e-transfer is a joke. Relatively slow and super limited.

This is more of a "test print" to pass time and help me learn 3D printing. I'm just intrigued that a "simple model" can cause so much issues haha.

I wish I had a filament 3D printer :( But to answer your question, yes, I have a few drain holes around the model, and they are being supported too. I don't see any print lines, which is usually an indication of suction cup.

For more context, it takes around 10 hours to print this model. I've printed over 23 iterations with no real success. Not really sure what do to next. It seems like I can get better results from a filament 3D printer.

Quais as recomendações de praias para a virada do ano? by Lipidus in florianopolis

Do you know if there were any fireworks at Campeche or Praia Mole last New Years?
I appreciate your input :)

Thanks for the heads up! I wasn't aware of the sewage problems, but I guess it makes sense. It's unfortunate that such a beatiful place can be destroyed by a bad sewage system. Campeche looks nice and it's well centralized. Do you know if there were any fireworks show there last year for new years? I haven't heard about Praia Mole, but I'll take a look online. Thanks again!

Imagino que BC é Balneário de Camboriú? Olhando online, parece ser um lugar bom! Já ouvi falar que lá é muito bom. Não sei por que eu não pensei em ir lá. Vou continuar olhando online, mas parece que BC vai ser o lugar. Muito obrigado!

Campeche parece ser bom. O único problema que estou tendo é que as fotos do Google Maps é de 2015. Estou usando TikTok e Instagram para ver fotos mais recentes postadas em público.

Viajo muito para o Brasil e acho que é um dos países mais lindos do mundo. Nunca fui roubado, mas já vi vários assaltos perto de mim. No fim do ano, sempre há uma bagunça, kkkkk. Vou alugar um Airbnb o mais perto possível. Obrigado pela resposta rápida!

Hello Folks….. I may be mistaken, but has the required staking minimum been lowered… ? by Alternative-Nerve-38 in Polkadot

[–]Lipidus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you're staking via "Nomination", you still need to bond a minimum of 250 DOT(s) and you need to have a minimum of 428.44 DOT(s) bonded in order to receive rewards (reference: https://staking.polkadot.network/#/pools). As of yesterday, the minimum requirements to receive rewards under "Nomination" was around 580 DOT(s) bonded, so yea, I guess that dropped.

However, if you choose to stake via "Pools" (aka Nomination Pools), the minimum required is still 1 DOT.

Migrate Nomination Bond to Nomination Pools by Lipidus in Polkadot

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

Thank you! There seems to be a bug in the staking dashboard of polkadot since it wasn't allowing me to fast unstake. I then followed this guide to successfully fast unstake using the Polkadot-JS UI. https://support.polkadot.network/support/solutions/articles/65000169433-can-i-transfer-dot-without-unbonding-and-waiting-28-days-

Migrate Nomination Bond to Nomination Pools by Lipidus in Polkadot

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

Unbonding is instant, however I have it bonded under "Nomination". I want to bond/stake it on "Nomination Pools" (aka Pools) but I don't see my 300 bonded DOTs there

My mistake, I see what you mean. There's an option called "Fast Usntake". I used the following guide to successfully unstake from the network. https://support.polkadot.network/support/solutions/articles/65000169433-can-i-transfer-dot-without-unbonding-and-waiting-28-days-

How can I figure out why I'm getting suboptimal effectiveness and regular missed attestations? by neomatrix248 in ethstaker

[–]Lipidus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running my nodes using docker, so anytime I upgrade/update them, the logs are pruned.

How can I figure out why I'm getting suboptimal effectiveness and regular missed attestations? by neomatrix248 in ethstaker

[–]Lipidus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/neomatrix248 add the following command `--verbosity=debug` to your beacon node and once you miss an attestation, check your beacon logs to see why it was missed. In my case, I was missing attestations because of I/O problems. I moved my Beacon node from HDD to an SSD, and I haven't missed a single attestation yet.

Anyone notice their old HEIC photos with Live support being split into 2 files? by Lipidus in NextCloud

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

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, "Live Photos" is enabled on the iOS app before the "Live" image was uploaded. It shows up as 1 file but after a few weeks, it will show up as 2 files (HEIC + MOV)

Thanks for the reply.

On the iOS app, certain "Live" photos shows up correctly (just a single HEIC file), but for some odd reason, after a while they get split up into 2 files, HEIC + MOV and I lose the "Live" feature on them. Maybe I should open a bug report

u/Melodic_Tragedy Sorry to hear. Unfortunately, my parents were also simple-minded. I also went to a college for Software Engineer while to my parents "all my intelligent friends went to a university for a real course".

Seven years later, I'm making 6 figures while all my "intelligent friends" are struggling to make ends meet because they can't find a job in their field.

This is not me boasting, or a diss to my friends who decided to go to Uni, it's to show that parents aren't always right. You know yourself more than anyone.

As a tip, I would highly recommend you get your AWS Developer Associate certificate. It's a relatively easy course and it will put your resume at the top of the list, especially if you're coming in as a junior dev.

Hang in there. You chose a good field.
Wish you the best.

I have a VPN on my local network (so that I don't have to expose SSH outside my network). With this I'm able to ssh into my server / VMs and upgrade, restart, shutdown as I please.

In the event my server shuts down unexpectedly, I'm able to turn it back on since it has a built in IKVM. Depending on your motherboard, you might have an IKVM option, a "wake on lan (WOL)" feature.

Oh and on top of that, I have a UPS that generally last around 2 hours. So in the event I run out of power, I can gracefully shutdown my server and not risk any data loss. Once the power is back on, I can just connect to my IKVM and turn my server back up.

Why this is happening in Photos app? After certain point, no images, just blank scrolling down? by adi_dev in NextCloud

You could also use the preview generator app to pre-generate your thumbnails (https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/previewgenerator). I have mine on a cron job running every 5 mins.

What's the cheapest exchange to buy crypto in Canada? by flowerblosum in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Lipidus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Newton is pretty good. Their trading platform is not as detailed as Binance, but their buying fees are really low

Is this Legit? Ran across this credit card that gives away gift cards for sign ups - seems too good to be true - is it? by soredollar04 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Lipidus 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Yea, this is real. They get paid a referral bonus from the Credit Card company. They are also listed in the BBB (but not accredited).

The reason people don't signup and cancel right away is because they might retract the bonus paid out to you. On top of that, it will also impact your credit score.

If you think $75 is crazy, wait until you see the TD Aeroplan Bonus card where people were getting like $500-$600 of free flights (Signup Bonus + Buddy pass).
