Noticed a house about 100-200 feet away has an anemometer, and I'm guessing other weather related sensors. Wonder if I can get an SDR to pick up the signal and if its rude to do so…

@wavefront just bought pre-terminated cables that are about the right length.

Anyone have a suggestion for a cheap soundbar style computer USB speaker? Something with no LED barf and that doesn't look gamery.

paul,
@paul@tapbots.social avatar

@agiletortoise keyword ”cheap", just something to have The YouTube running on the background. Anything where quality matters I'll just use some set of nice headphones + amp/dac.

@jefflopes I was actually looking at those, just thought the soundbar style was cleaner.

@teomatteo89 @jefflopes do the keyboard volume keys work on those?

I ended up getting a Creative Stage Air V2 and it sounds OK but has two big issues. 1. The audio coming right below my monitor feels super weird, not sure if it’s something I'd ever get used to. 2. Piano Black plastic 🤮.

Might switch to wall mounted Pebbles but cable length could be problematic.

A bit over 700 miles at 15.5mpg. Not great but it’s pretty terrible even when not towing. But hey at least felt super stable.

Fun little thing: wrote some code that tries to get the predominant background color from icons so that I can use better placeholder colors in a future update to @Opener. Seems to work pretty well.

@timonus i remember trying a half dozen different approaches to do that the fastest way possible. Was lots of fun.
