  • The application of a balancing shaft (or not) is not something I'd classify as something development depends on but that could be a difference in opinion.

    Of course we're at least halfway over the s curve for development of the ICE. And while electric is waiting for a breakthrough in energy storage I still believe there's a lot to be gained with ICE as well. Besides, the emotion and feeling of an ICE can be emulated but not replaced. F1 is of course about innovation but most of all "just" a sport and for fun. You don't see football (soccer?) be about innovation. Or basketball for that matter.

  • Can you elaborate? ICE development is not linked to the number of cylinders I think. I wouldn't see how it is I mean. And the V6 they use now is vastly different than the V10 of before. Mazda even developed a new way of combustion so I'd hardly say there's no optimisation or application.

  • Where I live you actually don't go to the police. Anything left of on the street belongs to the municipality so you'd have to go to the municipalities office. That said, I'd think it's quite hard to track down owners of cash.. You can inform the appropriate body in your country that they can contact you if they find the owner. Then after some time (maybe documented somewhere?) you can keep it.

  • CNC/lathe work is harder since it requires specialised machines which are a magnitude more expensive than a 3D printer. The method developed allows for low cost fixes to reduce the water leakage globally. Albeit maybe less reliable or permanent.

  • I agree wholeheartedly. But replacing all of the piping will be very expensive. I think this is more geared towards the people who don't have the kind of money or expertise or both to replace their entire plumbing and this will help mitigate those issues by being able to connect weird sizes together. That's at least what I got from scanning the article.

  • I think they are not talking about access to parts but more so custom sizes? Parametric driven is just a fancy word for using easily adjustable dimensions and linking them together. Local on demand 3D printing would mean in close proximity whenever you need it. I think the local part is trivial but alright. Customized means specific for the application.

    In my house for example there's an old central heating pipe that is out of standard so connecting any modern standard pipe or appliance to it is impossible. With a weird workaround it works but still leaks. This method of 3D printing a custom connector would solve it. Not sure what other use there is really.

    Creaking phone

    My Pixel 9 Pro XL started creaking since last week and seemingly gets worse. I can notice it especially when I squeeze the lower half of my phone. But in normal day to day use it happens mostly when getting my phone out of my pocket or even sometimes when using the fingerprint scanner.

    Is this normal? Should I wait or file a warranty case?

    Confused about Podman

    Before I dabbled a bit with Docker. I wanted to dabble a bit with Podman because it seemed quite interesting. I reinstalled Pi OS Lite on my Pi 3B+ and installed Podman. Then I figured out what to run and started digging through the documentation. Apparently Docker containers work quite similar and even Docker compose can be used. Then I came across the auto update function and stumbled upon quadlets to use auto update and got confused. Then I tried reading up on Podman rootless and rootful and networking stuff and really got lost.

    I want to run the following services:

    • Heimdall
    • Adguard Home
    • Jellyfin
    • Vaultwarden
    • Nextcloud

    I am not sure a Pi is even powerful enough to run these things but I am even more unsure about how to set things up. Do I use quadlets? Do I run containers? How do I do the networking so I can reach the containers (maybe even outside my home)?

    Can someone point me in the right direction? I can't seem to find the needed information.
