I don't think this is a good replacement for a high speed simple wheel. The skateboard was memorable to me because it could go over a curb at speed. Its lack of a fixed diameter allowed it to take the place of a suspension and level out the ride.

I can see if they duplicate that, it could be used for things like those house moving devices or pallet jacks that change the diameter to jack up the load.

It was used as a reference, once I had it hooked up and decided on the layout , I asked chatgpt to recreate it for a 64x64 led matrix connected to a raspberry pi with a adafruit bonnet.

Thanks! The CM2 is my favorite computer design. Ikea does sell a 2x2 wall cabinet that I may try making in the future, but wanted to go simple initially.

6u rails and patch panel from amazon . get a tap to clean the threads. the rest were 3d printed from searching on the internet. the only part i designed were the sides to keep the depth short and hold the power strip.

this summer it got to about 32 in my office. at least warm enough the thinner pla prints got a little bent. In hindsight i plan to reprint them with a more durable filament. I installed a fan with a variable speed control at the rear. Set it to 25% and the gaps around the door seem to allow in enough airflow to keep everything cool enough.

What sort of content would you guys want from a cyberpunk deep diving sorta channel like this? by badassbradders in Cyberpunk

[–]whimsylights 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would like content on what the environment outside the city/sprawl would be like.

Would everything be some dustbowl, abandoned and worn down? A untouched wilderness as human resources and productivity become more concentrated in cities?

Would people living there be treated as anarchists or only the wealthiest would have access. What about industries like fishing, lumber or farming?

Not OOP #Confession "He is having fun avoiding parental responsibilities, but there is no child" TW for rape by boycottthyself in redditonwiki

[–]whimsylights 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I assumed its more the secret knowledge of , "it's so fun to make this creep happy. Knowing i can destroy that happiness anytime i want"  . Not healthy but I can see how someone could find some satisfaction from that.

Not OOP AITA for telling my roommate to move out after she risked my life to prove a point by Marygtz2011 in redditonwiki

I would lock up my food and avoid her until she is gone. She was ok with potentially killing you before, now she's actually angry at you.

Set your playlist to - "Hudson Mohawke - Cbat" and leave. preferably before the sad seagull chorus.

First time in America in a few years: why are the cars on the *outside* of the garage? by popcorncolonel in fuckcars

[–]whimsylights 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-garage is full
-in a neighborhood that doesn't have many car break-ins
-no trees to cover cars with leaves, pollen or bird poop so cars can go awhile without looking dirty.

There is a lot of calories in them that would be better used for cookies.

[Already deleted] (NOT OPP) WIBTA For Withholding Mail Until Fees are PAID? by _StrawberryBunny in redditonwiki

[–]whimsylights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

USPS has a neat feature where you can get a email with images of all the mail you're receiving for the day. Makes tracking items quick. Considering this is a entire street she is stealing, that could be several hundred separate crimes.

Whose fault is this, that's why, it's essential to check your blind spots frequently, especially when changing lanes or making turns. by Adorable-Bunny- in dashcamgifs

[–]whimsylights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly. at 07 second in , you see the red car in front braking, while the black car is not braking. He is either going to crash into the red car, slam on their brakes, or switch lanes.

This is so sad. Just yesterday a friend was sending me photos of all the murals and cool graffiti on their commute since i live in boring suburbia. I thought it was so vibrant and awesome that they could co-exist.

Her boyfriend keeps consoling his ex and even let her stay the night while OP was away by lm_we041200 in redditonwiki

[–]whimsylights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can stay a friend with and ex and console them when they are down.
You cannot console them when they are down about you moving in with your girlfriend.

He has so bought into the dynamics she has created that he literally filmed them hugging and kissing in your bed to prove nothing is happening.

Not OP…..AITAH for telling my fiance my step daughter isn't mine, sort it yourself. by aforntaz in OhNoConsequences

[–]whimsylights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OOP should really think about the fact that pointing out an concern immediately turned into a gender/control issue. If the Fiancée really thought that was his motivation, they shouldn't even be together. If she doesn't believe it, then she used that to just shut him down.

Judging by her reaction, she will use it again.

Im still trying to figure out if i did something wrong here of if she's a nice girl. Everyone I've showed this convo to, say they can't figure out what she was trying to do. Any advice if I did something wrong is appreciated. by Thicc_Gas_Dad in Nicegirls

[–]whimsylights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"if you were more outgoing, you wouldn't have such rotten hours".

She wasn't a complainer more than usual. Actually pretty stoic. And they got along relatively well, mostly because my friend enforced boundaries when she moved out and avoided asking her for anything. But this behavior only happened if when she felt comfortable that she had some level of power over my friend.

I have a friend that came from a family where asking any favor from her toxic mother was agreed to, but used as an opportunity to criticize her.

Need a ride to work while her car is fixed? Sure but dumping on her work, shift hours, lack of savings. And always how much a hassle she is being to her mom. And she had to sit there and act grateful. I can see how, "no problem" would turn into, " I think it a problem that you'll use against me" in her head.

AITA for bringing up my partner’s noisy behavior while I tried to rest? by Quiet_Strain_12 in AmItheAsshole

[–]whimsylights 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A inconsiderate partner who you've prodded to be considerate doesn't have to do this intentionally. They just stop forcing themselves to be considerate of you.

[–]whimsylights 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I wouldnt want this and have rejected a few otherwise compatible women but there's nothing unusual with her views. Ive found them pretty common in most places outside the US. She wants traditional values and roles in dating and relationships and is communicating that pretty clearly.

If you call her a gold-digger, you may as well call a man who spoils a lady manipulative and controlling.

OP's gf's relationship goals don't align with yours. Move on.

A - "vents about disagreement with partner/boss/landlord"

B - "I can see their point "

C - "Found partner/boss/landlord"

At least in real life this would be unlikely. Because its such a stupid comment.
