  • “whatever you do don’t forget to check the big tab is on the left and the little tab is on the right, even if you get it backwards it won’t close as a safety precaution.”

    Gets call of machine not working in another country, sends out consultant.

    Big tab is on the right, little tab is on the left and the entire tray has been forced into position because “it wasn’t closing properly so we had to apply a lot of force”

    Professionals with confidence are the absolute worst, I tell ever consultant or technician that comes into my lab “I’ll be in the corner if you need me to grab you any supplies or coffee, do you mind if I ask questions as you go so I can have a better understanding of what’s going on with this magical box”. I like to think they appreciate me.







  • Did you run the line under ground or through conduit? Disconnect it from both sides, attach string/fishing line to one side, pull cable out of conduit on the side without the string attached. Detach string from either meet cable, reattach string with Ethernet cable and the additional cable (speaker cable in this case), pull string from the original side until both cables make their appearance.

    Outside of walkie talkies (have you considered walkie talkie? Maybe put an antenna outside of the shop?) this is the simplest way to do it (imo, but I don’t play with raspberry pi’s)





  • From Amazon, I found “IS543 5/4/3 WIRE INTERCOM STAT-PLAST”

    It’s similar to what we had growing up, 1 in the shed, 1 in the kitchen 1 in the game room, push the button of the location you wanted to talk to, only 1 direction of communication at a time, over.

    I feel like you’re making it way more complicated than it needs to be, why would you involve a switch or processor when you’re just carrying sound waves? You don’t even need a modulator, it just needs to connect a microphone to a speaker like cans on a string. Is it the highest quality? No, will it record your conversation for posterity? Also no. Will it let you tell at someone to get their asses in for dinner, absolutely









  • I think you’d be an unreliable ally at best and a coward towards anything that doesn’t effect you personally.

    If you were anything more than a voice on the Internet our relationship would be put to the wind.

    I would love to see your evidence of any non-violent society existing for any period of time. I don’t need to hack you limb from limb to stop violence, I also don’t believe violence has a single ignition point, and it’s obvious you do

    Kumbaya yourself under the Russian Pontoon bridge you crept from under you faithless troll.
