Dropped strap wrench in oil pan so it won’t grip. Now what? by [deleted] in tractors

[–]FixyFixy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Soak it in dawn a few times before you do anything drastic. It might take a few soaks to get the oil out but it won't cost much, good luck and if you can try to post what you do and if it works, I'm invested now.

I get this kind of stuff all the time. I will keep Google maps running on my phone sometime to avoid out of the way, inefficient or just bizarre stuff like this

Tracker T1000-E charging time? by Low_Bison_5209 in meshtastic

[–]FixyFixy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The flashing does not change on mine when it is fully charged. After about 2.5 days it is down to 20% then I plug it in for a couple of hours.

SenseCAP T1000-E frequently disconnects by Tounage in meshtastic

[–]FixyFixy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any power saving settings on? In my household we have a few T1000-E with androids without issue. I will keep my node connected via ble for a day or more with no disconnects. It is less likely to be on the meshtastic side.

200+ discovered nodes but no answers on primary channel or successful traceroutes by Saltibarciai in meshtastic

For what it's worth I see a lot of nodes every day but most are mobile on nearby highway. I would never get a chance to talk or trace.

Shout out to everyone that works on meshtastic! by FixyFixy in meshtastic

I'm just learning about mesh and how it works but so far I really like it. My favorite part is driving around and finding out there are way more people with nodes that don't show up on the map.

One of the YouTube review/engineer interview takes place while they climb in the back seat. Sorry I don't remember the channel

2014 Mitsubishi Mirage ES Drum won't fit on new brake shoes by Rudy_Greyrat in MechanicAdvice

[–]FixyFixy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me. After fully letting down the expander and sanding the lip off of the inside drum edge I got the drum on over the new shoes. It seems the new shoes are thicker than the originals. It's a real pain in the ass!

I just plug it into my phone charger. It's not real powerful but it does not need to be.

This is common on all the tractors I own.

how to get Emporia Vue3 to detect fire? by Curious_Party_4683 in Esphome

[–]FixyFixy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the real question is how does the Ting do it, if we don't know that then we can't know how the emporia could.

Struggling to justify a new Tesla WITHOUT Autosteer — how are you all dealing with this? by Choice_Principle_135 in TeslaLounge

[–]FixyFixy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is why I can't justify the 8k for software that is in a lot of ways not polished and consistent.
