Folding ebike can auto shift gears and power for smoother riding
  • All the shops in my area seem to be very downhill mtb focused. I have a few a bit further out I was going to browse if I can get some time. The bike market has been kind of irritating to me though with how I'll see all this cool stuff but its only available in europe or anywhere expensive to ship from really.

  • Vanilla OS 2 - Future Plans, Updates, and Next Release
  • Everything that people try to convince me is good about it just feels so counter intuitive. It also looks like it should be touch friendly, but I tried it on steam deck and it just absolutely wasn't. We have decades of touch interface design on phones and tablets yet somehow it's worse than the flop tablets that came before ipad. But to each their own I suppose. Some people absolutely love it and it works for them. That's a big part of open source computing, one can chose the desktop environment with the most unlikeable devs if it makes them happy.

    Anyway spin up a vm when you get a chance and try it. Try all of them if you can find the time. I find a lot of them kinda nostalgic and I really like tiling wm's for feeling like a power nerd and making my computer completely unusable to my friends. Mostly I just use kde though.

  • dualshock 4 mobo side socket for usb ribbon
  • it was the socket that I needed but it was recmended to me after viewing that. It seems to be referred to as contact connector on ali. I swear I tried almost every other word in the listings that never showed up until I searched "ps4 contact connector". Now if I search other terms again they show up. I don't get how ali search works.

  • Folding ebike can auto shift gears and power for smoother riding
  • I haven't tried any of the automatic shifters yet so I cant comment on the dollar value, but to this day I still fuck up my shift timing or choices and pay for it in my knees or scary gear and chain sounds. If any become available at local shops for testing I will at least try it.

  • dualshock 4 mobo side socket for usb ribbon

    !1000010053

    I need a replacement for the white plastic socket that the usb/charge board plugs in to. I used hot air to pull out a drifting stick but that also heated and fell off, and of absolutely fucking course, fell into the floor air vent and went on a grand old slippy slide away.

    Does anyone know the actual name for this part? Everything I have tried searching so far is apparently wrong

    Bigscreen Beyond Orders Should Now Ship Within One Week
  • Have any youtubers or such done a teardown? This seems tempting but I'm concerned about what ways it could be expected to break in, and how user repairable it is. Also specifically requiring an Iphone for the face scan is a bit tedious since I haven't used one since the original model and I don't know anyone that has a new enough model.

  • The PSN emulator RPCN v1.3 is out with online support for many games on franchises such as: Armored Core, Dragon Ball, Gran Turismo, Ridge Racer, Street Fighter, Tekken, Wangan Midnight and many more.
  • oh that's another nostalgic thing. do you mean the method that would bridge your lan to other players and you could do local matches over the internet? I remember doing that on the original hardware and also playing halo 2 with a bunch of friends every lunch break. Bowl noodles, a sandwich, and halo 2 until 5 min to the bell and we would sprint down the street back to class.

  • I love this kind of project. I haven't played much of those games but I lost my shit when demon souls network features became available for ps3 emu. I hope to see more network replacement in the future so we can all have that nostalgia hit in retirement or deathbed(this will be me) even if the original servers are down.

  • Working on a FOSS tool to convert raw work time data into a clean report for your boss or client. Any interest?
  • So this requires some kind of existing tracking software? Are there existing FOSS options for that part?

    My current job doesn't need time tracking (yet?, some of my work is for the sister company) but a job I worked before had us clock in and out for specific projects on a computer, but the subscription ended and we were using a UI glitch to continue using it and literally cheat engine to make it still export the files for the office to use.

  • North Van–Burnaby in the winter

    Is anyone familiar with what the iron workers memorial bridge foot/bike path is like in the winter? My new work commute goes over the bridge and I'm wondering if it is viable in the snow or if I should budget for having a car by then. Also the state of the trans canada trail from where it meets the bridge to willingdon would affect my planning. I have heard snow on the roads is poorly managed in Burnaby and I don't like biking on them to bevin with so I'm a bit worried. The north van side I have already seen and its a mixed bag of both excellent and awful. Maybe its a city and district difference but I've seen atv plows clearing bike lanes and other parts where the bike lane has snow above my head height. I have a second bike configured for snow and with mid drive electric motor now.

    ID help

    Saw these while looking at apartments but have no idea what they are. they were found mostly on carpet, but some were in other parts of the unit.

    edit: after looking up the suggestion of carpet beetle I am fairly convinced that it is indeed what they are. I also saw a few adult beetles that look like one of the species found in photos online. thanks everyone.

    Reverse emmc/microsd adapter

    So I used something like these some years ago to recover data off a phone, but I was wondering if the reverse is possible in having a bga soldered adapter with a microsd slot on top. Or if PCBs can even be soldered together like that. I've never actually checked if bga chips have raised pads or something. The purpose would be for rapidly testing custom firmware for shitty old devices that were designed to be replaced without removing the emmc to flash it separately.

    Companion plants

    Its been a decade or two since I've had any sort of plants growing but when I was last trying to grow I was looking into companion plants. There are some that are pretty much ancient standards like beans corn and squash, but does anyone know plants that have a similar beneficial relationship with cannabis?

    Is there much performance difference in ad blocking options?

    I'm currently using the blocklists included with unbound in opnsense on a mini PC and I have used pihole on a pi which now operates my 3d printers instead. I haven't tried any of the other network wide options. Has anyone made any blog posts or similar detailing performance testing of different options?

    I have an 8 person household with each person having at least a phone and computer and probably some consoles or something. I haven't noticed any obvious differences but whitelisting seemingly can't be done in bulk efficiently with my current setup.

    We are all going to be moving in the coming months so I am revisiting different aspects of the home network and trying to figure out what can be improved and if anything is irritating enough in it's current state to tolerate a potential performance loss.

    Does anyone know what to call this sort of fan optimization or have any reading material on how it works or how to design them?

    I'm trying to find out what purpose this type of design serves and how they are designed but have hit a wall with knowing what to even look for.

    This piece of the voron stealthburner is the only example I can think of off the top of my head but I have seen them before in some sort of fan duct or funnel thing.

    I've been doing modding on the deck with just the deck.

    So I've run mods on a bunch of different games which were downloaded and installed with the deck alone. No man's sky, lethal company, Subnautica, etc. with generally no problems but some modding software run through wine had visual bugs but the games worked as intended.

    So I thought I'd try something bigger and install fallout ttw. I installed the base games from gog without issue, and MO2 ran fine with my overridden default of wine-ge. Even the ttw installer seems to work... slowly. I started it two days ago and the picture is now. I guess some mods you really are better off using a beefier computer and transferring the final product.

    Seven ringed fingers on hand, wow on just one single hand!

    Dall e 3 via bing. The only way I could get it to all consistently plain rings not reminiscent of LOTR was making it Sonic's hand... with too many fingers?
