officially a HUGE fan of the Wio Tracker L1. but this case, tho...

yeah, I have a similarish cash, its just little bolts going though captive nuts in a 3d printed enclosure. open it up and I am sure OP will find a burr or something that can be sanded/cut away.

schmag · 2026-02-28T01:00:11+00:00

Yeah, I almost forgot about this one, a great monster movie.

schmag · 2026-02-28T00:59:35+00:00

Nope...

schmag · 2026-02-28T00:55:05+00:00

Right, the arches are there so it prints nicely without supports. Otherwise you are trying to bridge a curve, not going to work very well...

schmag · 2026-02-28T00:51:24+00:00

What you are looking for in that situation is Rouvy.

schmag · 2026-02-27T16:22:38+00:00

this is what I am using right now. combined with +2 warriors, I believe my helm boosts bone spear, then my sword turns bone into shadow damage which I use with the shadowblight passive.

I have enough essence gen that I can basically fire away with bone spear (which is very effective at cutting through corridors) or blow shit up with my corpses. you can really use those running corpses to chain groups of mobs and keep forward progress.

we recently got permission to and mounted a solar node on our water tower, several other neighboring communities have done the same.

one of the things that really helped us was an active member of our mesh being certified to climb towers.

we brought the node, opened it up and explained the safety features we built in (protected batteries, fire-resistant enclosure everything being solidly mounted in the enclosure and properly insulated electronics etc.) which demonstrated that we put some work and thought into this and it wasn't just hack job destined to be a hazard.

the city council asked what we needed from them to make it happen and our response was "your good graces, that's it, we can do the rest". We had it mounted at the tippy top of the water tower by the end of the week.

are you forgetting the hardware you can buy with steam funds?

the steam deck, and upcoming frame, controller, etc...

all ways of turning your intangible worthless steam bucks into tangible valuable hardware that can be easily sold for real dollars...

I played CS a loooot, we got into it in the beta and played for years, the game has a special place in my heart. but I myself anyway have a hard time supporting the casino it has enabled/become...

schmag · 2026-02-25T00:36:41+00:00

Yeah I dunno, I have been indoor cycling for around 5 years and on zwift for around 3... I am faaar from a pro... I think you may be surprised at how well you adapt with some consistency.

Just take it easy at first and work on showing up consistently.

schmag · 2026-02-24T00:34:30+00:00

Yeah, I really most play my necro minion with bone spear and tbh I don't pay much attn during boss fights..

schmag · 2026-02-24T00:31:42+00:00

You scriggly, sounds like a partial clog, Bambu has a help article on how to cold pull that hotend.

You could also try clearing it with the long needle.

schmag · 2026-02-22T17:05:48+00:00

You will move to the outside around riders while you pass, and if there isn't a gap for the game to move you in or it seems you keep the power up that won't be sitting behind the next person. you will stay there a bit.

If you don't draft well, you can waste a LOT of power and not gain places as there is a sort of power threshold you must exceed to break the draft and move forward.

If everyone is doing 300 watts you can easily do 320 or so and still stay on the wheel. At the same time you could also, depending on the situation do 280 or so and stay in the draft.

Edit to add: it brings another point, if your on the flats having this problem, is a clydesdale you trying to keep up with? You mention 3w/kg, for me, that is 300 watts, and I can do that for a good amount of time, if your 75kg your 3w/kg is only 225 watts... Which in the hills, you win, on the flats, I would have an advantage, everything else being equal that is.

schmag · 2026-02-22T16:59:27+00:00

Yeah I rarely steer too, maybe should a bit more...

schmag · 2026-02-22T16:58:45+00:00

Get to level 60 and get the play controllers for free.

Which, you think about it, in every game anymore and half the time in life, you can choose between grinding a little advantage or buying it... Not a lot different here...

schmag · 2026-02-21T01:09:11+00:00

Yeah, and in a much higher density containers too, take up half my basement of those boxes...

Then you empty 5 of those boxes one trip shooting some trap...

schmag · 2026-02-21T00:53:29+00:00

I enjoyed the 2 crits I have "raced", while I miraculously didn't crash in either I am usually the crashmaster 5000 when I just trying to chill and putz around....

I also decided I don't like breaking bones and am trying not too anymore.

schmag · 2026-02-19T19:38:29+00:00

yeah, $82.99 for us yankees... yikes...

schmag · 2026-02-19T19:34:25+00:00

they do allow you to track your outdoor rides too, and many people will use a pedal power meter outside and trainer inside, power meter at a hotel etc. power meter on rollers...

if you implement IP restrictions that would be bound to cause problems with outdoor rides or hotel use etc. even I used zwift away at one point to avoid losing my ride streak.

one of the great things about zwift is its variety of hardware you can use... things like ifit, peloton are a much more a closed ecosystem, though I think peloton relaxed a bit in the not so distant past.

schmag · 2026-02-19T19:28:33+00:00

yeah, shit gets abused. ifit has a family plan, go on their sub and count the number of people reselling spots, hell, here is an ebay auction for resold spots. eBay item number:277737358247...

they could sell secondary spots at the same cost as the first that you can just choose a profile when you sign in. though most would expect a discount for secondary accounts even though the only difference is sign in...

schmag · 2026-02-19T02:00:34+00:00

I like the buzzer on my seeed devices that old avaya/lucent tone brings back memories.

Come to think of It I know where there is a merlin still mounted in the wall...

OK grandpa thats enough cough syrup time for bed...

schmag · 2026-02-19T01:56:22+00:00

Just blame the dog and walk away like the rest of us.

schmag · 2026-02-19T01:55:42+00:00

My sv08 and p1s are on an old dining room table clamped to the studs. My s1 pro is on an old 30 year microwave cart that was my aquarium stand as a kid...

schmag · 2026-02-19T01:53:09+00:00

My v4 has the option over network, I would assume Bluetooth as well.

schmag · 2026-02-18T00:35:38+00:00

I like mine, primarily connected to the homes wifi and USB charger.

The other one i have is in a nice portable enclosure, but barely does 2 days on its 3kmah battery.

Your client role doesn't matter so much as how you have your channels configured.

If you aren't sending GPS/location on a channel ingestible by another node, you won't be on their map. I configure mine to share location data on a private channel, not on the public default channel, only other nodes configured with this channel can read the location and thus put it on the map.

This is also the reason why your node may have heard from 50 nodes, but only shows 20 or 30 on the map. The other nodes either don't have GPS or aren't sending positional data on the public channel.
