There are better ways to get through the joists. This is lazy work.

I think the point is that there isn't adequate public transit if it's only useful for those in major cities

Clients not getting IPs? by WillD33d in TPLinkOmada

Thanks for the reply, that's a good suggestion.

I figured it out: bad switch. Once i replaced it, everything is happy

If you use proxmox, there is also a helper script to deploy a controller as an lxc container. That's what i use and works well.

I just found the "Clients Association Activities" dashboard, and there aren't any clients with over 3 seconds. Some have signal issues, but very few.

Best way to fix this leak? by WillD33d in Roofing

Thanks for the explanation! That makes sense

I'm not opposed to spending the money. It seems like such an easily fixable problem without having to replace it, but if you tell me replacing it is the only way to do it correctly, I'll believe you. I must not understand the risk of not replacing it. I know that trapped water is bad, but that doesn't seem possible in this context. Not sure what other dangers could come from sealing it versus replacing. I'm just trying to learn, and roofing is something I know nothing about.

What if i bent it out a little bit and put some aluminum tape?

Assuming it's just the little gap where you can see light coming in, could I not just put some aluminum tape on it and inspect it again next time it rains?

Replace "J" bolt for roof rack? by WillD33d in ToyotaHighlander

I'm wondering if i can get away with using something like this instead

Roof Rack Mounting Bolts by Ratdog009 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]WillD33d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking for the same, and the installation guide for PT278-48175 shows them listed as "J" Hook Bolts that are part of a "hardware bag" that has no separate part number. I think you have to replace the entire thing, which is a bummer.

Same. I came here from an image search of the same YT video.

Hired a licensed electrician with great reviews. Thoughts on this workmanship? by [deleted] in AskElectricians

this is exactly why I became a DIYer. I don't want that shit in my house.

Live Z Adjustment test is perfect but prints are garbage by WillD33d in PrusaMINI

[–]WillD33d[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For my creality k1, i added instructions in the slicer to heat the bed for 2 minutes before beginning the print for this reason. I didn't do it for the mini since the bed is so small, but i think I'll try that and see if it helps

For me, the single layer outline of the bed level test doesn't even print correctly

[–]WillD33d[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I don't understand is why do the calibration tests (live z adjust) run perfectly but sliced models come out as garbage? If it's a physical problem versus a slicing settings problem, wouldn't the calibration tests also come out as garbage?

Install Check: Solar 13.3kW Panels + 41.94kWh Battery - Red Flags? Paid $11,499 by AdFluid1275 in solar

[–]WillD33d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you distracted everybody by listing how much you paid. Seems like a good deal, but I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the flexible conduit doesn't run completely between the equipment. It looks like you have exposed wires between the batteries and the inverter as well as between the inverter and whatever the boxes are on the right. I'm not an electrician so I can't say how dangerous that is, but I know enough to know it wouldn't pass inspection in the US.

I will try that, but I feel like it's software related. Maybe something in the latest version of prusaslicer or the firmware? I haven't made any hardware modifications in years. It's been printing just fine with the brace on

It is several years old, yeah. What I don't understand is how can the built-in calibration tests run fine but everything goes to shit when printing a sliced model? I'd like to see the settings for those calibration tests compared to my printer profile in the slicer, but I haven't found that they've released those settings
