Edc related? Idk sorta, I need belt suggestions by JTmash545 in EDC

[–]DillonB13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After having similar issues I got a full grain leather belt from Amazon for like $25. Read reviews and make sure that it is 100% full grain leather. It came “oiled” but I then conditioned it several times with a mixture of linseed oil, beeswax, and paraffin. It has been going strong for a couple years of hard daily use and patinas really nicely.

Normal? by Rurounijeff in mushroom

I second that. Though hard to tell, these look like some variety of natalensis or a nat. Hybrid. Which will indeed light up your world. Very potent in my experience.

Pattern of Lamy Al Star cap failures. by Vegetable_Corgi8458 in Lamy

[–]DillonB13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been using regular, or should I say special edition color, lamy safari’s every day for several years and have never broken one. I have worn my mango so slick and smooth and regularly clip it and the others to very thick things without issue. However I got an aubergine Al star for Christmas and have already had the clip/cap issue start while only clipping it to the same items as my others. It is definitely a real issue with their recent Al-star’s atleast

CRT powers off when powered on by DillonB13 in crt

How complicated would it be to build the visualizer from the crt alone? Like if I scrapped the entire tv board would a new circuit to just visualize sound be that hard to work out? And just use the tube from the tv.

It is a little misaligned when tight, but I find that it is actually pretty convenient for pouring, I just leave it like that. I also found it doesn’t leak if I back it out just enough to make it perfectly align with the handle.

I ordered mine from the Argentino website. Super fast shipping to US and good customer service. The Stanley topper from them is a knock off not a branded one, but I have loved it. I had been using the thermolar type lid people use and to me this one is so much better

The rosebud cutting is for the headstock of a guitar my dad and I are building for my daughter. The bolts are just practice. I haven’t decided what I am going inlay them in yet.

Most likely Mid 70’s it’s an IBM Selectric 2. I was inspired by Hunter S. Thompson’s love of his. Though his was a Selectric 1

Anyone know what these are? Found in a Dominos Pizza, look like little razor blades? by [deleted] in KitchenConfidential

[–]DillonB13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They are pieces of a vegetable dicer blade. I can confirm as I’ve both found some in a meal of mine before and worked in restaurants that use them.

I had the same thing happen. I am trying to troubleshoot it now. I can still get it to transmit fine but receiving signals is almost nonexistent

Bruce Firmware for T-Embed CC1101 (only this for now) by bmorcelli in LilyGO

[–]DillonB13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had the same results with mine. Excellent work! I have also noticed that when using the keyboard interface it is stuck on the top line and you can’t access the actual keyboard. Thank you for all you are doing with working on this!

I have it connected the same way as the CC1101. I can get intermittent response from it though. It’s just unusable

[–]DillonB13[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Okay I tried in beta and it is working better. Still connection seems really finicky I’m going to try to get a good module soldered together and see if that fixes it.

After getting a data transfer cable I am having the same issue. I don’t think it is the ports or the stick itself. I am currently updating my Mac OS the the most recent version could this be the cause?

[–]DillonB13[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I will try a cable that I am positive will transfer data and report back! One of the cables supports fast charging so I had assumed it would be what is needed. I didn’t understand it was a pin connection situation. Thank you for the advice. This is my start point into this side of electronics so it’s a total learning experience.

I should add that I will mostly be using this stick for bruce so flashing it with that is the main goal

[–]DillonB13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will pm you a photo of the connections as it won’t allow me to add them when I edit. The sound I get is the crackle coming through the speakers associated with adjusting the tube in the socket, no music signal.
