It wasn’t so much the quality of the smell, it was the quantity that at issue. Seriously overestimated the airtightness of the “escape” window through which I’m venting. Reworking my setup tomorrow, depending on how heavy the snow gets the morning.

Naturally, snow is involved.

The sooner I get setup, the sooner I can host local folks for fun with glowforge.

I have 2 names ready. One was for a beta if I got one and the other is for mine. Since I’m not sure they can be renamed after they’re setup or if the same name could be used twice I figured I’d prepare with two.
The great thing is that unlike with the kids I have free reign on picking the name from She Who Must Be Obeyed .
I still don’t know what was wrong with Xerxes

Didn’t grab a screenshot, but on the naming page it (currently) states that you may change your unit’s name at any time. Think it said ‘easily.’

Well I wasn’t beta so now have 2 names ready. Maybe I should order a Basic to go with the Pro.

Have had my Pre-release for several weeks now. Named it in the process of getting it set up and have not seen that name on any page since. I’ve even looked for it. It’s certainly not at the top of the user interface. Not going to spend any time thinking of a new name for the production version.
If any of the other users know where to find it, please let me know.

Do you use the name to send it a job remotely? (Like when you’re in a hotel in business and the wife needs a quick cutting board design before you get back.)
It does not show up in the UI during ‘normal use’ but in the trace function it does show up. As you know on the upper right in the past demos we seen was the location of the machine name. But as of right now it has the logged in user’s full name. I think the machine name is more important for users with multiple machines on one account. But who knows.

Way back around the second delay, the boredom and anticipation gave birth to some great topics about mascots and names and other ancillary issues.
Oh yes, that’s true. There is smoke! Sometimes lots.
You can do this. It has to do with the network setup routine. That’s when it happens. You can redo the setup and change the name. And it doesn’t show up most of the time but as @karaelena said. There is a special action that you can do to re-initiate the network but I’m not telling (but it has something to do with my offcentered print button!

Cool! A Swiss army button! 
Hold it down for 10 seconds and get a reset.
Hold it down for 30 seconds and get “Are you sure you want to initiate self destruct sequence without saving your work?”

Hm - @tony might know? I see it at the top, but perhaps that’s because I’m connected to multiple machines.
I was thinking of naming my GF Cheech, and the Filter Chong

What exactly do you plan on feeding it?

according to your code, thats what it says to do - only show if theres more than one.
That matches what I’m seeing. I had to reinstall and now have two “Trogdor” entries in the GFUI — one reads ‘offline’ and the other ‘ready.’
