I am using an old HP Pavillion 15 to make a tablet. I have all of the internal components, and am making a shell. Does anyone know what the easiest way to make a case for those parts would be?
This is the replacement controller I built for the wheelchair lift. The controller itself is in the middle. The four board on the left and right are a testing harness. The red and black wires are 24VDC and the green and white ones TX and GND for monitoring with a terminal program on my notebook (puTTY)....
What a load of crap. I knew Netflix was expensive, but ten bucks a month per person with ads? That’s unreal! Even bundling only gets that down to ~$7, which is still BS.

@kde - are these available somewhere as full res pictures already? And/or will they be after the desktop is chosen? Or will only the chosen one be available?
I was gifted a plant a couple months ago. I’ve been a bad parent and have not taken proper care of it. If I miss a watering, it’ll get all depressed like this. After attending to it, it usually recovers within a week, but this time it is having a hard time. Beeple, will it recover or is it a goner? Could I have overwatered...
It kinda looks like a marigold to me. If the leaves are crunchy, it’s underwatered. There’s a chance that some of it is still alive so you may see some small growth start to pop up - but usually, everything that’s crunchy is totally dead. If it’s mushy or limp, it’s underwatered - which unfortunately is probably worse.
Is it a hardware raid or a software raid? If it’s software (not sure abt hardware), the discs themselves should have the array’s metadata on it, and you can just use mdraid & restart the array.
Great explanation. Yes - I’ve done this before! Built up a system with a RAID array but then realized I wanted a different boot drive. Didn’t really want to wait for dual 15Tb arrays to rebuild - and luckily for me, I didn’t have to! Because the metadata is saved on the discs themselves. If I had to guess (I could be wrong though) - I believe ‘sudo mdadm —scan —examine’ should probably bring up some info about the discs, or something similar to that command.
Yeah, what…? My shower uses ~2.5 gallons per minute, and at a cost of $2.55/thousand gallons where I live, that’s a total of ~$0.003 (a third of a cent) to turn it off for 30 seconds while I soap

I just saw a post about this on the Lemmy Connect community and thought it would be a pretty neat feature for Memmy as well. Something to filter communities by keyword. E.g. block any community that has “meme” in the name somewhere. It would work differently from the other filtering types, I believe....

I do like that idea. I think Apollo (or one of the Reddit apps) had something that expanded the hit box on links to prevent that as well - that could potentially be useful, too.
Can confirm - when our company is done developing a product, we’ll sell the NAND to a third-party vendor that uses it for stuff like this. Sometimes (most of the time), we sell them perfectly good NAND. We don’t even sell pre-qualification NAND - they won’t buy that. Although the NAND reclaim market has been pretty much killed by falling NAND prices recently.
I do agree with the plastic brick part - but there is actually reasoning behind that second part - the read-only mode. That happens when the flash is down to a very low amount of life left (usually predetermined by the manufacturer). It is by design because the flash will degrade further if you continue to write to it, so by forcing it to read-only mode, users can still recover their data in a failing/aging SSD. Not to say it isn’t a huge pain in the ass when that happens though, lol
Ahh, yeah. Neither would I. I would expect my USB sticks to last longer than that, lol.
That aside - here’s a fun fact. We sell the NAND from scrapped SSDs that we no longer need for development to a third-party vendor that actually desolders it and uses it for flash drives. So… you never really know what kinda flash storage you get on your flash drives! (Or… we did do this, until the program recently got shuttered because NAND is so damn cheap now)
