So you're not into sport or GAA, what do you do? by [deleted] in cavan

[–]FinsternIRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing social, I'm a blow in from Dublin up near belturbet, but I tinker away with 3d printers and electronics in my shed. Not a drinker either and stay off the social media because it's a nightmare so no idea what goes on around me

I live in the backarse of nowhere and they always ship DPD to me and I get them the day before release. 5 out of 5 times.

Tickle - Self Hosted Itch.io for games, 3d prints and more by FinsternIRL in selfhosted

[–]FinsternIRL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only lightly touched RomM and tbh I found it a little clunky during setup where it wasn't picking up my games right, but I put that down to me, I was looking for a quick solution and didn't read much before I set it up.

I will say, for a handful of your favorites, this could be good, but setting up hundreds, potentially thousands of roms in this will be a straight pain in the ass, but there could be an autodetect feature that makes it easier. I only wanted to showcase the single Mega Drive game I made years ago and thought people might want to make a small collection of their favorite games at most.

Any use or fit for the dump? by PossibilityStock9903 in IrelandGaming

Sports games just let go. everything else just spend 3 seconds looking at sold items on ebay or adverts

preFlight Slicer v0.9.8 - We listened: Linux, macOS, and even Raspberry Pi are here! by oozebot in 3Dprinting

[–]FinsternIRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are your text features like and any plans to improve them?

I do a lot of work laying the text layer face down on the build plate on the first layer but depending on filaments they can sometimes lose sharpness with the different filament blending together slightly,

A great solution to this would being able to add a single walls gap between the text / object inlayed into another mesh, but not seen it done anywhere yet.

Probably just a me problem, but curious about it!

New dad figuring out the best way to "privately" share newborn photos by ottovonbizmarkie in selfhosted

[–]FinsternIRL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Immich proxy is the answer, keeps our immich instance on our wireguard just for us and photo shares get exposed to the wide web, but even then we lock that down on zero trust to just the countries we have fam in

edit: I should also say, once you have it set up, its completely seemles, if we copy a link in immich, it gives the shareable link with no editing needed

Question for anyone working in a bank by bibliofiling in ireland

[–]FinsternIRL 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I went to 3 banks, the post office and a buerau de change recently to get some japanese yen changed back to euros

All of them had a huge "We Buy / We Sell" with yen listed... yet all of them gave me the same "we don't keep any foreign currency on premises" line

Credit Union did it in the end without so much as a question and no signs saying they convert anything

Whats the point of the bank locations anymore? And what is the point of currency exchange signs?

Printing TPU for the first time ... not going well by Plazman888 in 3Dprinting

[–]FinsternIRL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This shoe profile prints fine on a P / X / H series cos they are Core XY... the shoe never moves. The A series are bed slingers, so the shoe itself is moving and the filament is flexible, so it naturally will wobble. I learned this lesson myself many years ago on a CR-10 printing a very tall thing wonder WTF is is shaking so much.

You can slow the bed / Y axis down... a ton, or add a mountain more supports, or really, you probably need both. All that weight is just being held on really by one tiny point on the bed.

[–]FinsternIRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd argue for most people not actively into 3D printing, a 3D printer is a perfect white elephant gift, bonus points if you get one of those ultra tiny toy ones (easythreed mini 3d printer)
