Does it have rollerskate wheels?? I ended up buying a dewalt stool on wheels for the garage but it's a little bulky.

Bluesky thinks I'm in Texas and now is forcing me to verify my age??? Welp, it's been fun while it lasted. No way I'm sharing my info with some third party just so they can get hacked, my information stolen, and only get a slap on the wrist. Adios.

After playing PowerWash Simulator for 624 hours, I finally hit $100,000 in the bank and everything in the shop purchased. Thanks for all the cleaning entertainment @powerwashsimulator.co.uk

How old are the batteries? I have had an APC fail on me before which was scary, the battery had expanded internally. I'm sure a few of my UPSs could use some fresh batteries lol I'm not very good with keeping up on swapping them out.

What type of battery back up is it?

For lighter gear using rack studs will make life so much easier! For my lab racks I picked up some rack shelves and drawers for storage and it has helped me stay more organized.

I really need to start taking multi-day breaks from news and social media. My brain is not built for this constant barrage of doom and gloom.

EF = broadcast from ID "E" to the network 82 = Op Code for Active Source 10 = High byte of address of HDMI Port address (this will vary based on config) F0 = Low byte of address of HDMI Port address (this is the made up, non-standard, samsung special sauce, normally would be "00")

Echoskope @echoskope.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

The final conclusion: turns out newer samsung tvs don't play by the HDMI CEC rules. Randomly came across someone's post on a forum that shared the secret: you have to set the active source with the command EF:82:10:F0 before you can tell the TV to go into standby.

Echoskope @echoskope.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

Less hangry now, tested the HDMI CEC commands on my TV at home and they work perfectly. Now I know I'm not a dummy and was doing everything correctly, it was the new Samsung TVs that apparently require some special sacrifice in order to honor a standby command which I've yet to figure out.

Echoskope @echoskope.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

I never want to see another HDMI CEC traffic log again in my life after the 8 hours of hell I just went through with a stupid piece of shit Samsung TV choosing to just ignore the commands with no apparent reason other than to drive me further insane.

You ever just minding your own business, maybe listening to some music, or watching a video, and suddenly your brain asks, "Where did I go wrong in life?" Seems to be happening more often these days.

If you really want to have fun reading schematics, go pull the cover off your furnace at home and look at the drawings for that system :)

Woke up to a very chilly house... Of course this happens when the overnight low was 17F, and I can confirm my attic where the furnace is felt like that lol Got to learn how my furnace works while freezing my fingers off and put all that youtube HVAC troubleshooting knowledge to work!

Is it just me, or does it seem like all streaming services up their prices by $1 every few months? Do they think we don't notice this?

Upgraded my network rack UPS to a rackmount CyberPower, and it looks awesome!

Turn off fast boot. Rest the BIOS. Re-flash the BIOS. Try a different power cable. Reseat the card. Try to update the card firmware. Boot without card then with card. Enable ReBAR. GPU upgrade just turned into a whole computer upgrade.

Echoskope @echoskope.bsky.social · 10/01/2026

Bought a new graphics card, installed it, PC wouldn't boot. Plug into the integrated graphics, boots up, thinking just a driver / BIOS config issue no biggie. Nope. PC won't boot without a monitor connected to integrated graphics. Once booted it flips over to new GPU and runs normally. :(

Have you seen @alveussanctuary.org pollinator garden with native plants? They try to keep to native plants around and rescue plants when they can.

I've bought some from www.discount-low-voltage.com/clearance just to play around with. I've bought a lot of fiber stuff from them for my fiber home lab.

How do you like the bone conduction headphones? I've been using shokz in an office environment and they are awesome, but in our lab where it is more noisy they aren't so good.
