Starship 12 recap: flight 12, with Super Heavy booster 19 and Ship 39, was launched on May 22 at 2230:20 UTC. It was the first version 3 Starship, with Raptor 3 engines. [1/n]

HP bought Hyperspace, & once offered 3 different pre-boot or in-boot OSs, including Quickweb via @lproven https://lobste.rs/s/ip7rdd #historical #retrocomputing

Our makerspace needs new 3D-printers. I was originaly set for #bambulab but with the apparent non respect for #GPL

Which 3D-printer should I look into? Is there any printer that does not require too much tinkering?

Budget, 600 USD/EUR
Should work with Linux, and also stuff like repetier.

Just had a well-timed "here we go" while pulling away from a roundabout, while listening to Get Boy Hey Girl by the Chemical Brothers. Satisfying.

systemd is so laughably bloated that it's almost a parody at this point.

(AP) — NATO allies and defense officials expressed bewilderment on Friday at U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement that he would send 5,000 U.S. troops to Poland just weeks after he ordered the same number of forces pulled out of Europe. https://apnews.com/article/nato-trump-troops-europe-poland-confusion-5ee39c29238cdee76c1780233cb6fddc

My teen has a #Framework laptop, which he takes to school every day. Last week, the screen broke (from being stepped on). He went online, ordered a replacement display kit. It arrived yesterday. He sat down with the video instructions to swap out the screen. And... done!

OK, I need some gentle help. Boosts welcome.

I am totally new to the idea of WLED, but have a reasonable amount of comfort with Home Assistant.

I would like to have LED strips in my workspace that I can turn on while filming. I want to be able to set the colors in Home Assistant. I enjoy soldering as a relaxing exercise, and can probably flash firmware, but coding drivers from scratch is not currently in my bag of tricks.

What options do I have for something customizable here?

EDIT: to clarify, I'm looking for LED strips that work with Home Assistant, and ideally let me set the colors. Please forgive me if WLED doesn't make sense to mention, I am not experienced in this hardware.

Well, I haven't used Google Search since so long that I don't remember how it could be.

https://noai.duckduckgo.com/ is the less bad thing nowadays for me

But more and more I use Mastodon Search : ask humans, get cool human answers 😎
