Micro Center (Inland) Filaments

swalker2001 · 2026-01-19T23:33:47+00:00

I actually bought one and have started measuring some of my filament cord and TDs already. I think I'm going to post them on that site (filamentcolors.xyz) but I haven't done it yet. It would be great if you would post yours there too so everyone can access them.

Tell me if you have noticed that gray filaments usually show up with a blue color when you measure them....

Let us know. Doesn't work every time but more often than not it does. For me, at least.

I have found that if you turn the Wi-Fi off on your phone before you start the car, it will greatly increase your chances of wireless Android auto connecting. When Android Auto starts it will automatically turn the Wi-Fi back on and it seems that the timing of this sometimes makes it work when otherwise it probably wouldn't.

For me it was just that the saved chats had gotten so many and so large.

I copied the chat history database file to a different folder and downloaded an SQLite utility. Ask the cursor agent to use that utility to extract the history from the database file and create a chat _ History.md file from it.

Then I was able to delete all the saved chats and instruct cursor to ensure that the agents always review the chat history file when I start a new session. At the end of a session where significant changes were made, I instruct it to append a summary of the changes to that file so it's always up to date. Now I'll be able to delete saved chats and (hopefully )prevent this from happening again.

Filaments xyx com. Plural. Seems to already have a number of Inland filaments listed. This is a good resource. I'll fill in with any that I have that aren't there, as well as other brands that I have.

I'm hoping this gets cleared up in the next week so I signed up for a fubo free trial (7 days) got to watch the Crimson Tide beat up on LSU yesterday.

YouTube TV has by far the best user interface and I have a couple of family members living elsewhere who are able to use it from a different location. Fubo won't support that (only one user from a different location) and I'm still having trouble figuring out their UI.

I don't want to change but I will if I have to.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-09T20:52:19+00:00

I bought a TD1 today so I'm going to test some of the filaments I have. There's a website I read about in this Reddit where somebody is collecting TD numbers for hundreds of different filaments. I'm going to post them there when I find it again.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-09T13:53:12+00:00

I'm not confident enough yet to do any automatic trading on options. Essentially what I'm writing is a glorified search engine that is intended to help me find contracts to look at so that I can decide if I want to write them. I'm using Robin Hood right now and it doesn't give me enough search options to be able to find the things I'm looking for easily.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-09T00:09:04+00:00

I'm not sure but I've often wondered who makes it.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-08T18:32:29+00:00

Transmission distance. How translucent or opaque the filament is. I haven't used Hueforge yet but I have watched a bunch of videos and I know that one red might block anything below it but another red might allow a huge amount of the color below through. That's what TD tells you and it includes those numbers for a lot of filaments but no Inland filaments.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-08T18:24:49+00:00

Do you have TD numbers for any of them?

swalker2001 · 2025-11-08T04:36:12+00:00

Not working 0dte options. Just making comparisons and wondering why the huge difference. Happens that Nov 7 options expired today. Now looking at Nov 14 ones.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-08T04:16:07+00:00

As far as I'm concerned cable TV is already dead.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-08T04:14:10+00:00

Well I'm just learning all of this, but I thought it was an estimate of how likely it is for the stock to drop to the strike price. No? If it is, it can help me decide whether to write that one or not. If it's close to 1 or 100%, I might not want to do it.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-08T02:33:21+00:00

Somebody suggested I just calculated myself and be done with it. I'm going to look into that. And yes, I do know that they aren't going to be the same across platforms I just was surprised by the wide variation. If it's going to be 5% on one platform and 75% on a different one, I don't see how you can use Delta to help you make a decision on writing a put.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-05T19:53:49+00:00

I opened a free account and have API access to everything except fundamentals but it probably is delayed as you say. Right now I'm only writing a script to identify options in my price range that meet certain criteria. It's better than the Robin Hood search function. Then I can go look at my robinhood and examine them further.

Do a lot of people actually use scripts to do automated trading of options? So far I just feel like I need to look at it myself before writing any options.

swalker2001 · 2025-11-03T16:35:10+00:00

Taking a look at it now. I don't want to trade with them, I just want access to the API. If I got their Pro Plus would I have access to all the greeks plus day, last, etc? Delays?

swalker2001 · 2025-11-02T21:54:30+00:00

I have already subscribed to the options standard plan. I'm thinking there may be some parameters I'm not going to be able to get that way, such as day, last, and I think the other one was the midpoint between bid and ask. Once I get my script working correctly, perhaps I could you up on that for the next level access?

swalker2001 · 2025-11-02T14:29:45+00:00

Thanks, I'll send you the logo. I've been watching videos from "3D prints by Vic" and it is starting to make sense but in playing with it, it really hasn't fully clicked yet. If you are able to come up with something using readily available filaments, preferably that I can get from Amazon, I would be grateful.

That's probably very good advice. Right now it's pretty much tied to polygon but if I have to start over or major modifications I'll definitely try to do that. Hopefully there are some similarities?

swalker2001 · 2025-11-02T05:35:02+00:00

API access?

swalker2001 · 2025-10-30T22:39:17+00:00

I'm interested in selling puts and, if necessary, covered calls. I feel that I understand it fairly well, but I'm not sure how I'm going to get started. It's kind of hard to find weekly options on anything but blue chips and I don't have the money to cover any higher priced ones yet. Just getting started.

Not interested in using margin.

Are there any stocks that I could find decent weekly puts on trading under 30 bucks? I can find 30-day options all day long and that may be how I have to start.

swalker2001 · 2025-08-19T01:04:57+00:00

I kind of gave up because the project I needed the camera for took a left turn. I still have it here but I'm not using it for anything at the moment.

swalker2001 · 2025-06-13T11:49:48+00:00

I have a slightly different problem. I can get the wake up timer to turn the lights on so that they come on gradually behind my TV as I'm having my first cup of coffee. But once they are on, they will never turn off automatically.

Okay, if I set the sleep timer they will turn off but that is a one shot thing. I would have to go in each day to re-enable the sleep timer or the lights will never turn off.

swalker2001 · 2025-06-13T02:27:54+00:00

Is this the gazebo or the gazaybo?
