You have several long and comprehensive answers so please allow me to add an emotional one:

removeding compile error in hour six of what you estimated to be a four hour compile job because of a mistake you made that you found within 5 seconds after the error!!

removeding why doesn’t this compilation start I can’t find my mistake for hours?!

Where does this module come from?! What do you mean “root kit”? Learning was fun!

It all was fun! :)

Is there anything to support this? I couldn’t find anything that really has this intend documented and Intel weren’t the only on pushing for usb as the most simple protocol possible ( I recall a lot of excitement about the “u” part… How naive at least I was back then!).

I’m not knowledgeable enough to really argue against it, looking simply from an Okham point of view as “they wanted everything to connect” - the printer in the same way as that PDA… Plus Intels de facto (IT) world domination at the time it just seems unlikely.

Edit: some sentences didn’t make even less sense, fixed.

Two more things to add: you get downvoted not for the content but for the tone. People tend to not respond well to abuse, even if verbal - and at least I read a “make this removed work for me” in between your lines.

And more important: what you are asking is not easy. Wouldn’t be on windows, wouldn’t be on macos (disclaimer: I’ve never set up the arr stack on either but docker runtimes) . You are diving into server software no matter if you’re the only user or not. Either you accept this and the learning curve ahead of you or you give up on it.

Why do you think that not doing something has more reason than “no one sees the value”?

If you think any of those projects would benefit from it… It’s a pull request away.

When “reasonable” deviates on every major setting then it’s not possible to provide a sane default. Both i3 and hyprland have example configurations - I have yet to see two identical configs in the wild.

You have it the other way around: it is aimed at people for whom there can’t be a sane default because of the highly individual wants.

If you don’t intend to adjust your environment to your workflow that’s fine - there’s KDE and gnome for a reason.

Way lower production value but way shorter and to the point:

Tldr: not really. Even a removeded up nozzle still prints. But if you’re min maxing all parts than the nozzle should be on that list.
