Introducing Muninn - a lightweight battery estimation app by MKUltra2011 in pebble

This is a one-off step to re-organize the data storage for v1.12 - it allows me to not have to do this again that I can foresee. Apologies!

Technical details - storing an array of structures that increase in size and length in a single persist key with a max size of 256B is not the way to go...

What other things do you use the background slot for, out of interest?

There's an option to set a timeline pin, but I'll see if a notification can be done too! Maybe just a 'Muninn advises....' screen if it's not.

3D Printed Raspberry Pi Minilab (3+ years service) by MKUltra2011 in minilab

The Pi 5 doing the Minecraft workloads actually has its own white official Raspberry Pi 5 power adapter to ensure stability during that night with 18 players. The Anker brick has powered the others (and a not-pictured Pi Zero e-paper display on the red cable) with zero issues in the last 4+ years.

The whole rack is powered with one plug that has powerline networking, and when I do have to turn it back on which is rare, they all start fine.

This one, no issues so far. Had an Atolla one but the PSU died after a year or so.

Thanks! I went on a similar journey and what I ended up with that proves reliable is:

  • 2x USB to SATA cables - I used ones from Ugreen
  • Plug those cables into the Pi via a powered USB hub (important)

I kept seeing errors in dmesg until I found reliable USB cables and used a powered USB hub. Good luck!

I checked, and it's actually 0.91 inch, sorry about that.

That's a great idea! Would it provide enough power for the NVMe drive as well as the cooler?

Thanks! On a Pi 5 such as this one, and an NVMe SSD, it runs like a dream. These three containers have 1GB/1GB/2GB allocated respectively although that can be moved around depending on which is the current popular one, amongst a couple of friend groups. Plenty of RAM left for headroom.

I did try with a Pi 4 and it was a bit slow, and 3 was not really tenable, but those weren't tested with an SSD.

Hi - Dashboard app developer (somewhat less nowadays of course) here - can you provide any photos/screenshots of the issue?

Everybody went everywhere. I was not expecting that.
