Yup. It's damn near impossible not too lol here's my current mess. Naturally I had to pay tribute to the man who never betrayed anyone with the paint. It was also a lot of fun finding out the rx-124 "legs" + the v2 backpack make effortless gliding instead of walking. You just float everywhere 😂

I haven't played online yet, I like to make sure I have a good handle on the game before doing that. But so far the single player has been pretty fun. I'm enjoying making some of the fugliest gundams that whoop in battles and painting them up like they aren't some frankensteined mess 😂

They do well as light work machines. Mines done some weird stuff, and Ive subjected it to various things, but it keeps on trucking. Worst it's ever done is reset on me, but logging in brought back everything important.

That script has an option to install coreboot in it's TUI. But it only works on x86, arm Chromebooks aren't supported by the utility

Getting a Chromebook to run Linux is pretty easy these days with MrChromebox's utility https://docs.mrchromebox.tech/

As to the main purpose of your post, I use fedora on my Pinebook pro and it works great. Though with the lack of resources compared to x86 laptops, many things can be slow to start, like browsers. Id never use it to try and watch videos online, it's a painful experience.

I also have an older Chromebook with a Celeron powering it, and it sips power. I can forget to charge it for a week, grab it, and still have a few hours of battery I can use.

I do. It's nice. Just earlier I used teleport to remote in and setup a docker container, while out. It's certainly the biggest advantage to me, having a one click/tap VPN connection to a network. It's helped me out several times at home and work.

potato bread/buns are great! Try it if you ever get a chance

it's 1mm between the leads! 🙌 thank you for your help!

That's what I was thinking, and somehow stumbled into this right after posting. it looks much closer to the shape of the connector https://tinycircuits.com/products/jst-sh-2-pin-connector?variant=55022349895&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&srsltid=AfmBOorg-Wh2nrGks_kktyhZaXNQ5tGwCNVpqTVdqOvcaC-65Lbg_TL0KP4

Is there a way to measure/get identifiable info for it to ensure i'm looking up the right connectors and not just plugging in whatever string of keywords i think might pull it up?

I have a project I'm doing where a small hobby board has connectors for different things, including LEDs. I don't want to use the original LED strip, and would like to make a single LED that plugs into the board instead, but I don't know how to identify/find this connector. Can anyone help?

the HR drone could've probably explained it better, but it's possible for the background blur effect to distort a close up img on camera of a document, such as for I9. I recently went through a verification of my documents and had to do the same thing, except I made the call to unblur and immediately my docs were verifiable via camera.

Likely policy is to ask for blur effects to be disabled to remove the possibility of interference in be able to actually see/verify docs.

 

I'm curious if anyone has tried alternative OSes on an EOL Chromebook?

Ive read using brunch can keep them receiving updates (without losing Android/Linux containers)

I tried out bliss is from a live usb last night and it was okay. Honestly the 3 launcher options just send to compete with each other.

Anyone tried any others out? If so, which ones, what was your experience like?

 

I’m having a bit of a hard time with this, but I also acknowledge this is still relatively niche still.

I’d like to make printed recreations of some parts that I currently have. They’re unfortunately a bit complex to quickly recreate manually in a sculpting software. I do have an iPad PRo and a budget for any additional hardware to help. I was hoping I could find a carousel I could connect to the iPad Pro and use and app to control the carousel and scan the parts. I’m not finding anything.

Can anyone recommend a good setup to make 3D scans of these small parts, or an app/hardware combo that could help me accomplish this?

As I'm sure many others have encountered, within days of creating any user in O365, they start receiving spam, phishing, and solicitation emails. Some of these bad actors have shown a very clear pattern to me, so it leads me to believe a team of bad actors may have found access to our GAL and will make regular attempts to scam our employees. I'm of course, also curious how I might find that employees with minimal outside communications (external communications are with specific individuals at client companies.)

Unfortunately, I haven't much experience with SecOPs, so I'm curious if anyone more experienced can suggest some good tools to recommend for me to do some digging into this. Tool/app platform doesn't matter, I've got Windows, Mac, and Linux machines available to utilize for testing.

Still a lot of unfinished styling/animations, and several apps can't yet utilize the OSK, but so far I'm liking this GNOME far better than vanilla on the PT2. Installed on Danctnix via gnome-mobile-shell from the AUR.
