is there a way to pin comments like this up top? I've just spent 5min doing the same by hand, before scrolling all the way down to see this one
Comenius! I'll be damned—this is the first time I've seen anyone actually reading his Orbis Pictus. There's a country whose educational system basically revolves around Comenius (the Czech Republic). And even there I…
Kinda curious why You didn't go for the Fenix 7 / 7Pro line? AFAIK the "big" addition on the 8 was phonecalls/microphone on the watch and some increased water resistance for diving. All that for maybe 200-300USD price…
back in my day we used to upcycle old 18650s from old laptop batteries to use for Nokia phones. Since back in the day phone batteries were basically just insert-in and held by a clip-on backplate, it was just a question…
any tips on how to reliably get that "thicker gauge" one? I've been craving it since maybe 20y ago when I got a roll from my old stint in a restaurant. I've tried buying some rolls by "heavy duty" labels and these days…
at this point I'd wonder if the cat's name is "Princess Donut"
I'm not sure about the "question nobody asked". Bluetooth is perhaps a gimmick, but in all seriousness an electrically actuated derailleur is a blessing for anyone doing audax / long distance. I have my wrists damaged…
I think the answer to this is:"yes"
OK, fairly specific question - how did You get to that pants silouhete? It seems from the pics You went for something like a straight leg plus some extra room and fairly fitted waist / butt. Is that a response to a…
Oh, I'm not claiming sewing machine is the "only" option :-) There's plenty of hacking that can be done on the subject of sewing and I admit that laser cutter is a cool one. I'm still pretty partial to that sewing…
TLDR : "nice to have, but not a necessity" For some basic jerseys (think T-shirts) a basic zigzag is fine to begin with. That 100EUR sewing machine will have some fancier stretch stitch options that are slow, but "good…
For everyone struggling with clothes sizing and having a hacker mindset, I can't recommend enough buying a sewing machine (~100EUR on a used market, ~150 new gets you a reasonable starter one you won't outgrow any time…
Fiction (shortlist): -Some Desperate Glory (Emily Tesh) -A Memory called Empire (Arkady Martin) both of these are a fairly interesting take on scifi worldbuilding. Could be called "highbrow", but IMO pretty easy reads…
I admit it's a nice experiment, but I guess the title should be "detecting iPhone Lidar". Both the 60Hz frequency and 940nm wavelength are fairly specific. There's a whole world of different wavelengths (1550nm is…
Have You checked the validity of registration/insurance? I'm kinda curious about doing it the other way and trying some BDRs) maybe in a few years)
mind developping on the "it's DERP or nothing"? Have you been trying to expose a direct wireguard port of your own, or the Tailscale?
personally : proxmox /VM is great if You'd like to separate physical HW. In my case - virtualized TrueNAS means I can give it a whole SATA controller and keep this as an isolated storage machine. Whatever uses that…
AirVPNs main proposition isn't "we have a nice app / UX". It's "we give you the most configs / options". AFAIK they're currently one of very few that allow you to configure both port forwards and give you a stable…
true. My original was just a quick jote on a phone sipping a coffee on Sunday. I admit I simply didn't want to go into the whole "square FOV for the sensor vs. one detector / diode and that combined with the time of…
Also there's the simple physics view of the same problem. The advantage of scanning is that you can focus all the laser pulse energy into one narrow beam. Non scanning means covering the whole field of view at once with…
Shouldn't it be more of a "why" to install TrueNAS on a RPi? The only reason I can see is "I have one that I don't use". Because otherwise... Idle power isn't all that much better than a low power Intel N100 or…
Not even that. I think I had mine for under 150 (on some sale). Also, there are a few cheaper alternatives, but some tests have shown them to be less reliable (either false positives, or worse - false "all clear").…
thanks for this one. I've just printed my first two stacks of Multiboard for the office after only reading the license summary. The way they play with "Designed Works" and "commercial use" is really pretty weird. I…
As for the nanoKVM power design, I agree it's a pain. Not sure what's the state of things on the forums now, but in my experience, the issue comes from the device trying to draw power via the USB HID port instead of the…
oh, thanks for the reminder. Is that also a recommendation for the Strange & Norrel? I've been meaning to get to more of her stuff ever since I listened to Piranesi last Christmas when driving home through Europe.
