Your Firefox should be doing this automatically when it detects the system needs more memory. You shouldn’t need to do it manually in almost any case

That’s not really relevant to the question being asked and the answer you’re replying to though. OP said straws should just stop existing because it’s only a convenience, and this counterpoint was that there are people who NEED straws, not as convenience but as necessity.

No the person you replied to but I have the one from https://whambam3d.com/collections/fbs-for-resin and love it

Octoprint can only connect to 1 printer at a time, so if you want to use 2 printers at the same time you need 2 separate instances of octoprint. I use portainer so passing through a device is just a matter of finding the device path on the host machine and plugging its path into the portainer config under the runtime & resources tab. In a docker compose you’d use the devices key, for example

devices:

• /dev/ttyUSB1:/dev/ttyUSB1

You will likely need to create a separate alias for the host USB path though because devices can be found in a different order every reboot so the path will change. The USB device alias will be based on the device vendor and product id so it will be persistent. https://michaelgreenhill.net/persistent-addressing-for-usb-devices-in-linux/ is one site that explains the issue and how to deal with it

Luckily the S in USB stands for serial, so I have 3 printers connected to my server via USB and each one has its own octoprint docker container
