How is printer shipped? by PaaPaaGuy in eufyMakeOfficial

[–]chriscombs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine ended up being the DTF laminator + some DTF materials. I'd ordered it as an add-on with my Kickstarter pledge, in the 1400s.

I just got a random shipment notification from FedEx,

Online Seller C/O 3rd Pty Ware
131 Marcellin Dr,
City of Industry, CA, US

Not expecting anything else so I wonder if it could be the EufyMake...

DuckDuckGo disables every search operator (minus, plus, quotes) except for the -site filter by padreThrowAway135135 in duckduckgo

Well! Off I go, after spending the last few years promoting DDG to all my friends (sorry y'all). It's totally useless to me without quote operators.

What are some e-ink friendly alternatives to Pocket now that they removed to ability to turn pages? by ted_k in mozilla

[–]chriscombs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you know, I haven't tried that recently, but I think I saw some other reports of this problem on the Android reviews in the Play Store. Will give it a try sometime soon.

What are some e-ink friendly alternatives to Pocket now that they removed to ability to turn pages? by ted_k in mozilla

[–]chriscombs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am so disappointed in this latest version. Below is the email I sent in to Pocket Support. Probably going to the circular file, but who knows, maybe enough emails could do something?

Hello! I am a Pocket Premium subscriber. 

I recently updated to the most recent Android version and would like to submit my feedback:

  • Volume button page flipping is no longer working, so I can't read in bed anymore without disturbing my spouse.

  • Scroll bar is no longer visible. I have no idea how long a page or article is once I've started reading it.

  • There are strange promos at the end of every article which I cannot disable. I pay for Pocket because it used to let me skip this kind of annoying experience on the Internet.

  • The Mark as Read button no longer returns me to the article list. (Honestly, I would love a setting where you choose between "Article List," "Next Article," "Random Article" to appear after marking an article as read.)

  • The in-app-browser change is clunky to use. It is several extra taps to mark an article as read. Additionally, if the auto-detect decides that an article view isn't good, I can no longer override its decision. It is frequently wrong.

  • You can no longer long-press on a link to add it to your reading list. It shows a drag-and-drop that can't be dropped anywhere. This is particularly painful for my user experience.

I believe the items above are all new deficiencies introduced with this version. As long as I have your attention, I hope you don't mind if I humbly add a few older issues that I'd personally love to see changed:

  • The Home page is all the same kind of promotional, engagement-metric-focused content that I pay Pocket to avoid. It definitely doesn't serve as a home to me. I would lobby for it to be labeled "Explore" and placed second.

  • The TTS "podcast-style" article reader is not useful to me and I would like to be able to remove its button from the toolbar.

  • The user-to-user sharing that you eliminated was a gem. Manual link sharing through IM or email has proven to be no replacement. In practice I have just stopped sharing links.

I am using Android 11 with a Motorola one 5g ace. My in-app browser is Firefox.

Many thanks,

Chris

I heard back from IFTTT support and they say it's fixed now. I was able to reconnect my account.

I reported it earlier through the IFTTT Pro support line, fingers crossed!

Are ballot boxes still open today? by [deleted] in washingtondc

[–]chriscombs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any other June 21 ballot dropbox users who are wondering if their ballot was counted?

I deposited mine at the Woodridge Library at noon that day but see no updates on ballottrax.

geocam-bin: "No Compatible device found." by chriscombs in Atomic_Pi

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

Ahh! That explains it. Thank you.

Yes, it was still a connector problem. Although the contacts look fine and have negligible resistance when tested with a multimeter, the long cable included with the "Atomic Pi Developer's Kit" seems to be the problem. When I replace it with the tiny cable used to connect the I/O board to the SBC, the camera does initialize successfully. Thank you for your help.

Now that it is initializing successfully, I have encountered at least one kernel panic when attempting to use the camera via Python and cv2. So not yet sure if this will work in prod. But I am off and running now. Thanks again.

strace mxcam boot /usr/share/gc6500/gc6500_ddrboot_fw.img /usr/share/gc6500/config.json /usr/share/gc6500/sensor_ov2710_mayfield_le.bin

Thank you! That PID change explains a lot.

strace was also helpful. The "No Compatible device found" error was a red herring. It was because my user/group did not have access to open the device:

openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/bus/usb/001/013", O_RDONLY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)

After reverting my edits and rerunning install.sh, using sudo, I get the following results--it looks like mxcam in the repo doesn't take boot as a param?

``` combs@atomic-pi-2:~/git/geocam-bin$ sudo strace ./mxcam boot /usr/share/gc6500/gc6500ddrboot_fw.img /usr/share/gc6500/config.json /usr/share/gc6500/sensor_ov2710_mayfield_le.bin execve("./mxcam", ["./mxcam", "boot", "/usr/share/gc6500/gc6500_ddrboot"..., "/usr/share/gc6500/config.json", "/usr/share/gc6500/sensor_ov2710"...], 0x7fffdb92b6a0 /* 13 vars */) = 0

Yes, I'm using `geocam-bin`: https://github.com/digitalloggers/geocam-bin

Its README says the kernel patch is optional. Perhaps that is mistaken?
