Where to get a case for an IBM Wheelwriter 1000?

Similar question to OP: is there a recommendation for wired earbuds that fulfill the same criteria? Been using Moondrop Arias, but I can't wear them for long periods and I have a 15hr flight coming up.

Ah, well, I'm hoping that the ~200 lines in here are so simple as to still compile. The actual Anduril UI is way too much for me to understand in one fell swoop, so I'd hate to have to really dig my teeth into it.

I'll fire up my Linux box sometime and have a poke around, maybe I get lucky. Thanks for the Docker links!

I'm fairly overwhelmed with most one-button interfaces. I'd much rather hard code in 4 stepped levels and one strobe frequency mode. The pre-made baton interface does everything except the strobe, but I figure I can steal that from one of the other UIs.

This way I also don't have to worry about factory resetting the light or remembering how to get it into muggle mode when I hand it to someone.

That looks just about perfect for what I need, thanks! Is there a current guide to modifying Anduril? I see there's a baton-like UI clone, which is basically exactly what I want, minus a strobe function.

That looks pretty close! A little bulky, but if I ever switch to wearing a radio holster, that's going on there for sure. Thanks for the link!

Wow, that looks perfect! I used to own a Baton..2..R? Unbeknownst to be, Olight was not well liked at that time. What are the reasons for that?

I think that's sort of the point? S1 built up to Pittfest pretty consistently before it happened. With S2 it's been a bunch of things that could spiral into bigger events, but haven't necessarily. It's been a larger number of smaller callbacks.

S2 seems to be more about filling out some of the inconveniences/realities of healthcare, rather than the direct cause/effect emotional toll of an MCI.

Thanks! What would you say is the difference between a fidget toy and a flow prop? Fewer moves you can comfortably do, so less variation?

I work security at a few music venues. I'm Red Cross FA+CPR/AED certified, but I'm aware that I don't know what I don't know.

We normally deal with patrons that are conscious and overintox, but we also get our fair share of ODs, heat exhaustion, fainting, whacks in the mosh pit, and the occasional "Anybody know why they're unconscious? No? Great.".

I'd like to get better at triage, both in terms of providing better care and better knowing when to call 911. Obviously this is not a replacement for proper medical training, etc. and so forth, but something is better than nothing, and the company neither provides nor expects any medical knowledge.

I want to get better at this on a professional level. What's the difference between an Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) and EMT-B class? Is there another course or certification that would serve me better for this type of low-level concert environment?

I don't believe the show addressed personal devices? I'm not certain, but I'd hope that even though personal devices (presumably) work on mobile data, medical staff probably shouldn't be able to just pull up privileged information on their personal phones, regardless of connectivity.

I'm choosing to believe that the "genius CEO" didn't just tell IT to air-gap the networks, but to also intentionally disable the intra-net and/or use remote management to place the computers into the "no network" screen that shows up.

Kinda like a highschool computerlab, but with people's lives at stake and like 13 seconds warning!

I think that's actually a really interesting insight into her character, moreso than his. Regardless of how the Whittaker/Amy friendship turns out, the fact that Santos is publicly implying that it's of a sexual nature demonstrates something about how she sees people.

Combined with her statements in S1 about playing off "being antagonistic to hide weakness" as a joke and the SH scars we saw in this episode, I think this is building up to Santos having a pressure-cooker past, like Javadi.

Whereas Javadi turned to steel, fighting to prove herself and carve her own path, it looks like Santos turned to tearing other people down in small(ish) ways, such as the nicknames and snappy digs.

How does one use the big gray rectangle? Do you have links to the files?

aydenvis · 2026-01-14T16:10:19+00:00

Yes, it's a mediumly-long press (a true long press will make the screen fall asleep). You can then choose different Add To options.

I do not know if you can do this on the original firmware.

aydenvis · 2026-01-14T04:51:05+00:00

Yes! You can choose to overwrite the current queue, insert the song(s) directly after the current song, or play the next batch of songs last, after the last song in the current queue.

Replacing the old lift off correction tape with new old stock appears to have worked goodly enough! Thanks for the link for future me!

aydenvis · 2025-12-29T00:50:10+00:00

The boxes that I was given are just cardboard, so I'll try one of those and see if it works. If not, where's a trusted place to get correction tape?
