I've been dragging my feet because I Keep getting a friends and family discount on Lightroom Classic from an Adobe employee friend. But I really, really should... If I can also move away from Illustrator for map making, I'll be se

Resolve? How is that a replacement for Lightroom Classic? I've been looking at CaptureOne myself as a replacement...

https://nuxx.net It's where I've put my personal thoughts / things I want to publish publicly for... years now. The focus is more on the content than the platform, so it's a basic WP site that's easy for

As a mapper (into OSM), the Strava Heatmap is one of the most valuable things ever for mapping off-road trails. I've found nothing more accurate for actual trail locations than the heatmap. The only thing that comes close is multiple p

The site will do that too, without being an app installed on my device collecting... stuff? If only it'd work well. (I tend to eschew apps however much I can. But maybe I should just suck it up until this project is done.)

Yes. Just try to use it on a slightly poor mobile signal, like when actually in a Home Depot store. I'm remodeling a house and I end up having to go to one of three HD stores that are each about five miles from the house. Each is in a

This is excellent! I've done a Wireshark lesson internally for coworkers with some similar examples, but this is so much more complete than what I'd put together. In the future I'll be using this instead, as it's exactly

I'm quite fortunate that leadership at my job (IT) has a very strong "don't let the customer tell you how to solve the problem" mentality. Even stating directly that at times. Why? Because this is exactly what happens. I

I used to do something similarly complex to the OP with ssh and --link-dest to make it share inodes so I could easily keep N days of backups with file level deduplication [1]. Then I moved to Borg and haven't looked back. It does the s

Thinking about this a bit deeper, it's a pretty good system for explaining a bunch of technologies to others (those mentoring, etc). There's the reason why it's not possible to win via the front door, how basic client side JS

I wasn't able to find this when looking. When using Rockbox can the iPod still be connected to a car via the dock connector / USB and speak in AAP (Apple Accessory Protocol) to the car? I ask because my 2015 Subaru Outback doesn&#

With this sort of switch you have to worry about the lifecycle of the switch. They aren't meant to be toggled routinely. For the mentioned DIP switch ( https://www.farnell.com/datasheets/5461.pdf ) it's basical

That doesn't help with end of service life, it helps with uneven wear. If all the tires wear evenly this detection won't help.

This is the reason for my strong dislike of online content moving to video. It's way, way harder to skim a video to see if it's decent quality. I feel like this is the inevitable result of video content having a lower entry bar th

I'm sorry, but what you're saying has nothing to do with what I linked to. The linked article is about the development of helmet safety standards and their use in bicycle racing. Please read the linked article, you may find it int

Be sure to read the follow-up ( https://web.stanford.edu/~learnest/cyclops/bash1.htm ) about the challenges the author faced in trying to help move forward a reasonably safe standard for bicycle helmets.

34/30 pants for me, but yeah, I think torso size is a big part of it. It also comes out in bicycle sizing. Bikes are sized based on the horizontal length of the frame, via measurements "effective top tube length" or the simil

An anectdote: I am 5'10", have a 30" inseam (longer torso than normal for my height), and cycle a lot. My legs are quite muscular, and upper body is reasonable with just a bit of a stomach. My RHR is in the 50s. I weigh ~175

I'm in the process of fixing up a house and while I have a station wagon, it doesn't have the capacity of a pickup truck. Friend after friend jokes about how their truck is more useful, but the one time I really needed one (to pur

Yes, this about maintenance. All around Michigan bike lanes are being put in, especially around Detroit. They tend to be awful to ride in because they become a de facto gutter containing all the debris that gets blown/kicked off the ca

I normally ride a bike on a smart trainer during the winter (when not riding outside), but am planning to buy a Concept2 Erg before next winter. It should be great for core and back strength, something cycling -- especially indoor cycling -

You got it; the point is that it's a one-time problem after which a different app should be chosen. There's a ton of things out there which'll record rides offline. Personally, I think a dedicated bike computer is best, becau

Those look nice as well. I think that any slim/passive box will work well. So long as it has enough NICs and they have quality drivers for hardware offload and whatnot it'll work great.

...then use a different app. There are myriad ways to record rides with no data service; I do it all the time. Most commonly I use Strava or a dedicated Garmin bike computer. Syncing / uploading then happens once they have signal again

FWIW, I do OPNsense on a dedicated box (Protectli FW4B) and then an R610 for wireless, with an eBay special EOL'd Brocade switch in the middle. A dumber switch would be just fine, but I wanted something with 802.1at POE and good VLAN s

It'd be harder to find one, and I'm not sure a car shop would really be interested in used, potentially failed, parts.
