What was your first operating system or Linux Distribution?
  • First operating system I ever used was probably Windows XP, first Linux distro was probably either Ubuntu or Puppy Linux on an old laptop (I remember trying out the Ubuntu web demo back in like 2014.)

  • Do you prefer Reddit or Lemmy?
  • Ive been enjoying Lemmy again after uninstalling reddit after growing tired of seeing nothing but bad news in my feed (probably something I could fix but at the same time I was supposed to have left the site anyways), reddit still has the edge in content but Lemmy is still a good time killer for me.

  • Are persistent notifications not a thing anymore?
  • The current things I have them for is an internet traffic monitor and reminders to do things (usually just one thing in there), the traffic monitor might as well be in the status bar instead but I can't get it there, and I like to have the reminders persistent so I don't accidentally get rid of them and forget about them

  • Calibration test prints all look the same
  • yea, not sure if it was clogged or what, but filament seemed to string from the side of the nozzle, almost like there was a tiny pinhole or something. I also ended up replacing the connector that goes between the hotend and the Bowden tube and also removed a small section of the tube that was in the hot end. Haven't had issues since (I think we tried tuning it the best we could, and the nozzle was just the final step that got rid of the stringing fully)

  • Calibration test prints all look the same
  • I also found that changing the nozzle on my Neptune 2 pretty much solved my stringing issue, although since this printer is only probably a month old that shouldn't be an issue yet, so just throwing it out there. Although there are a lot of variables that affect it too, it probably took me several months off and on to tune my printer (on klipper firmware) with help.

  • How bad is battery life on Linux laptop?
  • With mine (an Acer Aspire A515 I got for free from where my mom works) I get around 3 hours (according to the time remaining, although in longer use sessions at my desk I usually plug it in every hour or 2, and unplug it when its full), which is about the same as Windows thinks it is. So i would say it gets around the same battery life whether I use Windows or Linux
