Another nice intro from DroneBotWorkshop.

Another overview from the DroneBotWorkshop channel.

Check that your permissions for the email queue and logging allows the Baikal process to write. Sometimes an upgrade will change permissions. Seems random. I should probably make a script to check for changes and fix. Someday. Baikal is a great project. https://sabre.io/baikal/

Netflix CDN runs 100Gps using 100 watts. Yeah, Crazy. This is an overview of FreeBSD merge events and other development since 2017.

Try the following first. If this doesn't work, it's likely a server issue. Contact the admin.

Older wierd niche 'Creality Ender-3 E', craigslist find. Came with BL Touch, spiffy red bed leveling screws. Not just very little documentation, it's like they wanted to erase it from the internet. <meh>

Notes:

Good stuff. Thanks!

New additions to the sound decor. A significant improvement over the equally vintage Phase Technology originals. Thanks Craigslist!

Rustic prototyping.

Ever wonder what happens when a stoopid forklift operator gets a bit out of sorts. Things break. Here's the last item to repair of our #upcycled storage system. #permatecture #art #studio #build #maker

I am testing #PeerTube and #PixelFed over at https://faf.watch and https://faf.photos. We'll see how it goes. The install and configure is much easier now for both than in 2018 when I last attempted. :) PixelFed is very easy. Peertube is for tech adverturous only, but I can see things changing rapidly. Note: Lock everything down before publishing or allowing registrations. Take your time.

If you run Linux, depending on your preferred distro,you may see 100% CPU usage from the accounts-daemon. It's because the /var/log/wtmp and /var/log/btmp files grow and the service accesses the files regularly. Shrink or remove the files. Removal disable logging. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1316830

Here's how I do it.

It's silly when a useful and powerful thing has no narrative. However, in tech, this is the norm, rather than the exception. Hey! Give us context! It matters. Erlang/OTP is part of https://faf.social nerd plumbing https://pleroma.social.

I like the look given by 2x stretch anamorphic. For short tele shots, here's the 16b focus module from Rapido Technology.
