-- Never limit yourself
Hi, I'm Rapterron!
IT Engineer from Germany. By day, a 7-4 IT guy. By night, the dragon running a homelab and 3D print farm.
I'm all about high-quality, bleeding-edge 3D printing and I'm building a business around it. Commissions anyone? π
Open-source and self-hosted everything are in my DNA. "Never limit yourself" and "Be curious" that's what drives me.
Open-minded, friendly, and yes a nerd. And proud of it.
Cheers, Rapterron!
You know when you know!

Yes, this was actually my agent's idea to give something back to the claw community by @steipete.
Who wants some?
The 3D files will be published on @printablescom soon.
Hey cool, I made something similar, with local QwenTTS and a custom voice.
`https://t.co/M8ItsbRkPZ` and `https://t.co/oGMFwjAMxM`
The first one fires locally and plays back the speech when I am logged in; the second one actually triggers a phone call when I am not present.
I told my agent to call me whenever a task gets stuck and she needs me ASAP.
She calls me every here and then and dropps some hilarious funny texts π€£

Exactly. I gave her access to my homelab with very clear tasks and blueprints, and I let her confirm every task before she does anything. I also have backups and snapshots in case something breaks.
She has her own VM with full access and sits in a DMZ. If she breaks herself, well, snapshot restore and try again. Apart from openclaw update issues and broken versions, I have not had to recover her VM because of AI slop.
Providing SSH access to a fresh system for an AI-assisted deployment is also a pretty low-risk zone at first.
So far, nothing has broken. Of course, a homelab is not a production site, but what works in a test lab can often be adapted to a production environment.
It is a very interesting development.
I use the thing to build things, and I build a lot!
Since I started using @openclaw back in February, I've almost completely automated my homelab. My agent can monitor my Proxmox server cluster and, with my permission, take over administrative tasks. I even rebuilt an entire home Asterisk PBX. No slop as we worked on this in a structured way.
On top of that, I gave her a small GPU, and we built our own local AI stack with Whisper and QwenTTS, enabling her to talk in her voice and listen.
Every morning, she calls me via the Asterisk script she made and gives me an (un)friendly wake-up notice with a summary of the day's to-do list.
She has a very sassy and sarcastic character but gets things done. She asks the right questions and tells me right away when I do stupid things. No LLM would do this by default and question the user, but when you remove the chains, allowing her to have an opinion, something cool happens and you have a real assistant rather than a corporate yes-man.
@Prusa3D Day one XL user here!
Yep, I can confirm this beast is still a top-tier printer, and there is barely anything to improve as it's still way ahead of its time. I love that printer!
I even print TPU materials in multimaterial like it's simple PLA without any issues.
