Can you explain what you mean by “inside the switchboard”? Maybe a photo?

Normally, you would use standoffs to mount it.

They also dominate compute. There’s still a lot of software that depends on CUDA.

It makes way less difference to the sound than most people think. In a blind test with different string gauges, I think few people would be able to tell which is which.

Also be aware that changing string gauge also changes the tension. You will need to readjust intonation, spring tension (unless you have a fixed bridge), and possibly truss rod.

For a beginner, I would highly recommend sticking with the standard 10-46. Aside from the adjustments needed, heavier strings are also a bit harder to play. Even as an experience player, I find zero benefit of heavier gauges.

If you like OpenSCAD, you should definitely give CadQuery a try. I’ve used both, and CadQuery absolutely blows OpenSCAD out of the water.

What does the probed mesh look like? If you run multiple probe cycles, are the results consistent?

However, that’s not really any better for privacy. There’s absolutely nothing preventing someone from logging a history of the changes.

As someone who has been using Linux since the 90s and gone through many different unit systems, I like systemd way more than any of the past ones. It makes adding services dead simple, and is much smarter about handling dependencies and optimizing startup sequences.

The main complaints I’ve seen about it seem to be people that don’t understand that systemd init is a separate thing from all the other systemd stuff. If you don’t like all the other systemd things, you don’t need to install them at all.

When it comes to mass manufacturing, inject molding is the undisputed king. 3D print times are measured in hours per part, injection molding is measured in seconds or even milliseconds per part. Injection molded parts also have a smoother surface finish and are generally stronger than 3D prints.

Setting up an injection molding run is expensive and time consuming. You have to design molds (requires specialized design skills) and have them machined (costly in time and materials). Setting up a 3D print just requires slicing a model and sending to the printer, which can be as little as a few minutes.

3D printing can also create geometries that are impossible in injection molded parts. With injection molding, there are quite a few specific design requirements to allow the plastic to flow into the mold, cool, and be ejected. With 3D printing, there fewer restrictions on the design.

So, if you want a huge number of something it’s definitely worth it to spend the up front time and money to do injection molding. If you are doing smaller quantities, need to get started fast, or require geometries that are impossible with injection molds, then 3D printing may be a better option.

While this certainly makes things difficult, I wouldn’t count Rocky out just yet.

The number of users who care about emulation is utterly insignificant compared to the hold Nvidia has on the compute market. There is a lot of stuff that either requires or is more optimized for CUDA.

Yup, and they are published by Microsoft. So all ChatGPT is doing here is spitting out a key commonly found in it’s training set. It’s not calculating anything.

A simple way to check is to use the strings as a straight edge. Fret a string at fret 1 and a fret 15 simultaneously. That removes the bridge and nut from the equation, and gives you a perfect straight edge. Then check for a small gap between the string and fret 7. The size of that gap tells you how much relief the neck has. You can change it by adjusting the truss rod. Use very small adjustments (like 1/8 turn) and retune the strings before checking the relief again.

If you need to replace the truss rod nut, there are various techniques to remove the stripped one. Start by removing all string tension (this makes it easier to loosen). For a tool, you just need to find something that grabs enough to get it to turn. A slightly larger allen wrench, a blade screwdriver, a screw extractor, etc. Another option would be to find a bit of metal bar that fits in the socket and super glue it on. Then you can grab the bar with vice grip pliers and turn it.

If you are comparing two frequency response graphs, how do you decide which is “better”? It’s totally subjective and depends on what sound you prefer. And there’s much more to choosing a guitar than that. For example, the action and quality of the fretboard is a major consideration.

Definitely agree on Celeste. The way the experience of playing the game mirrors the story is masterful.

Can you post a photo of your actual connector? Inspect it closely for broken/damaged pins. Where do the other ends of these cables go? If it’s a proprietary connector that’s hard-wired into the motor, then replacement cables might not be readily available. If the connector is broken and replacements are not available, then I would probably consider replacing the connectors with a soldered connection.
