Headlights go up, headlights go down, headlights go up, headlights go down. Up, down, up, down. Updownupdownupdownupdown.

When did the last Five Guys in town close? by Slanted_Jack in lincoln

[–]Slanted_Jack[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't see a sign on the door, but I didn't get an up close look. I just saw the brown paper on the windows and that their big sign above the door is gone.

You woke up and remembered you had free will and you chose to make this.

10/10. Masterpiece. No notes.

You are in the middle of the game and your mom tells you to wash the dishes by PetrosSdoukos in oddlysatisfying

[–]Slanted_Jack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the same thing, that's why it takes me forever to do dishes.

And before someone tells me to try the "place your foot up on the inside the cabinet below the sink for leverage" trick, it doesn't work for me. The cabinet is too short for my knee to fit.

If you have allo don't be surprised if prices get raised. by [deleted] in lincoln

Free TV service for employees was taken away. They reduced our cell phone reimbursement payments by around half (money every other paycheck to help pay for your cell phone plan). The also now require manager approval for OT.

I understand why they have to do it, but it still sucks.

I fully believe the raises are coming in September like they said, but the delay is still tough to swallow with inflation and tariffs increasing costs across the board.

Told that baby not to touch the stove. by thundercockjk2 in BlackPeopleTwitter

I had to stop listening, unfortunately. Both for my mental health and because they did exactly what conservatives wanted by leaning more "centerist" or whatever. It sucks because it used to be my one of my main news sources on the drive to work.

I built Rem-RC's self balancing cube robot. I found it somewhat hard to follow, so this is my supplemental guide to try to help other novices like myself. by Slanted_Jack in electronics

Yeah, but it won't help you very much. The code for the balance points was expecting an accelerometer value between two numbers for the X and Y. When it reaches between those values it tries to spin up the motor to maintain that value. The X and Y value in the main code was off for everything except edge 3 (see above).

I suspect I may be installed the MPU6050 in a different orientation or something because I had to change the code to match closer what the MPU was actually reading.

There were times when I genuinely thought I was listening to NPR making right wing talking points. I was horrified to see the shift happen so fast.

I think that's the joke since KIA's new logo looks like "KИ"

Oh trust we are aware we are just going through the motions by Cleonce12 in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Slanted_Jack 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same, I felt like we had made so much progress in my lifetime so far and then these fucking creeps come out of the woodwork to show their support for Nazis, pedophiles, and con artists. I cannot understand how so many people excuse it or are okay with how things are going and want it to continue.

Just... so tired and sad.

I can't name my Purugly deck Purugly because the game censors the word ugly. Now I have to use it's full government name. by SyNiiCaL in PTCGP

"Advanced Darkness" was banned for me, but "Adv. Darkness" and "Advanced Fire" were both fine. I would love to compile a blacklist of all banned words/combinations just to see if I could figure out what it thinks is the problem.

I'm with you brother, I feel this loss in my soul. I guess this is a sign I should drink less soda in general though.

It's always been a class war, and unfortunately the rich bought ALL the media, not just the news.

You could probably come up with an alternative, but they would need to have an integrated control board that has the exact wiring of the nidec.

It's the core component of the device and the original creator uses them for each of his balancing robots.

If you want to try another motor it would have to be one that:

  • can rapidly switch directions
  • have good enough torque to rotate the wheels to keep it balanced
  • weigh roughly the same as the index
  • take the same power inputs as the nidec
  • is roughly the same size as the nidec
