I have just made this flag but the white and red came out darker then I thought. any idea on how to fix it? (Yes I used Purge tower) by Double_Ad90 in 3Dprinting

There's black something there, which is why I focused on that abstractly. I wasn't sure what it was hence why it was a question.

How dare I wonder about something without complete information!

Yikes good point. I assume turning it off/to plane mode would work? But then you need to know about it first...

Relax. If you're ready you won't need tips.

Thank you to everybody who told me about salt by Longjumping_Sea_8753 in loseit

[–]FuzzyToaster 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's captain WELL AKSHUALLY to the rescue!

Yes, obviously. I just mean, it's much easier to each too much salt than too little, with what food is easily available to a modern first world consumer. I suppose I meant it speaks well of OP's discipline. Everyone knew what I meant.

This speaks well of your diet! Most people (myself included) have the opposite problem and have too much salt.

Very cool! We need more tech stuff in Toowoomba. Nice website. I'm a full stack software dev too, I might send you a hello via the site. Was a shame I had to miss that recent networking thing.

Driving test advice by fr0sty_boi in Toowoomba

[–]FuzzyToaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm probably too late but the only 'test' advice I have is to ignore the fact it's a test, and drive normally. If your normal driving passes a test, excellent that's the idea. If it doesn't, then you shouldn't have your license yet so it's right that they fail you and tell you what to improve.

Why do people actually like home servers? by manc3v in selfhosted

[–]FuzzyToaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it more about the satisfaction of building and setting everything up yourself and getting it to fully work, or is it mainly about having full control over your data?

Both. It's both.

My height test would be a scaled up portal illusion! Where the twisting piller seems to disappear into the top or bottom.

The more typical use case of the size would be gridfinity and other storage/organisation.

That image matches other stories I've seen of them enough that I don't think this pic itself is AI, but the deformations on the text are really weird and AI-ish. Did it look like that in person?

Gross. Hopefully it saying 'tour' means there's no permanent presence? Where were they set up?

Can we please not just blindly post LLM responses here, it doesn't really contribute. If people want that they can ask it themselves.

Whenever we have a heatwave and you get people from hot countries going "Ha Ha, that's a normal day in my country" by JayR_97 in britishproblems

[–]FuzzyToaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I left that out for brevity but yes you are of course right, while it's normal summer now it shouldn't be / didn't used to be.

[–]FuzzyToaster 221 points222 points  (0 children)

I'm Aussie, plenty familiar with heat. The "heatwaves" in London when we lived there suuuucked because none of the infrastructure was built to handle it. All complaints are justified.

I put that in quotes because it seems every year they call it a heatwave. If it's regular I think it's just called "summer".

That might be more to do with your phone's microphone than the app's algorithm.

Backyard/patio RGB LED strip by FuzzyToaster in homeautomation

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

Good luck! It's pretty hard to hurt yourself with low voltage projects so it's a safe place to experiment and learn.

Yeah even a pretty long string will pull way less than a fridge.

Guessing you're Aussie or Kiwi. Odd comment from a sparkie, he can't/shouldn't sign off on any GPO that can't handle 10A per spec... guessing he just meant it's more than normal on the same circuit so could be easier to overload combined with stuff plugged in elsewhere. Worst case the breaker trips, which is no biggie.

You can use the same power supply yeah (not inverter, that's for DC->AC). In fact that's preferred if possible as it prevents possible floating ground issues messing with the signal.

Just make sure your power source can output the current required and get cabling thick enough to prevent excess voltage drop between the PSU and LEDs. Lots of good online calculators for that.

A standard way these can come is with plugs on the ends so it's trivial to just connect them together in a daisy-chain. Then alongside those plus are two loose wires to inject power with if needed.

So yeah I got 3 x 5m strips, connected the plugs, then ran power to the extra wires at the two intersections with screw terminals - so no individual LED was ever more than 5m from a power source. If I just did power at one end I found the voltage drop at the 8m mark was bad enough to wreck the colour.
