  • I'm sure a good lot of you, like me, had been anticipating/dreading that moment when we say, oh fuck this is it, for real. Like the BIG oh fuck. My question is, how ready are you?

  • LongFast for shitposts babyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

  • The Blues Brothers [Extended], 1980 (John Landis)

    Jump

  • Well that and because on my 100th rewatch or whatever, I noticed that the very first thing Jake does when asking about the car is light a cigarette, and promptly throw the cigarette lighter out of the window.

  • My absolute favorite line of this film is shortly after this: "Fix the cigarette lighter".

  • Leak confirms GrapheneOS & Motorola partnership for non-Pixel hardware - PiunikaWeb

    Jump

  • This is hilarious to me because other than a Samsung once (which made me go back) I had only moto... Until when I finally upgraded I wanted grapheneOS so pixel it was. Very happy about this.

  • TIL pediatricians are being used as a great source of antibodies.

    Jump

  • Looks like they screened it and then were able to reproduce the relevant antibodies in vitro.

  • Are Tuya local keys permanent (like a MAC address)?

    Jump

  • Thanks for your quick description! Did some reading and I can see why people are excited now. Right now I'm renting and doing a smaller area that my one router/zigbee radio covers pretty well, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye on Matter over Thread. Based on what I read looks like a great protocol system as I get into widespread coverage. It's exciting Matter is becoming a standard for all manufacturers and is compatible with local only stuff!

  • Yeah i like zigbee a lot! Although I havent really needed the meshnetwork aspect or had issues with wifi (ie: esphome). I've been reading about Matter, what's the Tl;Dr on why it's better than zigbee or just MQTT?

    Jump

  • I actually have a few zigbee devices! It was strictly just the price on these. $2 for both a bulb and a LED strip with the wireless controllers already on both made them a good part to have around. No way I would have bought them normally.

  • "re-adding to an account" as in an official tuya account? That makes sense. Awesome to hear about re-installing the app with no problems, thanks!

    Yeah, esphome is by far the better way to go, but at $2 a bulb (plus a short RGB addressable wifi LED strip), I'll take some headache until they break...

  • Question: Humidity controlled cabinet

    Jump

  • Not sure what type of humidifier that is but you may need a rotary one to get lower. There's a technology connections video on them. They essentially are silica that's constantly dis/recharging. They're very energy inefficient but don't have the same performance limits as compressor based systems.

    I got one earmarked for exactly this before I moved. They're simple enough I was planning gutting it and adding smarts using ESPHome. But moisture hasn't been an issue for me so the project is a low priority.

  • I have been mostly happy with my flashforge AD5X starting as a newbie. Its got a good range of material capabilities, but 95% of the time I'm printing PLA anyway. PLA is the most common filament by far.

    I will say I have had two hot ends (the part the filiment comes out of) get covered in enough filament they broke during a misprint ($40 repair each).

    I don't really have experience with other makes/models but that is my loose endorsement of the AD5X. My only real complaint is how expensive the nozzles are compared to other brands.

  • The audacity

  • That would make me delete it instantly and leave a bad review.

  • I think we can both agree tautology works because it works, and that's good enough for me.

  • Well, them and the bandits, I'd imagine.

  • Fun/interesting things to self host?

    Jump

  • I spun it up it up in may to fool around. Today I opened a brand new air purifier and imeaditley disassembled it to flash ESPHome firmware on it. It never once ran stock.

  • We Surveyed 2,158 Self-Hosters: Here's What Keeps Us Hosting

    Jump

  • One thing I've noticed: my self hosted services are rarley, if ever, hounding me to check out features. I cannot emphasise enough how much I loathe a program fighting for my attention.

  • 3D design software for 3d printing?

    Jump

  • Maybe? It was/is on an old win10 I keep around (and came with it).

    There's a million better options, but I was glad it was there. Good way to get some kid fooling around early the way paint did. You used to be able to scan things with your surface and import them into builder (this was a good while back).

    Jump

  • I'm going to toss out Microsoft 3D builder, strictly to dip your toe in the water. It's bare bones and basically MS Paint but when I was getting started I used it for very simple stuff. I still use it if I'm making dead simple modifications/combinations of existing .STL files.

    Microsoft actually had some cool ideas in the early/mid 2010s. Still had all the proprietary bullshit but there was at least nifty stuff going on.
