Thanks for the suggestion!

Say more about shoulder harness? I think that's what I'm looking for...

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!

 

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?

"...police confiscated a crossbow, a BB gun and various documents among other items, they added."

Am I a joke to you?

I'm starting in on sketches of what I want my mask to look like when finished.

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...

So, so good.

 

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?

Interesting. Ombi means I don't have to run docker. How do you like it?

 

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?

 

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?

 

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.

 

Gotta be a pretty early bird to get close at zoo tunes. Nice to see some music outside!

 

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?
