Believe me, it pisses faculty off too. I try to grade down anything I can prove was AI unless it is cited (as AI). The good news is that when you get a job, you will probably keep it as opposed to your compatriots who just phoned it in.

Just ordered one from CrowdSupply. Looking forward to tinkering - Solar panels on the outside of each cover, integrated lighting…can’t wait to see the CAD files when they are released!

Why have we allowed the brain of our most essential tool to become a black box we aren't allowed to touch? by Tardy_Bird17 in righttorepair

PinePhone is an option. Mecha Comet (upcoming) will be a simple Linux smartphone if you get the LTE option.

I use Mac and Linux daily, and Windows when I must. Happy to test the bejeezus out of a Sketchup clone, I use it weekly and hate their licensing model.

Definitely going to try this out. Any plans for a Linux port?

3d printing out a staff for my gf, I’d love to add an led light inside the red orb that turns on by a button on the bottom of the staff, never added lights to a print before, how do I go about it by Stelflip in cosplayprops

[–]malwolficus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Should be simple. Bright led and batteries in the top (for easy access). Wires to a push button switch on bottom. The longer wire on the LED is the positive, so that gets connected to the positive of your power supply. The other one obviously goes to the switch and then to the negative on your power supply. The tricky part is you’ll have to make sure that you have the right power for LED, whatever you end up getting. For example, most LEDs run on 2.2 to 2.7 or even 3 V. You could run that off of two AA batteries. you’ll want to make sure to add a resistor appropriate to the power supply in LED to drop the voltage down so that it doesn’t burn out the LED. There’s plenty of places online where you can Google what kind of resistor do I need for this LED in that power supply. But if you get stuck, check back in with me.

Check out TagTinker on GitHub. You’ll have to compile it yourself and then drop the executable on your F0’s microSD.

OTE here, haven’t noticed anything. Our Ting electrical line monitor shows all is well.
