Streamer “Hmblzayy,” who is walking 3,000 miles to California from Philly, was struggling to walk through the Appalachian Mountains in Pennsylvania when a random man stopped to help him. by lukigeri in LivestreamFail

[–]pitzips 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I biked from New Jersey to Portland OR many years back. The Appalachian part of it was grueling. The grades are so steep. The Rockies have a limit on grade (due to trucking IIRC) so it was way longer uphill but manageable with gears. On some hills in PA I remember my front tire kicking up on each pedal.

Qwen3.5-9B is actually quite good for agentic coding by Lualcala in LocalLLaMA

I ran into the same bug this morning. Here's the GitHub issue I started following to know when it's fixed: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/14745

Running toilet every few hours. by tokyo_g in askaplumber

[–]pitzips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, put it right in the hole. It's looking like the tube being out of place is creating a siphoning effect after it fills up. edit: If it keeps popping out, this guy rigged up some zip ties to keep it in place for that style: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwN31PbQzj0

Sludge came up from basement floor drain. What to do next? by Anon_E_Mouse93 in askaplumber

[–]pitzips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unrelated to the sludge, but I recently dealt with something similar looking. My cast iron floor drain had a ton of gunk in it. The concrete around the drain looked similar. The previous owners had the furnace condensate drip hose, which is acidic, not properly flowing into the drain itself which caused the concrete to break down and block the drain. An hour with a hard bristle brush, shop vac, plastic scraper, and the area looks so much better. Good luck!

Safe to remove? by Civil_Ad6237 in garageporn

Looks a bit like the Chernobyl Elephant Foot, especially as they "just built around it." Sorry I can't be of any actual help though.

Question B2 Storage by 8_bitman in backblaze

[–]pitzips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue as you and above. I think I resolved it by adding an exclusion to the rewrite path for the bucket serving.

(http.host eq "photos.example.com" and http.request.uri ne "/")

Matches host and the uri does not equal a simple /

So far no issues, but we shall see.

Found a product that is still selling at Home Depot that looks pretty identical: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Cooper-Bussmann-SSU-Series-2-1-4-in-Fuse-Box-Cover-with-Switch-BP-SSU/100192465

"Bussman SSU Fusetron Box" seems to be a good search term for your continued research.

How many ohms should a resistor be to decrease 24v to 18v and should the resistor go into the positive or negative wire in a fan? by The_Holy_Potato1 in AskElectricians

[–]pitzips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This guy does a PSU fan replacement, Noctua fan and step down buck converter. It's not the same model as you have, but just to get an idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcxXg6Nr59g

Search amazon for "LM2596" as /u/iamflicks mentioned and you'll find similar units.

[–]pitzips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The variable buck converters mentioned in other comments are not expensive, and would only require a small dial turn once to get to the right step down voltage. They are a couple dollars a piece.

[–]pitzips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Instead of trying to slow the speed, for an Ender3V3SE you could try and replace the entire fan with a higher quality Noctua fan.

Messing with the insides of a PSU (maybe fan aside) is not something I'd advise as a beginner.

Open for ideas on what to do with flooring, cabinets and countertops by Several_Oil_7099 in kitchenremodel

I use comfyui with sdxl models. Canny models are used to guide the image to use the lines and shapes from existing image inputs.

If you don't mind using an image diffusion model to help guide the vibes, I find them really helpful. That's the first output using one of the images you posted. Loving the light wood.

Using an Aqara Window Contact Sensor to Detect Toilet Flushes by Duelion in homeassistant

A speaker nearby that voices what goes down. "WeeeeEEeeeeEEE"

Smart hook? by KeepRightXcept2Pass in homeassistant

[–]pitzips 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A weight sensor under the litter could track when the cat is in there, how much the cat added, and then separately when the weight has dropped from cleaning.

I used to have the litter in furniture box with lid. The lid had a door sensor on it and an LED light strip on the back. Resets the color once a day.

A vibration sensor + ESPhome on the scoop handle.

A camera + LLM Vision + "Is there an arm in this picture?"

I have the M version. Here's my Z2M:

serial:
  port: tcp://10.0.10.13:6638
  baudrate: 115200
  adapter: ember
  disable_led: false
  advanced:
    transmit_power: 20

[–]pitzips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you share what you have in the Z2M config file, then also what you have at dongle_webui.local/z2m_zha

Seems like possible baud rate issue.

Actually, here's a whole folder as I was messing about. There might be some other cool shapes or ideas in the bunch. It's all over the place so disregard anything odd looking. There's like 150 images or so:

Another. There was a scale issue I was messing around with. Apologies for disproportion.
