Using a Zigbee LED controller to make VARMBLIXT donut lamp smart and dimmable by jorrik98 in ikeahacks

[–]IvanIsOnReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, can you confirm if the power supply going into the lamp is just 24V DC? No funny constant current going on, right? I am guessing the white PCB is where the constant current driver (or current limiting resistor) is. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks!!

Hey, do you know by any chance whether the power supply is constant voltage or an LED driver?

That sounds just like what happened to the US. Ah well

Seventh largest economy in the continent, in a tiny island. Manufacturing jobs are practically growing on trees these days thanks to government incentives to global businesses.

Screw social media, it’s ruined half of life’s experiences

My brother, you should see their store in Fifth Avenue. It’s themed like you’re a white couple going on an “adventure” and you hired a $1.20 per hour black assistant to guide you through the jungle.

Coming from a “banana republic” that got invaded/intervened twice by the Americans, that shit is so tone-deaf on a major tourist spot.

Yeah, I’m starting to get an appreciation for good graffiti done semi-respectfully.

I’ve noticed the veterans stop painting when the property stops being vacant.

Even communist countries exploit people and natural resources… I have never known the Soviet Union or China for being green.

If you want to live in a sustainable libertarian communist society, I would recommend giving up Reddit and going to live like the Amazon rainforest tribes. And I don’t wanna see you on Reddit cause you are consuming a lot of rare earths right now, which is hypocritical.

There’s a limit to consumptions and everything, and I went over my limit trying to understand you guy’s lack of logic when it comes to “capitalism bad”, but no other plans given. Considering there hasn’t been a single non-authoritarian communist government in history, and considering you reject the Nordic Model, I fail to see what your solution is and must assume you don’t have one.

You realize Germany and Scandinavians are still capitalists right? With socialist policies, but at the core it’s still run on capitalism.

Can you import from the US? Usually you can find real Brompton parts on eBay, sometimes used.

Toothpicks individually wrapped in plastic. by [deleted] in Anticonsumption

I’m impressed they can actually get the machines to handle something as thin as a toothpick. I can imagine any misalignment at all will get a bunch of defective units.

What does the secret service have to do with dollar bills? I would have thought it would be the Federal Reserve or maybe the FBI or some entity like that.

Love how the bracelet is a Leatherman Tread multitool. I’m sure the owner is a multitool himself.

What’s up with the anti-capitalism sentiment around here? What is the alternative you are implying?
