I have 8 samsung monitors of all types in my house and the youngest one is 3 years old now. I've only had 1 failure out of their panels in over 15 years. (Which turned out to be an easy fix.) Anecdotal, yes, but maybe you can enlighten me?

Galaxy phones have fewer glitches and far better customization options than Google Pixels.

What? I ain't trying to praise google here, because fuck 'em, but what on earth are you about with customization and glitches?

I've had the Pixel 5 and 7 pro so far and I've wanted to stomp on those phones way less than any phones I've ever had from samsung.

Their PC monitors are still solid. At least with that you're just getting the screen. The second they add shit I'm out.

Oh, it's got other issues than that, but the crackling is the most unnerving.

Some of the audio from my Jellyfin media player (flatpak) just hasn't been playing. So I check Helvum and sometimes it just doesn't even patch it over. I got the deb of JMP installed and that seems to have made it behave, but the maintainer of JMP hasn't made that easy with all sorts of weird patches and junk.

My only issue with pulse audio was that I had to open Pulse effects each time I restarted my computer because it wouldn't auto load the settings.

Nah, it would just circumvent them.

I thought it was when I switched over to pipewire, but no. I've got severe audio crackling problems now and I want to go back to pulse for all it's faults.

...and now I regret impulse buying the 5.

Yeah, I meant to throw a "not just yachts" in there but my brain don't work right. We all have our passions. At least the guy looks out for the industry through the eyes of a consumer and doesn't behave like a pissbaby.

BUT 30%!!!!!

Yeah, that 30% means I can ditch Windows. At least it's being used for good and not just* yachts.

Kept forgetting to tell you, you will want this for your ams and I use these for dryboxes. You can just grab some totes from the dollar tree or somewhere cheap and throw those in with the filament. Quick and easy way to keep your filament dry.

Here's a hygrometer stand of the same type so you can keep it uniform.

Fill them with this stuff here.

Make sure it's the rechargeable kind so you can just keep redrying it and you'll never run out.

This is all especially important if you plan on printing PETG. PETG is affected much more by moisture than PLA.

If you mean copy/pasting the bar to the new screen/placement, I'm not sure. I've never gotten it to do anything other than create a new empty bar. When you look through the applets though it shows which ones you are already using and what they do so you can just click the + when you're editing you new bar to add the thing you know you'll want there.

Also, try out Cinnamenu, it's better than stock start menu imo.
