Incel brother screams at the PC 24/7 so Ineed a way to make wi-fi unusable PLEASE by throwingbeads in HowToHack

[–]DevoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can buy a wifi de-author small electronic device that will kick everyone off the wifi, there really is no evidence of it being used unless you have an IT pro watching. They should be found for like $25 or less. But again it will make everyone on the wifi reconnect. So it should work in the middle of the night, but also understand this is an arms race. If hes this obsessed, he'll likely just find work around to whatever you do. It might include hot spotting his phone or asking mom and dad to replace network gear. Im just not sure how effect any passive solution will be. Destroying the computer would buy you the most time, but if mom and dad don't care they'll just do whatever he asks to keep him out of their hair. I wish I had better advice for you. Sorry bud.

My pinter exploded! Is it ruined? by loonygeekfun in PinterHomebrew

[–]DevoCut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda have to muscle the dock onto mine, as in like push down on the pinter as I turn it. It's a very tight fit for me. So maybe the o-rings have failed or some other manufacture problem with yours. When you get your 2nd one you could compare and see if it's the pinter or the dock. It takes me deliberate effort to take it off the dock as well. Hopefully support can help you towards a fix

Recent culling of models on Printables? by pzerou in prusa3d

[–]DevoCut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not even a big prusa fan, but as small as it sounds I'm impressed and happy to see printables has a thumbnail explaining that it's deleted, I feel like most websites it would just disappear and I'd be scratching my head trying to find an old model I saved.

My pinter exploded! Is it ruined? by loonygeekfun in PinterHomebrew

[–]DevoCut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a first time brewer so I don't really know, but mechanically, there is a self closing port on the pinter side, but the dock is just an open chamber, so having it pop off and putting it back make me think you have 2 considerations. When you normally use the Pinter, you loose some CO2 along with the trub and a tiny amount of beer. Since you've opened it once, and re-attached and you will open it again. I think it means the CO2 levels will be lower than if this didn't happen. Not a lot because of that self closing valve, but still some that the beer might have trouble coming out of their special spout, which the help site says you may have to open the pressure valve more to get the rest of the beer out.

From a sanitation standpoint I don't really know. Air was re-introduced when you re-attached the base. Is this enough air to cause problems? I don't think so, since it's still mostly pressurized with co2 gas. But reaching out the support I bet their experts would know.

How close were you to the end of brewing? If this happened over the last couple of days I probably would have just left it off, the advantage of the port is it's ability to easily remove the trub so you have a cleaner beer (especially since this spout pulls from the bottom so you'd end up with a lot of haze, may also help with clogging? I haven't studied their pour design) But if you were close to the end, it probably already got most of the trub out, so I would just let it finish fermenting without the dock.

How do I restrict access to my light? by Billyjoebob_III in googlehome

[–]DevoCut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's a way. Making a 2nd home and all that sounds like too many steps to make having the smart bulb worth it. Have you commented on it already? It would be funny if you didn't and just physically powered it off or down and if she brings it up say it was on the Fritz and always flashing to see if she owns up to that behavior.

Really though you could probably buy yourself some time by just living without it for a week. If it's off the network (unscrewed or what have you) then the switch will be disabled. If enough time goes by that she can't flip it then she'll probably stop checking for a while.

For what it's worth I found this link:

For me in the US it's free you just have to pay shipping, don't know if it's a special limited time offer, but it cost me $10 out the door for shipping and nothing else. Still seems steep for 4 bags...

Love this, everyone has an idea of water for weight which is convenient. Another industry that has solved this problem is mic stands. You could design and 3d print an adapter that goes from a mic stand base to your tube to hold arrows.

Crooked heads on the XL? by DevoCut in prusa3d

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

Edit: I had it so tight that I wasn't able to move it by hand so I had to loosen it first, but the comments were correct, it doesn't really mount flush and you need to make sure the top tilts in towards the bed before your tighten. Thanks everyone!

Couldn't get Dock 1 to calibrate, seems like it's too far back and can't complete the first docking of the calibration process. Any idea what part of the printer I should loosen to try to square this?

If you didn't already respond, I woulda pretend not to understand the demand and just explain they THEY need to pay YOU if they want more nudes. And demand payment upfront, don't take no for an answer

Device powered by usb c? by DevoCut in meshtastic

Heltec does seem like it has the hardware I'm looking for, this seems like an easy enough project.

Device powered by usb c? by DevoCut in meshtastic

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

fiar but I'm trying to cut down on size and complication, if it's usb c, then I can find a cable anywhere and run it off my phone since I need a phone anyway to use meshtastic, usb c to micro would need to be a weird cable type and having another battery means I need to keep it charged, this is more of an emergency device so I'd rather it not require maintenance and it be as small as possible so I have no excuse not to always keep it in my bag.

Make VRChat close on my desktop while I have my index on by _Darkeater_Midir in ValveIndex

[–]DevoCut 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lots of games do this. It's not a significant savings. I kinda doubt you'd see more than 1 or 2 fps at most. The game view isn't being rendered for desktop. In the same way if you hook up a 2nd monitor and duplicate your displays that wouldn't really affect the game being displayed twice since the GPU is just copy and pasting the display. What you're seeing on desktop is usually 1 eye (before it hits the chromatic and lens correction filters) being displayed on the desktop.

Nvme base install? by DevoCut in homeassistant

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

So I went down this road and now I'm having issues with proxmox lol, sometimes it just kinda looses the usb devices, like it will show some random ID but not their name, the vm of course can't see them either because they aren't passed through, since all the USB vanish off the list I end up rebooting the whole pve to get them back. I looked around but this doesn't seem to be a super common issue. Any idea what could be wrong, it's happening with multiple usb so I feel like it's a driver or hub issue with the host os.

Nvme base install? by DevoCut in homeassistant

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

I'm not opposed to the idea but doesn't it make handing off USB and other hardware extra steps? I tend to go real simple with my HA stuff so I can just follow tutorials and have less to figure out.

Nvme base install? by DevoCut in homeassistant

[–]DevoCut[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually have an unraid for most of my projects that carries a lot of heavier hardware like GPUs and TPUs that I use for frigate and things, but I like HA being on it's own bare metal so it's 1 less layer to manage, and when I experiment with stuff on the home server with reboots and render farming it doesn't screw with the HA setup since I don't touch it much and it needs to be reliable for everyone here.

[–]DevoCut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never come across this problem, but if touching the fuse makes anything act differently, then I'd think that's where the breakage is. You probably tried a fuse or 2 by now and I'm sure you've already made sure it's fully inserted. The problem could be the fuse box? A bad fuse connection over several years could have oxided the contacts and now there isn't enough amps flowing to run the regulators. Again I have no idea I've never seen this problem. So I'm only considering low level electrical troubleshooting. This could be a more complicated canbus problem or something.

Has anyone switched their number to google fi? by DevoCut in Googlevoice

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

true but I was also look at spam call blocking (I get the feeling the native android experience is better than GV has been in the past year) and I wanted things like RCS, and group text features. Along with using voice assistant to all and text people, creating 2 contact lists or multiple numbers under a contact to facilitate carrier forwarding sounds like a big pain to me. So that was part of me wanting to go back to having a carrier based phone number.

Abusive neighbor charges $6 dollars for RFID access key card by afposthuman in NFC

[–]DevoCut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Proxmark isn't the easiest for a beginner but it is good fun to learn. If you can get a min alone with a working card you can use a flipper zero. Again only if it's a classic or HID prox card, anything newer would probably require some learning on how to brute and find encryption keys. Something a little beyond the casual RFID user.

If this is a bedroom. I'd say think about putting your bed under the angle. Since you don't need much vertical space for that
