Since I once had the case where junk on the line (from a wiggly connection) caused Magic Sysrq requests I'm fully on your side. No junk tolerated for potential hot plug connections.

you can always try the plastic bag + vacuum cleaner trick - take a thin flexible rope, tie it to a small plastic bag, stuff the small plastic bag into the conduit, use a vacuum cleaner at the other end to suck the plastic bag & rope through.

That's absolutely great! Worked like a charm two days ago and everybody cheered and laughed who saw it :-D

ImgurViewer from fdroid on an FP5 opened it blurry after around 5s and 5s later it was rendered completely.

Pan&zoom works instantly with a blurry preview and then takes another 5-10s to render completely.

I'm a bit surprised that nobody mentioned prusa as a replacement?

FMU that's where Bambu originally copied from!?

My short dive into 3d printers stopped once I was highlighted to the micro plastics pollution they create in the air, but still I would've gone for a prusa, already because all parts are free soft- and hardware.

Or is there anything else I'm missing?

The answer is: dedicated CPU instructions for SHA256 vs. software implementation of SHA512. For amd64 there's SHA-NI, for Arm there's the crypto extensions, but both only provide sha256 (at least when I last looked at their specs)

Absolutely this. Less microplastic FTW.

For lasagna we cook the ragu etc for multiple times eating, then we prepare the glass boxes as if they went to the oven, but put them to the freezer. Finishing this is basically: put the box from the freezer to the oven, then turn on the oven and bake for ~75minutes instead of the usual 60.

IKEA and DM (in Germany) have also nice glass boxes which are not as expensive as the Pyrex ones, but especially the cover of the Pyrex are better IMO.

Sure, if you have money you can go with a reputable brand like Bosch & Siemens

Just FTR they're exactly the same -- "BSH Hausgeräte GmbH" -- with just a different label on it. ... And I didn't have a single good experience in the last years, IMO they're designed for planned obsolescence.

E.g. my premium Bosch Hand mixer broke after 2.5 years. Afterwards I bought a >35 years old used RG28e for half the price and it's still going stronger than the Bosch ever was, 5 years later.

if you have even more money you can go with Miele

If you buy cheap (or uninformed) you most likely buy at least twice.

Their media hosting platform is used by many conferences. That's a video of a non-CCC conference, called asg, earlier in 2023, not to be confused with the recently held congress or other CCC headlined events.

Sorry to hear that! I have a pretty low sample size of ~8 friends on FP3 and I can't remember hearing of a single hardware failure. Some batteries got replaced and some are even still going strong on their first battery. I've updated mine from 3 to 3+ and I'm on my second battery since this summer, I.e. the main board is ~4years old. A friend had some minor issues in the beginning with some internal connector but I can't remember him mentioning it again.

Another friend got rid of her FP2 this spring in favor of a FP4, but only because some apps she uses got really unusable. Otherwise she would've stayed.

IMO it's a fairly good platform and I'm looking forward to how it evolves in the future. Hopefully they will introduce a smaller phone at one point.
