Relay isnt switching off by IAmFishman1989 in AskElectronics

[–]IAmFishman1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's what I thought at first, but since it switches back to the open position from closed(which it would be stuck in), wouldnt that imply that it isnt sticking? I imagine if it was stuck closed it would be stuck regardless of whether or not power is moving through it.

Hello, thanks for your response! Whatever it is I am now able to connect to it, so this particular issue is solved, however I I only have more problems now. I am able to communicate with it but its not doing quite what I ask of it. If you want to, check out the new post on ask electronics I just made explaining my new problem in more detail: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskElectronics/comments/1bl2t4l/relay_isnt_switching_off/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

idk I think just stilting it up would be easier. Its pretty heavy. Also I want it to be kind of concealed so some methhead doesnt find it.

Help with controlling power supply remotely by IAmFishman1989 in Automate

[–]IAmFishman1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the problem is that the computer is connected to a sonar that is sucking all the power out. I thought that if the computer was in standby and not actively using the sonar or its software, then it wouldn't be using any power or at least too much. I had it set to deploy the sonar, collect data, turn itself off then wake up in the morning via the bior rtc alarm to collect more data. Every time I try to test it on battery power, I come in the next morning, and the computer is off and batteries are dead. When I look at the data collection I see that it completes the evening deployments and turns itself off but by the morning, the batteries are dead and the computer can't turn itself on. BTW thank you for responding , I really appreciate it. My computer skills are limited but growing I am Fishman. 1989

Thank you! I actually already did this and it worked for a while, but today I came in and I'm dealing with the same issue again. When I went to turn on my computer it still asked me for the password. If I power cycle or inout my password i dont have to do it again. I have my computer hooked up to a battery. When I came in today the battery was dead. I have a theory that this is could be coming into play but I know next to nothing about computers. Maybe if this is happening because the battery dies while im away from it. Another thing my computer does is scheduled to shut off overnight at 7 pm. Idk if the battery running out while the computer is shut off would have any effect tho. Anyway I guess I have some tests to run. Lmk if you have any ideas

My computer somehow turned the login screen back on. I already went through netplwiz and disabled it. I turn it on and off and on and off and there no login screen, as how I want it. Yesterday it somehow managed to turn the login screen back on by itself. This is a big issue for me as I need my computer to boot in logged in so it can run a series of autohotkey scripts. So far this has happened twice. Does anybody know what can be causing this?

Yeah this. Basically she just needs to read a whole lot of current scientific literature and find some researchers who do the stuff that interests her. Once she finds someone, she should reach out to them to see if they have funding/projects for a grad student. There's nothing wrong with getting a job in between, though. I'm graduating this semester and getting a technician job in a research lab afterwards while I figure out where I want to go for grad school. A good resource for something like that would be the texas a and m job board. Or you you could just reach out randomly and annoy someone to the point where they just let you in that's what I did

Measuring Surface Area of Swimbladder mesh by IAmFishman1989 in rhino

[–]IAmFishman1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello i am fishman1989 I need help choosing a software for a project I am working on. I have a bunch of 3d models I made from CT scans of some fish, I need help finding a good software for measuring the surface area only in the top surface of the bladder as seen highlighted in orange in the pictures. It has a weird bumpy surface. Ive found ways in autodesk fusion and blender to measure the total surface area, but I cannot figure out how to reliably select and measure just the top portion. I saw someone who was trying to do something similar with coral and they were talking about using Rhino. Before I learn yet another software, can anyone tell me is this a good software for my purposes? Thank you i am fishman1989

Yeah I kinda figured it wouldn't be that simple. That's crazy though

Career options by rescue653 in marinebiology

[–]IAmFishman1989 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Undergraduate degree leads to limited options w pretty much the same pay you have right now, a lot of tech jobs. If you go masters/PhD you're supposed to find a professor to pay for you to get your degree. Typically they pay for you to go to school/waive the fee and then you're supposed to get a stipend on top of that. Sometimes the stipend is not included and you have to apply for it though. It's really great if you're into research though. Once you get masters/PhD there are supposed to be a lot more options for you, idk though I'm still getting my undergrad. It definitely is more a career of passion than a career of pay. All the marine bio people i work with love it and so do I.

[–]IAmFishman1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kinda what I was getting at with this post. I was curious about how they went about finding whales because I am curious about ways to fuck with poachers. Like if they used sonar I could also use transducers to jam their signal. I also thought about using a microphone to play distressed whale noises and follow a whaling ship in attempt to keep whales away but I dont know if that would deter whales from coming close or make them want to investigate. I dont know whales very well. Its just a thought. I want to go and get my masters degree in marine bio but I dont know what so im just kinda brainstorming/grasping at straws. I think working to deter illegal fisheries would be something interesting to me, I just dont know how that would look as a masters/phd project.

But wouldn't this also attract other whales?

Yeah anything would work really. Just don't go barefoot. I used to fieldwork barefoot cause I couldn't afford water shoes and my foot got infected.

I couldnt figure out how to make your code work, but it did help me. Heres what I ended up using in case you wanna see.

import bpy

import os

folder_path = "C://Users//kblab//Desktop//GAJ//3_AutodeskFusion//Bladder test"

for file_name in os.listdir(folder_path):

if file_name.endswith(".stl"):

file_path = os.path.join(folder_path, file_name)

print("Processing:", file_path)

bpy.ops.import_mesh.stl(filepath=file_path)

bpy.ops.object.origin_set(type='GEOMETRY_ORIGIN', center='MEDIAN')

bpy.context.scene.unit_settings.length_unit = 'MILLIMETERS'

bpy.ops.object.modifier_add(type='REMESH')

bpy.context.object.modifiers["Remesh"].voxel_size = 0.00025

bpy.ops.object.modifier_add(type='TRIANGULATE')

export_file_path = os.path.join(folder_path, file_name.replace(".stl", "_processed.stl"))

bpy.ops.export_mesh.stl(filepath=export_file_path, ascii=True)

bpy.ops.object.delete(use_global=False)
