    All of the interior will be visible - the purpose is to make a 2 dimensional frame for my face, so don't even need the rest of the box if I can figure out how to suspend the frame

    One year I went as a kelp forest, with helium balloons holding up the kelp. God Damn helium balloons are insulating!

    How To? Hands free box on head

    I'm making a Halloween costume that features my head inside a box. All good if In use my hands to support said box, but I'd like my hands to be free. This seems like a solved problem, got any hints on how I might support the box so its stable while leaving my arms and hands free?

    Late, but present. I will be making.. A Halloween costume. It will be a wearable mask that covers my head and leaves my hands free. It will be open except on the front. I have no idea how I will do it yet, bit plenty of time to figure it out...

  • What apps/stack to automate grabbing content and adding it to Plex?

    My main question is: what automates pushing new content to my Plex libraries and kicking off a library scan?

    Seems like there are lots of apps that do similar things (monitor trackers for example). I just need one that moves content from \Data\Torrents\ to Plex:\movies and tickles it enough to trigger a scan.

    Does Overseerr do this?

  • Is there a LLM/ChatGPT tuned to help with weekly meal planning that doesn't suck? Why not? As a home cook, I'd like to get a weekly meal plan for dinner plus a shopping list focused on my interests, so I can use it for inspiration. This seems like a really good LLM application: - it doesn't have to be factual - huge corpus of data to work from (recipies, meal plans) - can tune to suit my (or a users) taste - ideally it cood avoid repeats (by knowing what it suggested last week) And, so far the ones I've found seem... Underwhelming. Has anybody found somethig good? Ideas about why not?

    I want to be able to search for content on my phone, then have it automatically downloaded and posted to plex, so that I don't have to fuck around so much every time I want to backup a show. I am running Plex (on a TrueNAS Core box), Radarr, Sonarr, and QbitTorrent today. I have a preferred tracker. What other apps do I need to make it easy to find out of a show is avaliable, automatically hand it off to Radarr/Sonarr then download it and move it to my NAS share then get Plex to refresh and tell me it's done?

    I couldn't bring myself to spend hundreds on a bike box, at least not without more travel on the horizon. So card board it is. But... Wheels sound nice. So, I got some castors and trimmed some spare 2x6 and now... Wheels!

    What is your setup for riding in the rain?

    Seattle year round commuter. For my current short commute: a rain cape (poncho).

    • it's comfortable to wear both wet and dry
    • easy on/easy off. Less fucking around trying to get geared up.
    • I don't sweat through my clothes because it ventilates like crazy

    So many more reasons, but good lord those 3 are reason enough. Putting on still-wet gear at the end of the day is nasty.

    I also wear rain-legs. I wear wool socks and sneakers (1 less piece of wet gear to deal with). No gloves (cape deals with the rain and wind).

    Tent footprint: exterior hem or not?

    Hello Making Friends I am making a footprint for a tent from tyvek: should I hem the exterior so that the fabric folds over from the top side and is sewn (or taped) to the underside? What about adding gromets? I am thinking that the hem would keep ground water from seeping between the tent and foot print if it were to rain. I am also thinking this is too much work for very little benefit, and an unfinished edge is simple, easier, and just as durable (this is freaking House wrap). Thoughts?

    Good questions. I own priorities, my team owns operation. Fixing this is on our list of priorities, not high enough to get the amount of attention needed to really fix it.

  • On my pixel 6 the home button returns me to my home screen, or it used to. Recently, if I am on a google search (from the home screen google search widget), home does nothing. I'm expecting it to return me to the home screen - that's what it does on a pixel 7. I don't think I've made any changes to cause this, any idea how to get it back?

    Am I right to be annoyed that I have two broken spokes after having a reputable shop fix 1 broken spoke a few days ago? I'm out doing a tour, tomorrow is the last big day - 45ish miles. The rear end felt a little squidgey coming out of the woods this evening. I figured I was low on air but No! Two new broke spokes (rear wheel, drive side, broke off in the J bend, holes are right next to each other). I got to practice using a fiber fix - and truth be told we aren't really doing anything rough, so I imagine things will be fine. But... Dang, I wish the shop would have told me the tension was off and I was going to break more - I would have brought another fiber fix! Btw: fiber fix is a neat little hack. But a PITA to install on the drive side. What finally worked for me was: make a 'clean' end by cutting the end I messed up trying the first time. Then, reenforcing the end with super glue and some tape (so the end would hold together while forcing it through the hub hole). A bright light and a tiny Leatherman squirt were required.

    I'm out rolling around Victoria with some friends, one is a wine buyer. He got the good local stuff for the gang to try. I really wanted some, just a bit... Decided to pass.

    What's the best of breed Window/Tab manager for Chrome (Mac)? I often find my windows too cluttered - duplicate tabs, too hard to find the thing I am really looking for. This has to be a solved problem - what am I missing? So far TabBrew looks like a promising option, but there seem to be about a dozen extensions, and maybe other ways of doing this? Hoping to tap the Lem-mind..

    I am trying to login at reddthat.com/login using both my email address and username - no dice, just a green spinny icon endlessly. I've tried on my phone (duck browser) and on desktop chrome. Tried incognito mode - no change. Infact, I dont get any response even with known bad credentials. In Devtools - I don't even see a call being made to the server. I think Incognito rules out any plugins - any idea what might be up?
