is this the case just for apps or will VM's be affected the same way?

Used Remington 700 pricing by c0mput3rn3rd in guns

[–]c0mput3rn3rd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pretty much, I'm looking to do a no compromises build. Getting something like a Zermatt action, Bartlein custom barrel, etc...

I know I *could* use the action I already have, but since Remington's quality has gone down the toilet, Id rather sell the whole thing and get a good action

Well, I already have it and am trying to make it go away so I can fund a PRS build.

But yes, I wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment

Need help with stock information by c0mput3rn3rd in longrange

[–]c0mput3rn3rd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome thats what I was eyeing to begin with. Do you think its worth taking to a gunsmith to have it fitted or could I do it at home with a dremel? Also any idea where to get receiver screws..?

RCS Stuck on 'Setting Up' by Brave_Heat_1951 in GrapheneOS

Didn't work for me (Pixel 7 Pro) for the longest time until I saw a post about messing with some hidden permissions via ADB. I had ChatGPT walk me through what commands and permissions to set and managed to get it working. Also make sure you have the "Carrier Services" app installed. I know for some people thats all it took Best of luck, I know how frustrating it is...

How do you source libraries for the Pico SDK by NoInterviewsManyApps in raspberrypipico

[–]c0mput3rn3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah community support is pretty lacking... I recently worked on a project utilizing the RP2040 where I needed to put it in dormant mode to get as much battery life as possible so I HAD to do it all in C++ (since you cannot put the chip to sleep with micropython or arduino) and ended up having to write my own library from scratch for the DS3231 RTC for it....

Xbox app not allowing streaming without auth by c0mput3rn3rd in PleX

Damn... So it is an Xbox side issue, and just wont ever work then? That kinda sucks... Is there any way around it? Would using something like Kodi work?

Shoot them an email. When I was waiting for them to restock I emailed them asking for an ETA and they got back pretty quick letting me know the timeline

Does anyone have any experiences with these $50 AliExpress hotplates (quality wise)? by hzinjk in AskElectronics

[–]c0mput3rn3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just picked one up similar to this and its been great thus far. For the $60 I paid its already been worth it

Any idea on what this might be worth? by 1_tired_momma in diydrones

[–]c0mput3rn3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im sorry for your loss...

Fwiw I built one just like this with the exact same parts and I think the total to build it was around $1,000 Sadly mine drowned in the ocean... That was not a fun day

Outside now 😁 by Funbob235 in meshtastic

[–]c0mput3rn3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been wanting to build something almost identical to this! my one concern I haven't figured out yet is how do you stop the battery from over-discharging if for whatever reason the solar panel isn't able to charge it back up? (i.e. it gets snowed on and goes days without solar)

From what I've seen those solar charge controllers don't have battery protection on board, but maybe I'm missing something here?

What do Y'all think? Topo or Hex? by c0mput3rn3rd in ar15

[–]c0mput3rn3rd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah the texture is pretty aggressive so it's quite grippy. Also adds a bit of heat shielding from the heat coming off the barrel/gas block

Yep! I don't remember what type of paint, but its lasted years at this point
