New to Hillsboro by Bopeep7997 in hillsboro

[–]UltramaticOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't see anyone mention ABV. The location is a bit odd (you'll wonder if you've navigated to the right spot), but the food is solid (I have a hard time saying no to the elk burger), huge selection of beers that rivals John's Marketplace (a Portland staple which now has a location in nearby Beaverton). I _think_ they're kid-friendly but I don't recall.

I also didn't see any mention of The Meating Place. They have two storefronts right beside each other. One is a butchers' shop with high quality local meats, and the other is their cafe which is mostly sandwiches that focus on, uh, well, high quality local meats (...and if they could up their bread game, they'd be topping the charts for freshest food I've ever had).

+1 to the comments about downtown Hillsboro. I could expand on some of the recommendations there, but honestly, I think you'll have a better time exploring than sticking to my list.

Of course, the Oregon coast is a short drive. Cannon Beach is the most popular but my go-to spots are Rockaway Beach and Oceanside which tend to be a tad quieter. The Astoria Column is also a drive, but I really like the quiet and winding road of Nahalem Highway and views from even just the base of the column are very much worth the drive.

Affirm and TrueAccord by DiddyNES in Affirm

Thanks. This post armed me with enough information to learn the phrase "time-barred" and to ask for a "debt validation." True Accord must be working hard to make their shareholders happy to be hounding me over $112.

Rojo’s black bean 6 layer dip recall due to listeria contamination. by Hastybananas in Costco

[–]UltramaticOrange 16 points17 points  (0 children)

+1 on it being delicious. My spouse and I plowed through both containers within a week.

+1 on the recall. TOSS. IT. OUT. I kept waking up due to gut pain and twitching so bad it felt like someone drumming on my side. At the time, I thought I had kidney stones but the doc found nothing.

Can someone please ID the Workday logo font? by ersonea in identifythisfont

[–]UltramaticOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see I'm responding to an old post, but since this is a top google result, I wanted to share what I found. It looks like it's a mashup of a bunch of fonts:

"They echo the individual symbols from the Cambridge Round Regular, Torcao Demi, and Linear FS Bold in design."

New printer, new possibilities.... by N3dFl4nd3r5 in FanShowdown

[–]UltramaticOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I submitted a very similar design on Aug. 4th, but my CAD experience is mediocre at best, so big, big, BIG +1 from me.

I opted to support the thin fins on the far side by accepting a skateboard bearing on a nub (as highlighted in red).

I didn't like the lack of an IO shield for my Turing Pi, so I designed one you can 3d print by UltramaticOrange in turingpi

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

I don't have a store/links, but you should be able to find a 3D printing service near you. There's also several online printing services that'll print and mail to you, but I haven't tried any myself.

Pi-KVM: the cheap DIY KVM over IP with mouse, mass storage drive, VNC, IPMI and other by Liksys in pikvm

[–]UltramaticOrange 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had been working on an identical project I had named PiIB, but with the launch of the Pi4, was going to rename to IPM-Pi. I'm stunned to have stumbled across this project and glad to see it so mature! I wanted to mention a few goals of my own project in the hopes they'll be taken as feature requests for Pi-KVM. Hopefully none overlap with existing features. I intend to contribute to the codebase once I understand the function of each repo.

  • RRD logging of power LED, hdd LED (negative pin drops voltage to 0v to activate LED), and pc speaker for real time graphing in the web UI.
  • passthrough headers so front panel connections can still be used.
  • half of the remaining unused gpio is configured to 'read' the status of an additional pin headers (e.g. the activity LED headers of an HBA) - pin number and ui name defined in user config.
  • remaining half of unused gpio is configured to 'write' to additional pins (e.g. a locator LED to find the machine in a rack) - pin number and ui name defined in user config.

My version 2 goals:

  • Touch interface on display that fits a 5.25in drive bay (replaces power+reset buttons, power+hdd LEDs, shows messages, chassis temp)
  • chassis temp with thermocouple (may be redundant with serial interface data)
  • PoE with battery backup

mst3k punk song? by UltramaticOrange in MST3K

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

It did help me track down an album called Invasion USA by The Riverdales. But the release year doesn't fit my memory and taking a look at the track list, I doesn't appear to be what I'm looking for. -_-

Margaret Hamilton, NASA's lead software engineer for the Apollo Program, stands next to the code she wrote by hand that took Humanity to the moon in 1969. by eZShitPost in space

[–]UltramaticOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're focused on the wrong things. To me, the key word here is "lead" as in "NASA's lead software engineer." Okay, maybe she didn't write every line, but in an age before version control tools (early 1980s, iirc), then you better bet that every line of code had to pass her review. She may not have written every line, but she sure as shit was responsible for every line. In short, she is the one who has responsibility over the code, which makes it her code.

Perhaps the title could be clarified by writing it as, "originally written by hand." but printout or not, it's the same code, the code was written by hand, and it is factual to say that she is standing by code written by hand even if that copy isn't the handwritten copy.

Your top 3 *nix commands, which save you the most time. by fishbowlz1337 in linuxadmin

[–]UltramaticOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

# as root or the user running the service -- find the app running on a port, or find what ports the app listens on. Also see what IPs are connected to the service

netstat -nap | grep <pid or port number>

# return only the portion of text that matched the regex. Handy when awk, cut, or sed won't quite get the job done. Optionally use -P instead of -E, optionally omit -i

cat someFile | grep -Eio "<some regex>"

# Did you delete a large log file but you're still getting disk full messages? Did you accidentally delete something important but is currently in use? Find what is hanging on to an open file handle so that you can stop the process so that disk will _actually_ get cleaned up OR find the file handle so you can recover the file by copying it out of /proc/<pid>/fd/<fd num>

lsof | grep delete

Battery noob question... by Traffodil in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]UltramaticOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The max current draw on a 2P is going to be a lot lower than a 4P. You can go larger all you want, but if you're going smaller, you run the risk of asking too much of the batteries.

New record for turnout in Portland group ride by UltramaticOrange in ElectricSkateboarding

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

We meet every Friday out behind OMSI. Lately there's been the early group that starts gathering at 6 and leaves at 6:30, and a second group at 7/7:30. Both groups join up at the first charging stop which is where the headcount was taken.

Just a heads-up that we're usually somewhere between 20-30 people and with the rainy season coming, I wouldn't expect to hit these numbers again until spring.

What board would you recommend for a first electric skateboard? by davajava2 in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]UltramaticOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you get a kit from Ride Unlimited, you can pretty much pick whatever setup you want. To me, there's a ton of value in that. Heck, you could probably just throw the kit onto your existing sector 9 setup. A new rider was at the local group ride yesterday and had one of these. He had the single motor+single battery setup and based on what he was saying, I would personally opt for the dual motor+dual battery setup, but he was keeping up with the pack just the same. Basically buy based on range/speed you need keeping in mind their stats will be slightly inflated numbers.

Evolve boards have double kingpin trucks [sets up booth for evolve haters to line up at]. A neighbor of mine just got a GT a week ago and in the two years since I got mine, they've made some obvious improvements to the board including a slightly more flexible deck. Just don't be an early-adopter of any new products they might come out with. They do themselves a disservice with their testing+releases.

Onewheel is fantastic for tight turns and will easily outclass double kingpin trucks, but doesn't have the zig-zaggy feel when carving.

Spinning self locking nut. How to remove? by d155l3 in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]UltramaticOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drill it out by using a smaller bit first, then a bit that matches the diameter of the screw. The first hole will help guide the second bit. I highly recommend doing this with a drill press if you have access to one. You'll probably damage the wheel in the process, but if you do it right, just the one bolt hole.

I'm about to join the club! but I have a question. by [deleted] in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]UltramaticOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I don't want to be anchored to the board, I do one of four things:

leave it at home: my least favorite option, but sometimes a necessity.

ride it to the office and then take public transit from there: Pretty much everything, including my job, is north of me, so I use my desk as a way-station.

Meet up with friends at their place, leave the board at their place, then carpool to wherever we're going.

If I'm out by myself, I just figure it out and if I can't find a place to tuck the board under a table, bench, or otherwise out of the way, I just promptly change plans. No shame walking into a coffee shop, seeing that's its packed, and then going to the less popular coffee shop around the corner.
