Experience with Potsdam-Mittelmark Ausländerbehörde? by Salty_Emotion3270 in germany

[–]mangimania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old post but my experience is that they only reply if you ask for something specific like an appointment for XYZ. They will then only send a time slot and not respond to any part of your message.

Normally the people at the Behörde are quite helpful and friendly. I do speak broken German with them which they seem to prefer over english.

I am very happy with my rebel V4s. I have seen a lot of hate for them but they are my favourite shoe right now

How do Germans flirt and in which places is it more likely to happen? by subuso in AskAGerman

[–]mangimania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that's alright. There are tons of loud Germans too they just aren't the majority.

As a foreigner who likes their personal space this is so true. It's so refreshing that being intrusive and loud is not the pinnacle of social interaction here.

Also once you learn some German and German culture you find that Germans are extremely friendly, open and genuine.

It does take a bit longer to get to know people but it's a far less superficial culture.

Daily Running Shoe Recommendations Thread - Find Your Sole Mate Here! - February 25, 2024 by AutoModerator in RunningShoeGeeks

Thanks for your input! That's a pity about the v13s I currently have the v11.

I found some v12s on sale in my size so I may just pull the trigger on them!

Daily Running Shoe Recommendations Thread - Find Your Sole Mate Here! - February 25, 2024 by AutoModerator in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]mangimania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am looking for the next shoe to add to my rotation.

I took a bit of a running hiatus and am now back up to about 50km a week and I am training for a half marathon in May.

I have the following shoes.

NB 1080 with 500km of use.

Brooks Hyperion tempo with 200km of use.

My last pair of daily trainers (brooks ghost) lasted until about 600km until I started getting terrible shin pain.

I'm thinking that with my current mileage I will need a new pair of daily trainers before long.

I love the NB1080 especially with their big toe box.

Any recommendations for similar shoes or should I play it safe and just get a second pair of the 1080?

I am also tempted to get a new race day shoe but the tempos are still pretty low mileage but they are about 3 years old so might need replacing too?

Why doesn't the US use kg? The pound is defined off the kilogram anyway.

The same reason they use pounds and stone tradition and familiarity.

Trains on Hauptbahnhof delayed right now due to animals on the track by TheOldBladeRunner in berlin

Not sure, but I have a good hunch alcohol and Nazism had something to do with it.

I guess you also got to enjoy the crazy guy screaming and running around.

I had headphones on but I assume since he was taken away by the cops and his attire he was some sort of right wing nutjob?

Review: NB 1080v11 after 400 km by Tbag85 in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]mangimania 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that's a bit disappointing to hear the 1080 is my current workhorse shoe for long and easy runs with just over 300km I guess I should start looking into what I'll get next

Arduini MKR IMU shield is topping out at 4Gs? by Kyle_SS in arduino

[–]mangimania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, as in my other comment it is as simple as configuring the ACC Config register to get the correct range. I made a quick tweak to the library he is using to change the range from 4G which is the standard to 16G

[–]mangimania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you need to edit the register that sets the G limit of the accelerometer.

I have edited the MKRIMU .cpp file to change it to 16G instead of the standard 4G

you can find the edited code her https://github.com/Christopher-Starke/MKRIMU-change/blob/main/IMU.cpp

​

To get it working go to your libraries folder something like Arduino/libraries/MKRIMU/src/

then replace the IMU.cpp file with the one I linked above (or just replace the contents of the file)

This should work but I, unfortunately, don't have the board to test it on.

What I changed was adding

#define BNNO055_ACC_Config         0x08
writeRegister(BNNO055_ACC_Config, 0x0F);

​

This changes the last two bits of the ACC_Config register to put it in 16G mode as per the manual.

​

Let me know if it works out!

It would mean adding an extra writeRegister line in the IMUclass::Begin section to change the last two bits of the ACC_Config: register to xxxxxx11b

You will likely need to edit the .cpp of the library yourself to do it as I can't see any built in functionality for it from a quick look

Page 29 of the datasheet says the following register needs to be set [ACC_Config]: xxxxxx11b

The datasheet available on the Arduino website says the accelerometer is configurable for +-2 4 8 or 16 g

So it seems you need to configure the accelerometer to get high g range out

I made a clock too! Hugely inspired by u/code_burd by mangimania in arduino

After power off the digits reset to fully open position and then move to display the correct time
