I watched a few videos before I realized Bobby Fingers is Mr. Chrome, and it made me unreasonably happy.

I don’t know what you think you’re seeing, but the airport is on the other side of the street.

I’ll let you know what I was seeing:

That’s an airport sign pointing the The Circle and they Hyatt airport hotels at Zurich airport. The whole complex is part of the Zurich airport, so I really have no idea what you are talking about. I mean, that’s literally how The Circle advertises itself:

I don’t doubt that there are also locals present, that’s how an airport works, after all. Honestly, we might just have a different opinion what constitutes being part of the airport though.

If it’s right across the street, why are there signs pointing to the different terminals in the building?

Honestly, I was about to comment how it’s kinda sad that people gather at a temple of capitalistic worship to watch a game (and an ugly one at that). I didn’t do it because my next thought was: hey, what if that’s their only option to experience a community for something they might enjoy and I left it at that. I mean come on, unless you’re kid and it’s the 80s or 90s, a mall is about the most soulless place on this earth.

Now I’m kinda glad it’s mostly just a bunch of travelers waiting at an airport that would otherwise miss the game.

Oh look, its Fabio.

Technically, wouldn’t you need the guy 10 minutes in the direction of the rain cloud to have turned it on when you go on a hike? Makes the battery saving argument kinda moot I guess, you should get the notification anyway, if enough people in your area are providing sufficient data for the short term forecast.

Now in order to make that happen, people should participate if they’re using the feature, but that’s almost a moral argument I guess.

Anyway, would still be nice if iOS / Android had more fine grained permission controls.

Oh, tell me about it. Someone in my household has a habit of regularly creating watermelon that tastes like onion.

Modern fridges have compartments with seals that keep the moisture a lot longer, designed particularly with vegetables and fruit in mind.

Given how political punk was right from the start, I wouldn’t call it “just a music movement”.

Yes, absolutely. Not all hinges are adjustable, unfortunately. In fact, I’d argue that most are not. Just have a look at the hinges at your place (doors, cabinets, toilet seat etc.), most will be very simple mechanisms with no inbuilt adjustment.

You can adjust the play mechanically, of course - that is, through application of a certain amount of force via deformation, which can be a destructive process if not done carefully.

There are hinges that expose an axial screw that allows for precise adjustment of hinge friction, but I have not seen those used for laptop display lids (nor did I personally encounter those in the small dimensions you would find on a laptop) . You’ll find examples of those at Misumi or McMaster - Carr.

If your goal is to increase the friction in your laptop’s display lid hinges, you might find that simply tightening all screws of and around the hinge often does the trick. Even though the main axial screw is not meant to be user accessible, it serves basically the same function and can tighten up the hinge. Tightening the screws used for mounting will ensure the lid doesn’t wobble. You will have to (partially) take your laptop apart for that, naturally.

If your hinge doesn’t have an axial screw at all and uses, let’s say a pin, you might have to employ another method, but that would really depend on the actual mechanism being used.

Absolutely, if there is enough plastic left, melting is one of the best options. That also enables mending plastic by melting in metal pins or strips via a cheap plastic welder for 10 bucks (success can be great, but it’s highly dependent on the geometry and how things broke).

Edit: no, as I said, that’s absolutely fine if there is a chunk of sturdy plastic to accept the insert. I just wanted to present another plastic repair technique for the sake of completeness, if somebody stumbles into this comment section.

This is correct and good advice. I’d like to add that it’s also an option to glue in a threaded metal insert in case a self - tapping plastic screw was used and the original thread is stripped.

by loosening the screws of the hinge.

lspci will read the vendor and device id via PCI and use that to determine what the device is. You might want to make the output a bit more digestable / useful via lspci -s 03:00.0 -k -nn, but I’d assume the ids that match an 2070 will show up.

Could you please take the card out and provide us with a few pictures from different angles, maybe getting a good look at the actual chips?

I’d like to rule that out before chasing rabbits here.

Also, you could always run nvidia-settings, which will show information about an NVIDIA card using a different access method.

I’d still like to see the pictures of the card though ;)

None of the training data for the commonly available AI models probably includes a significant amount of footage from endoscopic pipe inspection cameras, so no surprise here.

That being said, it’s absolutely possible to feed those images to a pre-trained model to continue its training and get good results.

This year, on some random holiday, I had to take 20ft of piping out of the walls and remove one solid block of hardened grease that had accumulated there, blocking the pipes, causing dirt water to flow back into the kitchen and into appliances. What a joy that was… the stench alone.

Don’t flush grease down the drain.

Yikes. If the second sentence of your ad reads So instead of blaming him […] she should question herself, we’re in for a good time. And that’s not even touching the idea that his many neglects can be explained away by what exactly, pussy odor?

Not a doctor here, but I’m being told applying a disinfectant might not be the best idea, although the medical details are by far not the bleakest thing about this ad.

To be fair, before it was promoted like this, it was actually used in Germany to combat Cholera. This dystopian marketing we see here is a US invention.

Fun fact: early Lysol was really poisonous and was used as the suicide poison in the beginning of the 20th century, readily available and all. It was also used for homemade abortions.

Great project, I like that you went all in and installed the solar panels - there is a nonzero chance I would have tested it with only a battery first, therefore creating a suboptimal solution that would have stayed around far too long, endlessly bugging me in the process.

Just one remark: the mailbox is so nice, you should definitely route a channel in the treated pine to hide / protect the blue cable better, that’d make it perfect.

You’re right about the plastic, but just drop the enlightened snark.

As for pottery, forging, casting etc.: completely different processes, different requirements, “vibe” - may not be possible for OP (ever tried operating a forge in a New York city apartment?), might not be aligned with their skills / interests, financial situation etc.

So, what remains is the question: do you believe 3d printing with plastic should be outlawed or at least strongly regulated as a private hobby?

Sure, there are cordless power tools. I am not sure what you’re saying.

As for your dishwasher: I’m sure it has received surface treatment as the people designing it made the connection dishwasher ——> water in their heads, so you end up with a surface that, while proudly displaying every fingerprint, at least doesn’t immediately pick up surface rust. Or it features one of the 20 types of alloy that are more resistant to rust. That apparently didn’t happen for the Cybertruck.

In any case, what I was saying: maybe plain stainless wasn’t such a great choice for the body of a car. Maybe if you really lean into it and intentionally add to the rust / accentuate the shoddy exterior, the overall design could work as DIY’ed, end-of-the-world, Armageddon - style Mad Max vehicle. I could see that.

Yes, you can get the “Powershare” option which will include 2 110V outlets in the cabin, 2 in the bed and 1 additional 240V outlet in the bed.

They have enough power to run an angle grinder, but that’s also about the only positive thing I can say about that car.

I can’t believe how run down it looks in OP’s picture, given how recently it was made available.
