Isnt chromite obsolete?

EDIT: Nevermind…

Spider89,

Opps. Got them backwards…

Spider89,

Whopps, Had bromite and cromite backwards.

Spider89,

I’m an inexperenced driver.

Feels awful doing anything minorly wrong.

Spider89,

I melted my plastic shower curtains in the dryer.

What’s worse?

Spider89,

I though it was fine.

It wasn’t…

Spider89,

I powered a PS5 controller with a US outlet cord joined to USB.

You could hear a loud pop.

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s 100% Clean Energy Bills Pass (www.huffpost.com)

Michigan lawmakers approved a slate of bills Wednesday night that are set to transform the energy systems at the heart of America’s heavy industry, putting the major manufacturing state on a course to generate all its electricity from carbon-free sources within just 17 years....

Spider89,

Debian Live?

Spider89,

It may be the way the are burned.

Try using Balena Etcher or Rufus.

Spider89,

I use nano.

Nano >> vi/vim, emacs

Spider89,

Simplicity > Complexity

Spider89,

The box monitors temp/humidity and soil moisture and Beeps/Flashes to inform that the plant needs maintenance.

Spider89,

A seperate config file wasn’t used, but there is a controller able to change the config.

Spider89,

Yes.

A custom soil moisture sensor was used.

Spider89,

I don’t exacly know what you mean, but the (generic) Form Factor of this device is:

  • Unimonitor. (Designed to monitor one plant. [Needs Changing])
  • Extensible. (CC-BY-SA CAD source, GPLv3 code)
  • Durable. (5mm thick wall, IP33)

The device is rain-resistant, but nothing fancy.

It’s wall powered.

It doesn’t use LAN/PAM. Instead, a local config and IR controller is used to modify paramaters. However, you could code this in.

Sould there be anything to change for the device?

Spider89,

There was IW4X. GPLv3, I believe.

Spider89,

Your username checks out…

Spider89,

This is a lock to anchor your device to something.

If you have a laptop/desktop. Look to the side and you will see a Rectangle

This lock uses that hole and this will anchor the device. (Just need a cable.)

The offical K-Lock used by kensington are these.

Get it?

Firstly, these are open-source for community improvement.

bending/tampering resistance by the use of guards.

Front guard disallows the shackle from being bent.

The Back guard protects the back shackle from bending.

The ring guard protects tampering of the guards.

(This info below may be inaccurate since I changed partial lock design. FEM testing wasn’t used right now.)


<span style="color:#323232;">The shackle is designed to withstand 2-7k netwons. (2k when aluminum is used, 7k if steel is used.)
</span>

(This was found on the web. This may be mild/severly innacurate. Take this with a grain of salt.)


<span style="color:#323232;">~200 Newtons are  required to move a car.
</span>

Also the shackle tip is round instead of square. This improves the shackle from V-bending:

Kensington Shakle tip: ====[]

My shakle tip: ====D

(Don’t throw out of context… :|)

And finally, it’s cheap and easy to make.

Spider89,

Unfortunely, I can’t real-world test since I don’t have a printer. But FEM tells me that this device does well aganst torque (Aluminum). Pulling/Yanking is good too.

Give it a try, Axiochus! ;) A test plate is provided.

Spider89, (edited )

A tiny nudge will be applied since the ring guard passes the computer’s casing. Thicker computers won’t have this issue.

Some propping may be needed since the lock is quite large.

Spider89,

The entire device should be 3d metal printed.

If you want a lighter device. Plastic works on:

  • Body.
  • Pin.

Metal is needed on:

  • Front/Back guard.
  • Shackle.
Spider89,

Yes.

With PLA, you can submerge your part with sand and use molten metal. (PLA Casting)

3D printer can also print metals. You just need a special nozzle and metal fillament.

Spider89,

Quick question?

Why do you want Tails on your OS?
