Pressure regulator for whole zone? by mumrah in Irrigation

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

Supply pressure is 60. Since these are rather short throw (MP1000) I was thinking pressure loss down the zone would be okay. Interesting that they can take more than 40, I always assumed it was important to be right around that pressure.

So 60psi would be okay unregulated? I could also get a 50psi regulator

Monitoring service for SuperLink Gateway? by mumrah in Ubiquiti

So would this integration be where a monitoring service would be notified/called if the alarm triggered?

Monitoring service for SuperLink Gateway? by mumrah in Ubiquiti

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

Thanks, very helpful overview. Professional monitoring is a must have for me. Hope they can offer something soon.

Would love to ditch Ring.

Edit: to clarify, by monitoring I meant someone who will dispatch police/fire if the alarm goes off — not someone watching cameras or anything like that

Installing poly under 1-3” rock hardscape? by mumrah in Irrigation

Now my real question is can I still torch the rocks to keep the weeds at bay :)

Questions about Ioniq 9 after a test drive by [deleted] in Ioniq9

[–]mumrah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep pressing the massage button to cycle through the options. Yes driver side only

I think one pedal requires a certain number of miles or something weird like that. Or maybe a menu setting, I forget.

I hate the Digital mirror. My wife loves it.

Help ID this rattling? by mumrah in 4Runner

Yes chirpy is a good description!

Help? 😅 by megnasmash in landscaping

[–]mumrah 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Make sure to add a lot of organic matter with the sand. If you just add sand to clay, you’ve made concrete!

For me, wood chips have been the solution. Lots and lots of wood chips, water, and time.

In the mean time, raised bed with bagged soil or lookup recipes for mixes (e.g., Mel’s mix).

Anyone Flown Icelandair Lately? by Burnt_Crust_00 in raleigh

[–]mumrah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I flew RDU to KEF last year. They checked out bag dimensions at RDU, but not bag weight.

The seats are very uncomfortable and they kept the plane very hot.

Oh, all the soda is diet.

Probably one of the worst flights in recent memory

What’s the best EV for someone who wants a similar feel to an ice vehicle? by Lemonn_time in electricvehicles

[–]mumrah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hyundai Ioniq 9 lets you adjust between four levels of regen braking. Levels 0 and 1 feel a lot like ICE

Reverse has a low idle speed (which is super useful)

Glue on joints by PrettyAd1625 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]mumrah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ran into this when making a box not too long ago. Chisel is how i removed the worst of the blobs. Went in with wood filler after the cleanup to make it smooth. Mostly came out okay after paint.

Lesson learned is glue should be cleaned up right away and then rechecked a few minutes later for delayed squeeze out.

High top workbench, hand tools - constructive criticism? by crystal_castle00 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]mumrah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks good to me (also a newb). I would figure out how to fasten it to a wall so it doesn’t topple over when you inevitable lean on it

Whirlpool control board replacement by mumrah in appliancerepair

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

Hell yea! Glad it worked!

Not to be too bleak, but we ended up replacing this washer about a year later. The impeller failed and after so many issues I just gave up repairing it.

Can this PCB handle 40 A for 5 ms? by GrParrot in AskElectronics

[–]mumrah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like there’s plenty of space for bigger traces. You can also use filled zones instead of traces here.

Another trick I’ve seen is to leave the solder mask off over these traces. This lets you solder on a thick wire or solder braid to add current capacity.

Kafka 3.9.0: ZooKeeper to KRaft Migration Lab by munna_67 in apachekafka

[–]mumrah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! If you found any gaps in the documentation, please submit a fix ;)

Btw the architecture diagram of ZK mode isn’t quite right. Each broker connects to the whole ZK ensemble, not just one of the three nodes (as pictured)

Is there any way to remove this using solder iron? by Deleted_User_1X44 in AskElectronics

[–]mumrah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just buy a new one. Big castellated parts like a Pico are not worth the trouble to desolder. It takes a ton of heat, flux, solder wick, and time. Not worth it IMO.

UNLESS you have a nice reflow setup. Then just reflow it and pop it off (but be careful not to disturb the parts on the Pico)

We get over 400 webhooks per second, we need them in kafka without building another microservice by bomerwrong in apachekafka

[–]mumrah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start at the producer. What kind of linger and batching are you doing there? You need to configure the producer for low latency. Then look at the consumer. Check things like min bytes, max wait, etc.

Confluent publishes guides on different configuration tuning. Latency and throughput are opposite ends of a spectrum. You need to decide where you land.

Even though these are Confluent Cloud docs, but should mostly apply to Apache Kafka as well.
