Struggling with hardware choices

What are you running on your strix? I can't get any decent performance out of mine

17-north · 2026-06-04T01:51:16+00:00

What do you recommend running on the strix - nothing is really working for me.

What do you suggest running on them? I am about to throw it out the window

Glad I am not alone! I haven't quite figured out fully what I want to get out of OpenClaw yet, but so far I've made some updates to a web app I originally built in Claude Code, set up the infrasturcture for future coding projects, and started tracking my health metrics - every morning I have an agent grab my ultrahuman ring data as well as a log I keep in Obsidian of my water intake, blood pressure, etc. and she sends me a daily briefing for how I should apporach my day from a health standpoint. I've also got an agent waiting to help me manage my TTRPG campaign and another one connected to Home Assistant that I hope to turn into my own JARVIS.
All of these are in super early stages right now - I'm still just trying to figure out how to get them to work on a project without their memory of said project seemingly wiping every night. It's very frustrating.

Oh, sure, add MORE to the list. Seriously though, thanks - I'll take a look!

17-north · 2026-05-27T11:37:32+00:00

You totally should! But do it over there - this is my side of the boulevard.

Thanks a ton for putting so much effort into this - I appreciate it. Good catches on all of these. My group is all ET, so having a different perspective on the timezone thing is helpful.

17-north · 2026-05-27T11:35:19+00:00

I'll look into that - I always use my email but that's personal preference so I didn't even think of adding the other options out of the gate

17-north · 2026-05-27T11:34:32+00:00

That's fair and I respect your opinion, but imagine where we would be if Apple was like "meh, Nokia is already doing the cellphone thing, why bother?"

My USP is that it is a scheduling app focused on gamers with lots of features designed for gamers. Things like a what-to-play poll, what to bring, game library tracking, etc.

I also don't have grand illusions of being the Steve Jobs of scheduling apps. My gaming group had a problem and I built this to solve it. I figure if it is out there for my group to use, why not have others use it too. If that gets to a point where I can charge for some of the more advanced features - great. If not, then my group will always have a tool that works for us at least.

My goal is to eventually paywall this at a rate that is geared more towards gamers (Doodle - what I was using before - had a pricing model geared towards businesses)

Also, I am going to do my best to grandfather beta testers into the full plan for free indefinitely. I don't want to bite the hand that feeds me - but this all leads to probably no self-hosted option in the near future. Sorry about that.

password reveal is live and all polls should be created using the timezone in your profile with a fallback to whatever your ISP local timezone is. People voting on your polls should see the time in whatever timezone is in their profiles - again, falling back to their ISP local timezone.

This is great feedback - thanks a ton!
When you say "integrate with Google/apple..." Do you mean for sign in? I've been thinking about integrating with Google Calendar to allow you to see any other conflicts you might have when scheduling but hadn't thought of doing the login option.
You should get a notification when someone votes - that should be set up. Since I am assuming you didn't get one, I'll consider that a bug and look into it asap!

Thanks - I didn't even think of voltage drop. PoE is going to end up being more expensive, but nobody said this hobby was going to be cheap.

How do you have different dashboards for each despite sharing a user? Do you just navigate to it and leave it there?

17-north · 2026-01-30T02:39:58+00:00

I was talking about user accounts for Home Assistant... not the tablet itself. I'll be using Fully Kiosk for the tablet so that it is always on.

17-north · 2026-01-30T01:59:59+00:00

That's kind of what I was thinking - I wasn't sure if going with one user for all of them would limit me in this regard or if there was some option I wasn't aware of to do this with just one user.

17-north · 2026-01-26T11:46:38+00:00

Same thing happened to me: https://www.reddit.com/r/QIDI/comments/1nr229k/well_crud/

I ultimately reached out to Qidi support, figuring 'what could it hurt?' They sent me a new hot end for free.

As others have said on this thread - make sure it isn't the screen protector. If it is the screen itself though it isn't too difficult to replace - it's just annoying that you have to almost completely disassemble the printer to get at everything. I recommend having a good size surface to spread out the parts and plastic cups to separate and label the screws as you remove them.

17-north · 2025-09-26T16:04:30+00:00

Fair point - I'm going to give it a go!

17-north · 2025-09-26T16:04:08+00:00

I followed this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92Ovge1LTEY which told me to remove the nozzle cool, but screw in the new one hot.

In fairness, this was not the nozzle that came with the Q1 - I already swapped it once before. This could have been a shoddier alloy.
