Most 3D printers are nothing like traditional paper printers and don’t need drivers, but require a program called a slicer to create the GCode that your 3D printer understands. Then the GCode file is transferred to the printer either via an SDcard or WiFi for printing.

There are several slicers (OrcaSlicer, PrusaSlicer ) that work reliably on linux. Please binge TeachingTech’s YouTube channel to get a better understanding of what 3D printing entails.

Can you just make some symlinks in usr/lib and usr/include? Or am I just not understanding the problem correctly?

Domains have restrictions based on the rules of their registrar, that may be mandated by the government of the associated country.

Some old examples are .gov, .mil, .edu. - I believe that only US Government entities can register with .gov - Not just federal entities but also state and local entities. For example. https://www.sf.gov/ is the San Franscisco City Government site. I’ve also seen things like https://abcab.ca.gov/ that actually use the hierarchy that was originally intended to exist in domain names. Similarly, .mil is for US military organizations.

.edu must be an accredited institution located in the United States, for example https://harvard.edu/.

If you’re in the United Kingdom, you can get a .uk domain, and there appear to be special subdomains with specific use, for example, colleges and universities are .ac.uk, although I don’t know the specific details

.com, .net, .org, .info, .biz are all free-for-alls and no one cares if a commercial entity registers a .org or vice-versa.

Trust any information you find on the internet as much as you trust the author. If you don’t know personally know the author, well, then, how much do you trust random strangers on the street handing you fliers?

Doctors in the US never ever prescribe herbs or supplements. On rare occasions when you have a legitimate vitamin deficiency, verified by blood work, they will prescribe medical grade vitamin tablets, from a pharmacy that has actually tested the vitamin content of the product. Vitamin D deficiency is quite common, and while rare, scurvy (vitamin C deficiency) can happen if someone is malnourished.

My doctor has told me on more that one occasion that herbal supplements are completely unregulated, many don’t contain even a bit of the claimed herb, and sometimes have legitimately harmful plants mixed in, as if someone just gathered a bunch of weeds, dried and ground them up.

but how will i type ‘IDKFA IDDQD IDSPIDSPOP and IDNOCLIP’ on the Deck with no keyboard?!

False. If the flesh covering the skull has decayed there’s a good chance the brain tissue has also decomposed or been eaten by insects.

Also it’s called craniotomy or possibly osteotomy not an “incision”.

Probably never had a Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster or ducked and turned to defeat a Somebody Else’s Problem Field either.

1. There is always some level of distrust of secretive organizations like the NSA/FBI/CIA/
2. Usually it’s the previous gen / obsolete tech filters out of them, because they do want people to protect themselves a bit. I’d almost guarantee they have better / more advanced tools they aren’t sharing.

if by “most” you mean “a scant few applications that can’t tolerate it” then sure. US to Germany pings are currently ~120ms. Not many things that can’t tolerate 500ms outside of gaming.

And there’s your problem. You’re echoing using double quotes which will interpret characters. Don’t do that. That’s a bug. cat or cp the file to the destination; printf if the contents are all in that variable.

Here’s what I’m reading:

startup-script line 27 threw the error.

I’m reading this and interpreting that line 27 of that script is

sudo echo "# FYI quotes(") must be escaped with \ like \"

I am confused why there is no trailing double quote, the last 3 chars should be \"" so perhaps this is a bad assumption but the best I can do with the available information.

So the fix here is to change startup-script line 27 so that you’re not echoing things that might contain characters that might be interpreted by echo or your shell.

Now if startup-script is provided by your distro, there may be a reason that it’s using echo, but I will tell you now whatever dipshit reason they provide they’re fucking wrong because EXHIBIT A: # " fucks the script and rule 0 of linux is “don’t break userspace”.

Everything else allows any printable char after the # in a comment, that script is not special, comments are not to be interpreted by the program. That is a show-stopping bug in startup-script and must be fixed.

EOF

i think the real error was that you started the echo with a double quote and ended with a single quote. had you properly wrapped it with single quotes it would have worked. even if you had escaped the double quote, there still would have been an error because you’d have a multi-line string with no ending " (the 2nd double quote was properly escaped so that would not have terminated your string)

Also, you didn’t escape your slashes.

Either it should have looked like this:

echo '# FYI quotes(") must be escaped with \ like \"'

or this:

echo "# FYI quotes(\") must be escaped with \\ like \\\""

Don’t forget the best place to whistleblow and/or change the system is from within. Privacy minded people can better influence what policies and practices happen at a company when they work there.

I have a nice group of friends who will remain nameless. They are pretty good people.

If only there were a special path like, oh I don’t know, /dev for device handles.
