Hi everyone,

I've been looking around the DMV for a place to get my espresso machine serviced (ECM Classika) but it seems most of the small appliance shops are understandably focused on more normal/common appliances.

Any one have a recommendation on where they take theirs? The machine has been a tank since I bought it 10 years ago but could use a good cleaning.

Hi everyone,

I've spent about four days now trying to find the eight configuration for running Qwen 27b in production using VLLM but have been getting significant decreases in performance with the FP8 safetensors in comparison to the llama.cpp variants, especially under load/high concurrency. Our quality benchmarks drop by almost 20% in absolute terms. Would some mind sharing their VLLM config they use in production that execute correctly? I'm at a loss at this point :)

Thanks in advance!

We were driving back from the Gaylord in National Landing (seeing the Ice exhibit) and saw what appeared to be a big black plume of smoke from some building or region in the distance to the north of us as we crossed the Woodrow Wilson bridge.

Any idea what it is?

Hi there,

We bought a house a few years back that came with an av system for a hometheater space. It wass built in to the ceiling for the 5 channel and an IB woofer (a budget conscious 8" from Pyle without an amp and not currently wired up). Our current AVR, also inherited, is clearly on its way out: a Yamaha RX-v473 with significant gremlins in its HDMI processing.

It's not clear what the ceiling speakers are so not entirely sure their power ratings are. They sound fine and we don't run them loudly so I suspect 80w rms is probably fine. I don't think they're anything special. Teenagers will, of course, be teenagers when we're not around however :)

It's time to upgrade the receiver a

Hi there,

I have a couple of questions which I hope will be easy to answer. Currently looking at using a CRS310-8G-2S-IN for a one size fits all solution:

1. Use it to route to my broadband (1.1 Gbps). I've tested internally and it seems to peak at around 1.3 gbps for the current routing/firewall rules I have, which tracks the block diagram so I think it should be ok for now. In the future I'll add a proper router if speeds exceed it.

2. I want to create separate VLANs for wireless ssids coming from tp-link omada wifi 7 APs. I'll have three wireless ssids on three separate VLANs - regular network for trusted devices (e.g. servers, NAS, some personal devices), a guest network for visit

Hi there,

I'm trying to figure out a way to use an existing TP-Link mesh system with an Ethernet backhaul to have custom DNS and network isolation properties. My desired setup is to have my DNS server on my main network use a pihole instance. However, on the guest network, I can't configure a separate DNS server and of course isolation results in clients on the guest network not able to see the pihole server. If I setup a secondary DNS to say 8.8.8.8, then naturally the whole point of pihole ends up failing.

There are tons of comments in the forums asking for separate DNS servers for the different network modes and largely indifference from TP-Link on adding it.

My current thought is t

Hi everyone!

I'm learning to use OpenSCAD and so far have really enjoyed the flow; as a lifelong programmer, scripting and parametric editing comes very naturally to me.

Right now, my main use case is for modeling projects around the house as well as other customizations I might need. The wife, naturally, has some opinions around aesthetics that I'm trying to incorporate into my workflow and have a few simple questions I hope that can help.

Often times I want to add a logo flush with an object I'm modeling; modeling it in OpenSCAD as separate objects is pretty simple (usually involves a difference in a hole created from an import SVG) that I'd like my slicer to be able to manipulate c

For some reason, my Google wifi runs at about 10% speed unless I run the internal speed test within Home; afterwards, it runs at full speed. This manifests both over wifi as well as hard wired.

Any ideas what's going on?

Haven't seen him around recently and our neighborhood is used to getting it every week.

Any idea if they're ok?

Hi there,

I recently replaced the backplate of the RP4Pro after the trigger, like many others, broke. However, after reassembly, everything worked except for the Y button which now no longer registers. Any theories or tips on what might be wrong and how I could possibly fix it?

Hi there,

I'm looking for a new accountant for taxes this year; my current one is in California and doesn't know Virginia code as well. Any recommendations?

Hi folks,

Just wanted to briefly talk about my experience fixing my Sette 270wi. I've had it for almost 4 years at this point and over that time, I noticed the macro adjustment had started to shift during grinding, especially on finer settings. We probably average about 2-3 shots a day, so in the thousands of grinds at this point.

I reached out to Baratza to see if they had any solutions they could think of and after some back and forth for diagnosing, they sent me a brand new gearbox and motor. Despite my grinder being out of warranty and expressing my willingness to pay, they sent it free of charge which for this particular part is quite pricey.

Got it installed and it completely fix
