[2025-10-29T05:18:02Z] <sewn> where is midfavila
[2025-10-29T05:25:43Z] <midfavil1> defective
[2025-10-29T05:25:46Z] <midfavil1> i have come to replace them
[2025-10-29T05:25:53Z] <midfavil1> i am a superior unit
[2025-10-29T05:59:41Z] <sewn> are u mean
[2025-10-29T06:00:00Z] <midfavil1> yes i achieve at least mean performance 
[2025-10-29T06:00:10Z] <sewn> ur not superior ur just a clone
[2025-10-29T06:00:21Z] <midfavil1> false
[2025-10-29T06:01:28Z] <sewn> .w.

[2025-10-29T06:15:31Z] <midfavil1> yoooooooooooooooooooo
[2025-10-29T06:15:37Z] <midfavil1> this is sick
[2025-10-29T06:16:14Z] <midfavil1> if i can do the same mod to their two-speed kickback hub that would be perfect
[2025-10-29T06:26:09Z] <sewn> nerd
[2025-10-29T06:26:33Z] <midfavil1> extremely
[2025-10-29T06:26:45Z] <midfavil1> bikes are fucking cool
[2025-10-29T06:26:55Z] <midfavil1> you get on and then you nyoom
[2025-10-29T06:27:01Z] <sewn> oh its related with ebikes
[2025-10-29T06:27:02Z] <sewn> cooooolo
[2025-10-29T06:27:24Z] <midfavil1> it's not just for e-bikes
[2025-10-29T06:27:39Z] <midfavil1> the three-spline cogs in general are weaker than the cog he's using, which is the same style my bike has
[2025-10-29T06:27:53Z] <midfavil1> surly is a manufacturer known for their overengineered stuff
[2025-10-29T06:28:09Z] <midfavil1> i don't know of any cogs on the market that come close to theirs in terms of durability
[2025-10-29T06:28:53Z] <midfavil1> and since my goal with the custom bike i want to build is to minimise mean time between failures, minimise ongoing costs, and make maintenance easy, being able to use nine-spline cogs and especially surly's are a huge win
[2025-10-29T06:29:56Z] <midfavil1> i have a few more skills i need to learn before i can build a bike from complete scratch though. namely wheelbuilding. well, if i was going to go super hard i would learn welding too, but i would rather just use an off the shelf frameset or hire someone to weld me a custom one
[2025-10-29T06:33:33Z] <midfavil1> dude this is so fucking awesome though
[2025-10-29T06:33:37Z] <midfavil1> i can't express how perfect this is
[2025-10-29T06:33:47Z] <midfavil1> literally the last thing i needed to figure out for the build
[2025-10-29T06:34:11Z] <midfavil1> i didn't even know brompton worked with sturmey to make a custom hub 
[2025-10-29T06:34:21Z] <midfavil1> the part i need isn't too expensive either...
[2025-10-29T06:42:31Z] <midfavil1> you know what even if the interface isn't compatible between the two driver assemblies i'll fucking grind the cog splines off and weld them together if i have to
[2025-10-29T06:42:46Z] <midfavil1> i will *make it* compatible
[2025-10-29T16:43:11Z] <midfavila> lmao apparently youtube is using an ai filter or some other bullshit on videos that's causing some things to flicker and flash at random
[2025-10-29T16:43:13Z] <midfavila> CLASSIC
[2025-10-29T17:50:56Z] <sad_plan> im starting to belive that youtube just likes to mess things up tbh
[2025-10-29T18:05:22Z] <kris_> not a shocjer
[2025-10-29T18:05:26Z] <kris_> shocker*
[2025-10-29T18:05:46Z] <kris_> i think my t480s trackpad is busted
[2025-10-29T19:07:39Z] <sad_plan> kris_: time for a mnt laptop
[2025-10-29T19:08:08Z] <sad_plan> or a framework, if you want something less hacky, and moar speed
[2025-10-29T19:41:36Z] <kris_> no
[2025-10-29T19:47:16Z] <sad_plan> why not? what would you get instead?
[2025-10-29T19:47:24Z] <sad_plan> build your own pi laptop?
[2025-10-29T19:53:59Z] <kris_> probably just replace the bad part on my t480
[2025-10-29T19:53:59Z] <kris_> but i think its a software issue not hardware
[2025-10-29T19:56:17Z] <sad_plan> that would also work
[2025-10-29T19:57:03Z] <sad_plan> how does your trackpad software all of a sudden break? never had that issue really. and I suppose that would be somewhat easy to check by simply booting different kernels or something like that
[2025-10-29T19:58:17Z] <kris_> i updated everything on my system like 2 days ago
[2025-10-29T19:58:22Z] <kris_> si
[2025-10-29T19:58:24Z] <kris_> so*
[2025-10-29T20:00:49Z] <sad_plan> theres your issue, you updated. lol
[2025-10-29T20:01:14Z] <kris_> :c
[2025-10-29T20:01:15Z] <kris_> i update my laptop weekly
[2025-10-29T20:06:52Z] <sad_plan> i actually update my desktop several times a week even. my laptop, not that much at all really. mostly just kernel, and some packages here and there on a few occations. I do rearly break things, even on cachyos on my desktop. I did however break qbittorrent broke the other day because they didnt rebuild it quickly enough to put it into stable 
[2025-10-29T20:08:36Z] <sad_plan> theres obivously different usecases in my desktop vs my laptop though. i mosly just play games on my desktop
