Specialized Cirrus 4 groupset upgrade
  • Do you think I would have an issue with a crazy chainline with something like this or should it all work fine? The long cage derailleur is good for up to 46 and the 36t in the front will give me a least a LITTLE speed in the flats.

  • 4 months durability for an $800 phone!
  • Vegan leather is such crap and I say that as a vegan. I DO always put my phone into a full vegan leather wallet case, but I absolutely will go through a case or 3 before I chuck the phone.

    Specialized Cirrus 4 groupset upgrade

    So I have a lovely Cirrus 4 that I call my adventure bike. Currently I am running the stock groupset that I would like to upgrade. This bike currently has a hyperglide hub and threaded bottom bracket. What I want to do is get a nice 1-by front ring and have a bigger range in the back. I am totally happy sacrificing speed for hauling so I would like to get something like a 42 in the front, and a 11-42 in the back. I don't have much experience with these lower tier groupsets and where the mountain bike compatibility starts and ends.

    Has anyone done any kind of rebuild like this?

    Is there anyone here who uses BSD on their desktop?
  • I would consider it for like a kiosk but not a desktop I'd want to use and enjoy. Hardware support is a big one, speed of updates, lack of support release for certain software packages, ect. For example, I use PyCharm for both work and play, and there's no native client in BSD. I haven't even looked at the state of Docker.

    Currently, Docker needs VirtualBox installed and configured.

    No, gracias.

    Beyond TinkcerCAD

    What CAD can you guys recommend for progressing beyond TinkerCAD?

    I really enjoy OpenSCAD and will continue to build that skillset but sometimes I just want to much about with a mouse in 3D space. I used to really enjoy doing mockups in SketchUP when that was still a free Google project.

    I'm definitely not designing engines or commercial products. I'm mostly just designing small things for the 3D printer.

    Also, Open Source is a must. I'd rather struggle with a free product that could be made better than pay for a commercial product that does way more than what I need it for.

    Finally! My own working LCARs panels!

    I've been putting this off for way too long but I finally installed the LCARs theme in my HA and got to work redesigning all my dashboards.

    ESPHome advanced troubleshooting

    I started mucking about with ESPHome yesterday and setup a WROOM with an AHT22 temp/humidity sensor. Running the wizard and adding the configs is easy-peasy. I started to have issues as soon as I wanted to flash.

    • If the AHT22 is plugged in, I cannot flash the device over USB.
    • I can check the serial logs once the device is flashed and then plug in the AHT22 once the device is booted and get readings, but
    • Once I unplug the ESP32 from the serial port and plug it into a power supply, I got nothing. No network activity at all.
    • Unplug the AHT22, plug into the power source, wait a few seconds, plug in the AHT22 has seemed to work correctly this morning and HA is pulling data but I tried that last night a few times and it didn't work -- so unsure why it's working this morning other than strange timing when I'm plugging the thing back in.

    I am using the basic esp32dev firmware, which I am assuming works because it DOES work, eventually, but I'm not confident I'm using the right base but I cannot figure out which one to use.
