’ve seen.

I wish they were more open but their replacement parts are cheap and the value of everything just working is terrific.

The Dev stated he’s been working on it for 10 years and says its time to move on

There are many USB ZigBee and zwave adapters that work well with home assistant

Seems like nextcloud is the weak link, can you access them another way? Through a network share?

Migadu micro tier is $19/year. Great service and has a great privacy policy. Basically unlimited domains. Ive been very happy with them.
