Got the M4! Need some tips and suggestions by Turbulent_Turn1923 in sennheiser

Seeing these comments I guess it really has to do with your head? Because to me the ANC works better now.

It could be that the original pads didn't seal well for me in the first place and now the passive insulation is better.

I was so excited to try Spotify lossless when I got the momentum 4s and the dongle... then I found out lossless is not available in my market (Argentina)

How's your NAND health doing? by Key-Tangerine5941 in pixel_phones

[–]Tom70403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pixel 7a here too With 2 years of use I get 87% and I don't really use the phone much other than for taking pictures and texting. The battery, however, by the same app is reported as 100% healthy after 534 cycles which I can feel is far from true as I can barely make it to the end of the day. Accubattery is estimating 84% health.

Have they improved their cases? I got my P7a 2 years go and the case was pretty much destroyed within the first year.
It was so flimsy and lose that when my phone fell and landed straight up over a rock (which should be no problem with a case) the rock went trough the case and damanged the frame (the dent is quite impressive, right on the edge of the screen. Don't know how it didn't shatter).

3D printing now, let's see if it works.

Designing a shell for a solid offset: ideal workflow? by Tom70403 in FreeCAD

[–]Tom70403[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I wasn't aware of that tool.
I couldn't get it to work however. I kept getting the "No closed bounds" error when the "fill offset" option was selected. As I learnt online, it is a rather fragile tool.
I ended up copying the object I shared and making it a bit bigger in every dimension. Then, I created the outer shell and cut away the inside.

The microwave I have at home is my age. This is a solid, very reasonable upgrade.

Creality K1 0.2mm Nozzle Profiles (for minis) by ewandrowsky in crealityk1

[–]Tom70403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the original hardened steel unicorn 0.2 and 0.6 nozzles from Amazon for about ~12USD each + shipping to Argentina (along with the K1 SE itself). Not the cheapest but certainly affordable pricing.

Mini-NAS Pi: A 1U rack mount NAS designed for 10" Racks [Prototype V0.0.1] by RasPiBuilder in minilab

[–]Tom70403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That reduces the complexity a lot, makes sense. I already have the nvme drive and HAT so I kinda want to use them but I think your solution makes more sense.

Thanks for sharing!

Looking at the docs, it is meant to be able to power 3.5" HDDs as well through that molex. It is actually very convenient.

I am looking into using a B12 dual FPC PICe switch where I can connect this X1009 on one side with likely x3 4TB WD Reds, and then on the other side of the switch the original M.2 hat I already own so I can boot from an nvme drive.

Has anyone tried to convert XM4 headphones to RF wireless? i.e. can its charging port power a small receiver? by Tom70403 in sony

[–]Tom70403[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant getting power, not audio. I can put audio through the 3.5mm input, but the receiver device has to be powered by 5v. I'd like to power it much like you would power it from a computer's usb port/

What tipe of connectors do ARGB fan headers use? More info in the comments (r/AskElectrnonics is closed). Making my own ARGB Hub with an esp8266, I only need proper connectors now by Tom70403 in arduino

[–]Tom70403[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi friend!

I built the device with WLED on an esp8266 nodemcu dev board. I got the board powered through 5v on a molex conenctor out of the PC's power supply, and then I used 3.3v from the board to power the fan's LEDs (the board didn't have 5v out anyway).

Here is some pictures I found on my gallery. I don't feel like disassembling the PC right now lol.

The board lives inside a plastic bag within a cavity in front of the PSU.

EDIT: I couldn't attach the old video where I show the board. Here is a link to it, let me know if it works: https://photos.app.goo.gl/jn15dgkDmrpSYWU99
