What ‘domestic ev’s do we even have?

Looks interesting. Can you post the recipe?

Does anyone have experience with Waterbird based in Waterloo, Ontario?

I'm used to printing with eSUN but haven't had a 3d printer in a while and not sure where to get it any longer (based in Toronto). I've got a Prusa Core One coming soon though so looking to start getting filaments again!

75179, Kyle Ren’s TIE Fighter. Up next, the 8087 TIE Defender. They’ve both been sitting in storage for too long.

Shorthand is hard to learn from and hard to troubleshoot in complicated scripts.

So what? It’s still relevant.

How do I find it? There are no links in your posts or in the sidebar.

From the Windows side (assuming you're using Windows to connect, considering it's RDP and not VNC), you can open PowerShell and test to see if the Raspberry Pi is even listening for RDP connections with:

Test-NetConnection x.x.x.x -port 3389

Replace x.x.x.x with the IP address of the Raspberry Pi. If it shows successful, then the Raspberry Pi is listening for RDP connections.

Do you know what RDP package you installed, and what operating system you're running (Bookworm, Bullseye, etc)? I don't have a raspberry pi with a desktop to test on, but if you're using xrdp you could try:

sudo systemctl status xrdp

Does this give any input? If not, then you'll need to know what package you installed to get RDP, assuming one is still installed even. If it does give you a message it might be a hint as to why it's not working.

If you get output from the above command you can also try:

sudo journalctl -b | grep -C 2 xrdp

There are much better ways of searching journalctl but I'm a noob too. The -b returns only errors from the last boot time, the -C returns that many lines before and after a match is found.

So that means the router isn't forwarding the ports to your devices. As others have said, it could be the ISP blocking it or it could be a configuration issue in the port fowarding.

[–] bravemonkey 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Do you have any service listening on port 80? If not, I'd close it in the firewall and disable the forwarding in the router. Also sounds like a bad idea to set your router security to 'low', whatever that means for your router.

You can use a tool like this to check if your ports are accessible from the internet: https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/

Reading this again too, I like the suggestion to default power to 0. A lot of this was testing to see how to do it at a dumbed-down level; the Python file I was testing in is a lot messier as is!

The code is intended to only run mylcd.backlight(power) if the power variable was anything but 1 or 0, but the initialization was turning it on unexpectedly.
