Has anyone used the #VollaOS on the #Plinius or any Volla device?

If so, what experience is it and would you recommend it.

A wild pinhole-camera appeared, or at least that's what I think it is

Bambu Lab 3D printers: never again.

They're breaking the open source social contract (for the nth time...), and I'm past hoping they'll amend their ways.

Bambu Lab 3D printers: Never again

Meta just removed end-to-end encryption from Instagram.

The #plews enduro gp tyres I'm not sold on.

In a straight line, great grip, but I've never had many problems with fronts so long as you're going fast enough to avoid snowballing.

On the edge though is a different story; Front let's go on its edge all too easily, a bit like an old tyre with torn off sideknobs. Unpredictable. Sudden.

The rear is a little skatey and chunks/tear easily but that could be the firm mousse.

Wished #Michelin never changed the original #enduro medium front

The change to a 52t sprocket from a 51t was barely noticeable but did make getting going from a stop in tech/slick more manageable. Keeps the engine out of the light switch #powerband.

There's no room by the chain guide to fit a bigger sprocket. After trying all sizes from 48t to 52t, I'll keep 52t for woods and 50t for open tracks.

I've managed several hours on the bike, a few being my first race in 5yrs. A 3hr #harescramble organised by #TracknTrail near #Chard. Been there many times before and the course was the easiest it's been in years. Still very lumpy and slick in places but effort by the organisers in making it flowing paid off.

Due to health issues, I had done almost zero exercise in almost 7months. Took things easy and worked my way into it. 3rd in class and 38 overall is far better than a dnf I was expecting.

The joys of gardening... Slugs getting at my tomato plants, again. Seems they like beefeaters and moneymakers.
