Automation: Fireplace Video AndroidTV when I get home

I finally found out you can use the Android Debug Bridge integration to play specific YouTube videos on Smarttube (adfree youtube app)!

This is triggered when I get home, along with my lights turning on. I have additional actions to set the volume low as well.

You just need to have ADB enabled on the TV and enter it's IP in the integration setup (leave port as is)

Now I am wondering if I can set it up to play my favorite shows in Stremio, starting where I left off last.

action: androidtv.adb_command
metadata: {}

  device_id: 31ecf6603ac8b90769db6a689d0bbeb9

Finally made a Floorplan!

I used SweetHome3D + Gimp to recreate my whole home!

Lots of measuring and downloading textures and models, but I finally have a digital 'clone' of my home!

The lights all react to changes in color and brightness, and are clickable. I made the buttons transparent so it looks cleaner.

Thermostat is in the center, if clicked it opens the thermostat options. The background glow of the temperature turns blue when cooling and red when heating (black when idle)

My 3D Printer can be turned on by clicking on it too, plus it shows the current progress if it is running.

I'd love to see other people's floorplans for ideas, comment with a pic if you have one set up!

"Time Since Last Shower" tracking

I constantly forget to take showers due to depression. I know I'm not the only one 😂 summer is early here in Texas and I don't want to be the stinky dude

Uses the humidity readings of my bathroom to determine whether I was in the shower:

  • A running 1 hour average of the bathroom humidity is measured.
  • If the current humidity is 8% above the average, it is triggered as "wet".
  • Then it marks down the last time, and then converts that to "days & hours since" last shower.

I have a badge at the top of my main dashboard that will let me know how long it's been. It's already been useful. If I see anything over 2 days I know it's past time for a shower

I got a false positive from washing my hands when it was set to trigger by 5% increases, so I changed it to 8%.

Happy to share my code if anyone wants to do the same!

Edit: code in a comment below!

SuperSafe DeAR22

Shooting this will never get old.

I modified one of the printed SuperSafety trips (debo's version) so the dwell time is basically 0. I've estimated it at 1200RPM based on slow-mo video. (20 rounds per second)

I also printed my bolt weight, and filled it with tungsten powder. This works surprisingly well, I cant see ANY bolt bounce in slow-mo.

Most of it is printed in PA12-CF some in PLA+ (like the brace)

I used to have so many issues with my barrel nuts softening when I used to shoot binary. This PA12-CF is taking repeated mag dumps like a champ. over 1k rounds through this exact configuration.

Printing a SME for sound mitigation too.

I checked AI about the exact legality, it said not only is it good to go unregistered, it is a "living museum of the inadequacies of the ATF" :)

Brace, not stock.
SME, not suppressor.
AFG, not VFG.
SuperSafe, not FA.

Charging Dock for XMax V3 Pro!

This dock allows you to route a USB cable into it so you can drop your XMax v3 Pro on it to charge.

The USB-C hole is larger than most plugs on purpose so most will fit. Use a small amount of glue to secure the cable in place.

I suggest routing it through the dock, then plug it into the vape. Apply a little glue to the edges of the USB cable and insert it all into the dock. This will ensure it always connects when you put the vape down.

I also will be selling this via my webstore, printed/shipped or as an STL (if you wanted to support me)

Help Replicating a filter

My buddy has a cold plunge and this filter started cracking. After looking at it you can tell it's definitely 3d printed (and well)

On the left you can see my first attempt. I just cut rectangular holes in CAD and it's pretty close but not pretty. Printed in PETG on a K1 Max

Is there a way to do this in the slicer instead? I played around with 0 walls and different infill types but that didn't work out

"MMUs are wasteful!"

Decided to do multicolor accents on a fosscad print and made a little cow from the purge material for my friend's kid

If you are using purge objects with you MMU you should start! Cuts the waste down to just mere grams.

This was made on a 3D chameleon hooked up to my K1 Max.

Magsafe Steering Wheel! (For racing games)

I've been playing some gyroscope based racing games on my phone and thought it would be cool to have a physical steering wheel to hold.

Since I already have a magsafe ring stuck to the back of my OnePlus Open I designed it to use magnets.

Functionally it makes the games way easier to play since you can really precisely tilt the phone. You can even steer one-handed pretty easily too

The magnets I used are a little weak so I'll be replacing that with another stronger magnet ring I have

Designed in fusion 360, printed in pla+ on K1max

So close! (Sugar Cane by IHG)

I've been growing this same phenotype of sugar cane for a year and a half now. I just can't give it up!

It's a complete frost monster and a pretty good producer. The last plant was over a half pound! Just about 1g per watt!

Grown in 5 gallon DWC hydro

Might be moving to a Prohibition State soon :(
I'm hoping one of my neighbors will keep this pheno alive!

Rooted Phone + Galaxy Watch?

I am finally back to having a rooted phone after a decade! Feels nice to have control over my phone again.

The only thing left to get working again for me is the Samsung Wear connection to my Watch6.
I can get pretty far in the setup, but it eventually says it can't connect.

I tried the Magisk module GoogleSpoofForWear and even edited my .prop file, no luck! Safetynet passes and playintegrity is intact.

Followed every guide I could find, so reaching out to you guys for help! anyone get their watch working on a rooted phone? (android 14)

Edit "Solution": I was able to get it to work after fully resetting my watch. I kept the app magisk hidden but not sure if it was necessary... I didn't want to have to do that but at least it works now!

Faux Wood Grain using MMU!

I made a magsafe mount in black for my Kia and I didn't like the layer lines on the curved parts, but it gave me the idea to try using wood

I have a 3D Chameleon MMU so I added color changes randomly throughout between two shades of brown. One is wood, one is PLA.

It honestly came out way better than I even expected!

If anyone wants the STL I can provide it!
