Ground News as a Concept I've always found Great! In Execution it has always been subpar tho, especially in regards to European Coverage. Understandable given that its American based and thusly Caters to Americans first and foremost.

Then there is also their Annoying and hidden use of AI. Those Bullet Point that give a quick run down of a Story? AI, even if they seemingly intentionally don't mention it. Issues and Obvious errors are Abundant there, making Ground News for Quick look ups of storys Simply Unreliable and Untrustworthy. In general thier AI Coverage seems to be quite Biased to Positivity, though at this point I may just be Gaslighting myself on that...

So what European Alternative are there to Ground News, if any at all?

I'm working on a Project that Prominently Features a Red PETG Top Surface that after the Printing is done gets Sanded with Grits from 400-2000 +Heat Treatment.

There is a Big Issue tho, After the Sanding is done, I can Rather Prominently see the Walls and Infill of the Layers Below. At first I suspected that I just sanded too much and that the internals weren't really filled in 100% as they should, but after some testing and Closer Inspection, it just seems the Red PETG is just Transparent enough that I can see the layer below...

So how do I stop this from Happening? Thus Far I played around with Fan Speeds, Nozzle Temps (±10°C), Layer Hight and Ironing all Solid Layers with Mixed Success, non Satisfactory enough however...

So I've been Looking into getting myself a Prusa for a while now, Namely as a Backup for my Lemony ol P1S. One of the Issues thats been particularly bad on that Machine are VFAs, so thats something I Largly wanna Mitigate with my Next Machine...

So how are your Folks Prusa MK4S's, Core One's and Core One L's doing when it comes to VFAs? I remember when the Core One Launched that it was a Major Issue, was it ever Improved upon?

I've been wanting to Curb my Doom Scrolling Habits as of Recent as I've been wasting waaaay to much time opening the Same Apps 5 Times in 10 Minutes.

One Method thats been Said to Work wonders in that Regard is to have Apps only be accessible after typing in a Password. After doing a bit of Light research it seems I'll need an App for this as I don't wanna deal with Samsungs "Safe Folder" needing a Samsung Account stuff.

Do any of you have Suggestions for Trust Worthy Apps for this?

Thinking of Repairable, Potentially Upgradable and Customizable Laptops that can run Linux Easily, or Laptops that atleast show one of these Traits!
