People actually used to use a bunch of solenoids to turn typewriters into printers back when printers were very expensive.

I won’t buy an internet connected car, so that rules out EVs unless I convert an old car myself.

Some old tvs and depending on the electrical circuit they are plugged in dont like when high powered devices are running.

It’s not really an issue with high powered devices, it’s an issue with brushed motors that arc and produce loads of RFI.

A web server with directory listing enabled would work fine for that.

Starlink has been much better than every other option where I am, but I will switch to fiber as soon as it gets here.

They’ve been promising fiber here for over a decade, but I can finally see them installing it two miles up the road now. Hopefully it will actually be available sometime soon.

My average latency on Starlink over the past year is 32 ms. It varies throughout the day from around 20 to 40 ms.

If you are getting 90ms on fiber, you are either pinging a server that’s a long ways away or something is very wrong.

Most people don’t need to run everything though a VPN. That just slows everything down. You would normally only use them to access resources on a private LAN such as when working from home or accessing your self hosted services when away from home.

DRM limiting the quality is the main reason I won’t pay for streaming.

You can still compile it from source.

It’s my network. I control what does or does not go through it.

The setting to look for is “IPv6 privacy extensions”. That prevents your IP address from being tied to your MAC address. It should be enabled by default on any modern operating system. It can be set to either permanent or temporary.

IPv6 allows you to have multiple addresses on the same device. You can have a temporary address for all outbound connections and a fixed address for inbound connections.

Is that hotend and nozzle actually able to keep up with the 48mm³/s flow rate needed to print at 600mm/s with 0.2mm layers?

I’ve been thinking about upgrading mine. The stock hotend can only do about 20-25mm³/s at reasonable temperatures.

It didn’t work though. He wasn’t able to actually store any useful data on it.

The check digit is to catch a mistyped number.

Is there a torrent available for it? If so, you would be better off paying for a VPN.

Even with multiple monitors, they are still useful. I use them to separate different tasks so I can switch back and forth with a keyboard shortcut.

You can put each service on a separate subdomain and they will work fine.

I would only rip the ones that you can’t download. To get a decent quality transfer from tape, you will need to connect a time base corrector between the VCR and capture card. Unfortunately, they are rather hard to find now and expensive.

The only real solution is to always keep your source files. PDFs are not intended to be edited.
