I'm actually blown away by how good of a 3D Printer you can get for ~$200 now. Huge improvement from just a few years ago.

That's a good example! I have a RG35XX, and definitely fun to see how far gaming tech has come.
I was thinking of something that would be considered futuristic to an average person today. So, maybe something uncommon, with impressive capabilities, but still affordable?
Not sure if many items fit that criteria, but was curious if any!
Many are, but as far as I know, no hosting provider has ever tried something like what was claimed (which is why it made such news).
It seems like many people didn't even verify that portion of ToS was new (checking web archive), or wait for Vultr's response before closing their accounts.
Even after the official response, it feels like people stuck to their original assumptions and felt justified moving services?
Companies, and specifically the people in them, make mistakes. What matters is their reaction. I'm scratching my head to think what Vultr could do better in this case (other than creating a time machine to avoid the initial screw up).
Vultr posted their response to the concerns here - https://www.vultr.com/news/a-note-about-vultrs-terms-of-service/
The portion of the ToS that people were worried about had been in place for years and had nothing to do with server intellectual property. They are removing it to avoid future confusion.
I don't disagree that it was poorly worded, but the amount of people jumping to the worst possible conclusions on this is concerning. What happened to Hanlon's Razor?
Weird! For reference one VM I run on only has 1 GB of memory, and Netdata uses 100-200 MB. Could be something going on with UnRAID though. Definitely some sort of bug I'd think, since normally resource usage should be very low across the board.
That's strange, I've run it fine on some very underpowered hardware. Are you adding a specific monitoring integration with it, or just out of the box settings?
I actually tried something like this, the laptop BIOS didn't have any settings to tweak for A/C power changes. However, it does wake from sleep after plugging in. The issue is, it immediately goes back to sleep (within seconds). Tried quite a few things to try to stop that behavior (e.g. running Power Toys Awake) but had no luck.
So that's when I switched to ESP Keyboard.
Oh yeah I should have specified this is to wake from sleep, not a complete shutdown. So not a complete replacement for WoL.
I was a little surprised as well, but I think it's because the keyboard / mouse I use (and the ESP32) all use Bluetooth LE specifically.
I looked at USB solutions first actually, but then decided to try ESP Home solution since I was already familiar with the system.
I started off on an Ender 3 V2 a few years back. The AnkerMake M5C and Bambu A1 Mini are both down to $199 and can't believe how much faster / more reliable they are for the price.
