Don’t forget PZEV (Partial Zero-Emissions Vehicle) which isn’t even an EV at all!

Nice! Congrats on the launch!

OH MY GOD I thought I was the only one who noticed that! I still prefer gmaps for most things, but the zoom out after I narrowed into exactly where I wanted is just infuriating UX. If I wanted that broad of a search I’d just… I dunno… go read a food blog.

Where in europe? We ship to all of EU, and just started taking orders manually for UK. Send me an email and I'll see if we can take your order. We're a startup so we really are expanding as quick as possible :)

We did this because we want to guarantee an excellent experience. While the Kickstarter was open to every country, kickstarter backers know to expect long lead times and needing to pay their own import duties. We have agreements with a distributor for all countries in the EU, and are very close to having ones in Canada and the UK.

Postal rates vary by country, and we've experienced more lost packages in some countries than others. Along with 30-45 day shipping times for most international packages.

Having a distributor lets us guarantee inexpensive 2 or 3 day shipping, paperwork free VAT, and easy returns for a much smoother experience overall.

Hope this makes sense!

I suppose you're right... "CUPS Filter" might be a better word than "Driver", but I'm not sure most people would be familiar with that term before reading the full post. It would not be hard to add this script into CUPS as a filter so that it's accessible to all programs. At the end of the day, that's all that a driver is: a filter + a PPD, and the PPD already exists.

Thank you! I went down that rabbit hole, but didn't have as detailed of a guide to follow, and quickly gave up. I might still try this so it can show up as a native printer in CUPS.

Completely agree. I tried scaling down the PDFs but Ghostscript on the Raspberry Pi is far slower than just scaling the 1200px wide PNG to 800px. I still got very readable barcodes, and a 100% delivery rate on my first batch of orders, even with that downsampling.

I could be wrong, but I don't think pixel perfect barcodes are necessary with modern scanners. The only thing going for ZPL is the ability to store the label data as simple ASCII text.

Thank you! I'm sorry to see this project give up, but I completely understand how painful the supply chain is right now

Other PiBox / KubeSail cofounder here. I put in an enormous amout of time into designing around components that can be easily sourced and are stocked regularly. A good example of this is the SL2.1A USB hub we use. The datasheet is in Chinese, but after testing it on several prototypes, we saw great reliability for 1/10th the cost. And its always in stock. Currently Microchip USB hub chips are either out of stock everywhere, or cost $5+, which doesn't make sense for low-cost Pi accessories.

The only issue we still face is sourcing actual Raspberry Pi compute modules. There's very little we have control over there.

We've done a lot of testing it doesn't get close to 15W of power, and also never trips the low voltage warning with the variety of 15W supplies I've used. We are including a 17.5W power supply with all boards to give it a little extra margin, just in case.

Thank you! Other founder here - I fixed the overflow. The infinite across the board is hosting custom domains (something other providers charge an arm and a leg for)

Its possible you hit a bug with our github oauth where we were expecting an email from your github profile and it didn't exist. It should be fixed now if you'd like to try again!

Oops, modified that page last minute and accidentally removed the port. Its fixed now! (try copy / pasting again)

Primarily, its free. DO is excellent, but still charges a minimum of $10/mo (their minimum is a single node with 2gb / 1vcpu) and requires a credit card to get started.

We are aiming for absolute simplicity for beginners who otherwise wouldn't have tried Kubernetes; for example, people who are currently running a few personal projects on a single $5 droplet. Our app gets you set up with one click via github auth, and you should be able to deploy your personal projects on Kube for free now.

My friend and I built a service with the hopes of making Kubernetes more easily available to beginners. Currently we are primarily targeting developers who want to deploy simple web applications.

Two shortcomings that we are aware of and working on: - Persistent storage - Custom domains

Once we get those, we think the service will be incredibly valuable to people wanting to learn Kube or needing to deploy a web app without having to jump through the hoops of setting up a cluster on one of the big cloud providers.
