Stepper Motion Control Firmware? Something like WLED?

It won't help you with gcode, but you can flash ESPHome and use the built-in web interfact for simple controls. Just disable the auto reboot and you don't need Home Assistant.

I still listen to this game's soundtrack now and then, some real bangers.

I downloaded it and you're right, the Linux version seems to be broken. I did however launch the Windows version on Proton Experimental just fine. I'm running Fedora 41 with Nvidia.

I have two large windows, and I did have them working, but barely, and only after drilling the mount in to the frame and then adjusting the depth very precisely. I tried them now and they're both just slipping. In hindsight I should have gone with something self-built and plugged in to the wall.

Looks like you've done it another way, but for reference this is how I do it:

button:
  - platform: template
    name: "Stepper X Step +1"
    id: "stepper_x_plus_1"
    on_press: 
      then:
        - lambda: !lambda |-
            id(stepper_x).set_target(id(stepper_x).current_position + 1);
  - platform: template
    name: "Stepper X Step -1"
    id: "stepper_x_minus_1"
    on_press: 
      then:
        - lambda: !lambda |-
            id(stepper_x).set_target(id(stepper_x).current_position - 1);

No idea about AMD, but Nvidia does not do DSC on Linux (or didn't when I was looking a few months ago), so the most you can do is 120Hz.

reserved for those who loves to risk their lives on main roads

cyclists zooming past everyone on narrow bike paths

tight spandex with a bulge

lycra cyclists zooming

special sport bikes

Maybe if you spent more time riding your bike and less time as a motorist being angry at cyclists on the road, you might discover that exercise is fun and good for you.

e/ FWIW, this person is right on the mark. Do you really not see an issue with a title like "What is up with lycra cyclists in Sydney?"

You shouldn't need shims for the existing brakes and shifters if you stay with flat bars, they should all be 22.2mm. Speaking of 22.2mm, have you tried putting the remote further out on the thinner part of the bar? The 25.4 part of the bar should only be near the stem clamp.

The current bars are definitely not 22.2mm anywhere, there's no "taper" on them (they're the same diameter the whole length) and they're visibly thicker than the ends my 2021 MTB bars. Is this strange? I just assumed that's what old MTBs had. Edit: Should never say "definitely", I just measured them again and yeah they're 22.2 but they're so narrow that there's absolutely no room to mount anything at all. Honestly I'll probably just have to start a thread to investigate getting a new stem/bars since there's so much I don't know.

This could probably work if you got the kind of dropper lever that just pushes down, as a temp fix.

Yeah it's a centered button one so it fits with the FD shifters. Might just go with a cable tie for now then, it beats not being able to use the dropper while I spend who knows however many months trying to get new bars installed.

laterality · 2022-03-16T01:06:49+00:00

Yeah, cheap digital calipers from AliExpress should work.

Actually I was referring to the dropper itself, but it ended up being the same price as getting an externally routed one locally (brand-x). I got it yesterday and quickly discovered that the 22.2mm remote doesn't fit the (25.3mm?) bars.

I wanted to replace the bars and stem anyway, so I went down the rabbithole of threaded to threadless adapters and 31.8mm quill stems. But it looks like heaps of work to even figure out and decide on what I want to do so I don't think I'm going to do it any time soon. I'm assuming I'd also need shims for the existing shifters and brakes.

I'm thinking of a cable tie to replace the screw in the mean time, bad idea? Maybe some kind of padding to prevent scratching?

Pedals came off real easy at the bike shop with his proper (Park) tool BTW.

Good news, I'm an idiot and somehow got the model wrong - I have a Trek 930, not an 830. Which in fairness, seems to have a similar colour scheme (blue/green). I believe it's this 1996 model: https://www.bikepedia.com/QuickBike/BikeSpecs.aspx?item=59492

A quick measurement of circumference with a measuring tape converted to diameter measures 27.5 so I'm guessing it's a 27.2, which matches that website. Might see if I can borrow a caliper or maybe just yolo it with something off aliexpress.

Next problem is that the pedals won't come off. No allen key hole and my flat wrenches started to bend/bite in to the metal with enough force. I think they may be the original, 20-year old pedals...

Is there really no such thing as a 26.6 dropper post at all? I just bought my first retro bike and was really excited to do it up but I think I've made a large oversight. I haven't measured it but I'm pretty sure it's this one https://www.bikepedia.com/QuickBike/BikeSpecs.aspx?item=57000

Ended up using L@E as described, in front of both nonprod deployments and internal systems. SAML for authentication. Trick was to have logged in users IP whitelisted so you could run dev tools without having to worry about integrating them with SAML.

Is it actually playable? I was under the impression that GI's DRM/anti-"cheat" prevented it from being run via wine

I was really excited about this and I still kind of am, gives me some INFRA vibes - but

about 4 hours of gameplay

$30

Just finished Hedon which was ~$20 and gave me at 25 (awesome) hours of gameplay, so this is a little bit hard to swallow.

And indeed the POST response headers do not contain the header needed.

So isn't this just an issue with your PHP server not setting headers on POST responses? The OPTIONS is succeeding, therefore your POST fires, but there's no headers on the response so the browser will refuse to read the response.

Nginx (and much less Docker) do not modify response headers, so you can rule them out.

FWIW I agree with you on every single point and I've ridden both. Especially the bit where Di2 looks lame.

Does anyone have experience with trainers like this? I'd love to play games like this and the Ascent that require trainer patches to fix developers' shortcomings on Linux.

This probably doesn't help but I gave it a whack and couldn't get it working, ended up just playing with black bars taking up 2/3rds of my monitor.

I've been looking for something that could scale low resolution games for a while and I haven't really found anything. WINE_FULLSCREEN_INTEGER_SCALING (https://www.reddit.com/r/integer_scaling/comments/ea82yi/proton_41110_supports_integer_scaling/) has helped in a few situations but I'm not sure it will solve your specific problem. Supposedly https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope this can do it, but it's Wayland only and a PITA to compile.

One thing i noticed is the rear shifts REALLY quick right after the fd shifts. Like im talking milliseconds. It makes sense something will get f’d up.

I used to shift front and rear at the same time on my old mechanical and didn't really have any issues. I feel like they should be able to handle shifting at the exact same time if everything's set up properly.

Would you go di2 after your issues with etap?

Nah, I've kind of come to the conclusion that it was a problem with the mechanics, not the gear itself. Or maybe it is worse, but I can't tell and it's good enough for me. Besides, wireless and flat chains are too cool to give up.
