I'm guessing it's different density of the smoke clouds. Even if they rise consistently over the burning area, they could still form patterns of higher and lower density as they move. Think patterns in smoke from a cig or candle as it rises and moves - curls and gaps forming in it. Not sure what that's called or caused by in fluid dynamics but I assume that happens in the smoke clouds as they travel south. So when we get lower density bit over us - numbers go down, hgher density - they go up.

Years of anti-China propaganda is cracking under the weight of the naked US aggression. Crazy change.

The balcony right now.

(CO2 was not calibrated as the sensor was indoors for a long time, so ignore that.)

Nowhere yet. Still on Discord since Discord backpedaled on their ID bullshit. We'll have to reexamine again at some point. It seems there may be some other alternatives to look into like Stoat or Fluxer.

BTW I'm not at all a fan of the Discord format but it's not my decision to use that format.

Been contributing monthly since I joimed in 2023. It's approaching my cell phone bill. Not complaining, just saying I got that part covered. 😄

Still, I can't demand extra free labour but in case it was already done.. or someone was about to do it.. 🤭

 

Hey folks, given the shit show with Discord, another community I'm part of on Discord is wondering whether to move to Matrix. Was wondering if there's an unadvertised Matrix server that someone at Fedecan is already hosting?

Oooh this is very nice!

Haven't noticed any issue. That said overtightening the top screw does cause the button cover to warp a bit.

A compromise I can live with.

The colour is real. There's a funky overhead light. 😄

9x 14TB, WD HC530. Paid 25% less for some 16TB HC550 in 2024.

Being poor sucks.

No kidding. This didn't ruin me but it was painful. And on top of that, it's smaller disks for significantly more than I did last year.

I bought them for years ahead. My primary pool is gonna start having drives fail from age and use, and it'll need replacements. So I'm gonna be sticking these in as they fail over time so I use all the service life I can get from the existing (8TB) drives.

 

Not sure if the recertified market would be as affected but prices are definitely going up.

I don't have experience with the 12-speed drivetrains but the M7000/M8000 11-speed Shimano are incredible. If you have some cash burning in your pocket, you'd be delighted. That said as some have suggested, the same shifting consistency is probably available in cheaper parts too. I can vouch for M7000/M8000 as that's what I've been using since 2017. Especially coming from an old Suntour, it's gonna blow your mind. Perfect shifting under power? Yes.

 

This is the reason a #Shimano XT #derailleur costs more than a Shimano Alivio. On the left you have the whole-body slop of an Alivio M3100 derailleur. On the right you have the same of an XT M8000. There's noticeable slack in all the pivot joints of the M3100. There's no noticeable slack in the XT. It feels like a single piece. The result of this difference is misshifts like going one gear higher then back to the desired one, or otherwise some shifts taking longer between gears.

There's a second video in the original post showing the XT derailleur.

 

It's not a bootloop per-se because the restart comes after the phone has booted but it keeps doing it so it's somewhat similar. If you see this update, perhaps hold off for a bit.

 

So I have an update to my post from a couple of weeks ago. I did a few full charging sessions and they all showed estimated capacity around 4700mAh:

Then yesterday I found this curious setting, after updating to Android 16 QPR1:

I turned it off, did a full charge session and I got this estimate:

And that result looks to be right back to the normal cycle degradation line:

I'll do a few more full charge sessions but we have a tentative culprit. Google seems to have introduced a battery capacity cap under this setting, presumably to extend the cycle life of the battery.

Used brake calipers taken off my old bike. SwissStop brake pads with a lot of meat left on them. A few more pics here.

A symbolic $10 for Lemmy comrades. Free if you can't pay.

 

I was looking at this chart in AccuBattery and this dip looks rather strange. It does not look like normal battery wear. Did we get nerfed by the July update like the a-series with bad batteries? What's your graph look like, if you use AccuBattery or equivalent?

Update 1

I see a framerate/refresh rate bug that occasionally locks the framerate at a low value upon unlock. Fixing it requires a lock/unlock cycle.
