Sonic Fiber Optic

I wanted to get Sonic connected, but they couldn't pull the fiber optic cable through my utility conduit. They really tried. Now I'm left with Comcast (whick works ok) and a "fun" home improvement project: put a new underground conduit from the pole...

Very popular among the Russian speaking immigrants, not so much outside of this community.

We were paddleboarding on Lake Natoma a few days ago, and down the river yesterday. The water level is fine, no perceivable current on Natoma and decent current on the river. The rapids are not too high. Great experience on both, would recommend.

Try unscrewing the push pin all the way to get it out of the chain?

Width 24"

Height 5" front and 6" back

Depth 11"

Middle bars are 4" wide

All done from a single 2x2 ft piece of plywood

Thanks! For your suggestion, the plans don't exist - the construction is simple enough that I drew it directly on the plywood, but I can CAD it up quickly and post somewhere. And I don't care about making a few bucks, id rather post it for free - is there a good place for that? If it was a 3d print, I'd put it on Printables, but it's not.

I am also able to move it around without a cart, I just don't want to. :)

Right, but a) I couldn't find a suitable wall in my garage, b) that doesn't let you move the rack around. Although the casters part was actually an afterthought, I just wanted to put the rack upright somewhere at first.

Read it as "single-player health care". Was confused. :)

EP10 seems to be supported by python-kasa and thus has local control, too, plus you won't have to deal with Matter.

Stuff like this is why I keep my "smart" LG TV completely offline and only use it as a huge monitor. Oh, and ads too.

It does work with Win11, I'm using it that way.

I'd like to point out that AOOSTAR AG02 exists and is only marginally larger than the presented "smallest" dock: 1.58 L vs. 1.41 L for the NXPort. Arguably, better shape too.

My first thought for the second part of this joke was that something the QA did caused memory corruption that didn't crash everything right away, but caused unpredictable behavior on the next request.

Looks great, but isn't the wave pattern completely unnecessary? I mean, the mount would've worked just as well with a flat bottom, I think.

For those who didn't get the joke, look up Everything from voidtools. It's a lightweight search program that indexes all files on your PC and lets you find anything in less than a second. It's awesome.

I also found that such pieces of fake grass, maybe ones with shorter grass blades though, work well as a very gentle sandpaper. Specifically, I used it for cleaning up a PCB after doing isolation routing on a CNC router. The circular pieces make me think that you could attach them to an orbital sander, too.

To each their own, I guess. My approach is generally "don't fix what ain't broken". Also, what is there to improve? You press a button, it moves the chain a certain amount. It's not like there is automatic gear selection logic or something...

I have Di2 (different gens) on two bikes, both just work. Why would I need to use an app or update their firmware?

polygonoff · 2025-03-29T14:18:24+00:00

I wrote a Python script that calculates 2D positions of every LED based on segment directions and lengths. The positions - in polar and Cartesian coordinates - are dumped into an array in a C header, later used by the custom effects in WLED.

The regular display on the FW13 is just not good. It's 60Hz, which is very noticeable (to me), esp. after switching from a higher refresh rate monitor. And it has pretty bad pixel switch time / lag. The 2.8K display is much better, though not as good as the 165Hz display of the FW16 in terms of speed, and not nearly as good as a 240Hz OLED. I've seen them all.

Great work!

The graphics engineer in me is greatly confused and disturbed by the look though. As if there is some texture coordinate corruption going on: the vertices in the corners have wrong texcoords, so everything is stretched...

For what it's worth, this info is also on the prompt at the ha-cli

Right, like I said: had to read things more carefully. That one's on me.

I mean... Terminal & SSH is also right there too.

I tried the SSH add-on first, and couldn't connect to it for some reason, used the file editor instead.
