Shepy,

You have misunderstood this. Saving a file from an image editor or viewer repeatedly will degrade it. Putting a single saved file in countless zips will not.

Shepy,

UK here.

Yes, 2 or 3 pound. Typically that’s about 10%.

I refer to it as the lazy tax.

Short side hamper handle from the top:

Long side hamper handle from the bottom:

I always enjoy prints that just become part of our lives (and especially ones that let us keep using something that's going to the landfill otherwise)

The hamper has handles that break. For most people I think that'd be time to replace it. I didn't want to do that, so I designed a new handle based on the handle on the short end. This ended up being a mistake later, I'll explain then.

I printed 2 handles (the connection between the two is just to make the printing work better since it can print the two pieces as one piece, then I just snap the two apart and clean up the spot they were connected)

I used my rotary tool to remove the remnants of the original handles. I should have used the cutting tool but I had the diamond grinder so I used that. It worked fine, I was able to fully remove the old material. A quick test fit confirmed that the handle design was pretty good (I just used a tape measure for the measurements so this was a real potential problem)

I went to the long side, but realized that the design of the hamper was different lengthwise than widthwise. I removed a couple tabs that were going to block the new handle, and instead of putting it in as designed, I just put it sideways, which fit.

I put the two in and added gorilla glue. Gorilla glue requires water to foam up, so I wet all the parts. Now everything is fitted, the glue is in, and it's just drying now. I'd consider this repair a success, and I expect the strong PLA part to give the whole hamper a lot more stiffness at those parts, and there's significantly more material in these spots that break. If the other two handles break, I'll just print two more, and at that point I can't help but think that the hamper will be bulletproof.

Shepy,

Cant view the pics as they are FB hosted

Shepy,

I have audiobookshelf, along with readarr for downloading and the two have a totally compatible naming structure configured so it works like a dream. Not 100% sure it was that way at default or if I had to configure readarr to match what audiobookshelf needed.

It’s annoying it won’t subfolder the server under domain for reverse proxy, but that’s not too much of a worry.

Possible to have different desktop folders for different workspaces?

I am a “messy desk” person and like to have a big open visual space for all the pseudo-temporary files belonging to whatever project I’m working on at a given time. It would be nice to have a workspace specifically dedicated for “work” and still be able to create a fresh one when needed, without having to “put all...

Shepy,

I got sick of some of the various Invidious instances taking 5+ refreshes to load a video, so ended up installing my own instance and its been a much nicer experience

Shepy,

Seriously worth a go, takes minutes to setup if you’re already ready for docker containers. Restart it often (dailiy is the official guidance, i find it doesnt need that with only me as user, i just do it when it starts to feel sluggish) - and I’ve put it behind a reverse proxy with auth to keep it to myself

Shepy,

Yup, pretty much :P

Shepy,

Happens a lot on the wheels on my studio lights, invariably full of hair - a bit fire singes it back off straight away then lube them works a treat

Shepy,

Have a look on xdaforums for your device, there will be guides. With the Samsung for example you have to enable bootloader flashing in existing rom developer options otherwise it will overwrite on a fresh boot. Gxda is a trove of info though

Marketing email's subject made me think my card got hacked (lemmy.world)

A hostel company I stayed with a while back emailed me with the subject: “Your booking is confirmed!”. This made me frantically check all my accounts since I hadn’t booked any hostels recently. I was super concerned until I opened the email and saw… it was a stupid marketing email…...

Shepy,

Would instantly unsubscribe, leave negative reviews and never stay there again.

Shepy,

Have you tried Newpipe? Lovely YT client for android :)

Shepy,

Wow, it’s only taken ios 13 years to get tasker like automation? Amazing.

New phone with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus: should I still buy a screen protector? (www.corning.com)

Basically the title, I received a new price with a significant price tag (at least for me). My previous ones I didn’t care much so they weren’t protected. Given that I’d like to keep this one in good shape I’d like to know your experiences: does it still make sense to buy screen protectors nowadays? If so, also on newer...

Shepy,

Got an S23 Ultra. Did nothing that I know of to cause, never keys in same pocket or anything. Have two 3mm long scratches in screen first week. Get the protector.

Shepy,

Out of interest, what’s the series? (Didnt answer the question as the post an hour ago covers it nicely)

Shepy,

Nice, sure that will be popular :)

Shepy,

Blocked reddit on my router, to prevent accidental clickage - no intention of going back there at all

Shepy,

Switch covers are the way I went, then you can still get to the switch if you should need to

Shepy,

Already lost that one to Liz Truss I’m afraid
