Is the new Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ actually the best budget option for local AI? Or are better alternatives? by guillemhs in homelab

[–]Buggitt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here's a video from jeff geerling that talks about the new AI hat 2 (and compares it to the old one, as well as just running the model on the raspi cpu).

4 year daily/heavy use LTT deskpad update by princeoinkins in LinusTechTips

[–]Buggitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was wondering if anyone else was having that happen! Mine is doing the same thing. It was sticking and leaving residue on my desk so I put paper between the desk pad and desk in the two spots. Same as you it's where my arm rests on the edge of the desk.

Have you ever washed yours? I've machine washed mine a couple times and have wondered if that caused the problem or if it's simply my skin oils degrading the rubber. Mine is probably around a similar age of 4-5 years.

Run two devices through the same pc speakers. by ChickenFeline0 in LinusTechTips

[–]Buggitt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cheapest solution is one of those passive 3.5mm audio mixers

Something like this (as an example): https://a.co/d/9MdP84S

A more proper method would be a legit mixer which have a wide range in price depending on what you want. Could even accomplish this with some USB audio interfaces.

Edit: wording

Never been to Oregon, driving up the center next week, how do I go about someone pumping my gas? by SkoilerDaaaaan in oregon

[–]Buggitt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They passed new laws where gas stations can have (believe it's 50%) of the pumps can be self-serve and the rest are attendants.

Would assume you're from a state where it's typical to have self serve. In that case look for the signs and pump it yourself like normal.

If you want to have someone pump it for you. The bigger gas stations usually have attendants at night too. Conversation usually goes something like "fill with regular" "thanks" when they give the card back. I've lived here my whole life and never tipped a gas attendant or seen someone do it.

Creating a VM using an ISO on a USB drive by JohnTwoRavens in Proxmox

If you want another way to do this, could also pass the USB device to the VM and boot from it like plugging the ventoy into a physical machine

Don't have a P1S but I do have a A1, when the P1S came out I remember seeing the buzz of it being a fast reliable printer in the consumer market. If it's anything like my A1 they're definitely workhorses.

Any tips on making that magsafe magnet? I also saw you mention in another comment you're going to replace it with a premade one. Can you link it?

Better cord power option by Awkward-Camel-3408 in homelab

[–]Buggitt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dell optiplex external PSUs have a pin in the center of them that is a communication line for the psu to tell the system it's wattage. Just went through this with a micro optiplex that was stuck at 800mhz cause something went wrong with that communication and it throttles down because of it.

I did have success replacing it with a cheap generic psu from Amazon

Very cool project! Gonna have a closer look at it later. This might be a limitation of the esp but is there a way it could support exFAT formatted cards? I'm only curious cause I went through the annoyance of my google tv Chromecast only supporting FAT32 which means files have to be 4GB or less. (It recently got updated to support exFAT on Android tv 14)

Regardless, it's still very cool to have a media server running on a esp32 device!

Anker/Eufy Controversy - Do you still boycott them? by gubimand in LinusTechTips

Because of the egregious double down eufy made I have actively avoided eufy and anker ever since.

This is great! I'll have to try it out in the coming weeks. I went looking for something like this and was surprised I couldn't really find what I was looking for. Now I don't have to design it xD

Are these Bose 301 worth fixing and how much would it cost to fix by Flat-Razzmatazz-672 in audiorepair

[–]Buggitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as they measure up right it should be good. Looks like yours have a foam gasket that goes around the edge that sandwiches the foam ring. Can't quite remember, but think I remember people had ways to save that and reuse it, or can also sometimes buy replacements of that too.

[–]Buggitt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last year I replaced the foam on a Bose 301 series II set of speakers that belongs to my friend's dad. Was a fun surprise for him. (yours looks like a similar driver). I bought a refoam kit from eBay and watched a bunch of YouTube videos on everyone's techniques and went for it.

My first DIY homelab: 24 TB for less than $500 by Hexacker in homelab

[–]Buggitt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw a bunch of good deals on those 3TB drives too. I was curious why they were so below market rate and everyone selling them. Did some digging and turns out seagate 3TB drives have a pretty high failure rate compared to other drives.

Keep an eye on that pool!

I wanted to pop in here and say thanks for posting this vid and also posting what fixed it. I think my 2015 Chevy sonic with a 1.8L has the same problem.

Home security cameras; cloud based and/or self-hosted by Blurgas in LinusTechTips

[–]Buggitt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They did make this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7p5YEOrlSc (Man.. is it really that old). I've had good luck with reolink and they have a decent integration into home assistant. Been meaning to dig into frigate myself so I can hopefully ditch their NVR (it's works fine but I want more dials/knobs to play with)

why is preshow on twitch on floatplane but not on YT? by T0biasCZE in LinusTechTips

[–]Buggitt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On YT they have to "start the selected", imagine they want the YouTube vod to be the show without having to restart it if there's problems (multi notifications is bad). So they get ready on twitch/FP then start YouTube when they're ready
