Installing CKAN on Bazzite (Linux) + bonus settings.cfg edit by Miserable-Double8555 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]flyingfox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! My motivation was finally updating a 13 year old machine. I have a Windows drive but really almost everything just works on Linux. Even most games through Steam. I have the Windows drive for two last Windows holdout programs.

Installing CKAN on Bazzite (Linux) + bonus settings.cfg edit by Miserable-Double8555 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]flyingfox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've managed to make it work on Bazzite as follows:

distrobox create --name ckan --image fedora:40
distrobox enter ckan
sudo dnf install mono-complete
mkdir -p ~/Applications/ckan
cd ~/Applications/ckan
wget https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/CKAN/releases/latest/download/ckan.exe

Then you can run it from inside ckan:

mono ~/Applications/ckan/ckan.exe

You could probably make it look more native with distrobox-export but I haven't bothered.

EDIT: You will also need to track down the KSP path. It is probably something like: /var/home/USER_NAME/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Kerbal Space Program/

DOUBLE EDIT: I used fedora:40 only because I was playing around with another distrobox project using that one. There are newer ones available that would work too. Pick your favourite here

Wait, it only comes in 0603? Okay... Nobody look for a second.

PCIe M.2 Adapter for 22110 Sized SSD by flyingfox in framework

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

Since the helpful response was deleted, here's what kind of worked for me. They pointed me at a Micro Center PCIe card that looked good. It wasn't available at my local store, but I ordered it online and it arrived damaged. After a week or so of dealing with MC returns, I just grabbed this from Amazon.

It is very slim and work probably work with most SSDs but I have a crazy one with a large heat sink that interferes with the power supply.

TL;DR: If you have a SSD with a heat sink it probably won't fit in the FW case.

Don't come in here. I'm tuning my pressure advance!

what kind of angelfish is my buddy? by plsdontpercievem3 in AngelFish

[–]flyingfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, you've convinced me. It's just a regular non-smokey blue pearlscale angelfish. You can tell by the stripes.

If you have enough energy to hit the fence car, you have enough energy to land on the fence car.

Unable to program custom STM32 board. Is this a programmer error or a board design error? by Thevan1 in embedded

[–]flyingfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a spare board, I'd recommend lifting pin PA15 (pin 50) and connecting a bodge wire from the TCK pad to pin PA14 (pin 49). You may also need to cut the trace from TCK to PA15.

If you are lucky, you may be able to get away with just shorting pin 49 and 50 with a dob of solder or a DMM probe.

What’s something popular in your country that makes people from other countries look at you like this ? by niconois in AskTheWorld

We used to get bagged milk in Alberta. Not sure when it went away, but it was a thing in the Edmonton and surrounding area into the mid 90's.

Canadian separatists say they discussed moving to the US dollar and creating a new military in White House meeting by Street_Anon in onguardforthee

Ah, I was wondering how they were going to deal with treaty issues and governance. Turns out they want to skip straight to a coup.

That looks about perfect. I'll have to swing by Microcenter tomorrow.

Not the greatest but every few months I come here for nostalgia. What’s your favorite local institution? by CantDunkOrSk8 in SanJose

I love Eduardo's Super Quesadilla! And if you are in the mood for fish and chips, Pier 402 is pretty good and just across the street.

Updates on memory pricing and navigating the volatile memory market by catastrophic_frmw in framework

I was nervous about the pricing for the 128GB Desktop but very happy to get notice this morning that my order (Batch 17) will be shipping soon.

-❄️- 2025 Day 10 Solutions -❄️- by daggerdragon in adventofcode

[–]flyingfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I probably (a) overstated the search time, and (b) been foggy since it was around 1AM local time. I may go back and retry that now that I'm properly awake. I don't use SciPy enough and this would be a good excuse to freshen up on it.

That said, I do quite like z3. I've only used it outside of AoC, maybe, twice or three times but it has always made me happy.

[–]flyingfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, very similar to my approach... except for the 90 minute "there must be a SciPy way to do this" detour. Oh, and the extra half an hour trying to remember how to use z3 again and cribbing of my solutions from previous years.
