I do this with AAs. Basically put the side with the bump (positive) on the tip of the tongue and touch the flat (negative) side with a wet finger. It gives out a mild but distinctive ‘taste’, not enough to tingle but definitely something I am able to notice, when the cell has decent juice.

I am not sure if this will pique your interest but I find kinetic sand tables really fascinating. Sisyphus came up with it first and there have been a number of open source implementations in due course. One way is to implement it using a scara arm mechanism but they have the problem of load weight in the case of long arms.

I came across this design that rethinks the design using an elegant rack and pinion arm but still needs a belt that may go out of calibration over time. This looks to be improved further using [two, concentric rings] (https://frew.io/work/sisyphish) but this design is not available to explore/copy.

I have no idea about 3D designing, but I would love to create a table one day: something that will not need constant adjustment. If you get around to taking this up, I would love to see what design improvements you can come up with.

Yes, i think squid proxy would do the trick too. It even has installers for windows.

Thank you! This is what I was looking for.

This looks like a great collection of things that are exactly what I’m looking for and I’m surprised I never saw this mentioned when I was looking for things.

Just a question. It says it’s built around KDE. Will it work right on vanilla Debian without jumping through many hoops? I can get around quite well in the Linux world but some things still make me stumble.

I’ve heard only good things about world building games like Minecraft but I personally never could really get into it. Maybe I’ll give it another shot. Thanks!

I guess this is going to need the use of a mouse and so not suitable for the TV setup. But my child likes paint programmes so I’ll figure out the best way to let them explore this without messing with my laptop. Thanks!

Looks interesting indeed. Thanks!

Fascinating watch!

If you look at the image linked below you can see some arms in the closed position with a hole in the middle where the rocket can stand. They are just used as a platform to join various stages of the rockets.

Prior to launch, these arms are just opened up as seen in the original post.

Sounds good for setting the events up and getting notifications part. A good calender would also let you see the upcoming events in week, month at a glance. Cron entries are non sorted lists. Is there a cron visualizer like they have visualizers for logs?

I don’t remember how I configured it back then but now there seems to be a nice tutorial for it: https://community.jitsi.org/t/tutorial-etherpad-integration-in-jitsi-meetings/99697

It gives you a nifty tool to create documents collaboratively while you talk. If you are using Jitsi for somewhat serious needs, then I think it is a good addition to have.

I dabbled with it in pre COVID times. Yes, Firefox support for Jitsi was almost not there back then. Same went with mobile support. Getting others to install apps was always a pain. I never tried cooking Jitsi powered ramen though.

I have hosted Jitsi publicly for my organisation for a bit and all the while I was hosting it, there was not much difference between it and the one hosted by Jitsi. Sometimes the add-ons like etherpad etc are a bit of a hassle to configure. Sometimes these features offered by the online service are an iteration or two ahead since the folks at Jitsi are actively developing it and have access to alpha/beta builds that are a trouble to implement locally.

Since you are already considering the privacy concerns, there is nothing much remaining. Maybe uptime concerns if third parties are going to use your service too and will shout at you if they can’t access your service.

I also dabbled with hosting it through OpenFire which gives you more granular control over scheduling the meetings. Maybe you could explore that too.

Overall it is a fun thing and you feel fully in control.

Plus one to ViMusic. High quality music with a beautiful interface and customisable buffer for music you heard previously. What’s there not to like?

Does Immich support deduplication of images? I have a large set of old scanned photos that I put on photoprism that has deduplication listed as one of its features. It puts photos in its own database.

Also, how is the face recognition of Immich when compared to others like photoprism?

I met all of you cool guys here. Witness me!

Kevlar fibers are also used commonly in rocket/satellite manufacturing.

You can run a debloated version of windows 11 like tiny11 in 1.1GB RAM these days.
