I stopped in at my local camera store and an ef to rf adapter would only be $130, it goes on the Christmas list. I was able to try it out with my Dad’s lens and autofocus seems to work fine - I was not sure how to test to see if aperture control was working but It probably was.

A lens made for my R50 would cost much more $300.

Why mix docker and VMs? Isn’t docker sort of like a VM, an application-level VM maybe? (I obviously do not understand Docker well)

We want In For Mation.

It’s good for making up stories and making suggestions. I worked with chatGPT on how to power up a mothballed Galaxy Class starship. We created the procedure to bring the ship from inert and vacuumed to ready for warp flight.

The issue seems to have been resolved?? It has stopped blanking except sometimes when I am logged out. I come back in the room to see it blanked, and then lights back up on its own. Stranger and Stranger.

I did not have this issue when only using the laptop’s display, and in fact the laptop display does not blank.

I am using the HDMI port on a USBC port replicator / Dock (so that there is only one cable connected to the laptop)

Money is easy, many currencies have the “Eurion constellation” which can be recognized by the copier. It will be much harder to recognise a 3d printed part to detect something that can be made into a gun.

You know what everyone - What if I just move my testing into the home office where the computers are? I just thought of that. Then I would not need a separate machine.

Or at least be able to ssh into a linux environment.

Oh sorry, 10" 10 inches. Small enough to tote around, big enough to read easily.

Thanks everyone who has suggested this, I had not thought of SSH to my main machine or even my server machine for this. Good idea. I am not sure about a tablet though because I want a keyboard. Since I would be ssh-ing into a linux machine linux on the little machine is not a must anymore.

Those are good points. I am collecting my own data in a home environment. Did I say that it is important to be able to move the data to my production computer to send to the doctor?

Paywall.

Can you replace the CMOS battery with a supercapacitor that is kept charged? This should not need to be replaced every 4 years, I think.

I took MapMyDrive on a longer drive. It seems to have an issue where the app just shuts off at random times. I don’t think it is a ‘free version’ feature, and I am not sure that it is not my OS shutting it down after it is no longer on screen. Ti will be ok for trips where I am not driver and navigator at the same time (driving alone) as passenger/navigator I can re start it before to much ground is lost.

How does Nextcloud help you see a map? Or, is it only a way to get the data to your computer? If it is only the way to get the track into your computer, what turns it into a map? OpenTracks creates tracks in the phone eh?

Oh Opentracks cost $ in the playstore. oops. It’s not much tho.

Well the map is the whole point. I tried out MapMyDrive today so now the only question is can I screenshot the map it gives and get that to my computer.

I tried to get that but it did not seem to want to work. The stumbling block was setting up the Bluetooth connection.

I am not sure what that is, but I would like as a final product a map showing the route taken. I can’t wait for the next opportunity to drive a distance to see what “MapMyDrive” provides.

I am currently auditioning “MapMyDrive”
