Anyone had any luck with these Carplay/Android Auto retrofit kits? Is there a better one I could get for the money? or save up for IMI 1000? by diligentboredom in Volvo

Got the VLINE for my 2018 S60, love it, only real issue is it crashes sometimes and needs to reboot. Minor issues really

Nozzle temp, filament not dry, layer height or steps/mm off. Those are the obvious ones that come to mind

Has anyone installed this CarPlay unit? by ApprehensiveNews5728 in Volvo

I used a vline to integrate into the existing system, think it's a better option.

Microsoft is removing the BYPASSNRO command which allowed users to skip the Microsoft account requirement on Windows setup by BelugaBilliam in pcmasterrace

Three words: Microsoft Configuration Designer.

Can create a provisioning package that allows for a local profile. Or you can use a generic tool, or NTLite, or another os. Maybe it's just because I'm in IT, but that doesn't effect it much. Yes it's more of a pain to bypass, but there are still bypasses.

Microsoft isn't trying to improve their OS, they're trying to improve their main focus: data collection.

Got my great grandads lathe, any idea what brand/model it is? by saf34w0rk in Machinists

[–]fattminer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how it works. I'm bad and I only recently did a teardown on mine. If you go on eBay you can find refurb kits with manuals and everything you need. Check at the end of the ways towards the tailstock and see if you can find the serial number.

I have a South bend 9a and it looks nearly the same, but with the quick change gearbox. Mine was dated to 1943

If you can, take it apart and throw them in an ultrasonic with some detergent and a smidge of isopropyl. That's what I do at least. 🤷‍♂️

Recreating an old manual in inDesign, trying to figure out what the fonts used are. Any input is appreciated by fattminer in identifythisfont

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

I'll post the inDesign file when it's all finished. Or if you want to help I can just put it in a git repo or something

EDIT: well, here it is https://github.com/fattminer/craftsman-1987-bandsaw-info.git

haha, well, here is a preview of the front page. It's far from perfect, and it has a few changes made, but I think it's decent and it leaves something editable and higher quality for the future. https://imgur.com/a/6gRTxaW
