It resembles part of an electric motor, namely the windings (double t armature)

You can try "foremost", it isnt as easy to use but a bit more configurable - at least from memory (I have used it many years ago)

I use it for lots of stuff, remote scanning from an old Canon flatbed scanner attached to my NAS (powered by a really ugly phone-local bash script, nothing else), rsync, renames (or the like using one liners), ssh tunnels to different destinations (to circumvent IP blockages) and of course YT downloads (using the source git folder and running it using "python -m yt_dlp $OPTIONS $URL" - when it breaks, a git pull is all it needs most of the time, I also have local patches that are not upstreamed)

It does make sense though (once you know where it comes from):

Before the ubiquity of watches, time was announced using church clocks and bell strikes. There's a big bell for hours (low pitch) and a smaller one for announcing quarters (higher pitch).

Signalling zero is not possible using "zero bell strikes", so 00:00 is signalled by 4 strikes of the quarters bell and 12 strikes of the hour bell.

Thus, the sequences go like:

11:15 1x quarter bell

11:30 2x quarter bell

11:45 3x quarter bell

12:00 4x quarter bell + 1x hour bell

Basically it makes sense then as all the quarters belong to the same hour.

That and the professional gear is optimized for operational speed (e.g. a glassware dishwasher that has a 10min cycle for a bar. Guess how much water/electricity it needs).

Aard2 for Android exists since at least 2015:

I have many current and old dumps and can switch between a few years. Very nice in case of deleted articles or to check old time stamped versions. It also supports more than just Wikipedia like wikiquote or wikivoyage or cooking wiki. You can compile own mediawikis too

Why wait for the next TV when you can just disconnect the darn existing box now?

That's not how bamboo works though. It is hollow and needs to be processed into larger blocks

Src please

Is there more information on this?

I dont think one could reason that. Maybe some insight: The author is an engineer and had worked at Google and published the Goomics strip internally. It is also available at https://goomics.net/62

PS: Later he worked at Twitter and commented that also: https://twittoons.com/

There's another thing not mentioned. From the payload it looks like one may be able to spoof other customers' sensors by altering the serial (maybe it's a contiguous number) and replay the request. Heck, it is just one "curl -X PUT -d ..." command away, the info is all in the article

That doesnt solve stuff. I had to desolder the SOIC8 chip in an X220 because my programmer didnt like the power draw of the remaining attached circuitry that consumed additional power. I also upgraded OpenWrt Routers by soldering bigger RAM and bigger flash chips in the past

The pen's main function is to point at things in the TipToi books and its integrated speaker explains the thing being pointed at, or plays a song or whatever the book is about. There is a huge catalogue of books for e.g. learning names of things in the kitchen, at a farm, fairy tales and even languages etc. It's great stuff and works well

There are different models and the newest one has a record feature as well as wifi (for asset downloads, versions before need a download companion app on the PC/mac).

Edit: fix typos

I got ours all used in bundles. The box itself is rather repairable (broken silicone ears, dead sd card, dead battery) and there are sometimes very good deals on Kleinanzeigen classified ads.

Also what helps: resale value is great, so after the Tonies have had their time and your kids become older... just sell them off.

The compressor stations are alongside the gas pipeline network. These put in the energy needed to keep the gas flowing over long distances through the network.

Without those it would be just like a very very long garden watering hose that has a trickle of flow compared to a short one.

Get a used Rancilio Silvia + do a fully fledged Gaggiuino build.

Check this Video comparison (Not a modded Silvia though, but a Gaggia classic which I would not recommended due to its aluminum boiler and the new China manufactured models have a (probably Teflon) coated boiler that likes to shed the coating... just search on reddit). The emphasis in this comparison is on the Gaggiuino mod, which does all the magic (profile based brewing). The underlying base machine is not that important. I would stay away from Sage/Breville, too much non standard parts and lots of plastic for my taste.

Edit: many typos and some rewording

You're probably not out-of-luck. Just buy a heat element designed for your grid's voltage. The electronics' internal PSU might already be capable having a wide range input.

Besides that, I would absolutely not recommend you buy this.

Reason: the parent commenter already hinted in the right direction. The E61 brew group is ancient (invented in 1961 by Faema in Italy, hence the name), it sports 4kg of brass and many moving parts (3 valves, camshaft + lever) and features an analog pre brew chamber.

I do restore italian espresso machines for a hobby and have come to the same conclusion as the parent. Even if they're not maintained properly those things are meant to last and can in most cases be resurrected. Most spare parts are readily available and defacto industry standard (eg. The Brasilia ring brew head) and you can retrofit nice electronics easily (eg. clever coffee or the gaggiuino foss controller project featuring pressure transducers, pid controller(s) and a controllable Flow/Pressure rate, profiles, apps and so on).

This diy project is imho bland and uses the most ancient brew head available, with unnecessary heat dissipation, long warmup times and probably leaded brass...

But thats because the cutting angle changes when depressing the lever. The curvature is meant to counter that to some extent.

Yep, had that before. So i decided to cut away the Teflon around the 5 screw holes using a fresh (=really sharp) carpet knife. Nothing bent, no protruding corners, same gliding performance with just a different look from the now exposed holes at the underside...

You probably can remove the adhesive Teflon-gliding-strip to reveal screw holes. Then replace the lipo pack.

I recently replaced a broken left click Omron D2F-01F micro switch in my Logitech MX vertical (open mouse, desolder 3 Pins, resolder new part, put all together again). The lipo pack is tiny and quite accessible inside.

It is doable but a bit of a nuisance. Took me about one hour (opening, ordering, change part, put all together again). Working again, even better than before due to the upgraded premium switch

I disagree, there are lots of other countries that have this. Japan recently got rid of floppies, for example[0]. Most of all, germany is full of doomsday thinking and complaints like this one, which i see often here when HN covers esp. german topics

Edit: here's some proper example why paper is not all that bad to have, and actually beneficial in some cases (reverse engineering of Ticketmaster online-only tickets, bound to app)[1]

That is not booting a linux-kernel at all. it is just using the existing kernel which Android is based on (also Linux).

It is still in operation and is a nice place (sometimes a bit crowded...).

PS: the old purely mechanical doorbells are also still operational (can be seen in the photograph, the forged metal rod to the left/right of the entrances)

Needs a (2021) tag.

Ha, I remember that thread!

I did the same with a dumpster find in 2020. I saw the guy hauling and depositing it, so I asked and got it (2011 iMac 27" with maxed out specs at ordering time - radeon 9800, i7, 16gb ram, ssd+2tb hdd. Almost mint condition).

It had of course 2 issues:

- backlight was dead on one half of the screen

- infamous radeon BGA soldering issue, intermittent glitches & os freezing when it had warmed up

I resoldered the backlight connector (apparently broke off the pcb under mechanical stress) and swapped in a used $20 Nvidia Quadro that I had flashed with nick's hacked rom from the above thread.

I did not want to do some hackintosh mods to the OS so i went with (iirc) mavericks and sold it on classifieds for $430 after noone in my circle wanted it. I was also able to sell off the mxm radeon 9800/2GB for $30, placed the ad just for curiosity about it's resale value in such a broken state. :)

The money was just by-catch, the real joy always comes from resurrecting broken things (for me).
