    Newbie to Python

    There are some good courses and tutorials on YT, but if you want to take it a step further - go to EDX.org and just sign up for a few free Python courses that may interest you(haven't browsed it in awhile, but there were a bunch when I was on the self-learning spree, and I'm sure by now they...

    Found an exploit in a really old Wordpress plugin...

    Seems like it's been on the radar for a couple of years with similar vulns. Likely a one-off project that became abandonware soon after(last update 6 years ago). Their GIT is burried under 2 pages of vuln reports dating as far back as 6 years ago. Pretty sure no one in their right mind would...

    SteamOS claims "power button was pressed" when it wasn't?

    I'm pretty sure it's a hardware issue. Some fix it by tightening the motherboard, some resort to sticking a piece of paper in order to prop a keycap. There are cheap replacement keycaps and buttons, but the main problem is if it's an actual button failure - it's an SMD part soldered to the...

    USB Microphone Stopped Working on Samsung A54/A55 — Need Help

    As I said - if it's detected as headset, the phone will automatically switch both input and output. At least as far as I know, you can't select separate input and output devices and there are no software mixers like on Windows. Also, what's the purpose of having internal speakers on when you...

    TWRP for Xiaomi Redmi Note 10S

    You should probably look it up on XDA. I know there was an older unofficial build of 3.7.0 for rosemary, but I'm not sure if it'll work on Android13 if your phone runs the latest fw...

    Mini PCs (North America)

    Even if it's only 4 hours a year, if it has a purpose - it has a purpose. That was the point of my post. Just get one of those we mentioned earlier. Any HP/Dell/Lenovo used mini/micro/tiny. I think the absolute lowest that'll fit the bill is M73p or M93p tiny. It's socketed haswell w/ DDR3, but...

    Mini PCs (North America)

    For schematics, either modern electronics or automotive, tablet is definitely a wrong tool for the job. Heck, even my 24" Dell Ultrasharp at the workshop is a bit too small. In theory it sounds nice to have a PDF in your hands on the go, but from the usability standpoint it becomes more pain in...

    USB Microphone Stopped Working on Samsung A54/A55 — Need Help

    Maybe the issue is USB-C port itself. Have you tried cleaning it? Just use a sharpened toothpick or a thin needle. shine the flashlight inside and see if contacts are dirty. If so - I usually soak a tiny piece of cotton in IPA and move it around with a needle a few times(on both sides)...

    3D Printer Club

    At my friend's print farm I think the only 2 remaining printers with glass bed are the large-format ones simply because nothing else works. One is a 500x500 beefy boi which we still hadn't had a chance to rebuild: it's cartesian, uses expensive ball screws on all axis and beefy 3030 extrusion...

    3D Printer Club

    I find glass to be more pain in the ass. Textured PEI is wa-a-a-ay easier and needs no adhesive. Glass also flexes, and also has weird alignment issues(especially with stiff clips). ...also it explodes :nutkick:

    Mini PCs (North America)

    16GB DDR4 and an old 250GB NVMe. The keyword is "on paper". Temperatures weren't an issue either.

    3D Printer Club

    Don't bother, it looks fine. The whole purpose of bed mesh leveling is to compensate for that, and not just to show you that your hotbed is uneven. The importance of the "perfect" first layer is overrated by most 3D printing "gurus". It just needs to stick to the bed and not have "holes"...
