If I’m not mistake CachyOs comes with Shelly preinstalled now. While it can be a bit flaky with some esoteric aur packages it works fine for most things: pacman, flatpak, aur, even AppImage but I have not tried that.

Nice, I’ve been waiting for this.

Self taught programmer here. If your goal is to contribute code. Get the project’s code, learn how to run it. Go pick an issue, great if it has a first time contributor tag or something. Try to fix it. If someone fixes it before you, now you can compare fixes. Sounds simple? It kind of is, but there are some side quests involved. This processes will force you to learn the bare minimum to get the task done. Your solution will most likely be shit but that’s great, you can only get better. Programming is less about knowing how to do something and more about figuring it out as you go. Google, chatbot/llm, read the docs, ask others. Edit: Forgot something important: Be open to critique, programming is a craft and there is a lot to learn. Being bad at it is a given for most. Also most programmers are kinda bad at communicating so they may sound harsher than they are.

Nice!

Just imagining pulling it out, opening it, typing in a secure password and answering the phone call with mouse.

Well…I did miss that… sorry. But, if the upfront cost matters Prusa is expensive, if the lifetime cost matters its not. That’s just my opinion, feel free to disagree.

Prusa if you can stomach the price, otherwise no clue. I have a Core One + myself. I’m happy with it.
