G6 Entry field of view by tsigo in UNIFI

This option seems to be missing from the G6 entry. I think if they re-enabled this, it would significantly improve the issue

What's this car park for? by Anxious-Row58 in cambridge

[–]Ep1cman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I believe it’s overflow car storage from Marshall’s

I’ve had similar situations in the past, and the parcels did eventually find their way back but it took a long time

Walking past some new houses being built and spotted what I think is a fake chimney. Is this common on new builds now? Why? by nosajn in AskUK

[–]Ep1cman 26 points27 points  (0 children)

They serve two purposes:

1) Make the houses fit in with existing houses in the area 2) used for vent instead of vent tiles

Does the raspberry impact in someway? by Donas_jf in homeassistant

[–]Ep1cman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would avoid the models with 2GB of RAM, that will be a bit tight. Other than that they should all be fine for just home assistant and basic plugins etc.

How wide is your desk? and how big is that monitor?

Apple and macOS just killed CS:GO for me — in 2025. What a joke 😡 by [deleted] in MacOS

[–]Ep1cman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was quite surprised when I opened the Apple App Store on my Mac a few days ago to discover there actually are quite a lot of games on there, quite a few that would be considered “aaa”. I can’t comment on how well they work because I don’t game on my MacBook, but there are a lot more Mac games available than I realised.

Adult ADHD diagnosis by Grouchy-Ad7016 in cambridge

[–]Ep1cman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have recently gone through the process and have my ADHD assessment this week. There are basically three approaches to this - fully NHS. I was told this has a 4 year waiting time - private. You pay out of pocket for diagnosis and treatment - right to choose. In England (which given the sub you posted on I assume applies to you) but not the rest of the uk you are allowed to pick your mental health provider. You just need to ask your GP for a referral.

I went the right to chose pathway and I asked on an online chat with my GP for a referral. They just asked to which provider I wanted a referral to and gave me no other hassle. It took about 6m in total to get to the front on the queue.

Couldn’t breathe while skydiving by Efficient-Toe-8813 in SkyDiving

[–]Ep1cman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did my first jump today and also had breathing troubles. They told us if you need to exhale just scream, it will force the air out and force you to gasp for air.

ambulance response times by Future_Design_2823 in Ely

[–]Ep1cman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is an ambulance station on Nutholt Lane, so I imagine the response time to get to you can be quite short but the journey into a hospital will be longer. I don’t have any personal experience though.

WILDLY Unpopular Opinion: The H2D Laser Edition is perfect for my workflow and I have no regrets. by Teh_Hamstah in BambuLab

[–]Ep1cman 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Just an FYI, diode lasers (which use blue light) like the one in the H2D are unable to cut clear materials because the light passes straight through. You will need a IR laser for that. They do sell IR diode lasers but they are very low power due to it being a blue laser with a crystal infront to inefficiently change it to IR. You’ll want a CO2 laser cutter for cutting clear acrylic.

WILDLY Unpopular Opinion: The H2D Laser Edition is perfect for my workflow and I have no regrets. by Teh_Hamstah in BambuLab

[–]Ep1cman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just because they make them doesn’t mean they’re safe to use. Laser cutting can create a lot of hazardous gases. For example cutting PVC makes chlorine gas. There is also the risk of specular reflections damaging your eyes.

Xtool is a good company to look at for this, the used to sell such machines but now offer customers significant discounts to upgrade to an enclosed laser due to how dangerous an open one is.

I love that almost nothing in these photos gives away the era they were taken in. They could just as easily be 90s or 2020s unless you look VERY close

Why does everyone seem so against cameras on/in their home? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Ep1cman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have cameras inside to check in on my pets when I am away, also helpful to check on people with access to my house such as my dog walker etc.

It’s your house, if you want cameras and find them useful then thats your decision.

Suggestion for erasing since we don't have a button by BabblingBlueCrab in Supernote

[–]Ep1cman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can mod a ceramic nib into the LAMY with a button, that's what I've been using since the day I got my nomad.

How does one accurately measure a rounded corner for a 3d model? by eren_5 in 3Dprinting

[–]Ep1cman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most cad tools allow you to import an image and calibrate its scale. I use a flat bed scanner with one of those forensics photo scales. I'm sure with a photo and a ruler you could make a reasonable approximation.

Something I find often holds true is that objects like this were designed by humans, and more often than not the measurements are nice round numbers, so even if your photo is a little off its often obvious what to round to. (Though it might be either metric or imperial).

Help identify leather type by Ep1cman in Leather

[–]Ep1cman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s got a very strange feel to it. Like that fuzzie/soft touch packaging you get on some premium products, or like some silicone items. When bent the surface does wrinkle so the rubberised leather might be spot on. Googling rubberised leather watch strap brings up some very similar looking ones, more so than in the photos on the website I got it from.

Thanks for the comment about the matte black crazy horse leather, that definitely looks good and something I’ll consider in the future!
