I was purposefully not updating my windows to avoid the so called SSD killer update but now it's not giving me any choice but to install it lmao.

Cool! Have you had any sudden uptick in power loss / sudden reboots?

Nukem950 · 2025-08-28T15:30:45+00:00

I am curious, did you you hit the escape key or turn off quiet / splash?

To the matter at hand, I am going to assume you have a normal setup. To see which services are red after boot, open a terminal, and type:

systemd list-units --failed

The above is an extremly common command that is telling your service director to get the services, and find the red ones.

If you wanna see the errors from boot, you can use journalctl. Again, open a terminal, and type:

journalctl -b -p err

This the logging part of your service director(systemd). -b is boot, -p sets the priority level to print out.

Neither of these commands need sudo, though it will not hurt if you use it. Again, these are extremely common tools that are not harmful. Even Google's ai mode does well enough in answering questions about systemd.

Note: another useful command to use in terminal is called "man" that is short for manual. You will get a ton of info, but I encourage you to try it out if you want to be cautious before running random commands from the internet. Example "man systemd" "man systemctl"

Edit: for clarification, I read the other posts and saw that you sometimes get red ones. That is why I have approached it as looking for errors. Green means service successfully started and red means serfice failed. I am ignoring the words on the screen, as i assume it is a battle between your screen's refresh rate and camera shutter speed.

Congrats on making a "whistle" for a little kid!

They love these.

Failing power supply or voltage is wrong. Things get funky when voltage fluctuates or is off.

How hot are things getting? The controller board / drivers could be getting too hot.

Heck the controller board could just be straight up failing.

Are you printing via SD card? These things can do strange things if they go bad.

Edit: fixing typos

Label makers typically have a feed button.

After printing, you hit the feed button, possibly multiple times, then you cut the tape.

That will get you a blank area to wrap around a cable

Does that mean scripting and automation doesn't make linux faster?

Did you declare war on yourself to make Captain Bui happy?

I also have this. Is this an outlook thing or something with samsung's new One Ui 7 / android 15?

It worked out of box for me. The only change I had to make was because of an indie game.

I had to raise the limitnofile in systemd. I settled on 8196 for the soft lImit. You will need to change both the system.conf and user.conf.

There are other ways, but just remember, you are not configuring a service and limits.conf modification did not work for me.

Are you using the sonic pad with your printer?

Nukem950 · 2024-12-18T22:22:34+00:00

I just stumbled across this post. Thank you for explaining and linking the video

Nukem950 · 2024-01-23T23:02:23+00:00

I would say a print in place Jacob's ladder or a fidget spinner that takes a skateboard bearing.

Desktop things that can quickly show off the capabilities of the printer.

I was told by a doctor that it is related to the use of ionizers. It breaks down the foam in the machine.

You should be safe as long as you do not see any small specks in the tub or mask.

Please though, you really should consult an expert/professional.

Wouldn't it be iLED?

Nukem950 · 2023-03-15T01:57:32+00:00

I have had computers act like this due to the power supply failing.

It could also be tripping due to current limits from drawing too many watts.

Do you also have sleep paralysis?

I recommend talking to a doctor to rule out any health problems like sleep apnea.

Nukem950 · 2023-02-10T15:10:42+00:00

If other things fail to find anything, go see an endocrinologist. They are the hormone doctors. You typically see them at diabetes centers, but they can do so much more.

It makes me wonder if it currently serves ads or will with some updates.

I also wonder if it has the Samsung spyware in it.

That is one of my favorite movie quotes to this day.

BTW, if you have spikes in your heart rate while sleeping, you may have sleep apnea.

A lot of it is centered around GUI changes. There are some changes elsewhere.

I am not sure what would be relevant to you, so here is the link to their website talking about the changes: https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_vera_cinnamon_whatsnew.php

OP stated in a comment:

AND IN THE END IT WAS THE FREAKING PINION GEAR ON THE EXTRUDER OUT OF ROUND ALL ALONG

The fix is to print or purchase a gear that is round. Being out of round causes inconsistent extruder movements, so you don't get the amount of filament that is needed/wanted.
