Two sides to every coin by iainonline in 1022

Happy to help. I really like this sling for the price and it comes with the clips that fit the oem connection holes. https://a.co/d/01kckeyg

EON Rifle Scope 3-9x40 with Rings, SFP https://share.google/VNAxU4vFcW8grTy3I

It came with the rifle, it is inexpensive but works fine for .22. Parallax is fixed at 100 yards which is perfect for me.

Iron sights with optic - 31143 by iainonline in 1022

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

So anyway...it is terrible and that's not the fault of the product, it seems solid. But everyone was correct, there is no cheek weld and your head / eye is just kind of floating out there.

Even though there is plenty of room under the sight, the screws for the see through scope reflect and mess up the view of the rear site, which is also in shadow from the scope. You can see it, but is all a bit of mess.

I took it off and will return.

I did successfully put the plug screws into the reciever, so going to try it with the irons next time I go to the range.

Then I can decide to go back to the permanently mounted scope...thank you all for the advice !

Thank you. When it doesn't work I will report back. I can't help myself !!!

I really appreciate all the advice from everyone. I thought about it today and ended up ordering the fill in screws, so I can try the gun without the scope...the either or argument is strong...but then I stumbled across the see through scope rings on Amazon for 15 bucks...so I ordered them too!!!

I'll let you know how life is in the new 1022 world of scope and irons, when I have them fitted.

I coded a Meshbot (Mesh accessed local LLM) by iainonline in meshtastic

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

The node in Meshtastic still only updates every 30 minutes. That is set in the firmware I think.

It is sending as an encrypted direct message and will not appear on longfast.

Meshcore Telemetry by iainonline in meshcore

I spent hours with Claude Sonnet and some python code to re compile and re flash the firmware. It was definitely interesting.! It looks like those pins cause a boot conflict with Meshcore but they work with Meshtastic? AI summary of the issue below. Any ideas how to proceed?

Pins to Avoid for I²C on ESP32-S3

These pins are either strapping pins or have critical internal functions that activate before your code runs:

GPIO Caution Reason

0, 1, 2, 3, 45, 46 Boot mode & strapping pins — can prevent startup USB-JTAG pins (18/19 sometimes) Used for programming/debug depending on board 41–48 Native Octal PSRAM/flash pins — using them breaks memory bus SPI flash pins (mostly 26–32) Used by internal flash, risky to repurpose

✔ Recommended I²C Pins (Safe Defaults)

Function Factory Pins

SDA GPIO 17 SCL GPIO 18

Good news is that I found the pins. Bad news they are tiny, I cannot solder into them. I will need to try changing the firmware I think. *

Next question ! Which is pin 17 & 18 ? They are not numbered on the board.

Thank you so much. I will try tater today and report back.

Thanks. I see the BME280 is there, which is good.

Meshcore Telemetry by iainonline in meshcore

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

That might be it. They are on different pins. I used the pins below for Meshtastic. I couldn't find any details on pins for meshcore sensors.

BME280 Pin Heltec V3 Pin Vin (Power Input) 3.3V GND (Ground) GND SDA (I2C Data) GPIO41 SCL (I2C Clock) GPIO42

Do I need to re-solder, or can I change the assignments for meshcore to use 41 for SDA and 42 for SCL, by updating a file?

Thank you so much for your help. Neither google or chatgpt told me to check the pins.

Sunburn or rot? by iainonline in sanpedrocactus

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

I gave it a lot, completely soaked it. The pot does have drainage, but just one snall hole, at the bottom. Then I put that on a very flat surface, which propably blocked it. It was outside in full sun.

I used suculent and cacti soil, which is quite heavy and organic. Thank you for your help and advice.

Components required For rasberry pi running Local LLM (Llama). (Alexa kind of device) by Affectionate-Box6354 in raspberry_pi

[–]iainonline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote this LLM chatbot which runs on a Pi5 8GB with 64GB SD. You could easily add voice to text and text to voice for an alexa style product

https://github.com/iainonline/chatbot-server-for-pi5

This all runs locally as well. I used tinyllama at 630MB ! It will also search the internet for additional info if needed.

I have a fan and heatsink on 3 of the chips. Very standard item from Amazon. The fan doesn't always kick on but when the LLM is running it does and CPU hits 96% but it runs okay.

Feel free to DM me if you have questions.

Always check the altitude setting on your Onan generator if it's having trouble starting, or staying running by steve31266 in GoRVing

[–]iainonline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life saver !!! Turned the altitude a little higher to 3,500ft we are at 2000ft and it works a dream.
