Not medically trained or experiencing any illnesses, but keep this in mind:

In just a few years, the medical world made huge steps in treating a lot of things using RNA techniques.

Don't compare a situation 10 or 20 years ago with the possibilities today.

Ender. Happened back in the days with a 3v2, the stepper drivers on the original mainboard overheat, causing it to 'miss' steps.

Replaced the MB with an improved version, tuned the vRef and never had any issues again.

You might look into tuning the vRef for your machine.

Inclusive tax, but exclusive service fee, handling fee, network fee, administrative fee, etc. You get the picture.

We are getting screwed by the energy companies and the infrastructure companies. Everyone wants a piece of the pie.

At least (some of us) are getting money back, when your solar production exceeds your consumption. But that is going to change soon.

Dynamic pricing contract. Planning when to charge the car, running dishwasher etc is small effort.

Adding 5KW solar panels and a change of contract, from >€500 to something like €75. Family of 4, pretty heavy usage.

Vic-20, Atari 600 XL, zx-81.

In that order

Asked several to write a c implementation of some basic networking stuff.

ChatGPT: needed to refine my input, got reasonable output. Complete answers, just compile and run.

Google: the output was just a few snippets, nothing to be used as-is.

MSFT: terrible output, and -no suprise here- the compiled code crashed with null pointer references etc. The worst answers ever.

For simple problems (programming low-level microcontrollers), my go to will be ChatGPT everytime.

Google should get it's act together, Microsoft can exit the stage.

Yes this.

Check out the don't vacuum me site and pick a 'hackable' robot. Add Valetudo and you're set.

Using a Roborock S6 here, started by home assistant when no one is home.

For the occasional jobs/accidents, we use a Hyundai cordless. Really robust, easy to clean and properly designed.

What do you think, an epub file is?

maybe just search for some content?

That's my understanding.

And I think a small fee to get out of the googlyclaws. Paying $100 once, to host immich for the family and supporting development is a no brainer to me.

But I understand not everyone has the resources or is willing to donate.

This is just the beginning...

Cars.

• mechanical, no software bugs
• physical buttons, no touch screen
• everything just worked, no need to license the heating of your chair
• freaking lane assist

You get it..

Thanks for this. Finamp looks really nice.

Gravis gamepad :-)

Rock solid!

Gravis Ultrasound with red pcb reporting..

That is not how it is supposed to look, the end result should be at least a couple of inches wide.

Maybe you don't need to 'fix' your retraction settings?

If it looks good enough, why bother?

Wasn't aware of the test (SuperSlicer user here), and found this.

The tower has multiple notches, each one corresponding to a different retraction length. By looking at the tower after printing, you can see how each retraction length affects the print quality.

So check your surface finish and select the retraction value with the best looks.

Esp32Cam with esphome running a webserver, add frigate in the mix and you can have dozens of cameras for just a few bucks.

Completely open source (apart from the espressif wifi radio stack, but who's counting) and low cost.

Yes, quality of the camera will never compete with commercial stuff, but this is way more fun. Add as much cameras as your frigate instance allows..

Perhaps this is an alternative?

Gonna recommend this to all my co workers.

It is not vulnerable to Windows viruses.

Correct link

Blowtorch will heat this up way too hot.

Try to get it to a high enough temperature to insert filament to do a cold pull and repeat..

Electrical heat gun (paint stripper) is hot enough. Gas based torches will change the stiffness of your material and you will regret it.

Shiver me timbers!

Thanks for the heads-up buccaneer!

Yes, physically getting bigger.

Dell XPS had a batch laptops going crazy and pushing the touchpad up.

You will recognize it :-)

This.

Using a CEC link will make things even more simple, but that might involve additional hardware. Those raspberry thingies have native CEC on hdmi. For x86 you might have to look at some extra hardware.

And of course, Kodi is an example of a 10 foot interface.

Bluetooth or wifi, depending on the number of accesspoints..

Anyway, a really smart hack!

Sony SRS-RA8000 owner here. Can confirm it works with the plugin mentioned above.

Using Harman Kardon hardware yields in a way less happy experience.

NetApp makes storage devices, just like Dell's DataDomain.

Looks like the ad is referring to a ST6000NM0034, a drive from Seagate. Personally, I like to stay away from that brand as far as possible.

Have had good experiences with WD.

Weighted blanket.

Check the links on that page.

Thanks for the pointer.

This is really huge, but people don't quite understand that yet.

If this wasn't caught, every system -running public sshd- could be hacked or abused/misused.

And I completely agree with the last words, corporate should pay foss projects!

Vlans firewall rules and something to route between the different networks.

This can all be achieved with pretty much every Linux installation.

Ok, this is really over the topz but I like it. Wouldn't be too hard, to open the gate when the mower engages.

Clever and nice touch of adding the drain.

First check the dontvacuum.me site for compatibility.

Flash with modified firmware, run valetudo and disconnect from the Chinese cloud.

Valetudo integrates with HA.

The Husqvarna/Gardena etc. are pretty much all one design with different colors.

Checkout https://www.robonect-shop.de/ this is an add on for those devices and unlocks nice features.

Mqtt, pushover, weather etc.etc.

Definitely recommended.

Edit: the HA integration: https://github.com/geertmeersman/robonect

Easydns.ca, no privacy issues. Nothing about me personally in the who's db (.net tld)

Depending on the size, but I've had success with super glue and baking soda.
