I have induction and strugle with this even when not overfilling the pan, as the sides don’t get warm compared to the bottom. I have to make really small portions to manage properly, and mixing together in the end like you mentioned.

Never ever had gas as it’s uncommon here, but I’ll take your word for it not fixing it. Any advice to share, or do I just keep doing it in rounds?

Du valgte feil Nordisk land, ellers gratulerer med nytt liv her i nord!
Du får komme en tur opp til oss hvor det er fjell, fjord, laks og folk som snakker forståelig, min venn.

God Jul!

They also made the best plasma TV’s back in the day!

Agree as a native.

Nothing to crazy about what he wants to achieve. The crazy part (and I respect him for dedicating his life to it) is to attempt it in the US of all places.
The amount of bat shit crazy that has been allowed to rear its ugly head since the last election is impossible to wrap my head around.
Super happy Mamdani won NYC. It shows that there are places in the US we can still relate to.

To answer OP: Personally I don’t care where you are from if you integrate and contribute to society. I haven’t met many Americans here, though…

Yeah I can’t argue with that, it’s more that I have no financial gain in this setup, so every redundancy set up costs me directly. At some point I have to say that it’s good enough.

It’s always a trade-off I guess, with cost being the deciding factor.
If I ever build a new house, I’m having a proper rack with room for a redundant server for sure!

Yep, can confirm.
I usually wait for seasons if it’s a show I don’t know when I will have time to watch, just to get it as freeleech.
It’s usually always there when I check after a few days.

Like others have said, I also prefer having a backup and getting new HW when shit hits the fan.
You can build a warm-standby solution, but that road is both costly and more labor intensive.

The family can survive for a few hours while I run out to get a new drive or NUC to fix stuff.
If you’re lucky, it happens right after dinner so you can skip clean-up too!

For Norway it depends, really…

We get the small things (lights, figurines) out with advent starting, so late november/early december, but don’t do the tree until the night before (23rd). The outside lighting we usually do a bit earlier, as it gets super dark here and it looks nice.
Some people do it much earlier.

Special traditions for Norway would probably be porridge with an almond in it. The one who gets the almond wins the marzipan prize.
Our family does it a bit differently: There are many almonds, the total changing every year and only Mum knows, and the one with the most gets to pick from the prize pool first. That way, everybody gets something and the kids are happy.
I finally won last year with 14.
It’s also super fun watching people looking like chipmunks, hiding their almonds until it’s time to count.

No.
All 5 Nordic countries are consistently in the top 10 and are very much capitalistic, albeit with a very strong social safety net and a historic mentality of cooperation.

Capitalism is a functional system as long as it is heavily regulated. As soon as the corporations are allowed to influence politicians and the media not held responsible for presenting a false narrative, the system begins crumbling.

And those saying it’s impossible to get rich in our type of society: The top 10 list of millionaires per capita has three Nordic countries in it, and three of the other countries are tax heavens Switzerland, Singapore and Hong Kong.

Ooof, this is the reason why I religiously watch the first layer and why my daughters ain’t printing without me or the missus around just yet!

I have three servers running these days.
One is a NAS that hosts the .arr suite and my torrent client. This is just to keep the media management in one place.
A N100 NUC that runs a lot of stuff in Proxmox, like Jellyfin, Heimdal, HomeAssistant, PiHole, Tailscale. I hope to add Caddy to this in the future, but I’ve never played with a reverse proxy before so I’m a tiny bit scared hehe.
Lastly is a inudstrial PC I got from work that hosts game servers. Right now it’s down as we haven’t had time to game, but usually it’s either a Minecraft server or Valheim.

For backup I have one copy on the NAS and I upload the most critical data to a cloud service I trust and pay for. This is now Proton.
My dream is finding a tech friend with his/her own NAS so we can set up a encrypted partition on each others NASes for automatic backup. I give you 1 TB, you give me 1 TB, life’s good!

As with most things: it depends…

If you’re in a country where ISP’s freely give out user info, I’d say you should have a VPN.
If you’re on a private tracker, you might not need it, but you never know if the people hunting pirates managed to get in there too.
I don’t use one as our ISP’s mostly throw those letters in the trash and I’m in a private tracker, but your mileage may vary.

To get started, you only need a server (like Jellyfin or Plex) and a torrent client. Then you can automate it with the .arr stack, such as Radarr and Sonarr, race others with autodl-issri/Autobrr, share your media with friends and family with open ports (not recommended) or Tailscale/Netbird…
It gets as advanced as you yourself want it to be.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions, not just about piracy but how to set things up in general.
Good luck, and remember to have fun while doing it. If you don’t, you won’t bother keeping it updated and working in the future.

Webrips. That’s how we get movies and shows today without waiting for physical media being released

Are you streaming to a Chromecast, by any chance? Or a older Galaxy device?
The 4k Chromecast with Google TV does not support AV1, but the 1080p version does. Jellyfin tried Direct Playing AV1 files, which obviously went poorly.

I run the same CPU in my NUC as you do, and all data is on a NAS shared with NFS. It’s been absolutely bulletproof for about a year, so I’m confident you should be able to make this work.

Any other containers running at the same time?
No cooling issues?

Just asking because mine dropped massively in temp when repasted.

I disagree, but not just to disagree.

AMS is still very useful for having hazzle free filament swaps, keeping the filament dry and with the AMS 2 even drying the filament.
If all you do is multimaterial or multicolour, then sure, INDX/Snapmaker/Vortek is amazing for time and cost saving, but most people at home will never ever be able to reach a volume of poop where it makes financial sense to pay the premium.
The Snapmaker is obviously an exception, but it sacrifices both build volume and a heated chamber to achieve the <1k price.

95% of what I do is mono colour, so the ocational toy for the kids with 200g of poop for a 50g part is worth the trade.

People also severely underestimate the WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) for many of us. If my missus has to tinker more than 15 seconds before a print, I recieve the brunt if her frustration. It’s quite probable that all these tool-/hotend-swap systems will require some love as well. RatRig’s IDEX and Prusa XL have had many experienced people giving up.

I think this topic is highly subjective and personally just ordered the H2S. Quick math showed me I needed >75 rolls of pure poop before the H2D would make sense, and H2C will cost even more. I’d rather look at these systems down the line when more quirks have been ironed out.

I really have no clue.
It looks like a cool system, but I also think they might be rushing it to have a reply to the U1.
Will it work well from the get go?
How long does it take to change filament and hotend?
Will mis-alignment stop prints often, as things get worn?

They also cannot possibly price it lower that the H2D, as it is the same printer with more tech.
Prusa has also more or less confirmed to be releasing the INDX-system soon, which seems like a smarter system to me.

If it turns out as polished as Bambu often do and not to expensive (sub 3k), then it will demolish the competition. I’m happy we all get to be a part of the insane development race going on these days.

Also: if Prusa wants to compete, they have to offer a heated chamber and decent camera as standard. I still can’t fathom how they dared to release the Core One without.
I’m willing to pay quite a bit more for European made, but not if it feels like a complete rip-off.

Yeah, I think it’s very clever, but like you say it will be interesting to see how the system fairs outside a lab environment over time.
And even if it does work flawlessly, there is no way they will price it lower than the H2D which is already outside what I consider reasonable for sporadic home use.

If all my dreams come true, the competition heats up and they end up dumping the prices over the board.
Realistically though, I’ll keep an eye on the H2S over the next few months and see if people have issues with it before I give away even more of my hard earned money.

I’m thinking more and more that this is a semi-rushed response to Snapmaker having insane success on KS with their U1, more than a goodwill gesture from BL, tbh.

I also struggle seeing the true point of it, depending on what the price ends up being.
Let’s say it lands at 2500-3000€. The H2S will have higher print speed (lighter gantry), fewer movable parts and a thoroughly tested hot end setup at 1150€ without AMS.
1500€ in poop is going to take most people a lifetime to produce, not considering the advanced Vortek system needing maintenance. That’s like 75 full 1 kg rolls of pure poop if you pay 20€ for each.
It will also require at least two AMS units to function fully, both of which are proprietary and useless the day you buy another branded machine.
If you don’t need a heated chamber or the increased print size, you can get away with the P-series for even less money.

Add the closed ecosystem to the mix, and I can’t really see any viable reason to wait for the H2C at all…
Am I just being dumb here? I’d genuinely like to know

I’ll admit never having used Lidarr, but if it’s dead and no other good automated software exists, I’ll just use the good old “search and click download”-hack.

Hopefully I won’t ever have to do this, but time will tell

Thanks mate, but the only way to fix it would be to have Windows as the prio boot OS, which just hurts too much hehe.

I’d rather sit and wait and choose it manually after updating.
