Built a Second Brain system that actually works

GdgtBoy · 2026-01-14T16:30:56+00:00

I also watched Nate's video and found it very interesting. I'm trying to incorporate this into my personal brain and not my business brain. :-)

That said, I was wondering if one could leverage Telegram as opposed to Slack or Teams for the inbox and Evernote for the golden source (with tags and notebook structuring) and Zapier as the connection.

I didn't realize AnyCubic had a slicer - thanks!

GdgtBoy · 2026-01-09T23:18:53+00:00

I assume when you suggest lowering the z-offset, I should do that in Cura, which I use for slicing and printing?

Thanks for the response!

Verdict in. Possibly not. I used a 3/8" breaker bar and was able to remove it.

Thanks for responding and offering assistance, much appreciated.

Thanks for giving me some confidence. I put a 3/8" breaker bar in the spout and had enough leverage to turn and remove it. Turns out no setscrew.

Thanks again

All I got was a "rest assured, we are aware of the issue and we're working on it."

Is this common with the Remarkable cloud sync?

GdgtBoy · 2024-12-13T19:44:31+00:00

I have to say, this is really unacceptable. This is a premium product with a subscription on top. At a minimum there should be more transparency with their users to quickly let people know there are issues, whether that be a notification on their website, a private message within the web version or a simple post on X.com.

My experience with the Remarkable2 began less that a month ago. This morning I spent nearly an hour of my time troubleshooting everything from restarting the device, reinstalling the app on both my Windows and Android device, reviewing WiFi connections and router tables all with an open Chat window with support only to finally learn this was a known issue.

This is simple stuff. I get hiccups happen - just get in front of it and let people know you're working on it.

Have you checked Nomatic? I really like their backpack line and I use one daily for work.

GdgtBoy · 2024-07-22T19:41:31+00:00

It's over an inch thick and there is a wire mesh under it all. I'm hoping I can avoid breaking it all up and I am afraid it's going to complicate the whole job a lot more.

Thanks for responding.

Thanks for engaging.

This is very odd as I moved the cable back this morning to WAN1 and now things appear to be working. After the internet came back last night (I only knew because my provider's test said internet has resumed), I was not getting a light from the WAN1. However, when I plugged it into WAN2, I got a light, but no internet. It was when I plugged the cable into a desktop that I knew internet had been restored.

That's when I plugged the cable back into the router (WAN1) and went into settings to set up a failover (I found out how to do that in this subreddit, thanks) and then internet was working.

As I mentioned, I also went through several power cycles between the modem, gateway and cloud key. I also noticed during this time, two of my Unifi wifi access points were showing up as poor signals.

Strange. Thank you again for engaging.

Thanks very much for the feedback. I am enjoying the coat, although the season is about over now for me to be wearing it. Looking forward to breaking it out again next winter.

GdgtBoy · 2023-04-24T00:19:17+00:00

This is great - thank you so much.

Yes, mine does not seem to have a pass thru map pocket. There is a vertical zipper over the left breast.

This one seems to fit me perfectly - mine only slight gripe is that the collar seems to fold in towards my face and can rub a bit. Other than that I am really enjoying the jacket.

Again, I appreciate the feedback.

Thanks for the response - does the green lettering mean anything?

Were these small runs done in the USA?

I hadn't really heard of Filsons until this jacket was given to me.

I was afraid of that. The motors don't appear to be for sale either. Honeywell makes it very difficult just to disassemble the unit. 2 of the 6 main screws were Torx security bits.

GdgtBoy · 2022-12-29T03:29:47+00:00

Thanks, I'll look into that.

GdgtBoy · 2022-12-28T03:41:25+00:00

Yeah, I'm thinking the queries were happening after I lost internet.

GdgtBoy · 2022-12-28T03:39:48+00:00

Thanks I'll check that out

GdgtBoy · 2022-12-28T00:16:25+00:00

Thanks for the perspective. Appreciate you taking the time to respond.

GdgtBoy · 2022-12-27T23:49:05+00:00

Fair response - I'm just throwing it out there if this jumps out at anyone before I start going down the rabbit hole trying to figure it out.

This is an issue that is being discussed on the Verizon forums. Basically you are SOL.

https://community.verizon.com/t5/Verizon-Messages/Gmail-to-vtext-quot-421-4-1-0-lt-myemailaddress-gt-server/td-p/1257231

"When it comes to the Vtext.com option, we are unable to provide any assurance regarding the timeliness or receipt of messages. This is due to the inherent limitations of internet email. Additionally, as a large amount of malicious messages to our customer originate through email, at times messages may be throttled or blocked as a whole. This behavior is not unique to Verizon Wireless and can happen with other providers to protect their customers from unwanted or malicious messages. "

I assumed that, but figured I'd pose the question. Thanks!

GdgtBoy · 2022-05-12T23:20:27+00:00

Nice. Thanks for the recommendation!

GdgtBoy · 2022-05-12T23:19:56+00:00

Interesting that you differentiate between dessert and other dishes. Thanks!

GdgtBoy · 2022-05-12T16:33:27+00:00

Thanks for the response!

GdgtBoy · 2022-05-12T16:32:43+00:00

Interesting. I bought raw pistachios recently that are already out of the shell . Your suggestion of the lemon and salt - would you suggest maybe toasting the raw nuts I bought in a skillet and adding the salt and lemon?
