I would like to modify this powder coated extruded aluminium enclosure and know next to nothing about what I'm doing. Most metalwork I have done is drill a few crude holes.

I have this Kawasaki 691225 rotary tool with all sorts of aluminum oxide bits for cutting, drilling, sanding, polishing, etc., metal, and the "non-metal" bits are silicon carbide, so it sounds like it can do everything I need.

Things I would like to do this enclosure:

  1. Level out the protruding corners and make them round
  2. Take the blue off
  3. Make it a few centimetres

Can't find any news articles about this game, only the AP factnote.

Brown and Coleman were fined $6,000 each and Iverson $3,000 for criticizing the referees after Philadelphia's 91-86 loss to New Jersey Wednesday.

I can see that AI only shot once from the line on 20fga so I'm guessing he was getting clobbered.

Maybe someone in here can find an article from a local paper...

The game in question was played on the 25th.

I am struggling to get into Civ6.

Beyond the fog, my biggest annoyance is the change in movement. It is painfully slow and non intuitive and somewhat unpredictable.

It might help me cope if I knew the reason behind the change - was an explanation ever offered?

Kind of a mildlyinteresting post but I've been using a top of the line laptop from 2009 with 8GB of bad RAM for the last few days and linux would struggle to keep going for 4 hours before a complete freeze and a hard shutdown was required, meanwhile Win10 just keep chugging on like nothing's wrong.

Both sticks of RAM are bad and there are also a couple of nvidia GPUs in this thing; it's on Leap15.

Did Microsoft go out of its way to shield its users from the crashing so that they wouldn't get the blame, or has Linux not evolved these abilities yet, or is it Nvidia's fault?

I built this RC filter off of a design from a thread on the diyaudio forums. I had been using it in a different circuit for several months without problem - albeit in a slightly different configuration, with an extra set of capacitors and resistors, and with 2200uF caps in lieu of the 4700uF (didn't have any 2200uFs in =>35v).

I had some extra boards so I decided to pop the filter into my "ghetto bench supply" and after a about a month my first 470mOhm 2W resistor died. It failed open, no visible damage.

It took me quite a while to figure out where the fault was, and I didn't think much of it. So I replaced the dead resistor and

What's the deal with these guys?

My PCB graveyard is littered with them. They don't have much information on them - normally just a capacitance code, and if you're lucky a tolerance letter, and if you're even luckier they'll have an underline which apparently means 50/100V?

What are the typical voltage ratings for 1, 10, 100nF caps? Can I go wrong reusing a 10nF disc cap in a 20 or 30V circuit?

I've been struggling to find a schematic, or simulate myself, of a way to regulate current, down to say 10mA, with LM317 with a linear potentiometer, and it doesn't seem to possible. Best I've been able to find is a way to do it down to ~100mA linearly (with big ass power resistors too).

Which makes me think I'm not using the right IC - are there any current regulator ICs (up to say 30v) that were designed with potentiometer adjustment in mind?

The reason for the linear requirement is to be able to label the pot with easily discernible limit levels.

Running a bit tight on free space on root and want to install a package from Copr that unpacks to 3-4gb. I have another drive mounted via fstab where this package can go.

Is it possible to specify alternate installation path prior to download/install with DNF? I'm on Fedora 28.
