>>2977763I had a PLA mailbox handle in direct sun for ~900 days before it crumbled. when it crumbled it just went. I use PETG for shit in my car but even that melts on the dash and I need ASA for GPS mounts. I have a fair amount of other stuff outside but it's never in sunlight. PETG is UV resistant but since my mailbox handle lasted 3 years it was easy enough just to fire another PLA off in a nice color since my ASA was toothpaste green at the time.Oh I've also done a bunch of PLA on the outside of a vehicle on a roadtrip and it was all on black parts and they all glassed and deformed super quick in the sun. Similar experience with GPS unit inside, the real problem wasn't the dash temp but the black unit temp.
>>2977772it's unenforceable billslop but it's going to fuck a lot of stuff up as manufacturers try to comply and being offline is ever more difficult. it won't stop anyone from printing guns but it's going to retard advances and punish all of us trying to print princess peach (TM) dildos.>>2977773name three, preferably ones that accept US visas
>>2977773Not at all what I asked. This affects everyone.
>>2977772Its mostly hot air. Their platform/party/big-donators dictate that they have to attack certain freedoms. They don't expect to win, but putting in enough effort to get a bill in the news will satisfy the minorities they are pandering to and look good when they are up for re-election.
>>2977774Dark colours are more resistant to UV, but cause the object to heat up more in the sun. Such is the dilemma. But I bet PLA would last outdoors just fine if you painted it with a light-coloured exterior house/car paint, if the print geometry allows for that sort of treatment.
A few weeks ago we had a thread about paddle vs toggle switch grinders.How do people feel about rat tail/trigger grinders?
>>2977675Makes you keep both hands in the tool so, when it inevitably tries to jump in your face, you'll not end up in some LiveLeak vídeo.
>>2977675They're alright for the bigger 7" or 9" grinders. I wouldn't be able to do as much cool/ sketchy shit with a 4.5" grinder though.
pros: you're basically forced to hold it properly by designcons: you're basically forced to hold it properly by design
>>2977675it's fine i guess. only tried it on big grinders

>>2977431If you want native USB like the pro micro, you’ll be paying even more for an ESP32S2 or C6 or whatever. But in return you do get like 500kB of RAM and over 100MHz clock speed, two cores, wifi and bluetooth, and a decent amount of smart home automation library baggage if you want it.

Fuck this gay earth.I need some fabric with some cute pattern for a crafting project. Checked on etsy, but every seller I got to has at least one pattern that's obviously AI generated, so I'm paranoid that all of them are.Guess I'm gonna check out if there are any local fabric stores in my town, but I'm worried not even they are safe
I'm making pants, i switched to a heavy duty top stitch thread for the construction but now the backside is all fucked up, look at this shit. What do i do? Do i use top stitch thread in the bobin aswell? I'm going through a few layers but haven't had this problem before.

having trouble with electrical, outlet has enough charge to shock when i touch it but not enough to power a light bulb, I tried the light bulb in other sockets and it is fine. it is a gfci outlet at the end of the run. i get shocked but there is not enough umph to light a light bulb. can someone go over basic sparky trouble shooting techniques with me.
>>2974642> Bad neutral connection.This.Neutral is tied to earth, and you're weakly tied to earth by capacitative coupling. This is why those testers (the ones which you poke into the live hole and touch the top) work.But without an actual neutral connection, the current is in milliamps, maybe even microamps.
>>2977692You dont do this for a living do you
>>2975304I get the feel turning off breakers is a memeI reworked almost all my house wiring myself, and got zapped dozens of times. It's just a tingly feelSure I get being careful especially when you are in a narrow space and wear rubber shoes, but it's not industrial voltageMaybe it's cause I'm in europe and we got lower amperage?
>>2977692This guy thinks back stabbing an outlet is acceptable.
>>2977721I just dont enjoy getting zapped, It hurts. And one time on a job i opened a neutral bundle with the power on and a light in the stairwell that was on caught fire and the one at the top of the stairs burnt out. Backfeeding can be too intense sometimes

When and why would you use one of these, supposedly anti-kickback wood cutting wheels for an angle grinder, over a reciprocating saw or a mini chainsaw?
>>2977594Carving, odd spots. I mean, I'd never use one because I prefer having my fingers attached, but I could see some use cases. Also angle grinder is probably the second most universal tool, just about everyone has one, recip saw and mini chainsaw maybe not.
>>2977594when you don't have a lathe but you really want to make a wooden bowl and you need it yesterday
>>2977599>angle grinder is probably the second most universal tool, just about everyone has oneReally? I feel like among people I know, angle grinders are pretty rare except among people who do a lot of metalworking or use them occupationally. Oscillating tools are probably the second most (I assume we're both saying drills are #1), then recips
>>2977662It depends on whether you associate with woodfags or not. But that aside, I meant more in a jobsite sense, angle grinder appears sooner than a drill even, if there is demo work. Maybe burgers use sawzall more since there's more wood construction.
>>2977594I saw way too many people getting fucked by angle grinders and tile saws trying to cut shit is not designed too. Especially wood.

>bought 1000 good quality resistors>the higher quality means the leads are thicker, they don't bend at the same angle as the cheap chink shit ones I've been using, and they don't fit in my resistor footprint any more
>>2977674Yeah 7.62mm resistor spacing is pretty marginal on the thicker resistor leads. You can always squeeze them or put them up on angles if you’re desperate.
>>2977680this time round I suppose I can use the ridiculously tiny 100k resistors I once bought by mistake. I guess in the future I have the option of increasing to a 10.16 mm footprint, which seems rather large, or pick some wacky intermediate size that isn't a multiple of 2.54, neither option seems ideal
>>2977674>they don't fit ... footprintgive your resistors dignity by letting them get up, stand up, stand up for they rightsnot only keeps 'em cool, but gives you hundreds of free test points for your scope probe

>>2970340I thought people were just being weeaboos, but the moment I picked one of these up, my panel saws became worthlessIt can do 90% of the cuts needed, and quickly due to small kerf width. When it gets dull in about 6 months you just replace the blade. It's overpowered really so long as you don't gorilla grip the thing and bend the blade

Is there anyway to make a body mod that allows you to feel radio waves from a distance?

I found a deal on 4000 watts of solar panels for $400 but they are high voltage like 200 volts per panel. Am I correct to assume these are not suitable for DIY off grid projects?
>>2977362>Heh, I've spent $15k with $200 average yearly upkeep to save $500 per year on the utility bill, am I a genius or what
>>2977193True if simple 12 or 24V off grid system. Hybrid inverter chargers can handle (and also use) the extra voltage. They are 10 times as expensive but then delicious AC. Vevor has a cheap one.
>>2977448Well if the op wants to cheap out on spending $600 on a box i think there is a way to diy it and it could end up being cheaper if hes willing to put in the time. There are some things that are not practical to diy sure. Like soldering ram or making a fancy radio duplex transmitter or more complex circuits but this does not strike me as one of those things. Idk theres metal transformers from microwaves that have good iron cores though those are a bit scary and need to be discharged.>or you get socked to death
>>2977545>socked to death
>>2977378Depends on the "box"Cheap pwm charge controllers do what it says on the box. Run pwm to reduce panel voltage down to whatever voltage is needed for charging the battery. They may have some simple charge logic or may just a be a dumb "Here's 13.6v, enjoy". They are terribly inefficient and don't work if panel voltage drops below what you want out.Mppt use either a buck converter, or buck boost converter and a bunch of microelectronics to shift around voltage and current input vs output to match the panel as it's power output changes due to clouds, time of day, shade, etc. An inverter was also mentioned, in which case the, typically mppt, charge controller also has a DC to AC inverter tacked on, giving out whatever your country's flavor of power.Mind you, for any real power we are talking 150+ volt systems, can easily be 400, 800, or even 1000 volts. Not very diy friendly. On the other end, a small 24v or 48v system with a couple 100 watt panels can prolly make a diy controller feasible, but once again, a low voltage system of any real power will be passing around 100+amps. Not diy friendly.So no, unless all you want is a small pwm system to run a couple lights, you are not realistically going to diy anything to do with the "boxes"

>>2977665I'm not one to talk since i don't go to shows but i would never go to a show where there is a machine and a bunch of dudes, i want to be impressed by the machine
>>2977667A fair point for sure. But he could add to the machine after doing a tour and finding out what he needs for what music he wants to play. By the second or third tour he could be just the machine and maybe a guest musician to play along.
>>2977669I guess he could get a lot of hype inviting popular artists that he enchanted with a cool machine. He should drop his desire for such tight music and just make the previous machine more travel worthy
>>2977660I gave up watching during v2 when he got all the drum pads to trigger a synth on his computer and was obsessing over like 5 ms drop timesThe synthetic pads. The whole point was the janky music contraption and now you just built a really weird sequencer?

>>2970232bzzzzzzump for swarm season saw a wanted ad on cl for them already
I have barely had bees for a year. I'm worried about the colony getting too big and bothering the neighbors. My three stack is only about half full of comb but I wonder if I can make the colony smaller by removing some of the comb. Will the excess workers just fuck off?
Can I reduce foraging by feeding sugar to my bees?
I think my bees are honey bound.
I found a few of these beetles in my hive.
How do I stop punctures in my bike tubesHARDMODE: No Tannis Armor
>>2977001 an ad, here, really ?
>>2977555OP here, I said that because that seems to be the most common response, and they do look good, but they don't make it for my bike's size.
>>2977526Sounds good. Do you think putting two layers would make it stronger?
>>2977001get double-sided tape, the moderately thick rubbery kind and not foamy or flat kind, and put it on the inside of the tire, all arounddon't peel off the outer side, keep it on, you don't need to glue it to anything but the tireguranteed puncture protection
>>2977590You get friction issues. And if something can penetrate one it can probably penetrate two.Personally, I go with seallant in tubes. Less mess and fuss than tubeless.
