It's been about a month since SoCo Brewing closed and I have not yet found a decent CO2 filler. Last thread was here: https://old.reddit.com/r/AustinBeer/comments/1v2s5qn/co2_refills/ and the conclusions in that thread seem to be:

  • Alamo Welding - no real consensus on price or whether they will check certification on the bottle. Also only open 7-5 M-F so kind of inconvenient if you have a non-welding job.

  • Hoffman's in San Marcos - $40 swap

  • Party Barn at 33rd and Guadalupe - jacked their prices up to $30-$40 for a 5lb fill, no thanks

  • Airgas - $50 swap

  • Round Rock Welding Supply - one comment about it but no price or details

Where have people found for their CO2 fills these day

r/Starlink•

I have a Starlink, I think gen 1 with the large motorized antenna. I only use it when traveling in the RV a few times per year.

With the decreased price of starlink mini to $299, I'm thinking of "upgrading" to the mini and (sell? trade? trash?) my gen 1 dishy and wifi router.

Is this a bad idea? I'm most interested in the smaller size and not having to use a router and the ability to use mini while on long drives out in the middle of nowhere.

Mostly use starlink for work so, e-mail, RDP sessions to remove machines, video calls. Occasional sports streaming.

  • Is there any reason why mini wouldn't be good for my use cases?
  • Biggest problem with starlink service is obstructed sky views

r/1Password•

We have 1Password as our enterprise password manager and we constantly have this super annoying browser tab pop up with "Welcome to 1Password in your browser". I've done all the options, click the puzzle piece extensions button in the toolbar and pinned the 1Password extension.

The trouble is, CorpIT manages the browser and it appears that pinning the extension does not "take" for long and gets reset. So we continuously receive the "welcome" pop up, multiple times per day, and it take control of your session so you absolutely have to deal with it.

It is EXTREMELY annoying. I'd like to know if there's some way to disable this super annoying browser tab - I get it, I've tried to do what t

Is there any way to remove the hot water arm on the Mara X2, perhaps plugging it with something and then being able to remove the plug and reinstall the hot water dispenser arm at a later date?

I never use it and folded up it gets in the way of the brew handle and due to space constraints I'd like to remove it.

When I move an e-mail message from the inbox to a different folder, the current selected message in the inbox jumps to the last message in the inbox. I move stuff all the time and it's annoying to have to scroll back up to the top of the list of messages. Messages in the inbox are sorted by date so it's jumping down to the very oldest message but I would like it to stay at the top of the list on the most recent message.

Is there any way to modify this behavior?

I have a streambar with wireless subwoofer and it's working just fine but it's not quite loud enough for use in my home gym. I have a pair of wired speakers sitting around that I'd like to add to the mix. What is the best way to add these two additional speakers?

There are a variety of converters available, just wondering if there's a best way to get the best sound that will use all the speakers: the streambar speakers, the wireless subwoofer, and the two additional wired speakers. I'm currently using HDMI output to the HDMI (ARC) input on the TV. I'd rather not use an A/V receiver unless these other options won't work.

  • use the optical audio out with a digital to analog splitter
  • HDMI

I have a Lelit Mara X2 and it's great but it is not a plumbed-in model.

Does anyone know of any projects to convert a non-plumb model to have an automatic water source? Once a water line is run to the machine, I'm thinking something like:

  • Small automatic water fill valve in the water reservoir
  • Arduino project with water level detectors in the reservoir controlling a valve
  • or just keep it simple and put in a manual valve

Has anyone done, seen or heard of a similar project?

r/Starlink•

I just got Starlink for RV and I'm wondering if there is a convenient roof mount for an RV roof rack? I'd like something I can mount to the roof rack and then mount dishy on that for when my RV site does not have trees, but I'd also like to be able to push dishy out away from the trees using the long cable when necessary.

Obviously the normal dishy feet will work when it's not mounted on the roof rack but what is a good roof rack mount for dishy when it can be mounted on the roof?

Has there been any discussion of anyone offering Starlink terminal rentals with service? I'd be willing to pay a pretty hefty premium to be able to rent a setup for my RV when I'm on camping trips for a week or two.

It's hard to justify getting my own service when:

  • Having to wait to get an account when my home address cell is full and on waitlist, but I'd never actually need to use it at my home address

  • Paying for service when I'd really only use it for 6 weeks out of the year when I'm on the road
