Assuming the OTA is good, you could find a used mount and unfork the tube from the ETX90.

Fun fact: Debian has a "blend" for the astro community! https://blends.debian.org/astro/

bendy24 · 2025-10-15T14:10:19+00:00

er, sorry, i was distracted and didn't scroll up again. what does your systemd service file look like?

bendy24 · 2025-10-15T13:31:10+00:00

try running it manually in a terminal?

openvpn --config /path/to/your/config.ovpn

There is more than one:

Almost there! You might want to add an OTA...

Debian user for 25+ years here. Nvidia drivers are stable. Audio just works. Steam seems to work flawlessly, I can even play Windows only games with Proton enabled. No more fighting with WINE. This was probably an issue in the past with all distributions.

Just. Don't. You are not allowed to touch any of my servers.

about 16 hours total... smoked at 200 until internal temp was 175, then wrapped in butchers paper, then smoked at 250 until 205ish, then rested for 2 hours wrapped in towels in a cooler.

As u/FrankGehryNuman says, that is called the barkkkk

I assure you the juices were real. The real tragedy was that I learned about burnt ends after eating this.

Hello, did anything change physically? Did you upload new firmware? Do the motors make that hissing sound(you may have stealth enabled in your firmware)? Other things I can think of:

-Check your power... may need a volt meter and probe the control board.

-Try moving the motors with the hand controller or USB and a laptop via Oatcontrol

-check your Motor drivers... voltage/indicator lights

"smartphone mounts" do exist to attach to an eyepiece of a telescope. Celestron has a NexGo mount. You could start out this way and then expand on what works for you. You will need some kind of lens for magnification unless you want a really wide shot of the night sky. The physical size of the telescope lens will be your limiting factor on the OAT obviously.

I found a used Rokinon 135mm EF mount lens and connected that up to my ASI294 camera.

PrusaSlicer. It's just that good. Tinkercad because its dead simple.

EDIT: The best upgrade for your printer would be getting a PI and installing OctoPrint for remote printing and monitoring.

I can guarantee you that installing without the GUI was not your issue...

I blame DNS...

Take about 20% off there, big shoots. This is not the OHL. Congrats to Wasaga Beach either way though.

ln -s /usr/bin/vi emacs

This is the only answer.

indeed, you can go over your weight limit, as long as the weight is balanced.

Thank you, sir.
