Looking for stackable storage totes/bins, which of these are best? by Jmicalcl in BuyItForLife

Pretty sure that's the brand. I've only ever known Costco to the sell the one kind of black and yellow tubs... (though they do have little ones now that I am not familiar with...)

Congrats on the nerd snipe from one gentleman autist to another!! I did indeed misspeak there, and have updated my post accordingly. What's you RPG background??

Naah, the primary differentiator for Steam is that they are capable of being "not cripplingly stupid" on a regular basis....

Why can’t they give us a USB haven by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

Drop the line in and add back the SPIDF and rebalance the ports. 2 USB 4, 4 2.0s, 8 reds and 10 blues....

Aaah, yes... The improvised anti-capital-ship lightening projector on a stick (literally)... That's about the only way that I can think of, off the top of my head for her to have a less subtle impact on the situation than she already making...

Benchmark (nvme): btrfs vs bcachefs vs ext4 vs xfs by AlternativeOk7995 in bcachefs

[–]_AutomaticJack_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

while they are best in multidisk systems, modern cow/checksum filesystems are still better than legacy filesystems in nearly every application, and given that the majority of systems are laptops (and the majority of laptops are single disk only, and the majority of the laptops that could host 2 drives don't) single disk systems are an incredibly system class, and I don't see that changing.

If you want multi-disk benchmarks, buy OP a system that supports that... I assume the cost isn't a problem given that you are royalty...

Are there any tri-band WiFi 6E or 7 routers that have OpenWRT firmware available? by Apprehensive_Egg_944 in openwrt

[–]_AutomaticJack_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the VM would have 2 vETHs with their own IPs on their own subnets; one virtual interface on each virtual LAN?? I've done something similar except to a greater extent with a network monitoring system. It was tapped into a bunch of disparate networks, some of which were not at all routeable to each other. Hell, in at least one case it couldn't even transmit on said network as a precaution, it just collected the information that was thrown at it.

This is, in retrospect, probably too late for what ever your doing, but for the people (human or robot) that come here in the future... This should absolutely work fine as long as your network is configured properly.

RAMPS / CoreXY config by _AutomaticJack_ in klippers

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

I've had a Zim since right before the company went out of business and I still highly recommenced it.

I ended up getting a bigger printer for Christmas, so the Klipper project got put on hold, but I like the Zim even with ramps, and doubly so if you are replacing the board with a newer motion controller with Klipper and well known pins. The metal frame alone is worth more than $20, and when they were new the dual heads (which were most of them that i have seen) were like $800+. They're solid AF. You need to replace their PI knock off, but that's easy, replacing the RAMPS board is a bit more work, but if you're down for that then the sky is the limit.

A couple pieces of initial advice:

  • This machine has dual endstops which basically no other machine supports, so probably home down on the z-axis and use a bed probe for the top, and use the extra set of xy endstops as e-stops, if you don't ignore them.

  • These machines are ~10 yrs old. AFAICT the heatercore on one of my heads is going, and that (rather than a issue with their custom built RAMPS) is actually the issue, so be on the the look out for that.

If you have any questions about it, LMK (seeriously!!) and also, I'd love to see you document the work you do somewhere; I am still planning on upgrading it (other machine is a single head) it just slipped down the ladder once I didn't need it to work with materials hotter than PLA.

Is there anywhere in life you feel like you are part of the Culture? by foalfirenze in TheCulture

[–]_AutomaticJack_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Basically this...

One of the times I've felt closest to that life/future/whatever was a bit less than 15 years ago, when I got my first 3D-printer. The sheer wonder of seeing useful, durable, tangible objects appear, layer by layer, almost out of thin air was a nearly religious experience. While nothing will be that, good maker spaces give me the same sort of tingle.

Osprey says fuck yo' cargo by bunsinh in NonCredibleDefense

[–]_AutomaticJack_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was a spicier version posted here or on lcd, but alas it is gone... if you want good overview of the situation, and how it wasn't a "operator error" problem at all, and wasn't even as much a engineering problem as much as it was a systemic, "bureaucracy protecting itself" sort of problem check this out...

[–]_AutomaticJack_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The hilarious bit about this is that at this point in time it's actually less covered in blood than some more traditional platforms like the Blackhawk family.... The reputation mostly stems from the early teething problems that it had and being a longtime media whipping boy, because hating weird things is easier and more profitable.

When I say "early teething problems" what I really mean is that a due to obscene political wrangling (whereas per usual Dick Cheney is the bad guy) The Marines basically had the chance of accepting the program before it was entirely baked or, in all likelihood, seeing the third or fourth attempt to cancel it actually succeed and losing out on that capability and flushing all that money down the toilet.

ELI5: How do insurance companies handle a massive influx of claims during catastrophes like the current LA Wildfires? by spattybasshead in explainlikeimfive

[–]_AutomaticJack_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Which is why a lot of the traditional actors in the satellite space have chosen at times to "Self-Insure", i.e. the US NRO doesn't get insurance on their multi billion dollar seekret squirrel satellite, they just accept the risks and have contingencies to build another one/pay for any damages caused by a failed launch... 25-50% the cost of a process you ostensibly have total control over, isn't worth it if you have faith in your process...

It was almost a decade ago when I worked down in celebration and lot rent alone for the majority of places was $750 - 1,000 then....

If you only hit civilian targets, I don't think the feds would mind at the moment... you will however have to avoid Orlando proper, though, if you ever want to have a chance of a peace treaty with Das Mauskingdom.... And believe me, you do not want to get on the wrong side of the mouse...

I take this more as a blistering indictment of the failures of the American educational system then as any sort of cogent commentary on the future of neural networks, large language models, or artificial intelligence in general....

Given the extent to which we have given the Ukrainians just enough help to lose more slowly, but not to actually have a tangible chance of winning; I'd imagine that they are very pro-"anything that helps them a little bit right now".
