This takes an images and makes an STL. There are others out there like BackflipAI that does some “intelligent” destermination when converting a flat image to 3D.

Maybe a buffer issue, does scp work?

Could be this https://omnitech.net/reference/2023/03/15/0x8007003b-timeout-copying-large-file-to-samba-server/

Or could be if you copy it via Nautilus GUI, people have suggests doing a straight cp from CLI has better results than Nautilus.

Microsoft being closed source hides their bugs and vulnerabilities. Even when security researchers have sent in reports MS has sat on them due to profit being motive not security, and not taking vulners seriously until the researchers say screw that and publish it.

Linux being open can have all eyes on it, and if there is an exploit, there is a community willing to help ASAP.

On many distros you may have weekly or even daily updates or patches coming through with fixes. A distro like OpenSUSE has various patch and list patch commands that show what security patches are avilailable, their status (critical, recommended) and if it’s needed on your system or not depending on what you have installed. You don’t get transparency on closed source systems.

If you are paranoid about security you can use AppArmor tools or SELinux. AppArmor can be set to learn how an app behaves, then you lock it so the app can’t do new things.

SELinux you set rules for files and folders, so even with remote access an attacker can’t access data if rules don’t allow file listing over SSH etc

You can solve that problem by making an additional efi/boot partition when you install Linux over the Windows install.

You have Linux setup with its own boot partition and the install should probe for a foreign OS, it then adds a chainloader entry in grub to point to the Windows EFI partition.

You set BIOS to boot from Linux EFI partition. When it comes up at boot you can chose Windows and Grub hands over control to the windows bootloader, but Windows is ignorant of Linux EFI existing. It now only messes with its own EFI and never touches the Linux stuff.

Because US feels they are more important than they actually are, and have been trying to claw back an image of being number 1; while they prove each week, by defunding education, health and science, that they have slid backwards from world leadership

This, and then you have USA defunding research and denying science.

Yep a 2TB 2010 NAS drive still holding data, the spin up time is getting a bit slow and some SMART numbers show it is getting older, so moved my data to a new drive to avoid catastrophic failure.

However watch out for bit rot on old drives. I had a few images fail to load because bits had become corrupted.

A ZFS system would alert you or fix these problems

Its why I have a Yubikey, the 2FA can be direct request of the device plugged in, or the OTP codes it generates. Being a separate hardware key means its not tied to my phone ID, or under a company “device wipe permissions” required

I worked on an old CAD program in the early 90s, it had hotkeys for the menu structure. After some time ( and memorization) they became much faster than mouse clicks. When getting designs out as fast as possible, to keep the shop busy, was the mandate it led to designers flying across the keys building geometry, trimming, dimensioning etc. After about 4 years though RSI became a problem for all of use.

It can be clear like the formlabs sample, but its not clear like molded acrylic or acrylic sheet. It has some cloudyiness to it.

You can buy the keychain halves from all express, or epoxy molds.

People are lazy

You can get broadcom to work, it means adding the missing driver.

For example in NixOS its adding a line in the hardware/config file then running a rebuild.

For Ubuntu there appears some steps spelled out lower in this thread https://askubuntu.com/questions/55868/installing-broadcom-wireless-drivers

Some distros publish their known working hardware lists https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Hardware

Let’s hope it takes off

Yeah you might be right. I dont like microcode locked down.

Already burned by 2017 null password vulnerable on IME.

MS and government will use proprietary crap to become more invasive.

RISC is not fully developed yet, people are working on it, but we don’t have mainstream purchasable stuff yet

Microcode that runs the chip: what does it do? Is it back doored? Closed source chip architecture means we can’t develop for it or know the operation

Open source hardware is the bigger issue

Which in an authoritative government they know who to pressure into removing privacy features or forcing backdoor data collection

They do, its just not economical for energy and time, when you are dealing with something generic. Good for broken one offs
