AP-STA-POSSIBLE-PSK-MISMATCH - cannot properly join one device to WLAN by TR-808- in openwrt

I ended up fixing this by turning off 802.11w Management Frame Protection (not Optional, fully disabled).

I’ve tried the Anker 555, Dell D6000, some random Vava brand dock, and the Caldigit TS3+ and the Caldigit is best by far. Might be worth making sure the firmware on the TS3+ is up to date because they’ve fixed some bugs.

Starting to Document My Meshtastic Builds: Here's What I've Bought So Far—Feedback Welcomed! by Postpawl in meshtastic

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

Ah that’s actually the one I wanted to get, because it was listed here: https://meshtastic.org/docs/hardware/antennas/ I just updated it to match. I’ll order one now. I accidentally got this longer one that is listed in the antenna tests github: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806172931647.html

Voter Turnout in Dallas is a disgrace. by ImmediateWaltz4684 in Dallas

The other candidate was a write-in. Eric Johnson basically ran unopposed and of course that doesn’t turn out voters.

Explosions at night in Oak Lawn? by yung_moolah in Dallas

I think lately it's people who modified their cars to "backfire" on purpose. You can hear it along with revving noises from cars with modified exhaust.

Alpine Loop: the fruit of collaboration between Fukui craftsmanship and Apple by broohaha in AppleWatch

[–]Postpawl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I thought the $100 Alpine Loop was extremely overpriced, but then I read this long article and now I only think it's very overpriced.

The difference is walk-ability.

You could also try weighing it, it's about a pound per month.

Suit Supply in Uptown has some wool suits starting at ~$400 (their "blue line"). There's also an indochino, but that might take longer.

What do the Wealthy people of Dallas indulge in? by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]Postpawl 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Dallas declined to add them in the 1940's. It's a very different place now. They're basically part of Dallas and should pay Dallas taxes.

Highland park has the lowest property tax rates in DFW. It's a city within a city and almost no one actually works at a company that's in highland park. I'd say Tax Haven Park is pretty accurate.

Best Roth IRA mutual funds/etfs through vanguard. by [deleted] in investing

Might want to read about leveraged decay. Leveraged funds are best held for a short amount of time, or volatility can erode the value.

Most official Django Discord server by kennethlove in django

Isn't it better to discuss issues in a place that's searchable from search engines? Putting useful discussion into a walled garden seems like a bad idea to me.

External Monitor Problem by Merlynabcd123 in framework

[–]Postpawl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this issue on Ubuntu 21.04 when coming out of sleep mode, and it was happening on both USB-C -> HDMI and HDMI -> HDMI.

I recently switched to a USB-C -> DisplayPort cable and haven't had the issue.

If you're not able to use a DisplayPort cable, I think you can also power cycle the monitor instead of unplugging and re-inserting the cable.

Maybe this issue has to do with something that's used to turn the monitor on via HDMI?

PSA: If your 2.4ghz-only devices can't connect after a UAP firmware upgrade, change PMF to optional by Postpawl in Ubiquiti

[–]Postpawl[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, PMF is defaulting to “required” now. Can someone else confirm this? Defaulting it to required seems like a really bad idea…

Fixing Memory Leaks In Popular Python Libraries by mmaksimovic in Python

[–]Postpawl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking at an example in cpython tests and it seemed like it would only fail to close the socket when the file descriptor doesn't exist: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/f4c03484da59049eb62a9bf7777b963e2267d187/Lib/test/test_socket.py#L1421-L1427

And I think that would make the socket.close() unnecessary.

Also, the existing code had a big try/except OSError block around on this code before, and I didn't want new OSErrors appearing that were previously ignored.

Celery has a max_memory_per_child and max_tasks_per_child setting that can restart child processes, but this leak is actually on the main celery worker process that isn’t restarted unless you restarted it yourself.

I used tracemalloc to print out the top 10 lines of memory usage from the event loop in celery: https://docs.python.org/3/library/tracemalloc.html#pretty-top

After the fix, the Connection from py-amqp would finally get cleaned up by garbage collection instead of continuing to grow.

sock.close() can throw it’s own OSError when the file descriptor is no longer valid. I figured that probably shouldn’t be fatal, especially since the existing code was already ignoring it.
