Or how about 999 additional computers? They could be really tiny ones, running some kind of operating system designed for putting inside small single purpose machines. You could also add a coloured light on the front of…
I'd be interested to find out what sort of anti-islanding techniques they employ. Most inverters are relatively slow to detect grid failure, and if you pull the plug out quickly you might get a shock.
AS/NZ standards prohibit these sorts of systems. Even most models of Victron inverters are not "approved" for grid use without an approved external anti-islanding device, which also vary depending on which energy…
I've heard that pressure sensors are the most reliable.
How do you power them? I've used ESPHome previously to scrape my solar analytics for consumption in Home Assistant using $3 Wittycloud ESP8266's. But as yet I haven't found an elegant solution for powering them other…
YubiKeys support cli access with the benefit of being hardware backed, and optionally requiring a physical touch: $ ykman oath accounts code <slot> Touch your YubiKey...
I wonder if this approach still works with firmware tweaked drives. Anyone remember the "google" spec 320G Seagate drives from circa 2006? The ones with the pink epoxy"? IIRC they benchmarked with flat throughput across…
Reminds me of a similar story from a colleague regarding email an email that couldn't be sent with a specific subject. After much troubleshooting by L1/L2 techs it turned out to be a bit pattern error / broken ASIC in a…
Reminds me of this PDF I created more than a decade ago from a Postscript implementation of the game of life. Seems it still works, but causes MacOS preview to crash. https://andrewcutler.net/docs/joke/life.pdf
The only thing keeping Apache alive today is the need to support .htaccess files for PHP apps like WordPress and the like. For every other use case there are better alternatives.
Seems really interesting but there haven't been any updates for two years and I don't think the design is open.
Fumes are best avoided. They contain mercury. True story: I was testing the quality of the water from a property I was thinking of buying and got a hit for high levels of mercury. I called the test manufacturer and…
I built something similar around the same time to share BigPond Cable. IIRC it was a 486 based machine with dual NICS, single HD floppy drive and FreeSCO^ Linux based router on floppy. It was very reliable, and lived…
> This is how cars all use to look! Not exactly the same. Older vehicles used solid pigments without a clear coat.
GPS used in survey equipment is accurate to 2cm with ~5 second acquisition time.
Not to be confused with duplicity, or duplicacy backup programs which have similar features.
Pneuma-Plastic Casting?... PPC. It's got a nice ring to it. Don't you think?
It's so bad it's kinda cool. Gives me Lindows Rock vibes. Ref: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSdRTOh2jeA
Tool brands don't mean much anymore. Cheap and expensive tools are made on the same production line. I bought a set of GearWrench ratcheting spanners a few years ago and got a 16mm "Husky" spanner in the middle of the…
To truely make it "MyGov" they need to open up the code base and start accepting PR's.
It wish a tool existed that could keep boilerplate up to date. ie a tool that will find all files it manages and synchronise them with a canonical source. Use cases include keeping common (CI, Make etc) configurations…
