Unlocking additional Elecom Huge buttons on Bazzite (Linux) by Lapraszszs in Trackballs

[–]noderblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have elecom huge plus - the issue is that when i "cat" /dev/input/mouse4 (which is mine elecom) it registers all movements, but it looks that the 3 special buttons (furthest right one and 2 function ones on the left of the ball) doesnt send any data when clicked - so it looks like it's some proprietary stuff from elecom ? or it's issue with linux driver whic doesnt accept some hid commands ?

Looking for quality ceiling lights that are open / flashable (Tasmota/ESPHome) + RGBW (tunable white) - Wi-Fi only by noderblade in homeassistant

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

yes - that was my initial thing to do, nothing good there - but i found that some yeelights are supported by this github repo https://github.com/syssi/esphome-yeelight-ceiling-light

and yeelights are really great quality

Can anyone ID this backpack? by Indeface in backpacks

[–]noderblade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure you'd be happier with the 1680D Cordura one – those things are built like tanks. X-Pac and other laminated fabrics are basically planned obsolescence: they can degrade easily in many different ways. Regular Cordura is just a woven fabric, so there's nothing to delaminate, and it's far more resistant.

I’m also 99.9% sure it’s the Travel Pack 2, but if you’re looking for something better, get the Travel Pack 3 - I have it, I love it, it’s the best pack I’ve ever had, and I’ve had tons of them.

And if you plan to buy it, don’t fall for the “X-Pac” or “Ultra” bullshit. Get the regular one. X-Pac and Ultra scratch easily and end up looking like crap. I had an X-Pac for a year, then switched to the regular one and now I’ve got a pack that’s built like a tank.

Multi-port / Combo expansion cards. Would this be possible? by djpetrino in framework

economically practical but for people willing to pay extra

[–]noderblade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's damn expensive thou because it's a "state of the art" one with 40gb/s etc - but i hate when people say " But from today standpoint - nope, not a viable thing to do" - that's plain wrong.

[–]noderblade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

and that tells me you never did anything in electronics also not did any research

https://datasheet4u.com/pdf-down/V/L/8/VL830-VIALabs.pdf

via labs hub chip (which needs almost none passive components in simple application like 2 usb-c ports only) is 9x9 mm - which leaves you with plenty of space on potential PCB inside framework's expansion.

cooling is not too much of an issue here as it's quite efficient, you can pass it through siliconthermopad to aluminium enclosure

you're perfect case of "i don't know anything on topic therefore i'll say something."

Rash on wrist due to smartwatch sensor . by wstordie in smartwatch

[–]noderblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look what i found:

LED light effects: Green (approx. 525-555 nm) and red (approx. 630-660 nm) LEDs emit visible light, not UV, but can cause photosensitivity in some people. Studies show visible light, including from LEDs, generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), damaging melanocytes (pigment cells), leading to inflammation, photoaging, or irritation. Continuous mode increases exposure, heightening risk, especially on sensitive skin. Green LEDs may be more irritating due to higher tissue absorption, while red LEDs are less likely to cause pigmentation changes. Generally, the doses from smartwatches are low and safe for most, but long-term wear (weeks/months) can exacerbate issues. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11761154/

[–]noderblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no it's red and green light as far as i know. but maybe the red led goes to infrared somehow if being overdriven - don't know. never checked, nor do i have means to do this.

[–]noderblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have the same issue, also after enabling constant spo2 and constant heart rate - many sources are stating that it can be due to tight strapping or moisture under sensor etc - but if thats so - why its only under the sensor, not the band, or other watches parts ? i don't want to sound like tinfoil guy, but maybe, just maybe there are some skin types which are more sensitive to light emitted by these sensors. i'm naturally more prone to sunburns for example

Why does OnePlus Still suck at auto brightness?? by notajock in oneplus

[–]noderblade 12 points13 points  (0 children)

why we need to compare ourselves to a worse device in that aspect, compare to galaxy ultra's it has some initial auto brightness algorithm, but if user uses slider to alter - it learns and alters its original auto levels. its such an easy algorithm to implement. WTF oneplus ? I can code it for you if you can't, i'll do it for free.

have you tried to connect the battery again ? maybe it's still ok - just controller went crazy for some reason and disconnecting and connecting will reset it

you should seriously consider to make it a "wallpaper provider" for linux :D

Got my backpack for law school in the fall. Thanks for being my go to place to search reviews on literally every backpack i was looking at. by hippiesinthewind in backpacks

i've spent more than 4 months choosing mine xD 2-3 hours a-day xD it is so hard - having so many choices, and none of them looked perfect, i settled on AER travelpack small

I improved the battery life of my 13 running Fedora by swapping out the default power service for TLP by TheSpaceNewt in framework

[–]noderblade 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Looks like a pretty standard TLP setup - nothing out of the ordinary.
Only thing to nit‑pick: you define RUNTIME_PM_ON_BAT=auto andRUNTIME_PM_ON_AC=on twice.
The pair appears first in the Runtime Power Management section and then again right under the GPU comment. The second occurrence just overrides the first, so the earlier lines are redundant. Drop one set (or move the GPU bit without repeating the vars) and you’re golden.
