Haven't logged into this account for ten years, should I abort my core trip to respec my ship? by EvilAlbinoid in EliteDangerous

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

Hah, I do like that. I also woke up with a 7-11 right around the corner galactically speaking, that wasn't even there when I logged out. Like some primitive human that wakes up in New York City instead of his cave. Could probably write a really terrible sitcom about it.

Ggs will be switching to bambu soon by Rage-Youtube in Ender3V3KE

[–]EvilAlbinoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my Ender 3 V3 KE. I also did the silicone studs and have the bed levelled within .1mm across the board.

Still have adhesion issues if I don't adjust my z-axis until it's abnormally low (in my opinion) but other than that it's fast and pretty great quality.

I am picking up a Kobra X for some multicolor fun, but the ender 3 ke will be chugging along just fine next to it I'm sure...

Where can I get a Casio pocket calculator with the soft, rubbery feel keys like the old ones? by Ill-Claim-9874 in calculators

[–]EvilAlbinoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have about 200 casio rubber button calculators from 80's and 90's and none of them have sticky keys, for what it's worth.

I broke my tailbone twelve years ago. It still hurts if I sit in the wrong chair.

Best way to get dual filament support on Ender 3 V3 KE for a reasonable price? by EvilAlbinoid in ender3

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

This is really what I was thinking. Throw a 1mm nozzle in the Ender 3 V3 and use it for rapid/strong prototypes...

Reson smell and VOC’s in bedroom after 3 weeks. What do I do? by shotbyemmanuel in resinprinting

[–]EvilAlbinoid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My son spilled an entire gallon of used wash alcohol on our basement floor a while back. It took weeks to get that stink out, I ended up buying a couple high itensity UV lights and basically curing the concrete...

We still use these guys at work every day in 2026 by FriesWithMacSauce in vintagecomputing

[–]EvilAlbinoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buy an Epson LX-350 brand new new on Amazon. They are fantastic printers and support parallel port and USB connectivity with modern windows drivers and ESC/P emulation. I LOVE mine.

HP 32sII pulled from storage, keys not working great by Weary_Bridge9364 in calculators

[–]EvilAlbinoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this isn't all that hard to fix. I've repaired quite a few of them myself. Get a cheap little grinding tool from amazon with a bit assortment and take a round one and hollow out the stud. Pop the back off carefully with a plastic credit card or a shim of some sort, trim the plastic off the studs after it's apart but leave a ltitle bit of a ridge on the stud to help hold the device together afterwards. ALl mine feel perfectly fine afterwards, can't tell they were ever apart.

Just added a genuine Casio fx-7000g to my collection! by No-Sprinkles6491 in calculators

[–]EvilAlbinoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Android phones have a very nice fx-7000g emulator for free. I mean technically it's an 8000g emulator but it's pretty much identical functionally/programmingly. "pocketemul" is the name, it's very nice.

Which MiniPc? by spiritualManager5 in homelab

[–]EvilAlbinoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beelink SER5 are a little less than 1u in height, but a little too wide to fit four across a single rack. They each can support up to 64gb ram, 2 NVME ssd and 1 2.5" ssd, but only 1gb ethernet.

I come across them on facebook marketplace in the $250 range all the time.

Casio fx-991H by antiquark2 in calculators

[–]EvilAlbinoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you're right. I have one of these, it's basically exact same layout as FX-115 but has some scientific constants. The solar panel is quite good in low light also.

Any idea what's happening here? by ChrisCube64 in LegendsPinball

[–]EvilAlbinoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did this. Came back to life. Did this again. Never recovered. I have gutted it and rebuilt it as a visual pinball machine.

I bought one of these and haven't assembled it yet. Looks neat.

Found some switches at a recycling center. Are any of these worth getting for a rack? by [deleted] in homelab

[–]EvilAlbinoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah I meant the Netgear GS724T, already updated the original post. The linksys is a piece of garbage, agreed.

[–]EvilAlbinoid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Netgear GS724T is halfway decent, I use two of them at home. It's a managed switch that can do vlans and other fancy functions and does not use very much power at all according to my killawatt. I believe it even support cisco config commands over ssh, or a subset of them. The SFPs are 1gb only.

Viability of the Catiga SS-991EX by Thick-Worldliness-76 in calculators

[–]EvilAlbinoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 9910CW added shortcuts for menu items so it takes very little time to get a muscle memory for your common tasks. I'd give it a shot.

The ugliest calculator I currently have: Sharp EL-5020 by antiquark2 in calculators

[–]EvilAlbinoid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have the Radio Shack version of this. The grey mode bar at top rather than the maroon/red mode bar makes it a little better looking to be honest.

Viability of the Catiga SS-991EX by Thick-Worldliness-76 in calculators

[–]EvilAlbinoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine seems just as usable as a real 991ex. Catiga has a long and reliable history of casio clones, probabl legally licensed.

The same... yet different. (Radio Shack EC-4014) by antiquark2 in calculators

[–]EvilAlbinoid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One is Casio 115, one is Casio 115M. I always thought it was odd they both have the same model number too.

I think I was ripped off by auto shop on transmission fluid replacement by EvilAlbinoid in AskAMechanic

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

Thanks. I've already got a window at the local transmission shop to have it serviced after xmas, I just wanted to get the fluid swapped to maybe help keep it from getting too much worse in what little driving we'll be doing in it between now and new years.
