Finn is the dominant one by a longshot.
A few positions could be posted on nav.no (government social security firm), but it's not really worth checking.

For language, if you're serious, I'd probably find a Discord channel for people wanting to learn. It's literally how I met the missus.
We all learn differently, but finding someone with a shared hobby that you can talk to while doing said hobby is effective. We had gaming in common.
Talking is, at least for me, a million times better than reading and studying.

Best of luck to you, and let me know if you have any questions.

And: it's not utopia here. We have issues as well. Just make sure you remove any rose tinted glasses before comitting countless hours.

I've been trying to get a hold of Magigoo for TPU, but it's chronically sold out locally.

Have you tested it on smooth PEI, or just textured?

Appreciate the feedback!

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Appreciate the insight mate! Much appreciated!

Tape seems to be a cheap way some of the "older" guys run with, so I have to test it at some point.

Yeah it's tricky, but not impossible. We are small, but not small enough for most jobs to be handed out based on nepotism.

I'd say the main hurdle is language. If you don't speak Norwegian, or another Scandinavian language, the selection of jobs shrinks considerably.

If you actually wish to move, I'd recommend looking for jobs on Finn.no and apply when something relevant pops up.
Being non-socially invested doesn't disqualify you.

Let me know if you're serious and want some help.

Cool, well then I can at least share what I went with that has worked really well: GMKtech N100 NUC from Aliexpress with 16 GB of RAM.

It's hosting Jellyfin with transcoding, PiHole, Home Assistant, Heimdal, a Valheim server and loads of other small LXC's in Proxmox.
I don't think I've ever seen it break a sweat.
The NAS holds the .arr stack and Qbit, but that's it.

I cannot speak to the longevity of it, but I repasted the CPU once I got it and it's chilling below 45 degrees all day long, so I expect it to last for many years. I also enabled C-states to get idle consumption as low as possible, around 7-8W.

Best of luck with whatever setup you end up with mate!

Tips for TPU? (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 1 week ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I just did my very first TPU print after years of printing PLA and PETG, and I've gotta say: That stuff sticks like a mofo on the textured PEI plate..!!
The print turned out great and the default profile in BS needed very little tweaking.
I'm currently using Fiberology MattFlex 40D.

What do you guys use to ease the removal?
I've seen normal glue sticks, IPA and liquid glue made for 3D printing, but I figured it would be cool to ask the fine people here.

If you do use glue: Do you stick with a smooth PEI or maybe something else?

All feedback is appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Finally added some more lights to the P1S. Relay controlled from USB-A port.

Trickier than I thought as the original light seems to be controlled by a NPN transistor which threw me off when using the 0V from the USB-A. Feel free to ask if you want to know how to do this yourself without risking burning your board.

Huge upgrade for very little money.

I've been rocking the original Acer X34 since 2014 and feel like upgrading again. Specifically the AW3423DWF tickles my fancy, but I'm struggling to decide whether or not it is worth it on Mint without HDR support.

I've only been running Linux for about a year and have gotten quite comfortable with Mint, but see that I'd need to change distro if I want to use the Plasma DE, which is the only (?) one with decent HDR support at the moment?

Do any of you run HDR capable monitors in Linux?
If yes: is it worth the purchase even if I stick to SDR mode or would you recommend re-rolling distro to get support today?
If I change it up, I'm looking at Fedora.

Thanks in advance!

I'm tinkering with our ventilation over-pressure function in combination with an inline fan I run when 3D printing or soldering, to get the fumes and particulates out while simultaneously not creating a massive vacuum inside. The plan is to control it with MQTT from HA to a PLC that controls the ventilation via RS-485.

Therefore I'm looking for a simple but clean looking smart plug that I can integrate with HA to let me know when the fan is on (pulling power, actual wattage is irrelevant) to automatically enable this function.

I know Sonoff makes some, but I always prefer personal advice over random search results.
Preferably Zigbee or WiFi (offline) as I don't have any Matter/Z-wave hub/dongle. Compact design and black would be nice, but not a must. Stability and ease of setup matters more than added functionality.

Does anyone have any personal experience to share?
I'm grateful if you do. Thanks!

This is my biggest fear as well.

We in Europe need to focus on our own security and military future without being to dependant on our unstable partner overseas.
He won fair and square, which means that this was not just some fluke. It can and probably will happen again in the future.

If the GOP asks Ukraine to surrender what they have lost, I hope both Zelensky and we as Europe collectively give him a fat middle finger in return.
Russia must lose!

Experience with Autobrr? (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 8 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I’m strugling a bit making it work as intended.
I set it up to push straight to Sonarr/Radarr and it works, but my ratio on everything is still bad. I’m guessing something is taking time, making me lose out on the initial swarm.

My connection is wired Gbit.

It’s not really a problem as I seed forever and have a great ratio, but I still want it to function or at least understand why it doesn’t.

Appreciate any advice!

Does anyone know if it exists and is active?

Looking to join alternative quality trackers and I’m trying to avoid Reddit.

Not asking for invites, just help being there once it opens up.

Preferably with some sort of freeleech rules to get going as I hate the initial hustle, downloading random stuff to build a buffer. My NAS is running 24/7 so seeding is not an issue anyways.

Would also like to hear your experiences and recomendations on trackers. Currently active on TL and very happy with them.

Cheers!

Jellyfin and the .arr suite.

It’s absolutely incredible and I am so greatful to anyone with the skillset and dedication to develop and maintain things like these.

Currently playing with Proxmox and HomeAssistant too.

Hat of to all of you legends involved in FOSS

[-] [email protected] 48 points 11 months ago

We’re quite stupid and easy to influence.

Proof in point: I’ve gone from 0 to 3 Linux machines since joining Lemmy.

Someone send help, please??

Morning Gentlepeople.

As a coffee newbie I am having some small issues while trying to improve my game. I have a Oracle Touch and subscrube to a local monthly coffee delivery, so my beans change weekly.

My issue is that the grind setting is incredibly different from bean to bean. With my last bag, grind 14 gave a perfect 1:2,5 ratio. With a different bean today, I had to discard two cups before learning that grind size 3 gave me the same ratio. 14 gave me 1:3,5 which tasted rubbish.

The problem is that I got channeling and very little crema.

I guess the questions are: do different beans require completely different ratios or am I doing something very wrong?
Should I accept a very high ratio to avoid channeling on certain beans?
Or should my timer be lower on certain beans?

Thanks in advance for any help and have a great cup this morning!

Looking for a Youtuber (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

He makes short videos covering famous songs with both instruments and random items. I'm fairly certain he is bald and usually memes a bit with his sunglasses.

I just can't find me guy and this itch is getting annoying.

Thanks in advance!

[-] [email protected] 44 points 1 year ago

Is there any chance this will ever pass?

I don’t really know what it would take to get this done

[-] [email protected] 56 points 1 year ago

For me it’s been the stability of our sever.

It’s run by a private person on nothing but goodwill and interest, which I was afraid would only last a few months. He (and the other admins) have done an incredible job keeping things running smoothly and with a very level headed approach to content filtering and general rules.

You all deserve a massive round of applause from all of us benefitting with zero work.

[-] [email protected] 43 points 1 year ago

Yeah same.
I only use it to follow r/ukraine, and I don't comment or vote.

Lemmy is not perfect but it scratches my itch to see what random strangers think about random topics so I don't really miss it.

After a decade of being a law abiding citizen and paying customer of every streaming service between here and the moon, I’ve given it all up and come back to the high seas.
It’s all being split up between more and more services with ever growing prices.
If they make it hard to be a customer, I’d rather not be one.

So I grabbed myself a NAS, set up all relevant .ARRs and am torrenting again.
What trackers do you guys with experience recommend?
Are the free ones still good enough or do I need to cry my way into a private one?
The NAS is running 24/7 so I will be a good seeder, so if anybody has an invite to a good private tracker I’d be very happy to contribute to it.

Thank you in advance Gentlepeople!

Hopefully the first major update of many.
