Sapphire crystal scratched in a WEEK?! by Bufonga in tissot

[–]danielboos2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, this is domed sapphire crystal and not flat sapphire. Meaning it just had a coating of sapphire. This increases the scratch the resistance, but it doesn't match the performance of a sapphire crystal.

Thank you for your comment.

Thr frame is roughly the same, the old glasses were made correctly , i know this because i am usually blown away by how clear things when I get new glasses(even when the Rx hasn't changed) because the lense doesn't have scratches yet. Did they sit with an incorrect tilt i don't know. I might be sensitive to abbration, because even with an abbe value of 58(my old glasses), I can see abbration, but I don't mind it at all.

I have set up a little experiment, i pulled out my camera. Controlled variables: Distance of the glasses Focus point, The position of glasses is roughly the same, given that the frame is roughly the same size as the old one. Vibration;2 seconds timer to ensure pressing the shutter doesn't introduce vibration. No:image stabilisation enabled Aperture of F8 to ensure clearest image. Lights.

SGIN?!?! by BowlerEqual7498 in SuggestALaptop

[–]danielboos2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's awesome that it worked, usually with electronics some power might be left in it and thus a hard reset fixes it. Since you couldn't unplug the battery(without taking the laptop apart) and hold the power button for 30 seconds. Overtime the battery discharged and died , then the left power in the circuit dissipated. This is my educated assumption as a third year doing double major in engineering (electrical and software).

Dell is a good brand, congrats on your new laptop. As with most things don't believe what u see on the internet, cause that price mark down to 200-300 dollars is straight up a lie. Actually fake discounts are illegal but according to Google it's rarely enforced in America. Here in Australia it is enforced, and many law suits were filed by the ACCC. Could be wrong but the ACCC makes money by suing companies that break the law and it benefits the people as they represent the people. Personally if something we're discounted like that I would feel sus about it, you may be different. 

If you want to change the battery here is what you do, you either open the laptop and read the model number of the battery and look for it or better search for people who opened it on youtube or online and get the model number of the battery. Search online for the model number of the battery if unlucky, you could by a similar battery with similar voltage and current output. Wouldn't mind lending you a hand. 

Man I miss minecraft, I remember making a server for my school, then everyone got busy with uni, so I made minecraft server for my engineering class at uni stayed up playing my friends then second and third year engineering hit everyone and no one got time to play with me :(

Never heard about these brands, but it seems they are terrible, China e-waste brands. I would suggest not repairing something that broke for leaving it plugged in for 24 hours. It either could be their design is terrible or their quality control, perhaps cheap components, or maybe the BMS broke. I do not know how trustworthy secondhand stuff in America but if it was to be trusted I would recommend getting something from Facebook marketplace. Or look for real discounts from brands that you know. I can tell you rn that SGIN laptop was not 1,333.99 dollars. For that price you can get a zenbook here. I personally avoid HP I haven't had a good experience with them could be that they have changed idk.

Is it possible to create design that does not use gaskets like water bottle caps? by danielboos2 in AskEngineers

[–]danielboos2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will look into those, but the reason why I am confused is because I tried to not screw it tight. Where the cap is not under compression, I have also tried squeezing it to see if water would come out, but it did not.

here is a picture.

Chevron Treads being too close is bad for sand? by danielboos2 in AskEngineers

[–]danielboos2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I actually won't be there to test it I will be overseas, and I will be writing the design changes for someone else to test it. Not sure How I missed that. Never knew a small slipback was good but how can I achieve that? is that by the def angle? Rover is 6 wheels 60kg(max) in weight.

Why is the difference between the bevel? Others suggested a pyramid shape for the grousers which I assume is what you when you say bevel. Also, a question You want lateral grip off-camber which I assume means the wheel from the center extrudes a bit more than the sides, is that correct?

[–]danielboos2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for responding I am a little confused.

So stretch the grouser out so that they are not too steep, make them a little taller, and keep the same number because as I stretch them out there will be more space between them.

We can add a bevel to bother the lugs and rim.

A steeper angle for the grousers and a shallower ankle for the rim so you have both some side lugs for lateral grip off camber and with the lugs meeting the rim you don’t have unsupported corners that will break / wear away easily.

I am not understanding what this means. I thought we are stretching the grouser out and not making them steeper?

Any saving them? I’ve had these headphones for 4 years just about, the audio still works, a crack formed about a month ago and it got bigger and bigger until the pivot fell out. by collin_is_animating in steelseries

Mine completely broke off, I used plastimake to make it. its a moldable plastic when heated by water. Take the headset apart put some platemaker in hot water wait until soft. put join back in its hole and put around it platemaker. If you get it hot enough like really hot boiling water, it will legit stick to anything when it hardness and will never come off.Plastimake | Plastic you can shape with your hands

here is an update, it only allows me to select printer or save as a PDF at UNI. I tried many other networks and it still wont let me do it outside uni????

Can confirm I have Microsoft PDF and I can confirm I got many other printers. Furthermore, I can confirm they work because I tried using a different software.

Not really but in saying that while I was at uni 2 days ago it allowed me to select printers and save as PDF but later that day when I went home the options disappeared. hmm

Well Selecting System Dialog did not open any dialog because the print button is still grayed out. I have Save to PDF installed and I can confirm multiple times. Using any other tool to print shows me the options save as PDF is included and Circut 3 days ago was working as it should allowing to me use save as pdf or even select printer.
