  • People who wear glasses, what are some things someone new to glasses should know?
  • gyrfalcon gyrfalcon Now 100%

    People have mostly covered the important stuff, so something less important is: if you are liable to take them off with any regularity, you're gonna lose them on top of your head! I keep mine on pretty much any time I'm awake and not doing something specifically anti glasses (think swimming), but I know especially people who are farsighted while watching TV or nearsighed while reading will do this.

    Also, in ear headphones and speakers exist if you are like me and can't find a pair of on/around ear headphones that don't make your ears sad when you wear your glasses.

    I am back on Elite Dangerous after taking some time to focus on Deep Rock Galactic in the first half of the year. I now have a second flight stick and did a little community class on flight assist off flying. Plus there have been lots of updates coming out. Taking advantage of the new engineering changes to build a really good combat ship and then going to focus on getting to Elite in combat probably, which also helps me practice my faoff flying.

    Based on the content of the linked post and the evolution of the thread here, the mod team has decided to lock this post. There is an important difference between standing up for people who are marginalized and harassment, which this thread has been more or less equating. Please deal with this topic in a more nuanced manner going forward.

    Hey, even if the above is a bad faith argument, this is not a constructive or nice way to bring that up in conversation. Please try to do a better job of communicating going forward. Thanks!

  • Hello, Im having a connection issue.
  • gyrfalcon gyrfalcon Now 100%

    I am not an expert and just cobbled this together based on a couple of searches but my guess would be that the adapter is supported by your current kernel drivers but not as well as whatever drivers Windows 10 was able to fetch. It looks to me like MX uses Debian Stable sources, so you may be able to update your kernel beyond what is normally available and see if that helps. If that doesn't work, based on this post and this post on the TP-Link forums, there's a github repo that you may be able to install a better driver from. To my eyes there's fairly good instructions there, including the potential need to disable the driver you're already using in favor of the new one once you build it.

    Genuine question as someone who thinks blockchains are neat but doesn't really think currency is the right application, how is that better? The bank is technically closed a lot, but I never really have trouble buying stuff or sending money around in the off hours using regular dollars.

    It might be your blocker, I'm not sure. Some testing on my local indicates that the ?tpcc=recirc_latest062921 at the end of the URL makes the difference, maybe some kind of gift link? If you use or can use Firefox, you can also load the page, put it into reader mode, and then refresh, and you should be able to read it that way. None of the other tools I know of to share links like this seem to work unfortunately.

    I'm not 100% sure this is a free link so if you can't see it let me know and I'll try to work something out.

  • Looking for a "couch laptop"
  • gyrfalcon gyrfalcon Now 75%

    I bought a used HP Elitebook on eBay for a similar purpose. I can browse and do video calls on a bigger screen when the fancy strikes. Pretty much any used business laptop should work. I think I paid about $300 for mine and I paid extra for particular hardware I thought was neat but you don't have to. Only thing to keep in mind is the battery will likely be pretty worn.

    Hey y'all! This thread has sparked a lot of discussion and it is obviously a very tense topic being discussed at a tense time in the world. With the way the thread has been going, the mod team doesn't feel we can moderate this thread thoroughly enough to make it follow our rules, so I am going to lock it.

  • October Make Something Month: Showcase
  • gyrfalcon gyrfalcon Now 100%

    Other than the two attempts at caramel making I did not accomplish anything else, but I am still pretty pleased with that. I had a lot of other things going on, and making something was good. I may try another batch this weekend in hopes that I can get the last refinement in before the holidays. Overall, I enjoyed running and participating in the event, and I am looking forward to next year!

  • gyrfalcon gyrfalcon Now 100%

    Unfortunately I haven't been able to make any more caramel, and based on what's going on life wise I'm not going to have a chance to before the end of the month. I'm still happy that I was able to make a few attempts and make some progress though!

  • October Make Something Month: Week 3
  • gyrfalcon gyrfalcon Now 100%

    I retried my recipe as a dry caramel and got improved results! I got a good color, as you can see in this picture. I think I got a little impatient and turned the heat up too high, because it was a bit burnt, although that might also have been because I forgot to prep my pan to pour into until it was almost done. The fats also went in later and were much better incorporated. I'm hoping to get one more attempt before the end of the month and have something I will feel good about making for the holidays.
