“That niche, that space in bourbon is a pretty specialized product. They can try and fill it but they can’t do it in any legitimate way and call it bourbon, it would be illegal,” Bricker said.

Uhh. Tell that to Cheddar, Moz, Champagne.. And a million other protected trademarks that the US has just used.

Canada can put fermented maple syrup in a bucket and call it bourbon if they want to.

Tim Tams yes (Australian, but they'll do haha), but never heard of the Tim tam slam...

Yes, Indian food is incredible, we are in agreement there. The best biscuits, in our opinion, are Dark Chocolate Digestives (blue package), dunked in breakfast tea just long enough to soften the chocolate. I prefer 3 bites. She prefers to take the whole thing and sho.. Well, you get it.

But does the drop test take into account an external hammer when thrown at high velocity in a shoe?

If so, they really swung for the edge cases on that one. Their manager would have been upset they wasted productive hours on that until this happened.

My partner is British and we are in the US, so we end up hunting for stuff like this all the time. Luckily a market up the road happens to be owned by a Brit, so we can at least get tea biscuits there.

I forgot to set my printer to the internal only IP range and it updated when I turned it on. Hopefully mine is OK, or I can find old firmware.

And @[email protected], welcome. Others have recommended some useful communities, but as you join the Fediverse, which is distributed across many servers, a useful way to find new communities you like is: https://lemmyverse.net/communities

There are also an absolute ton of free and open source app choices. I personally prefer Thunder for the customizable options, but everyone has their preferences.

Enjoy exploring!

Don't F with the power grid.

Sentences are always harsh for anything to do with those who provide for public utilities.

@[email protected] has a comment about sabotage, which was likely a factor combined with this to drive max recommended sentencing.

I don't see it from installs direct via Obtainium, either.

This would be hard to quantify. A year of work one year ago would take significantly less time now since the knowledge exists.

ARM and RISC are not equal. The fastest current RISC CPU is an absolute potato. Then you've got ARM-based chips way faster than a Pi. Then there's silicone like the M4. It's a big uphill for RISC, which is why this, and the investments from the Chinese, are good but longer-term plays.

 

Trying to figure out if there is a way to do this without zfs sending a ton of data. I have:

  • s/test1, inside it are folders:
    • folder1
    • folder2

I have this pool backed up remotely by sending snapshots.

I'd like to split this up into:

  • s/test1, inside is folder:
    • folder1
  • s/test2, inside is folder:
    • folder2

I'm trying to figure out if there is some combination of clone and promote that would limit the amount of data needed to be sent over the network.

Or maybe there is some record/replay method I could do on snapshots that I'm not aware of.

Thoughts?

Since everyone here seemed to like my Pegboard designs, I figured I'd share this as well. When making the Only Sensor (see the home automation community or my site), I used this Solder Fume Extractor to keep my lungs nice and clean.

Fully 3D printable, and a full bill or materials on the link. Enjoy!

Hrm, not sure why the image returned a logo, but here it is:

So, I think I got backwards-deck. I play Rocket League, so input lag is a big deal for me there. However, the issue I have seems opposite of what I see online:

  • Using deck controls has noticeable lag
  • Using a wired X-Box controller has noticeable lag
  • Using a Bluetooth X-Box controller works pretty good

Can anyone think of why I would have such bad lag on the built-in controls?

EDIT So this might be display, not input lag!

  • Set Gamescope Disable FPS Limiter On
  • Set Gamescope Allow Tearing On
  • Set Rocket League Vsync Off
  • Set Rocket League FPS to 144

The deck works a lot harder, and fans go crazy, but it's playable without an external monitor now. I think in limiting to the didplay's 60hz, the Deck must be doing something else causing display lag.

 

So I have a debate in my head right now about how I should handle devices stored unattended in vehicles. The criteria:

  • Devices have new versions of Android
  • Pass phrases or many-digit pins are used
  • Biometric login is set up (but can't be used in Lockdown Mode)
  • Have Bitwarden installed with biometric auth for the vault
  • Has SSH keys on the device

I'm not worried about nation state attacks, but am considering the vector of a tech savy thief, and want to keep SSH keys and other device data secure. Assume they cannot be stored in a vault.

Is storing the phones on but in Lockdown mode enough, or should I turn them off completely? Off would be super annoying to wait for boot every time, but I'm not totally sure how KEK works for an encrypted device with biometrics set up but in Lockdown Mode where they are disabled.

 

Anyone else in this boat? It was said by a Bamboo user when I was chatting about my modded Maker Select and the Voron I'm about to build.

I do use the printer a lot for designing and making projects like the sensors I just launched or the Twystlock for Steam Deck, etc.

But I like tinkering/making more. For example I used to mod video game consoles more than I played them, so the comment made sense to me.

 

Hey all,

A couple of weeks ago I posted my 3D printable pegboard organizers, and today I’m releasing the Only Sensor line of home automation sensors.

Fully free and open, complete with wiring diagrams, cases, component bill of materials, and instructions for assembly.

You source and build them yourself, with acquisition costs ranging from $2-$35 to build, and options for:

  • mmWave presence
  • PIR motion detection
  • Temperature
  • Humidity
  • LUX
  • PM <10µm AQI
  • PM <2.5µm AQI
  • PM <1µm AQI
  • NOX
  • VOC

All integrate with Home Assistant via ESPHome.

All the details can be found at: https://nowsci.com/only-sensor/

 

Had this user try to do a PR on my webbian project in hopes of an auto-accept. They literally have a repo called virus. Reported, of course, but found it funny.

 

Because they couldn't. He bought the bag before they automatically tracked all purchasers with a unique ID on the bags they sell. The CEO of PD actively called the tip line.

Release: Custom Pegboard Organizers (lemmy-ui.nowsci.com:33443)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I've been custom designing pegboard inserts for all of my workshop items to clean things up. Figured since I release most of the things I create to various communities, these should be no different ;)

$345 to tap Attend. A rediculous event on a local hiking group. We think the owners let it expire, and someone else bought up the group.

For those not aware, Meetup's leadership has been pushing the "start a business on Meetup" agenda. It's all downhill from here.

There's a part as a sniper, I think, and maybe it was third person mostly? The name was initials that remind me of XKCD, like that sound, but probably 3 letters. And I feel like the character wore white cloths. PC game. This is a stretch.

 

It has fInally happened. And Technology Connections approves.
