I've been trying to ride my bike into work instead of driving lately, but today it decided it's had enough of hauling my fat arse around and the derailleur hanger snapped in half.
Probably should use it as an excuse to upgrade, but I hate shopping for expensive things.
tips on soldering
In addition to the other comments - if you're soldering to something that can sink a lot of heat (a great big copper connector, or the ground plane on a circuit board), you will probably need a fairly broad tip. A finer tip can't transfer heat fast enough, so you end up having to hold it in contact for far too long to get hot enough to melt the solder and (counterintuitively) you end up melting plastic or overheating components. Doubly so if you've cranked up the heat to help.
FedEx have their own drivers in Auckland?
I can confirm that they have at least one.
To be fair though, our supplier invests a fairly large chunk of money in freight, and in the past ran their own dedicated flights when the previous carrier (maybe TNT? Can't remember) wasn't reliable enough. I have no idea if FedEx is that good in general or if it's only for these sort of high-priority customers.
Between them, DHL and FedEx get almost all of our parts orders from Melbourne to Pukekohe overnight. They are unbelievably efficient compared to outfits places like Toll or Aramex that can't get packages across Auckland in under a week.
I remember seeing someone combine the two and had Home Assistant pull the photograph from USPS and attaches it to the notification when the mailbox sensor is triggered.
Like some kind of masochist, I volunteered to head in about 90 minutes early, park at Clevedon, and ride to meet them at the top. I was only about five minutes short of actually beating them to the top, which I'm pretty proud of. That climb is hard.
I finally managed to convince my siblings to join me on a bike ride and we went over to Hunua on Sunday and did the easy ride from the top of Moumoukai Hill Road down to the Clevedon market. Highly recommend if you're in the area, and it was a ridiculously beautiful day for it.
I figure it's just entitled people using them to stop someone else parking there when they leave.
At least federation is doing something with each action. Would be nice if they could be batched, though.
Dumb question: What happens whenever someone spins up a new instance?
I'm in the same boat - zero ads in Sync for Lemmy until this last update. I just assumed the purchase from Sync for Reddit had carried over, but I guess either LJ changed his mind or it wasn't intentional.
