OctoPrint On Air #5: October 8th, 20:00 CEST (Patreon)

You've decided*: The fifth OctoPrint On Air broadcast will go live on October 8th at 20:00 CEST on YouTube. You can click here to convert this to your own local timezone.

Sadly this time we won't have a G+ event page to RSVP because Google apparently decided to kill this feature now as well - thank you Google. So let's try something new again. I've set up an event list on which you will find all past and future OctoPrint On Air events (the latter as soon as they are scheduled). You can download the appointments into your own calendar application there (if it supports ICS files, most of them should) and set yourself an alarm to not miss it. You will also find a ICS link on the timezone conversion page mentioned above.

Interesting side note: The event list also allows you to add it as a subscription in your calendar application (again via ICS). I'm currently testing if updates and new events will properly show up in something like Google Calendar based on that URL, in a timely manner - they should but I'd like to verify that first before I recommend depending on that feature ;)

For our Q&A section I'd ask you to please ask any question you want to have answered in the comments to this post (so just right below). If you want to ask a question anonymously, please write me a mail to hangout@octoprint.org and include "[Hangout5]" in the subject.

Of course we'll also have a live chat again directly provided on the YouTube event page, but any questions I get beforehand I have a better chance to prepare the answers and possible setup for (e.g. screencasting).

The recording of the event will be made public after the broadcast for everyone.

*: The vote saw 26 responses. The most fitting slots for all of you were October 8th, 20:00 CEST and October 9th, 20:00 CEST, which both saw 14 yay vs 12 nay votes. I threw a coin which chose the October 8th slot.
