- This is a wild concept for a slicer, essentially he didn’t even make a slicer just a crazy pre-process and post prossess to cura slicer, deforming the part until it doesn’t have any overhangs, creating a normal planar slice, then undeforming the output from cura. He also mentions that the rapid moved needed modified as well. I’m assuming this is because they are generally long distances and not short, without breaking these long lines up we would still end up wtih a straight line after deform.

Marp: Markdown Presentation Ecosystem Marp (also known as the Markdown Presentation Ecosystem) provides an intuitive experience for creating beautiful slide decks. You only have to focus on writing your story in a Markdown document. marp.app [1] Intersting markdown presentation tool, Looks very simple. I really like split on --- much better than by h1 or h2. Their theme looks really nice in the screenshots. References: [1]: https://marp.app/#get-started

- How to make an entire clickable without presenting the entire content of the card as the link title. These videos are great, I’ve ran into these types of problems so many times, and definitely did not know about things like isolate to keep the z-index scoped to one element. - isolate - scope z-index inside this element so that it does not leak out. - [.relative [.absolute, inset-0, z-10]] - the inset zero is a modern shorthand for zeroing all sides, top-0, right-0, bottom-0, left-0.

- This is an absolute banger of a review by prime and Dylan Beetle. I love the similar takes with different perspectives, would really like to see them podcast together, but this one way style interview does really well to cover a lot of issues in open source, rug pulls, version pinning, thankless maintainers, what its like to open source from a large company.

Perils of Self-Hosting We speak to Kevin and Patricia from Traefik, discuss Alex's recent ZFS snafu and we wonder if the new Chromecasts can match up to the Nvidia Shield. Self-Hosted · selfhosted.show [1] Interesting takes on Diun here. I agree that I like to be in control of updates and pinning not to latest. both seemed like they weren’t going to run it because they can look up the latest version. Maybe I need to be less aggressive on keeping things up to date and its a me problem. I just got diun setup and hooked into ntfy, and I kinda like the automated checklist of new images that I can review and update. To be a bit more clear, having control over changes coming in from others, even if I dont care to see the changelog, it is nice to roll out an update, have it in your git [2] history, watch it deploy and work like before, if not roll back and read the changelog. For internal applications I’m down for automated releases like argo image updater give you, this thing has already gone through review, launch the damn thing at least to a dev space.

Spring 2025: Self-Hosted Update The one where things plod along. dbushell.com · dbushell.com [1] Davids blogs always have so many links that send me down new rabbit holes. Interesting that his experience with smart home is turning away, I’ve been somewhat interested for awhile, but never fully pulled the trigger on buying things. I really hope tailscale enshitification does not take off, but really for me, I barely use it even as a homelabber. Idk why, but every other homelabber praises it so much and I just dont find myself using it. References: [1]: https://dbushell.com/2025/04/13/self-hosted-update-spring-2025/

Characters Xe Iaso xeiaso.net [1] xeiaso, has the coolest characters on her blog. Definitely something I’d like to replicate.

Diun Receive notifications when a Docker image is updated on a Docker registry crazymax.dev [1] Diun, looks like a very interesting tool to monitor for image updates, it does not make any change, it only makes notifications. This feels like an easy start to getting image updates started with low effort, keep git [2] ops, but requires manual updates. I see this as a tool that would be a great start and pair well with automated image updaters to ensure they are working as expected. References: [1]: https://crazymax.dev/diun/ [2]: /glossary/git/

Keel Kubernetes Operator to automate Helm, DaemonSet, StatefulSet & Deployment updates keel.sh [1] Keel looks interesting, I might give it a try as a simple image updater. I’m unsure if it fits my gitops patterns though. I like to keep everything defined in git [2], I don’t like drift outside of that so Keel might not be the thing I want.

YouTube Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube. youtube.com [1] Damn he makes this easy. I did not know about hx-select. yes there is waste in requesting the entire thing every 5s, but damn that was easy to get life reload. I’ve only done very specific backend endpoints, built pages up from partials, made endpoints for partials. keeping this one in my back pocket. I’m just kind of amazed that he could do this all in html [2] without touching the backend or js, typically things like this require one or the other. Yes js is running, but no other js library I’m aware of lets you do this. References: [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch [2]: /html/
