Replacing thunar with ranger? (or how can I use ranger to manage external volumes/drives/media/USBs)

Reply in thread

It's worth noting that the job of auto-mounting a removable drive is often hidden behind the popular file managers, if you want to do it without one you are probably looking for the "udiskie" application that does this in a more agonistic/generic sense. https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie. With that running in the background to automount, then you can just access the drives from their auto mountpoints in the default location of /run/media/username/drive_label

Flat bur grinder changes after cleaning

I believe the calibration for these grinders looks something like

  1. Unplug power
  2. Slowly turn grinder by hand while empty
  3. Slowly adjusting grinder knob until grinding plates just barely touch when spun by hand
  4. Adjust dial facade to indicate this is the new "zero" location

Either way, the term "calibration" + the name of your grinder should get you a fairly specific run down.

It's worth noting that if your grinder wasn't calibrated like this when you got it then your notes will indeed need to be redone. But only once because next time you disassemble for cleaning you start at the known zero point again by going through the simple calibration process.

Benchtop current sense amplifier?

I mean what you are describing sounds like an exact match for oscilloscope current probes : https://www.digikey.com/en/articles/understanding-selecting-effectively-using-current-probes They are expensive, but convert AC and DC current to a voltage range reasonable for a scope and do so in an isolated manner. Bandwidth is basically as much as you are willing to pay for.

For current shunts there is the EEVblog uCurrent but it's not isolated, just a very low burden voltage shunt and amplifier essentially> https://www.eevblog.com/projects/ucurrent/
