sit around with calipers taking like 500 measurements three times each

smh

also maybe somewhat offtopic but for when you just need to do some simple csg openscad will make you fkn nut

u succ

at search

11/10 would not touch autocad for cgs ever again

@Julian not the right model

inventor is superior anyways

i need one for the r1, it's the variant of the orange pi zero with a second ethernet controller and port instead of usb on the front

it's fairly new so nobody's done the work yet, although i guess if i do it first my thingiverse page'll get way better stats

are orange pis even worth it

depends on what you expect out of them

i'm using this to add a bit of fanciness to a passive network tap, management iface and tcpdump built right into the tap to shunt packets off somewhere else for moloch to look at

i have a couple opi ones i used to host some little blogs for a while

basically they're only good as IoT projects and little network appliances/servers

not even _good_ as servers, but if you're just playing around or hosting something small, pihole or squid or s/t

I was considering getting one to setup a cheap small screen that goes to a website that i cna update

so i can have daily messages 🤔

go for a character lcd for that

oh boy, some 11-11 stuff arrived

Thsoe 3DS cables are A+

why dont the mia1's go for 170 euros again

😭

I got like 5 of them figuring they'd wear out quick, but they're really solid.

what 3ds cables

the one I posted in the thread?

See id rather use a full sized screen

rather then a character LCD

because id have more stuff

tho a cahracer screen would be smarter

you can do, just uh

be sure to manually and correctly configure xorg on the sd card image _before_ running the thing

these aren't smart like the raspberry pi they have a stupid default resolution and try to force it

also they're sliiightly more difficult to set up in general since you need to actually write and configure an armbian image instead of just slapping NOOBS on a card like you can with raspberry pi

's really no big deal if you're familiar with *nix at all though

🤔 Fuck i guess ill stop having to be a bum and learn linux better

i should bring my 2nd linux server online too

i would say for your application orange pi is fine though

Yeah its just a matter of doing it then paying someone to 3d print a case for me
