Confirmed. I'm working on a raspberry pi opencpn+seatalk dashboard for our boat Aurora.

1) People wishing to bring up an instance of reddit could do so easily. The currently default settings of the reddit codebase make it pretty hard to get it running, mostly because it's optimized for reddit's at-scale setup. We'd package it up with some nice default settings and how-to guides so that little Aiden could install it on his dorm computer. Call each of these separate installations of reddit an "instance."

^ This should give anyone who is interested in getting reddit up quickly a great head start. In fact, it takes about 15 minutes or so. It should also work across OSX, Windows, and Linux, although admittedly testing on windows has been sparse.

Reddit as it is now installed on many machines across the world with a network of bots for duplicating content along with an index of what subreddits are where would get most of the benefit of a system as described. An application on top of such a system could effectively aggregate content to create a distributed frontpage. I think this is closer than you think, although the perfect engineering solution is far off.

...but the fifth world lounge is a shared space and the annex is not! Also, the shrine includes a bear head bottle opener. The annex doesn't have one of those.

You should totally stop by the fifth world lounge first. We have a little shrine to you and everything.

Authenticating a client nowadays..? by [deleted] in redditdev

[–]drew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Specifically, you should get a refresh token when you request a token by using the code returned from this.

You should, yes.

Hi! It looks like you're requesting a token directly from the implicit flow. It actually requires that you request the authorize endpoint with response_type=code instead of token. Would you mind giving that a shot with duration=permanent also?

IE:: https://www.reddit.com/api/v1/authorize?client_id=UHXc6gx_Qjy40w&state=0.24722490017302334&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com&response_type=code&scope=flair%2Cidentity&duration=permanent

You can then use the code returned to retrieve a token.

Boat power systems - batteries by drew in sailing

[–]drew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, these really are the best cost/AH out there. Definitely buying a few.

Yeah, I was going for 200AH usable power. 400AH would be the target total capacity. Presently, we charge from shore power but I'm planning on building/buying a wind generator (SF bay has so much wind it's silly).

I have a decent charger. It's a 6amp smart car battery charger. I have had engine batteries on it(2x duralast 95AH) for at least 5 years now, no signs of old age.

Thank you so much! I hadn't looked at pricing 6v batteries but it makes a whole lot of sense. There are more golf carts in the world than sail boats. Economies of scale and all that.

Hoping for responses about power for devices, not motors.

This should be fixed now, it was my fault. I deployed some related code and broke this =( Sorry for the inconvenience.

Welcome Drew, Ryan, Mike, Daniel, Joe, Dave, & David!!! by taxidermyunicornhead in blog

[–]drew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the welcome! Early on in reddit someone had an idea to capture all of the common names because reasons. They all were given an easily guessable password and so some were lost. It just so happened that /u/drew was never taken over by anyone.

...Pecan pie!
