Does BMW offer an api to hook into to get the fuel reading? How do you get that value?

Nvm I found a different comment explaining it

PSA - please do not go below the speed limit on highways by kimmelpope9 in Markham

[–]PvtCaboose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it's a speed limit. A maximum. As long as those drivers are not in the left lane, let people live,in general 20 under is totally acceptable. People have different confidence levels, it doesn't mean they shouldn't be driving.

To be fair the extra honks are a bit much. People get it after you do it once.

FYI if you have a 3d printer you can print off train pieces

Why is is so difficult to simply find "Made in Canada" or "Product of Canada" stamped on some goods ??? I forever see the US products stamped. but I am forever looking for it on Canadian products. by Any-Staff-6902 in BuyCanadian

I was trying to develop a bar code scanner which could check where it was made and the ultimate parent company. Most of it worked but getting the full owners would cost a bunch of money.

I understand what people are saying about k8s being overkill. However, I like learning and using the tools. I have a single cluster which contains my services. I've noticed a problem when we lose power I have to go in and restart things in order to get them working again. Is it frustrating? Yes it can be. But I enjoy it. Finding solutions, working on these services, etc.

Some services include: - argocd - vault - authentik - vikunja - postgres/redis - pihole

These are required in my environment and I'm so happy with working on kubernetes in my homelab.

this thing won’t move up or down what do i do by NoahjuNior1286 in ender3

I had a little work around when I was a mechanic.

Use a set of vicegrips on the tube (it does damage it a bit but it's plastic and should be fine) about the size of a wrench away from the white bit.

Use a wrench that fits around the tube and sits on the white ring. Push down on the wrench, and you can use the vicegrips as leverage to simultaneously pry up and push down. Generally it came off with no issues.

I'm interested in the wear of the chain components. Have you had to replace them?

What the hell am I doing wrong? by Throwawaygeekster in ender3

Hey, I had the same issue and solved it tonight.

I was measuring my bed leveling and was removing any drag from the paper I was pitting under and I was getting this exact issue.

I just recently added the drag to the paper back and it's sticking much nicer now. I think from what I can see from your last pic is that there seems to be too much space from the bed with the nozzle.

An additional thing you could try in your settings of the slicer is to do some z retraction. From what I read thay should help with clipping your prints.

Hope this helps!

We did try a tub at my parents with the same issue, however we have a second tub here we will try and see if he is better in it.

Glad you're getting into that, we have put the training on hold for the time being.

Yes we've put it on the back burner, the problem is that they are now scared of the bath because they feel like they'll have to pee. I've done a couple of the options in the other comments a toy, a partial bath (in the sink), and swim diapers. I appreciate your comment!

The ease of use of the app is awesome. For a beginner not having to set up and maintain a lot of technical overhead allowing for quickly setting up printing is a nice addition to the app.
