First operating system I ever used was probably Windows XP, first Linux distro was probably either Ubuntu or Puppy Linux on an old laptop (I remember trying out the Ubuntu web demo back in like 2014.)

Ive been enjoying Lemmy again after uninstalling reddit after growing tired of seeing nothing but bad news in my feed (probably something I could fix but at the same time I was supposed to have left the site anyways), reddit still has the edge in content but Lemmy is still a good time killer for me.

Last I checked my desktop was probably on for like 5 or 6 days, I'll have to check it tommorow, but I've gotten over a month before having to reboot for updates, also I usually just put my system to sleep when I go to bed(was trying to get around slow HDD boot times, I now have NVME but haven't broken the habit, plus nvidia drivers are being buggy and my viewport settings keep getting g reset upon reboot, plus I like to resume where I left off)

The current things I have them for is an internet traffic monitor and reminders to do things (usually just one thing in there), the traffic monitor might as well be in the status bar instead but I can't get it there, and I like to have the reminders persistent so I don't accidentally get rid of them and forget about them

yea, not sure if it was clogged or what, but filament seemed to string from the side of the nozzle, almost like there was a tiny pinhole or something. I also ended up replacing the connector that goes between the hotend and the Bowden tube and also removed a small section of the tube that was in the hot end. Haven't had issues since (I think we tried tuning it the best we could, and the nozzle was just the final step that got rid of the stringing fully)

I also found that changing the nozzle on my Neptune 2 pretty much solved my stringing issue, although since this printer is only probably a month old that shouldn't be an issue yet, so just throwing it out there. Although there are a lot of variables that affect it too, it probably took me several months off and on to tune my printer (on klipper firmware) with help.

there is no meme, just probably an advertisement bot

I usually just use mine like a scanner, although I have a 2nd one hooked up to my server to do ADS-B (locations of planes in my area) feeding to a few sites like adsb.fi and flightradar24 as well.

With mine (an Acer Aspire A515 I got for free from where my mom works) I get around 3 hours (according to the time remaining, although in longer use sessions at my desk I usually plug it in every hour or 2, and unplug it when its full), which is about the same as Windows thinks it is. So i would say it gets around the same battery life whether I use Windows or Linux

Funny enough, my first NOAA image was using a log periodic TV antenna up on our tower, not at all meant for it but I don't think it did too badly, still need to try it out using a dipole and see how that does, but I've been forgetting to do it and today isn't that great weather wise. Here's an image from back in late April from NOAA-18 (iirc) NOAA-18 image
