I know KDE has a calendar, not sure how well it'd work for your use case but it's there!

Of3+ perhaps?

(Correction: forgot the +)

(Edit: should specify this is aimed at the phones and qr codes system!) That would absolutely ruin the atmosphere for me though, the character of a bar is the bustle and people standing around as well as the chatter you get sometimes.

Removing all that and just having people tap away at their phones while the bar staff silently make drinks, then people walking to a box to grab theirs honestly sounds uninviting.

Nice concept on paper but it'd ruin a bar for me.

Sounds like quite a nice weekend. Best of luck & get well soon to your doggo!

TV's backlight died a couple of days ago and I'm waiting for the replacements to arrive (hopefully tomorrow), might be a bugger to fix but it's worth a shot anyway (only a £20 part and if I can't fix it it's going in the bin and being replaced anyway).

Otherwise, family from abroad are staying nearby this week so we'll be taking them around the area!

I mean you know better than me (I'm not even on twitter so everything i see is just the internet perspective of it). I'll take your word for it as you're probably right!

I wasn't really involved with social media back then sadly, but yes I did get that general impression. Before all the toxicity really overtook it around 2020 it did seem quite pleasant.

Shame really, corporate greed taking something quite nice and milking it so hard it's absolutely ruined. Then again, it gives way to things like bluesky so i guess it has its upsides!

Having never been on twitter myself I'm especially entertained, watching and laughing from a far corner of the internet

Just FYI, you can duplicate an entire google docs/sheets/slides document by going File > Make a Copy, and in your case preserve comments by checking the relevant box!

Fair enough, i guess being that cheap it's like many things - a roulette wheel of quality. Probably one of those things where I haven't used anything else so don't know what's good and what isn't!

Glad i recommended taking my judgement with a pinch of salt.

I'm not massively experienced with 3D printing so take this with a grain of salt.

That said though, I would personally consider what you would be doing in the future: If you're just going to use it occasionally for small projects then it probably isn't worth spending more than about 300€, but if you're likely to use it a lot and eventually start to print more complex / intricate things and/or more often then getting a slightly nicer one would end up being worth it in my opinion!

Personally I have an Anet A8 (about 200€), it's very basic and needs a lot of manual fiddling. Fortunately though, with a bit of tweaking in a slicer, it can produce quite nice prints in a reasonable time which is just fine for me as I only print infrequently and mostly things that don't need to be too precise. There might be something better for that price point but if you're just looking for something cheap that gets the job done then it'd probably serve you well!

 

I've just come from the reddit exodus and I'm looking around for some documentation or info on the privacy & security on infosec.pub and/or lemmy as a platform - how our logins are stored and whether data is accessible by developers / other parties.

Does anyone know where I can find more information on this? (Or if not could you shed some light)

This platform seems incredibly promising and I'm sick of reddit's ways now, but i want to read up before I fully commit. Many thanks!

(Edit - sorry if this isn't an appropriate place for this by the way, just seemed a sensible community to put it in!)
