It’s for the belt tension actually! Like a guitar tuner. It’s just one tool in the process though as it is not just the frequency of the belts that matter. Instead the frequency/resonance helps get the belts into similar tension before doing more adjustment.

Spectroid is great! I use it to tune my 3d printer.

These are a passive component

I recently learned that SSDs do not reliably store data for long amounts of time when unpowered.

The only Windows reinstall I’ve had to do in years was when I unplugged my monitor’s integrated USB hub and somehow that completely broke Windows recognizing it.

Linux though? It’s typically user error in my case.

My HP printer has a special mode where it pretends to be a CD-ROM drive with the driver files on it. One time it entered this mode and I had to use a Windows machine to kick it back into normal printer mode. Couldn’t find any Linux way to do this.

The rest of printing from Linux has been smoother than Windows though. I have a Linux machine run CUPS and that makes printing from Windows easy.

Single core performance is niiice

The apple music app checks for a specific binary. Could be something like that.

Hacker News probably

I just want a consistent name for my home dir

Assigned system configuration at birth

Justified is the wrong word.

Is this a joke about the 2038 problem?

Or when the app has different limits than the webpage!

How is the z position determined? Is it with the probe or a fixed endstop? Check that there’s no play in those parts.

Sometimes the limits they tell you are wrong. Sometimes they truncate your password without telling you. Sometimes the app has different requirements than the website.

I’ve used Freecad for a few projects. It’s definitely usable, but the learning curve is really steep, even for someone who already knows other CAD. I don’t think the workflow/features are there yet for being able to use it professionally in most cases. It feels much more like an engineering tool than an industrial design tool, which is part of why I hold that opinion.

I have not used Librecad. It’s 2D, right?

I get better game performance in Linux, but I still use Windows mostly due to CAD software (just like you’re saying). I hope those companies see the value in developing for Linux, but I’m not sure the statistics are there to convince them yet. Chicken/egg problem?

That does not sound like trash to me. I can see how those issues with Google connections are problematic for some users, but as the article acknowledges, lineage is primarily targeting people who want to update their old devices. Sounds like degoogling is best done with a different rom is all.

ADB and Fastboot both run natively on Linux. I don’t think I’ve needed other tools since the HP Touchpad days. And that didn’t come with Android in the first place.
