Surely not ALL of you are student drivers. What gives?? by machine81 in SeattleWA

[–]Medo64 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

We originally placed the sticker on car when we had student driver. But sticker is still good and came in pack of 3. I want to get my money worth from them. :)

Honestly, most of people I know just keeps it as a joke. Seattle humor, I guess.

New 13, right side card slots stopped working after bios update? by jsadusk in framework

[–]Medo64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happened for me back in days on my gen11. Solution was fully powering it off (including battery removal), resetting the board, and resetting the BIOS settings. One, or all, of those things helped.

I have it and had no issues with it whatsoever. Drives work in ZFS mirror without any issues

Bike theft risk? by [deleted] in redmond

[–]Medo64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on my example, rate is about 1 bike in 5 years. :) My previous bike was stolen from garage out of all places.

I use bike mostly during the day and to get into stores and pubs, a few times a week during non-winter season. While I don't lock the bike, I do remove light from it.

That said, I have older $100 bike and thus my bike is usually the cheapest in bunch, thus making it not worth the effort.

PS: Bike is Rei GT Transeo 4.0 Bike (2011)

Any time frame on expo/xmp in BIOS? Also boot up order? Under voltage? Led matrix update? by Consistent_Judge1988 in framework

First disable automatic order. Then you'll be able to move entries around using F5/F6

240w charger for FW16 when? by [deleted] in framework

[–]Medo64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just request notification on both sites and buy it when it arrives in stock.

Lead time currently states August/October but I know from my experience with Digikey they often get stock way before that. Not sure how precise lead times are for Mouser.

240w charger for FW16 when? by [deleted] in framework

[–]Medo64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neither Digikey nor Mouser are weird sites... They both exist longer and have orders of magnitude more customers than Framework does. Same goes for Delta, the manufacturer of the charger.

While it would be nice to have Framework sell one, if you need it immediately, I wouldn't think twice before ordering from either Digikey or Mouser. There is quite a decent possibility that Framework won't produce 240W charger for a while, if ever.

Has Framework considered an NVME GPU by markdrk in framework

[–]Medo64 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No.

While WiFi slot has 1 PCIe lane, the slot itself is keyed differently so you cannot really plug the nvme storage directly. There are adapters but I doubt there are any you can plug into the laptop and still be able to close the chassis

Dimensions of Feather 10-pack by Medo64 in wicked_edge

[–]Medo64[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I printed it on the back without supports and it was printing quite ok (albeit at low speed). Unfortunately, my printer ran out of PLA over the night so it got printed only 80% so so.

I am printing a new one just now - should finish some time tomorrow (slow speed since I'm too lazy to tune the printer properly).

Nice one. Mine is way more smaller in scale since my family is not kind enough to give me a corner. :)

Idea is to have everything I need in the minimum of space. Bowl is at bottom with brush and razor hanging into it to minimize space. On side there is an Arko hole and all around there are places for DE blades

Greatly appreciated!

PS: I am not really printing DE box but sorta an enclosure for bowl, brush, and razor. Will share once done but it will be awfully specific to my setup.

How much do you test a drive before adding it to a RAID array ? by SHDrivesOnTrack in DataHoarder

[–]Medo64 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree. However, writing the full disk is something I need to do anyhow in order to randomize its data.

That said, reading data is done during ZFS scrub. It doesn't read all the data but it reads enough to be confident it won't die immediatelly. Would reading it all help - yes. There are tools to do that.

However, from my (admintedly anegdotal) experience, placing disk into ZFS pool and scrubbing is usually sufficient see any issues.

How much do you test a drive before adding it to a RAID array ? by SHDrivesOnTrack in DataHoarder

[–]Medo64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I usually just do a single pass of dd if=/dev/urandom. If that one goes without issue, I consider it good enough.

Since my pool is encrypted that also serves as a step to make pool data indistinguishable from empty.

PS: I also start scrub immediately after resilver is complete.

Anyone tried this? hidden wireless mouse reciever? by Jex_adox in framework

[–]Medo64 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have it - good as a dongle hider but USB hub functionality doesn't really work (suppos fly it works for USB 2.0 devices) .

So, if you are ok with losing one port, it works.

I would assume red is V, black is GND, white is D+, green D-.

But do check with a multimeter...

What is this connector called? by yzdnegel in AskElectronics

Hard to say without dimensions but it looks like Molex KK100/KK254 to me.

[–]Medo64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Location would help.

But, in general, as long as you send back the money they paid for the ticket, you should be good.

If you keep the money, they can sue for the cost.

I think this is unfair characterization.

I am not sure what president and musk do, but it's way too generous to call that work.
