I can't reliably print on my Prusa Mini+ any more and I haven't since they introduced input shaping.

I don't know if that's what the problem is, but I'm ruling out most other possibilities: I've just done a nozzle clean and a cold pull, no avail

@RogerBW @pndc gotcha, thanks. That's my setup atm, I'm looking at SMTP-time crm114 now, probably via SA.

@RogerBW @pndc do you invoke crm114 via SA?

@noodles @pndc I think that's the system that is recommended in @mwl's email book. Likewise I'm squinting at the base level complexity

@ilmari well, I say "working". neither side is complaining, but the graphs for the slaves are blank. Sigh. a rollin' up my sleeves I go!

@pwaring oh! I’m “glad” there’s some progress to the situation, although not sure I’m glad what the outcome is. I’ll read your post now

Happy “two weeks of chaos whilst the world slowly settles into daylight savings time” for those who celebrate

Dann, my 3d printer isn’t working again.

@emily `alias please=sudo`

@ilmari it took longer than I thought but I added a smokeping slave today. Interesting design: master sends Perl to slaves to execute

In the case of SA, I’m not planning on using its actual filter rules, but it’s a method of connecting Exim and crm114. I guess I could swap out crm114 but I’ve been so happy with it. Another tool for this job is https://github.com/jmtd/crm114-spamd/blob/master/crm114-spamd.c. But it’s a lot less battle tested than SA

I’ve been deploying some old tech recently (smokeping, crm114, spamassassin!) and I’m wondering if they’re still the right tools for those jobs or if I’m relying on very out of date expertise

I found some late 90s mail yesterday, including stuff from a close friend of mine who since died of suicide. Ended up being pretty down about it

I just found the email where Telewest announced “Blueyonder”. Also a usenet message between me and the guy who went on to make garry’s mod (talking about Mandrake Linux 7)

@purpleidea what provoked my question was actually email but I use the year scheme for most files as well

@highvoltage I think I’m honoured to have this described as a “Jonathany question” :)

@purpleidea something spanning >1 year is a problem yes. Also non-calendar years (UK tax years, or academic). There’s definitely no bulletproof approach. But one thing I like about starting with calendar year folders is, for most stuff, it’s clear, and also caps off growth

Does anyone subdivide files etc by decade? I usually use by-year, but the lists are getting long. Something like

```
├── 199
│ ├── 1998
│ └── 1999
└── 200
├── 2001
├── 2002
└── 2003


```

I missed the rsyslog ai drama

New blog post: More lava lamps
https://jmtd.net/log/lavalamps/more/
I bought some new bottles for my lava lamp, so I write about the colour combinations I have chosen. With pictures.
