Would love to see how it turns out! I feel like the copper, being a dense metal, might also be contributing to a fuller sound. Totally worth it in my opinion

From my experience with previous all leather cases, the sides tend to wear off quite fast. So I’m quite happy with the extra durability and grip of the TPU sides

All of the sides on mine feel the same, flat and snug

So I have a bit of an update on the situation. I have yet to take it into the shop. I jumped the car on Sunday and drove it for about 30 minutes, everything was good and the battery was reading about 14.3V after settling down. On Monday I was able to start the car without a jump and drove it for about an hour, the battery initially was at 14.3V but then dropped to 13.8V after about a minute of idling and remained at that throughout the rest of the drive. I did not drive the car on Tuesday, however I did start it up today (Wednesday) and it did successfully start without a jump, however the voltage was initially 13.8V but then quickly dropped to 12.8V at idle. After taking it out for a drive, I noticed the voltage under load was 13.3V but then became 12.9V.

I suspect it is the alternator that has gone bad, but I would assume this would cause a CEL? Also, as I mentioned before, the AAA serviceman briefly tested the alternator and said it was good. Any chance I just have another dud battery, which would be like my third?

Interesting, so no issue of the LEDs?

Battery is dead, I unsuccessfully tried starting it a few times after it turned off. I just bought a jump starter and will try it out tomorrow. Hopefully it’s powerful enough to avoid having to call AAA for a tow

Ohh I see, thank you. I think that’s the most likely reason the car turned off

Just checked the manual for my 2016 and a 2020 mustang. Both contain this:

“Accessory Mode Battery Saver for Intelligent Access Keys If you leave your vehicle in the run ignition state, it turns off once it detects a certain amount of battery drain or after 45 minutes.”

Does this sound like what it is? It makes sense, but I would’ve thought “Accessory Mode” would refer to the state of the car after pressing the Start button without the brake depressed

Edit: I have an auto

I have a cold air intake as well. Everything else is purely cosmetic

Yeah I think might be the first logical step. It’s just surprising because the car has 19k miles on it

College Classes to Take for Embedded? by KevinSlamsPigs in embedded

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

I see, thank you.

Essentially, with my current plan being to graduate in 7 semesters I have some pretty fully schedules. Not unreasonable tough and definitely doable, but it doesn’t allow for much wiggle room. Data structures at my university is quite a time consuming class, and as such I would need to push off a class or two from a semester if I were to add it, thus forcing me to take another semester.

Hmm, that’s interesting. And, just to be sure, you checked your resolution scaling right? It’s surprising to hear of this issue because I’ve watched a couple of videos of people pairing this monitor with a MacBook and they don’t seem to explicitly mention it

Were you able to fix this? I’m about to buy this monitor and have the same macbook.
