Find me on Mastodon too.

Wow. A tornado needs to find its way there.
Nowadays? Depends on a whole set of indeterminate variables.
But odds point to tazing. arrest, something on that end of the spectrum.
A Catholic Christmas Eve Vigil (not Midnight - different kind of Mass).
The scene was thus: A strange-to-me Catholic church off of something and Capital in Milwaukee, near where my mom, not a religious person but a nice person, took me and my sis when Christmas happened to fall on our regular visitation weekend one particular year.
The priest spoke on and on, as fathers and Father tend to do. The readings familiar, unre(M)arkable, (L)ukewarm, Psalm verse, same as the first.
The Homily was delivered in the patented priestly monotonic nasally drone, the incense and insensitivity flowing too freely. The easily-employed white, gray-haired, “middle class rich”, Kohl’s-suited, stoic husbands stood, sat, knelt, genuflected, stood, knelt, stood, sat, stood, knelt, genuflected, prayed, sang-chanted, with their wives, who were fully guilt-jeweled for common marital slights, whether real or imagined, or who benefited from rich parents who left their ill-gotten legacies to their ill-raised, now boomer kids who have become reluctantly over-sexed wives. The department store credit cards tucked safely in their expensive clutch purses, these women were fully-prepared to wage full-out Karen-esque, post-Christmas sale consumerist war in the following post-holiday sales season.
Retail workers never stood a chance.
In short: The church was overheated, like hell hot, probably good prep for some of these people, and my not-Catholic mother was next to me trying to morally fix or better herself, or maybe she was trying to impress my sister and I, or, more than likely on reflection, trying to placate my very-Catholic dad and stepmom, but mostly I had been standing for what seemed like FOREVER, and my knees alternately locked and unlocked, and my youth-fitting suit that was too small but too expensive to replace at Kohls just yet sweltered me under imagined and real guilt, and the incense, and the droning, and the HEAT…
I was about 4 seconds from passing out when some stranger approached me and said “Hey, you don’t look OK. Let’s go outside now before you faint.” and I swear it’s the best religious experience I’ve ever had: A human being a human and taking pity on a young kid dealing with physical and emotional distress. I went outside and cooled off in the Midwestern December air. Soon after, my mom and sis came outside and we left in the beater car that smelt like gas if the heater was fully turned on, so we had to leave the freash air selector on and the slider control at no more than 3/4 quarters, but that’s OK because the A/C, which hadn’t functioned in many presidential election cycles, was fully-replaced by the December air, the religious experiment over.
I’m not at all religious but I hope that guy knows just what he did for us that night. We were faking faith, just trying to be good people, and the droning, heat, guilt, and THAT FUCKING CHRISTMAS INCENSE just did us in.
Lesson learned.
Pew or pew not - there is no die.
Backblaze is a great backup solution. They publish drive stats and even show you the hardware they use.

Did your computer lose its bios settings lately? Check to see if it’s set to ahci and not raid if using a single, non-raid disk.

Good luck
Try using 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 as the external DNS in your router for testing. Does it work then?
Also, you may have DNS cached somewhere. You can flush your Windows DNS cache by typing ipconfig /flushdns
in a command prompt.
You can host overseas and use a proxy for hosting. I mostly don’t worry about it though because I don’t do anything illegal.
Use encryption if you are concerned.
I’ve used Hyper-V and in fact moved away from ESXi long ago. VMWare had amazing features but we could not justify the ever-increasing costs. Hyper-V can do just about anything VMWare can do if you know Powershell.
MDT works well for Windows environments. Otherwise dd or Clonezilla for Linux.
Geeks win the day. Well done.
As far as I know, z height affects all layers. Check out https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/original-prusa-i3-mk3s-mk3-how-do-i-print-this-printing-help/rough-top-layer-surface-on-new-prints-after-recent-z-axis-calibration/ and see if that makes any sense.
This has happened to me before - a messed up z height will affect all layers because the squish isn’t there at any layer. You’ll always have that difference in height between the surface being built and the nozzle no matter what layer you’re on.
Not level, Z height. Z height shows as lines spaced too far apart. Could also be under-extruding.
It appears that you need to get the nozzle closer to the print bed. You shouldn’t have gaps between the lines like the rough side. Also, check the slicer settings to make sure it’s doing several top layers/walls.
If it makes you feel better, the very same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. Got it loaded, adjusted flow rate, temps, loaded, and the filament proceeded to crack apart. Multiple places.
Checked date, two years old. Oops.
Here’s a quick method:
Get the IP and set up the dns for the new server. Get a cert via Let’s Encrypt or self sign to get ssl working, and then start your prep.
On the new host create the new directory structure. Note your folders, paths, and permissions. Set the permissions on the pictrs folder as 991 (sudo chown 991:991 /path/to/pictrs/folder even if that user doesn’t exist on your system. It’s for the container.
You’ll need to edit your yml files, docker compose file, and make sure that the paths are updated, the instance name is correct, and federation is disabled (until testing is done).
Copy pictrs and db folders from old host to new. You can skip pictrs if space is a concern, but you’ll lose your instance pics.
Once done, copy over the containers and bring them up.
Check for errors and diagnose as necessary.
Once set, change the federation to on, switch your dns from old server to new, and then perform another sanity test.
I’m in the same situation - started with the same printer, put money and parts into it to get it to be reliable, and now I can just login to Octoprint and send something with 99% of prints just working. I wipe the build plate down, blast it with a few squeezes of canned air, and it just works.
But now these kids and their Bambus and multi-color print abilities…get off my lawn. Seriously, kids, you’re in my light and I’m trying to get this hotend adjusted…
