My wife’s 90 year old grandma was able to pick up Mint with absolutely no issue. Just put the shit she needed on the desktop and that was that.

Unless you’re redlining your systems 24/7, the load really shouldn’t be that bad.

My first gen i7 would still be going strong if the mobo hadn’t started dying. Especially running Linux.

A direct drive extruder is one where the motor that runs the filament sits right above the hotend. Since TPU is squishy, the long tube from a Boden setup gives it too much room to squish.

TPU really needs direct drive extruder to work well. ABS needs an enclosure, but you could just make one from an 8x4 sheet of foam insulation and tape for cheap.

Legally, the platform isn’t liable for what the users do on it. But I wouldn’t want to test that in court.

Yeah, I’d dban the drives and everything.

Look into photogrammetry. You basically take pictures of the object from different angles and use software to spit out a 3D model. It works best if you have the camera at a fixed length from the object, and just rotate the object in place. There are a few apps out there that will do it

I never had dht-11s that worked at all. Maybe one in ten was anywhere close to calibrated correctly. I need to check out the bme280, though.

For the most part I use SHT-35s with esp chips, although I got the Govee sensors with a base station for our reptile enclosures.

We’d need to see the logic of your automation to help on this one. The full graph would be good too.

But, why use an automation as a thermostat instead of a generic thermostat integration?

This is the first I’m hearing about it

I’m disappointed there’s no hidden Sadam

Having an oversized furnace really isn’t a bad thing, and only having it run half the time sounds like a good thing to me.
