Seems cool!
Does it handle sharing a task list between people? Or syncing between multiple clients / handling concurrent edits?
I see the manual says keyboard commands are the main way to control it. Does it work in mobile?
Looks like you're putting lots of work into it, thanks for sharing.

Norris Young, a passenger on the train, told NBC Philadelphia the train hit a “gigantic tree.” “There was a tree on the track, I don’t know if it fell on the track or if it was just laying on the track,” Young said.
So, train still on the track.

Is there some kind of aurora alert I can sign up for? Missed the last one, barely caught some of this one.
I had an easy maiden flight for my Reptile Dragon 2. But despite balancing right on the CG dots, I needed quite a lot of up elevator trim for level flight at about half throttle.  I put my rx at the tail using the extra servo opening.  Plenty of room for the FC. The PDB install is a little clunky, but the wires are stiff enough to just hold it. I put the vtx up front.  A little custom trimming to fit a RunCam orange, though after one crash in my Zohd XL I have had a lot of trouble with that camera and will probably look for something else.  Next upgrade is probably digital FPV, but I haven't decided on a system yet. Walksnail? Nice if I didn't need a separate action camera.

And then vote for Ranked Choice Voting (which may not be the ideal but is a paradigm shift improvement from First Past the Post).

I think they can be a climate conscious choice and unaffordable. But getting better, and still a worthwhile step.

Took me a minute to figure out how it works. So the angle of the jig is determined by the length the chisel extends through it. Neat.
It took lots of repetition honing, stropping, going through setup, realizing the chip breaker was right on the edge of the blade, repeat, new error. The first picture is progress: small and crunchy, long and crinkley, long and papery. Sharpening using [Atoma 400/600/1200 diamond plates](https://burrfectionstore.com/products/atoma-diamond-sharpener?srsltid=AfmBOoq9vy8cZuUIAUJUhU5GsG56XTGkvyk23eK-14YljspSdOJsKBQz) + a strop I had around. I found [Wood By Wright's setup video](https://youtu.be/vG-DULSw6Zk?si=ELUMh7aavjnmVQCm) helpful and have been enjoying [Rex Kreuger's videos on sharpening](https://youtu.be/f4BEQeW8cdo?si=Lrr8sAlweG4mRPFv) and other things.  I worked so hard for these shavings, surely there's something fun to do with them.

Always checking for buttons. From JD Power:
Looks like climate and possible media volume have physical controls, so pretty good.

Thanks! I want to try some smaller / varying size fingers next.
I made a box joint jig following [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyJof__nTR4](Woodfather's video). It's a nice simple/flexible design for those of us without a dado stack.   First try was very sloppy, but once I adjusted the key width and got my clamps set up better the fit is great. The scraps I had around were bed slats off the curb, which were very cupped. But they actually turned out pretty nicely (after plenty of cleanup).   Boiled linseed oil finish.

Good to know!
This is mostly for entertainment, not harvest yield.
Wrapping up its first season, I think we're supposed to get a harvest starting year three.

Good caution. It doesn't seem to shift and I tend to flip it pretty slowly, so hopefully it won't put undue stress on the casting.

Table is 1-1/2" (3/4" MDF + 3/4" plywood). The 3/4" holes drilled with a Forstner bit go all the way through. The clamps are DDWT MFT style hold down clamps.
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/20112075 I have two type-k thermocouples with breakouts from Adafruit, attached to a ESP8266 (Huzzah I believe). My oven was very old and didn't come with a temperature readout or any kind of preheating status (but thankfully also no builtin WiFi). The Tasmota device reports to HomeAssistant, which stores data in InfluxDb, which I can then chart in Grafana. > Here you can see the internal temperature got to 151F, and I was surprised to see how much the oven's temperature rebounded after I took the cakes out, despite being off. > >  > > The recipe is "Chocolate Lava Cakes For Two" from NYT Cooking.

I baked "Chocolate Lava Cakes For Two", the NYT Cooking recipe. It's one I make semi-regularly, pretty quick on a weeknight and delicious. I have small ramekins so the recipe makes three and they cook a little faster than the recipe's would.  I have two temperature probes (thermocouples on a Tasmota ESP8266 => HomeAssistant => Grafana). Mostly for my entertainment, but here you can see the internal temperature got to 151F, and I was surprised to see how much the oven's temperature rebounded after I took the cakes out, despite being off. 
I made three sets of classroom mailboxes, for passing in papers / storing journals etc. Sides and back are 3/4" plywood, shelves are 1/4" plywood. Corners are rabbet and dado joints, my first time doing that. I did the cuts on my table saw. (I tried to route them, but didn't get as clean a cut as I'd like with the cheap Ryobi bits I had.) Shelves slide into dados. The sides/centeres are designed so one fence location could cut the top and bottom dado. I didn't have a dado stack, and am using a Shopsmith which has the table saw blade arbor on a quill, so I set the quill stop for my dado width and used that to make multiple cuts slightly apart. That worked fairly well but must have been slightly off on some cuts where it was very hard to slide the 1/4" plywood shelves in; I ended up sanding the edges of some slightly thinner.
I just received a text from (701) 922-7432 saying: >PUBLIC ALERT: We are confirming your voter file records. Please do not respond with any sensitive information, but do confirm whether your name and address is [full name] at [Street address]. stop = end I see a [recent r/Michigan post about it](https://www.reddit.com/r/Michigan/comments/1eobhxh/suspicious_voter_confirmation_text/) but not decisive mention of a scam or real campaign.
I've built the section of the table that flips. On the saw side, I have 1-1/2" to build up so the bed of the saw is flush with the rest of the table. How would you attach the saw so it's secure to flip upside down? The top only has holes at the front, for inserting a side clamp.  Maybe bolt through the ends into a block underneath? 
Moving my FC over to it from the ZOHD Dart XL, since I want a rudder.
Or any other tips for keeping track?
It's been a convenient way to write on thin wires, thought I'd share the tip, and curious if other folks do it too. Also, nice to find this community exists, but it'd be great to see folks posting, maybe we could just share what we're flying!
I decided to sand down the top, drawer front, and low shelf edges, but leave the spindles alone. I tried to match the stain but the one I bought (and tried on a hidden area) came out too red, so I skipped staining. Luckily several coats of poly ended up close enough. Before ([previous post](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/77a6bd0e-0806-4750-ad93-d0b9708e8225.jpeg)): 
It has seen some water damage and the varnish is flaking off (especially on the top). But I don't necessarily have the time/energy for a full strip/sand/refinish, especially as this may get dinged up; I'm just looking for a reasonably pleasing look. Looking at the bare wood that was between assembled pieces, it looks like the piece was stained and then varnished. What's a good way to get the old flaking varnish off without messing up the stain -- Citristip, just sanding? Thinking I'll just put some coats of new polyeurethane varnish on as the new finish. Most instructions I see online are for a really thorough refinishing, so I'm wondering if there's some middle ground that will clean up the worst of the water damage and protect the wood, even if it doesn't look like new. Closer view of the top: 
Another angle below. Very dinged up and the end and legs were missing, but seemed like to much hardwood to pass to. 
My family had one from decades ago that's falling apart, so I made a replacement. I went with toothpicks as little dowels to help join the crossbars to their supports, since the flat glue joint didn't hold for all of them.  I had this one on my list for a while, but also recently found a [video from 3x3 Custom](https://youtu.be/JI6KjThoUGc?si=9sZ1xXznf0JtL6Pf) doing the same project.
First try I used AP flour and let the 1st rise go too long I think, and they were too dense. This time I used my regular sourdough recipe with bread flour (920g, with 650g water, 71% hydration) and they came out great. Thanks for the inspiration from this community!
I was checking to see how a 3/4" dog hole would look in a vise jaw made from two 3/4" pieces of plywood. Just clamped for the test, but would be glue for the real thing. Interesting to see the hole opened up. And luckily no splitting, but do you think it would work as an actual vise jaw? This is for a Veritas quick release front vise, so the jaw is only supported in the middle.
