Argh, hate them!

I was surprised to actually see laser diodes in there.

I'm from Europe and headlights suck here too! It's spectrum of LEDs and tall cars and probably bad regulations too.

My problem is that I drive a low car (Ford fiesta) and most other cars are taller, this makes them way more blinding.

[–] callcc 13 points 3 days ago

What I currently do is to take out my own headlight from its holder and deliberately point into their eyes. At least the message should be clear.

[–] callcc 4 points 3 days ago

Yeah, I guess that's one part of the problem. It's not like most people care that much. But if that's the only replacement lights you can get... :/

Totally, I'm commuting by bike almost every work day of the year and it's infuriating how many cyclists have their headlights misaligned.

Hah, nice. The more the merrier!

 

A new community where people can just vent about or actually do coordinate action against the pest of ultra bright LEDs.

Protest song (lyricsintosong.ai)
 

Someone made this nice protest song!

Blinded by the light (and not in a cool way)

Contact me if you want an mp3 or similar.

The fuzzy skin came out very nicely!

[–] callcc 2 points 1 week ago

I have it installed but no clue how I could actually use it. Maybe just by attaching a keyboard :)

Came here to answer this :D surely didn't read that article

 

Converting an old marble table to a coffee table. I haven't worked in my shop recently and forgot how much work even the most basic thing like cutting to length is. Anyways, I'm happy how things turned out.

New bread formula discovered. The covalent bond is strong and mediated by glutrons.

(Yeah I know bro, it's di-bromine already)

I don't know what I did right but I find the scoring to be very pretty.

Bonus: the other loaves of the batch

 

And here the real deal:

Only crashed once :)

Dart case (lemmy.world)
submitted 3 months ago by callcc to c/3dprinting
 

I made a case to protect my darts when taking them somewhere. Here are some more images. The case was made to fit a specific model and it's not very parametric till then end, so I'm afraid it's not super useful for others.

It was made in #FreeCAD 1.0 which was super smooth!

I'm designing a case for a dew-point ventilator controller to be 3d printed. The controller is implemented using arduino on an esp32. The project is based off of the code and HW implementation by Make Magazine Germany: https://github.com/MakeMagazinDE/Taupunktluefter. When starting out I was thinking this would be an easy project but it turned out that especially the lid with its lip and groove design and the parts fixations were not that easy. I'm excited to finally print it.

The file is parametric to some extent and the main footprint is based off of a master sketch. Many parts were imported as step files from grabcad. I used FreeCAD 1.0-rc1 which works like a charm for many things. Next thing I would like to do is to use the new assembly workbench. What do you think?

EDIT: I didn't mention the most important part. The device switches on a ventilator when the absolute moisture content outside is lower than inside a a certain room. This results in drying of the room that you ventilate like a basement with moisture issues. The dew-point acts as a proxy for measuring absolute moisture content.

SMTP provider (self.selfhosted)

Who can suggest an ethical SMTP provider for low volume transactional mail? I'm willing to pay up to 2€/month for a few hundred mails per month.
