Some Home Depots were selling them, but B&M will always offer something that doesn't have the latest tech and for more money.

You could have her bring you a 3d printer. $1500 assembled.

Yup, sent them an e-mail right after my post. ;)

Looking at having them assemble it for me. They've quoted an acceptable price for assembly, but have left the packaging/shipping to me (apparently they don't want to deal with it). Looking for options local to them (65695 US Highway 33, Goshen, IN, 46526).

That can't be right. I glanced through the manual, and I'm thinking 4-6 hours is way more likely if you have the tools available and plenty of space. I am way more interested in printing metal, but this way I can prototype quickly before having someone else print from metal.

I'd consider moving the computer end of the cable into the chassis using a grommet and internal header. Make it look integrated.

Indeed. Which is why this thing is fully automated. Load up the file and walk away.

Interesting idea. I suppose even on the wired side I could just use vlans to keep things separate; single DHCP server handing out into all the vlans, shared resources a member of all the vlans. Once again we are back to a smart switch and a more basic router.

I did a 3D Scanner thread a while ago that touched on printing, but they really are different things. I'm considering a Rostock MAX v2 3D printer. Most kinds of plastic are supported (ABS requires the printer bed to be heated to maintain directional accuracy) and the print size is appreciable...

I don't plan on running 16 wireless routers, they can all play in the same wireless box.

A bunch of wireless routers offer "Isolate WLAN" as a switch out of the box. Wireless clients can see the internet and each other but nothing else. This isn't ideal, but trying for better with wireless is like putting a really good lock on a glass door...

I'm pretty sure the MikroTik with the stock WebFig software will do it. I'm running their top-end 1100 AH X2 at home, and it will let me add a unique DHCP server on every port if I like. The thing is crazy powerful and flexible. The downside is that it took me 2 hours to configure the thing to...

Thanks Chewy. I think the scale of the implementation is smaller than you realize. Most of these "tenants" are single machines. The port (or Wifi) connection they get from me needs to already hand out DHCP for a plug'n'play experience. My understanding is that your suggestion would work from a...

Helping a friend put together some numbers on building out a co-working space. One of the challenges is making a network where all the wired ports have access to the internet and shared resources, but not each other. I also plan on having two internet connections for reliability and speed. With...

Brought the kid into work this evening so I could finish some things. She likes to point at out the things she has words for and name them. Most commonly this is "Dog", "Car", "Flower", and "Bird". Tonight she pointed behind me and said "bird". "That's nice" I say, turning around to face a 3'...

The minis I buy now (Lenovo M series tiny) don't have one, but I know what you are talking about. Is there a part number you can Google? Is it more than just a 3.5" speaker with the right cable connector?

Very glad to hear it Merc. That would suck considerably.

Just an FYI, I'll be stealing this verbatim for future arguments elsewhere.

This is (AFAIK) a 6-year+ issue with KM that has been pounded about on their forum for at least that long. I've sent the controller to go yell at them, but I do not consider it worthwhile. Synology has an e-mail from me, but haven't yet received a response. They do have statics, and a second...

No errors on either. It prompts for a password, doesn't accept any, and I close the window. Not sure what errors I should be expecting. The problem exists from any source on the network. I don't think any sharing would work without CIFS enabled? I have tried domain/username and...

Interesting. Have you had success with these?

I've rejoined to the domain without luck. Pinging server_name returns the correct IP. The DHCP reservation was updated with the new machines MAC, and the new machine picked up the IP automatically, so that is working correctly. Peculiar indeed. Thanks for the assistance! Glad to know it wasn't...

Upgraded a site from a desktop 8-bay unit with an Atom CPU to a 10-bay rackmount unit with a 3.1Ghz i3 (much faster performance of course). Same IP, same server name, joined to the domain in the same way. With the previous unit, I could access a share with either the IP address (//192.168.0.3)...

Great video.

The explaining was pretty fast. The bar I'm remodeling is part of a local country club that he just purchased. I didn't get in as much trouble as all the employees loitering in the lobby instead of working.

Interesting. I've had the opposite problem. Took delivery of 6 65" TVs for a bar I'm remodeling. No storage space at the club, so I took delivery at my office. They insisted that they unpack all of them (despite no visible damage on the box) and fire them up. Of course, when I have the wall of...

If you want the safest trip for your package you need to choose overnight. Shortest legs and fewest touches.

Having previously owned one of those units, I can say that it isn't good enough to do what you would expect. Establishing a 4k signal from any source is difficult, configuring lower resolutions to use the entire screen is impossible.

CFL bulbs in general are very finicky. If your motion sensor even twitched away from full brightness as part of the relay many CFLs wouldn't work at all. As Time said, a dimmable bulb/light source might be needed. I'm a big fan of LED lighting panels. The shadows are soft and the light itself...

I designed the duct system for my house. Only 1400sq.ft., but three zones with some tricky bits. Of course, I used SolidWorks FloXpress to model the whole house as part of the design ;)

That does suck. At least we are in Summer?

It is still outside most of my clients budgets, but I recall TVs that large being $25k+ not that long ago. (Or was it a long time ago....I'm getting older by the minute)

Which OS is it?

Crazy how cheap the monster screens are getting.

Seconded. If you mean IE and are concerned about security/privacy enough to consider Ghostery, the first step is to ditch IE.

Runs fine of the Windows version of Firefox. If you are looking for something similar at the OS level I don't know of anything.

Looks interesting. Just installed.

The most critical moment is when you decide to leave the left edge and head for the second apex. You develop a feel for it, but references are few and far between. It becomes more of a timing thing. The reason most make mistakes is actually the bump just at the start of the breaking zone while...

When I was a teenager I did track days with the Porsche Club of America there (my first boss was their president). Later he and I did the Skip Barber 3-day program there; Dodge Neons to open-wheeled. 'Course, that was 15 years ago. There is a company that runs track days out there semi-monthly...

This part wouldn't be any different. If you want to check e-mail on a device, you need to know the username and password for your e-mail. Perhaps consolidating all your delivery mechanisms might help? http://lifehacker.com/376367/consolidate-multiple-email-addresses-with-gmail

You don't know your regular e-mail address and password? Are you sure? If the account was a Google account most of your stuff is backed up in their servers anyway.

Here is an F1 car doing a lap in 1:05 (my bicycle record is 12 minutes dead). This one has a couple in-car shots from ALMS races. What do you see? Nothing. Normally in blind corners you pick a tree as a reference, but here you only see treetops.

Typically the information that an Android phone wants after a reset is for your e-mail/password.

Nice piece on my favorite corner of my local track (about 15 miles away). This thing was terrifying the first time I drove it at speed, and still thrills every time I do it on my road bike @ ~40mph.

Looks like a nice time. I wonder how warm that water will be...

Well, the no-brainer is "anyone but them". I'd be tempted to go with the largest company around, but that isn't really a guarantee of anything. I'm assuming you don't have a family friend in the business or you would already be there. With that much repair cost, replacing the unit entirely is...

I've had good luck with these, but picture quality is suboptimal. Link: http://amzn.com/B006FILNV6
