Free dns hosted elsewhere means they can see your every query and every site you visit. So you’ll be paying with your information. You could just set the DNS in your PC to the local IP of your Pi-hole. That way you won’t need to replace your router. It’ll only work for that single PC though.

I’ve found an instance of Sysadmin ! here, with around 6k members (at time of writing)

Thanks for the transparency and the update! Downtime to me is useful, it prevents me from using Lemmy too much.

I’m guessing Factorio.

That’s gotta be Skyrim.

Team Fortress 2?

Nice one, that’s a treasure trove of information!

So I’ve essentially started printing on a higher difficulty? Guess I’ll switch to PLA when the PETG runs out and change profiles in the slicer to PLA

Oh thanks for pointing out the bed springs! That does sound like something that can be happening, since they seem to slowly ‘unwind’ causing the bed to lower. I’ll add some washers; thanks for the tip!

Not for each new roll of filament, but I am relatively new (less than 1 month) and with the same roll I have some prints failing. Mostly because they detatch from the bed (Material is PETG, on an Ender 3 Max Neo). I’ve tried a lot of things already:

• Different nozzle temps
• Z axis offset calibration
• Cleaning the print-bed
• Leveling the print-bed (including the screws and the A4 paper trick)
• Heated bed vs. non-heated
• Printer placed in an enclosure to prevent drafts

So far it seems to go alright, but I still get detatching prints occasionally, or deforming mid-print. It’s kind of frustrating :(

Thanks, so far Lemmy is looking like an interesting place with good vibes all round!
