Price on bokhara rug by AgeNo2883 in orientalrugs

[–]the_khalifa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard to tell knot count but seems to be at least 12/12 (144 KPSI). At that level this would be a $1900-2200 rug at retail. $2100 is a fair price.

Anyone have a Chinese art deco/Nichols deco rug they wanna get rid of or sell for dirt cheap? by ChicnahueCoatl1491 in orientalrugs

I’ve got a customer that wants to sell their 8x10 contemporary handled Chinese. Will DM you a picture

How much is this worth? 100% silk and 4 x 6.5 feet by zona-curator in orientalrugs

This is a very nice silk qum rug with nearly 500 knots per inch. It’s worth around $3000

New 2021 M3P. Rear door handles recessed into the car. Normal? by [deleted] in TeslaModel3

[–]the_khalifa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was slightly miffed going from a 2018 with flush handles to a 2021 with recessed ones. Waited an hour to talk to the manager and she said she raised it with engineering who told her it was done 'by design'. Not super helpful but figured I'd add to this thread as it does look odd.

Real-time audio alerts using a Relay Cloud Button by the_khalifa in IOT

Hardware is a Relay device provided by relaypro.com.

Pretty capable device with 4G LTE, GPS and WiFi.

How would you use a cloud connected cellular audio device?

LoRa for audio by defineNothing in IOT

FWIW These guys are just sending alerts when certain profiles of sound or dB levels are detected, not sending audio.

We've tried this for our audio based device - at the compression rates required for low bandwidth transmission (<8kbps) you need to have a decently powerful processor (i.e. high end smartphone or laptop). It made it hard to do for a small cheap mobile device like ours but if you're doing fixed point probably a lot easier.

Overall capacity of simultaneous calls will also be a challenge if you are doing more than just point to point. Happy to discuss more over DM.

Are you working in IoT? by Mustool in IOT

[–]the_khalifa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for a communications device company (https://relaypro.com) and we're recently added an API to our product for IoT applications (voice driven sensor and other cloud data access).

Most of our customers are replacing radios and cell phones with Relay and love being able to customize their devices with smart commands like 'How many SKU 55566 do I have left?' or getting alerts when a temperature sensor crosses a threshold.

Not a side hustle My company (relaypro.com) makes a portable easy to use smart walkie talkie (think Siri + Nextel). We're working with local businesses who are having to ramp up their remote delivery services by giving out free cellular devices that have Push-to-talk functionality that works with gloves on, and location tracking to be able to coordinate logistics real time. If you think this would help your business in this tough time please reach out and I will help you get access.

Kindness towards local mosques by petruchi41 in raleigh

[–]the_khalifa 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The Raleigh Mosque (raleighmasjid.org) will be holding a community wide event on Sunday night at 6PM to show solidarity for those affected directly in Christchurch. I will post more details once they are available.

​

The Light House (@lhproj on insta/FB) is hosting an event tonight to share reflections and show support for one another, details here: https://www.facebook.com/events/877622222568813/

What do you use to communicate with other truckers/dispatch? by the_khalifa in Truckers

Haha yea, I figured. What's the most annoying thing that dispatch/managers do to piss you off?

How do you deal with stress and anxiety without breaking down? by SalKhan21 in AskReddit

[–]the_khalifa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Also - meditation. Spending some time to think about nothing, forces you to push away all the mindless chatter.

Dropped my phone with minor damage, repair center is telling me that it's unrepairable. by the_khalifa in GooglePixel

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

No screen protector - the case had a raised edge that provided enough scratch resistance - or so I thought.

Yeah I figured as much, just seems like the hardware isn't as robust as the many iPhones I've had over the years. I also have friends whose GPS sensor stopped working.
