Did some research on getting a 3D printer. But decided not to bother as once I've used it to print a few things we wouldn't use it again

Find a local makerspace. Should be a few near you.

Those seem so expensive and time consuming. Not much better than just buying a 3D printer for a month of use and then selling it used or just holding on to it.

maintaining a 3D printer can be a HUGE PITA, for a small number of prints definitely makes it worth paying others to just handle the print, you only pay for a successful print, if you own the printer, and it fails, you loose those funds, etc.

monday morning. counting my blessings.

Server updates.

Trying to figure out what is causing my laptop to completely lock up with Pop_OS 19.10 (did this with Fedora 31 as well).
-
Just finished writing a little saxophone duet that came to mind tonight. I'll try to make time this week to record it and upload to YouTube.

Ubuntu 20.04 - Firefox
By default in the Ubuntu Software store only shows snap version of Firefox but the installed version is is a deb file app.

-ish
It started a over a month ago with Fedora 31, and I was able to narrow it down to likely something in the kernel not playing nice with Intel graphics chips starting with kernel 5.4+ (rather than Firefox causing the problem, which was the first seemingly common denominator in all of this). Because I was itching to give Pop_OS a try, I hopped to it at the start of April. All's been fine until the last week or so. Currently my Pop_OS 19.10 installation is using kernel 5.3.
When I gather some more information, I'll probably make a thread about it here.

This was another reason. After reading about setup and just running the things seemed to much hard work. If I got a hobby that would use it more often I would get one.

Taking Avixa online courses for AV certifications my company now wants everyone to have; seems like that's the new direction.

Denver's library system has several printers that are free to use by any library card holder. Check your local library.

@hobbit666 Our library (if it was open) has a weekly maker space evening. Also ask around maybe someone in you neighborhood has one already. Found out my neighbor got one at Christmas time and he's already printed a couple small projects (namely Raspbery Pi cases) for me

Wishing that I had fewer house projects and financial plans so I could get this and try my usa 4 corners ride again. It's even in my color. -
Discovering a new tool to determine boot-up performance.

Not on the latest? If you go into the app itself, it confirms we are on the latest. And the scan doesn't even get the same version as the app! WTF
