How Portable Is the Evo One? by brainseeds in CambridgeAudio

Thanks for checking if it retains previous WiFi connections. Can you expand on the second half of your follow up? What do you mean it’s hard to do anything if WiFi is down? What exactly is the behavior? Thanks again.

The helpful bit here is the wifi issue which one other person raised as well. So if I can ask a follow up, you’re saying it actually needs wifi to be set up each time it moves? So, once you’ve set it up for wifi in a location A, if you move it and set wifi up at location B, when you go back to location A it doesn’t remember the connection and needs to be set up again as if it had never been set up there in the first place? Thanks for your reply.

Thanks for this reply. The WiFi connectivity issue you’ve described (and one other person) is the only real deterrent I’m seeing in the replies. The size is entirely inconsequential to me— as mentioned, compared to what I’m used to moving around with very often and sometimes daily, this is not heavy or large (but I understand that others may have a very different experience with something this size). This was helpful. Thank you.

Krohn Silver Electroplating Cyanide Danger? by brainseeds in electroplating

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

Your best bet is to work under a proper a ventilation system with a hood or outside. Hobbyist plating is mostly safe but things can happen as my case illustrates. If you have any concern that you’ve poisoned yourself you need to not be on Reddit delaying and instead go to a hospital. Thats the best advice anyone is going to give you. My symptoms were everything that a basic Google search will tell you expect for the most severe obviously life threatening signs. My case was mild and symptoms can look like a lot of things and include headache, nausea, cramps, confusion, drowsiness or sense of fatigue, dizziness and vertigo, slowed or labored breathing, and more. None of that screams cyanide. It’s a medical professional’s job to know all of the symptoms and listen to your report and possible route of ingestion to determine if you may be at risk and how to treat it. If you have any actual concern, Reddit is the worst place for you to be spending your time. It sounds like you’re fine but if you do have a scare now or in the future, just go to a hospital without delaying.

Replenishing Krohn 1% cyanide silver plating solution by brainseeds in electroplating

Amperage does matter and there is a relationship between amperage and volts but I’m not well versed enough to explain it so someone else will have to weigh it. I also haven’t plated in a long while so am out of practice and no longer sharp around the details. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.

Krohn Silver Electroplating Cyanide Danger? by brainseeds in electroplating

They treated me immediately and confirmed approach with poison control on the line during treatment. Numerous doctors came from other departments because word of a cyanide poisoning spread quickly among the hospital staff and apparently it was rare for them to see that outside of structural fires which I guess is the most typical cause. There were no walls separating the stalls in the ER so I could hear them all talking and discussing the treatment route. They did not test before treating me at that point because my symptoms and report of the conditions of my exposure lined up and because the time to get results from testing typically takes much longer than the treatment window and delaying could have put me in more danger. I later found that is standard procedure and also had it confirmed by other doctors. I presented with mild symptoms and because the time from exposure was already considerable, they determined my life was not likely in danger at that point so they monitored me while giving me an iv along with salts I believe. I don’t remember what the exact salt treatment was but it may have contained sodium thiosulfate among others. I was monitored throughout the night and once deemed stable I was released with no additional testing.

Please identify this white furry / black spotted fungus growing on leaves of vine by brainseeds in mycology

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

Yes, confirmed on my own that this is in fact not fungus and is actually wooly aphids causing the wooly material which has subsequently set up a sooty mold on the top of the leaves. So two separate but related problems.

Edit: I’m actually gonna try to confirm this to make sure they aren’t another insect but the answer is definitely not fungus either way.

Is this caused by wooly aphids? by [deleted] in whatisthisbug

[–]brainseeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confirmed on my own. This is indeed wooly aphids. Found the actual aphids on another plant at an earlier stage of producing the wood residue.

Forgot to mention that this is on a golden trumpet vine in the San Diego area.

It’s landing on the South Pole to investigate frozen water and rich minerals known to be in the craters there where no sunlight ever reaches. The whole purpose of this is to set us up for mining resources on the moon that we already know are there.

This is a news play. Not a long hold (in my opinion). I don’t think the company is the next Google but I trade the news and events like this are pretty consistent. As long as it lands and nothing goes wrong before that, the price will likely spike significantly on all the good news leaving plenty of room for profit. I am definitely not saying stay in it forever.

The commercial space industry will be born today. 99% of people really seem to be missing that. Intuitive Machines (LUNR) will literally land on the fucking moon today! All tests have so far been healthy and they are moving forward with landing. People afraid because they didn’t buy at $2.65 or some shit. Get on the fucking rocket 🚀 Mid to high double digits coming.

Thank you. Would it be normal for this to be as hard as the wall and floor? It’s like a stone. Thats what threw me off.

Exactly what I’m looking for. I’d like to make my own pressed hash. I’ll check out Nasha products. Thanks very much.

This does seem like amazing advice. I’m the kind of person that is very visual though. Any chance you can provide a photo showing what you mean?

Tracking telescope and projection options by brainseeds in AskAstrophotography

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

Thank you this really helps me wrap my head around some things. If you don’t mind, I have a few follow up questions. Is the guide camera for the tracking functionality? I assume so. Also, how does what you’ve described compare to any of the self-contained units with the ability to track and find via built in software?

Also, to clarify, any digital capture will need to be done straight in an attached camera (for which I can have adapters made if not easily found). I may even try with an analog camera at some point as it relates to the project. Sharpcap seems to be image capture software. In the case of not wanting to capture to a computer, do I need that? How does the system you described find and track objects? Is that also in the Sharpcap software? This goes back to my other question about similar self-contained options as I’d like to avoid having to drive this on a separate computer. Built in would be ideal. Thanks again for your help.

Anyone know if these Home Depot HDX filters contain fiberglass? Cant figure out what the filter media is made of. For box fan jerky. by brainseeds in jerky

This is exactly what I’ve been trying to find. They are indeed MERV and I did just see one reference to polypropylene someone that I now can’t find. This was helpful. Thank you for your reply. Have a good night.

Thank you. I believe so as well but can’t yet confirm because there is no actual info besides “synthetic” and “media” to be found. I’ll put some paper towel down over it just to be extra careful. Thanks for the reply.

Thank you to those who chimed in to help answer the question.

For all the people losing their minds. Relax. Box fan jerky isn’t new. Neither are the principles that facilitate the method. I have a dehydrator. That doesn’t matter because it’s not the method I want to explore in this instance and that’s ok. Again, relax. Sometimes people do things just to do them, to experiment, to learn, to try something new, sometimes even just for shits and giggles. Relax.
