Same I’ve had great luck with pop, it found my brother color laser and even installed my hp latex 260. I’d never print to that directly though.

Username checks out 😁

That’s how my old coworkers would make more coffee at work, same filter, just keep scooping new coffee on top, and run it again 🤢

Lol it’s blank.

Yeah, it makes me hungry

And I literally use my computer to make me $ with Linux development, and IT consulting and game very very little, I’ve also got other PCs.

Edit downvote all you want, I’m just pointing out there’s other ways to use PCs, I’m just slightly annoyed by the stumble, it’s not like I don’t have an entire steam library that plays lol.

Just mad it doesn’t work on Ubuntu steam damnit, download at a hotel in Hawaii to play on the airplane home lmao.

Anyone get it to work??

Not gonna happen, you need a vinyl printer my suggestion is buy a broken one and find the service manual and fix it. My printer is worth about $5000-$8000, I bought it for parts, $1000 and changed the parts out to make mine work 100% check out marketplace and dial that distance up, I rented a uhaul, mines huge.

I really doubt there are smaller vinyl capable printers for $500, but if you find one lemme know and I’ll buy one, I hate doing singles on my giant machine, so I usually give the purchaser a 24/42/60 inch line of them, unless I’m running multiple jobs.

Also hp latex requires a flexi subscription, and my printer doesn’t contour cut, so you need a cutter as well, mine was about $4000, it’s a uscutter titan 3 68 inch.

If you want to do wraps I use vinyl master dsr, it’s excellent also has masking of images and other cool features.

Plus you’ll need adobe or some other editing software.

Honestly, the only reason I purchased the printer is because I sponsor two race cars where I was spending thousands of dollars on decals to a company here in town, I ended up purchasing a printer so that I could print decals for the guy that I sponsor and some of his friends. So far it’s worked out well, but finding people for custom decals is a chore most of the time.

I’m just kind of saying if you’re having a problem with the $500 cost, you’re going to have way bigger problems with the cost of all the software subscriptions to run the printer. Maybe some of the other solvent printers and stuff don’t require flexi and that might be best. I’m not sure. I haven’t used eco solvent or solvent printers since I did my research. Latex printers are amazing. They don’t smell it all and they’re dry immediately.

My prints can be powerwashed and usually do not require any protection at all from sun and rain, race decals I do overwrap for scratches, overwrap laminate vinyl is extremely expensive for good quality rolls and the race drivers are the only ones I do it for, and some don’t even want that for cost savings, a wreck can ruin a whole side of a car.

Rolls of material are expensive and so are inks. But it’s fun and you meet all kinds of interesting people.

Edit oops accidentally cut some text before submitting pasted in edit

Edit 2 forgot to say my printer is an older HP latex 260, also known as the HP Designer 26500. I get aftermarket inks, and print heads , you can buy lots of them on eBay, bought about 12 cartridges of most of the colors I need all genuine but expired, works perfectly for me and I’m not worried about warranty as I service it myself.

When you run into something vocabulary wise you don’t understand, Google is your friend just keep googling and reading to get the gist, Google any error messages too, I’m 43, I’ve been googling my whole life as a big fraud in IT, jk

But seriously Google Google Google has all the answers and as you use it more you hone your search skills to the point where you just scroll past the crap and wham find things right away. The more you search and work with the stuff the better you’ll get way more comfortable. Maybe try and find a local friend who’s good with computers or search that can help you a bit

I’ve helped many friends fix and troubleshoot stuff from time to time, but I’m not anyone’s full time IT, I work on retainer.

I don’t know everything but every day I learn, even stuff I’ll never have to use again.

I do IT consulting Reiners.io , if you want paid help no problem, but it does turn into a huge free time sink, with no reward.

Source: retired 15 year Linux systems engineer and sysadmin, turned consultant at https://reiners.io $60/hr minimum I charge clients much more, including my old boss, who’s at $110/h but I bring my laptop to Hawaii for that guy, so he pays for access to me in 80 hr blocks.

It is freaking expensive and few people will want to do it for free.

Maybe they drank a beer or two once in their lives. /s

Does Linksys still have their velop line? Back when I rented I used to use them as wireless bridges, at the time they were way faster than my Internet was… I believe they handle jussst about gig probably way more now with wifi 6 .

I’d use them to jump network segments around the house, they worked great.

Each floor had a switch wired to it with All devices from that floor.

They’d use a dedicated 5g backhaul ( extra wifi radios ) to link them together exactly like mesh networks work. Or you could plug switches or even just an Xbox into their Ethernet port and the whole network was accessable like it was wired.

I used to use the 3 wifi pack, and id put one on each floor directly above the other on each floor of my 3000 sq foot home at the time.

I’m pretty sure it was expensive, but most mesh systems will work this way, and usually the two radios do not interfere with each other so speeds were good.

I also bought actual wireless bridges, maybe tplink, and they were fine but they’d randomly crash after heavy BitTorrent use back then, velop was always solid for me, but now I use unifi dream machine se, and drill holes so I can get 10gig with my 2 gig fiber

Or even better (cheaper and easier) I’ve also run cat 6 along the outside of the houses I rented with black plenum cable, using the existing coax taca, I’d cut the coax In rooms I didn’t need, I was cable modem, streaming TV only so only needed eth where the modem was and run my Ethernet outside to different parts of the house for about 6 years zero problems, in South Dakota, USA since I my area, cable and satellite guys installed everyone’s homes that way. So I’d use their plate location and just punch it down, and add a faceplate.

I’m a big fan of his how to uninstall McAfee antivirus before he ran for president while hiding in another country.

Like Cruel Intentions 2?

Without a doubt it was amazing and me and my family were extremely sad, but in the end what is there to be mad about with stadia… I was part of something different, I was also a founder and played all the time. I think I owned all the games before I didn’t 😂

Sign me up, I ain’t scarred. Put it on my headstone when I go. Make me a judge!!

You just described my lab.

We’d be held in contempt so bigly, it’d make our heads spin.
