Wash it down with some SQUINCHER

I can’t remember what they are called, but I’ve seen what looks like round pieces of dense rubber with a slit for the pinch weld to sit in.

Tumbleweed my dude.

Smasnug…

Anyone know of any alternatives with similar functionality?

Your best bet is to do some searching around and find a company to do it for you. I work for one of those companies. I play with the real deal laser scanners every day and can confirm that there sure is a reason why a creality handheld scanner costs a couple hundred bucks and a Ziess handheld scanner costs 70k.

I want to hear what this Mr Snrub has to say!

Budget

Still 1500 bucks

Yup. I travel for work and much prefer to pump as much as I want vs a little squidge from a tiny bottle. The thing I think every time though: some asshole is gonna load one of these up with Nair one day and end up on the news.

Same here except I stuck with leap as the newer kernel does not play nice with the suspend function. My little travel laptop has tumbleweed on it no problems. I’m surprised I haven’t seen more suse recommendations because it’s the only one that mostly “just worked” out of the box.

BALLL MASTAZ

Did you try leap before tumbleweed because I still have a few issues I am running on bandaids right now.

I went through quite a few distros to find one that would cooperate with my laptop and opensuse is the one that did it.

Well let’s hope this ticketmaster shit the government is doing has knock on effects

I Dunno man I think this is really one where just not going to bowlero would do the trick. Maybe it’s different because I’m in the midwest, but there are plenty of places way better and cheaper than bowlero and I think the local populous knows. Because the bowlero by me is only ever full if a company is doing an event there. Otherwise the general consensus is “wtf no I don’t want to go to the loud dark bowling alley with 9 dollar drinks and microwave wings”

I agree, and on paper you are correct. But also I have moved to the “it’s the thought that counts” side of things. It seems to be more effective politicking these days to try and ram through something like an abortion EO and use the inevitable opposition (and legal?) pushback to say “see I’m fuckin trying over here” rather than to just stand there idly brandishing “plans” this is something the left needs to learn from the right. See the senate: Chuck Schumer should have started impeachment inquiries into Alito and Thomas yesterday, knowing full well they aren’t actually going anywhere. It puts the issue in front of people.

I went through Ubuntu, Nobara, manjaro, mint, pop, Ubuntu again, and landed on open suse. I have no exotic hardware. My biggest issue was the pc going into hibernate and then never coming back. The secondary issue was getting certain games on steam to work and an Xbox controller. I seem to have all of that licked with suse and some tinkering. The battle I’m having now is when the pc goes to sleep/hibernate/whatever sometimes it completely forgets it’s monitor settings and I have to turn the second monitor back on and then change them from 200% back to 100%. Which I thought I had solved by messing with the monitors.config file but I guess not…

Asus rog m16 laptop if that helps any.

I’ve had very bad luck trying to ditch windows. I’ve been through 6 or 7 different distros trying to find one that works properly with my pc. Somehow I’ve landed on open suse? That one seems to be cooperating, for the most part, for now. This whole experience has really showed me that Linux doesn’t “just work” for normal people though, and anyone who is adamant about that doesn’t understand the general populations capabilities.

Well I can’t get an iso off of their own website to work so… Cool?
