Entirely of his own creativity and problem solving, my son (4y) correctly positioned drawing chalk as wheel chocks to keep his Cozy Coupe from rolling down the driveway!

Thinnest/tiniest Ethernet cable options
I’m not in a position where I can drill holes through walls, but I have plenty of gaps around the toe boards where I could push a slender Ethernet cable down and tucked in.
My standard Cat6 is too thick.
PowerLine adapters are an option, I’m just hoping for an Ethernet solution first.

Stealing my solar power to grow an egg!
The pigeon stared me down as I got close, then flew away so I could take this picture

I didn’t change my profile on 29 May - how do I figure out what/who it was changed to?

What am I missing? Why don't I have 18.2TB of storage like the calculator says I should?
Pool 1 is using SHR.
According to Synology's calculator, that should mean that Volume 1 has 18.2TB of usable space and 7.3TB reserved, but the storage manager says I only have 15.8TB usable.
I'm fully up to date on software and I'm using a 923+ NAS.
Edit: solved. In case anyone in the future has a similar issue: I pulled the drives from a 415play, which had a 16TB volume limit, so the only solution is to backup everything on the 923+, delete the volume, and then rebuild the volume, which should then have the 923’s volume max size of 108TB.

SnapMaker is making FullSpectrum part of the official branch!
I haven’t touched FullSpectrum yet, but I’ve been watching what others have been doing with it. I think it’s super cool that the SnapMaker team hired this guy on to directly incorporate his work, instead of trying to Sherlock his stuff without giving him credit!

Asus TurboDrive
I have a Linux computer (running PopOS 24.04, if it matters) and an ASUS TurboDrive. Apparently these two devices are not immediately compatible, so: what's the magic juice to make them play nice together?
I have access to a Mac and a Win11 PC if necessary, but I'd like to get this working on Linux.

I have four pieces spread across two plates in Orca, then I transmit the file to the U1, then I click print and the first plate comes out fine.
Now how do I get the second plate to print too?

I’m getting these odd gaps around embedded text (set as “modifier” in the slicer)
The yellow was on tool #2
The black was on tool #4
Is this a hardware issue or a software setting?
