We actually did start out with an accordion/bellows design, but found that the flexibility of the material alone was more than sufficient to handle the required distance of travel on the actuator piston!

Sorry I’m just now seeing this, and late to the party is just fine 😍 I’m looking at redesigning it this year anyways!

I’m not sure if this is similar to what you meant by an accordion covering, but what we did was design a mold that we 3D printed and poured silicone into to create a seal/cover that will stretch as the piston of the linear actuator slides in and out.

I did as well for my daily driver school laptop and I’ve been loving it so much. I’m considering switching my desktop to Linux as well over the summer, or dual booting at the very least

Oh shoot good point, I’ll do that now!

LOL you are amazing. This was exactly it! I completely forgot I accidentally opened tailscale earlier today and didn’t realize it had an always-on connection enabled for some reason. I never properly configured it after getting this phone. Thank you so much! Glad to know I didn’t break anything with the tiny fall it had

I completely forgot to mention lol I’ve restarted it multiple times and no dice. I have an e-sim, so I doubt that would be the issue, especially since connecting to wifi doesn’t even work. It’s super strange cause it says I’m connected, but then the internet just doesn’t work. It doesn’t even say “connected - no internet” or anything, like it’s fully connected. I don’t believe it’s my carrier cause my partner hasn’t been having issues, and it will usually show an exclamation point on the 5G symbol if that’s the case and restarting often helps with that.

Also adding, my hotspot works just fine. I’m currently connected to it with my laptop.

I never actually got around to playing it myself, but as a kid I loved watching my dad play it on PS1. I still to this day listen to the banger music it has on a regular basis. I had no idea there was an HD Remaster, I’ll have to check that out!!
