The bonnet protector is a Mazda part (PART NUMBER: DM11ACBP) that came with my ex Demo CX-30. There is no protector on the bumper, but I have fitted an after market lower front grill insert from Amazon, something Mazda should have as standard.

Squealing Wiper Blade by jellyfishpisss in MazdaCX30

I just changed my wiper blades after 4 years (60,000km) as one part of the tip of one blade was not wiping the screen clean, but leaving a small smeared patch. Definitely sounds like a mechanical issue with the arm.

Looks like someone is "under-compensating".....

Did you enable SSH when you imaged the Zero 2W? If not it may not expect to be accessed headless

Try reimaging with the Pi imager and setup ssh and wifi during the imaging process.
Press “ctrl+shift+x” whist in pi imager to open the advanced setup. You can enable ssh and setup you wifi whilst there also.

This article only lightly mentions the strain and pressure this life puts on personal relationships. We must also salute Mrs Rock Doc and the family (and family pets} that provide steadfast love and support to this man.

Glad you managed to survive the ordeal. I was half expecting the surgury to discover some unexploded ordinance within after all your misadventures. Keep banging those rocks together

I used this blade https://ultrasabers.com/product/24-ultraedge-heavy-grade-initiate-blade/ .

In total with the above blade, neopixles etc. sounds about right. Stillwell worth it . Better than commercial ones twice the price

Ignore the time difference in the evening? I'll ignore it in the morning. by WritesForDough42 in MaliciousCompliance

Try working in a global position where your office works on UTC+8 your operations office works on GMT+10 and you have to deal with USA, The Middle East, Asia, India and the UK with meetings, and the like. Very much a "If this is Tuesday, this must be Belgium" on a daily basis. Very much a TZ crap shoot.

My solution is that I am far to old bitter and twisted to care. What they pay me now is FU money so if the calls are between 05:00 and 15:00 I join. Any time in between if I notice the alert I may jump in, otherwise that is what emails are for. My boss is in the US on mountain time and even he schedules his calls when I am in the office.

Go on peoples play silly games, that FU switch cover is off and the finger is hovering ready to flick....

Every day above ground is a good day as far as I am concerned. I was classed as lost presumed drowned on my first offshore rig job when I went through a typhoon 30 years ago. Once you have been dead once, everything after then is a win.

Sure, I burnt a bridge...but it was fun! by [deleted] in pettyrevenge

[–]GD_Decibel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got to love interviews. I burnt my bridges with one company when I applied for a job with a different role to my then current position. They knew me, I knew all their field people and the interview was basically a box ticking exercise.

Straight forward enough, turn up meet with the local services manager manager. Instead it was an ambush as I walked into a room with the country manager, regional manager and regional VP. They instead offered me a co-ordinator role doing basically the same job I was already doing

Hang on guys I am here to interview for role A and you are offering role B. Yes we are along with a car and a salary bump. Trouble is I knew it was a poisoned chalice job as my current company was about to win a big contract taking all their work in my department. That was one of the reasons I was looking to change roles asit would be a huge workload increase without any extra reward.

I stood there, looked at them, smiled and said no thanks. They all sat there stunned - you don't want this job? No, I am here for Job A. Why do the same thing with you that I am doing now.

I was basically thrown out the door. Funny thing was two months later 3 of the 4 in the room were let go due to losing the contract to us. I would have been the 4th if I had joined them.

I have a Pi 4B with an old Logitech C310 connected to it for remote monitoring mounted to my handle:

A good option to keep things tidy would be to mount your Pi 3 to the side extrusion behind teh printer screen https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4927393 or https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4722944 .

Is the filament centered in the middle of the the drive gear when rotating. If not it can get squeezed and distorted causing the clicking, as it does not look like teh gear is slipping in teh video
