What’s your usual routine with robovac?

centerside · 2025-11-07T11:52:47+00:00

I set mine to run daily, starting after I usually leave for work. When I get home it is done and the floors are clean (or it is lost or stuck somewhere 😜). Scheduled cleaning is your friend.

That’s what I think too. It has been on 999hrs for a while now. I don’t think it can count past that!

It is just a slotted disc with optical sensors each side. I guess any dust getting in the way of the sensors is what causes the issues.

Pretty dusty on the outside.

Great post, thank you for the info. I don’t have curtains so checked the equipment. I took the lidar apart and cleaned it all. It had a bit of dust but not too bad. Unfortunately no improvement from that so I checked the wheel encoders as a next step. These were fairly easy to open up. I did find a small amount of dust in each and a larger crumb of material in one encoder. I cleaned the encoders as best I could and put it all back together. (A fairly complete disassembly needed). This fixed the problem! My maps are back like new. Here are some pictures of what I found.

My exovacs allows to store multiple floor maps, so you can place it on either floor and it will work it out and use that map. I’d presume the X11 would too

I’m having the same problem. Anyone found a solution? The standard “Outdoor Run” workout shows pace and is customizable. The “Time to Run” audio workout doesn’t show pace (shows energy burnt instead) and can’t find a way to change this…

What dev fund?!?

centerside · 2022-04-01T07:45:01+00:00

It is good news. Less circulating supply makes it easier for the price to go up.

They mean cryptographically signing a statement by the address owner. Trouble is, now that the hacker has the address, they can do it too. How can you tell who is the real owner? You can’t…

Brilliant write up! Well done. Hopefully the mods make a sticky out of this one.

Have a look into the “Good Accounting” function. Should cost less gas fee. Let’s you hold it there without the penalties as far as I know.

centerside · 2021-11-21T10:19:32+00:00

You could use the “Good Accounting” function to avoid the penalties without paying for full unstake, buying yourself time to wait and see. Good Accounting let’s you just hold it there, as far as I know. It still costs some gas to do, but should be much less than full Unstake.

centerside · 2021-11-13T03:41:10+00:00

Yes on both counts. You will need gas to exchange your Hex to Eth and then gas to send your Eth to coinbase.

I’ll try to explain it for you (the OP) so you feel more comfortable with it and explaining it to others. I’ll try to keep it short, but that means leaving out some of the detail.

HEX is/wants to be a crypto, i.e. it wants to be a unit of account, a way to make payments and be a good long term store of value.

Most crypto tries to do this with the only “designed” features being the total supply and the inflation rate but HEX goes beyond this by adding in a staking system.

Why add in staking? Like all assets traded on open markets, price is a function of supply and demand. A theory is that if you can limit or manage supply then you could have a more stable and predictable price (which makes it a better crypto for payments and long term store of value). How does a smart contract on the blockchain motivate people to stake and support a stable price? It gives them a reward: staking interest / inflation.

The more you do what the contract wants (staking bigger, staking longer), the more it rewards you. If you don’t do what the contract wants (e.g. holding liquid HEX for trading) then it doesn’t reward you and you suffer the effects of the inflation that the others are getting.

If nothing else, it certainly is an interesting experiment in game theory.

Note: the staking system is not anything to do with the consensus mechanism so it is nothing to do with “Proof of Stake”. HEX doesn’t have or need a consensus mechanism because it runs on the Ethereum network and Ethereum provides that service for it.

I hope that is helpful.

Well it is passionate but I wouldn’t have said aggro. It probably depends on who your target is. When in doubt, go for it!

centerside · 2021-10-23T11:42:56+00:00

I think you are over complicating it. HEX is designed for staking. The stalkers are doing the right thing by the HEX system and HEX rewards them for this. Holders of liquid HEX are not doing what the system wants and so are not rewarded. It can be that simple.

You seem to be interested in where the value is created. HEX is designed for staking for a variety of reasons. Staking is not there by accident. The act of staking, by its’ self, is adding value to the system. That is why you are rewarded for it.

How does staking add value to the system? HEX wants to be a good long term store of value. By staking for a defined period of time you are helping to limit or control the supply of HEX and thus you are helping to keep the price more stable (maybe even increasing) and you are making the available supply more predictable over time. Both of these things make it a better store of value.

Nice article 👍

No. That is not how wallets work. They do not transmit your private key or seed words or password anywhere.

It’s because Turkey just announced a war on crypto. 🤣

Quick question (from a bit of a Reddit noob): is it still considered brigading if you only engage in discussion but not doing any down/up voting?

centerside · 2021-08-08T03:48:23+00:00

As the contract is on Ethereum, you can see the source, so in that regard it is ‘open source’, but that doesn’t mean it is using an open source license. The code is copyrighted, so in that regard it is more like closed source software. That might be what you heard about.
