To charge your 48v ebike battery you will probably be looking at a proper 48v solar charge controller from victron then. They are expensive but worth it. dont want to fry your battery with no-name brand junk pwm advertising as mppt. , Though you can get away with the cheaper 48v 100/20 or 100/10s versions if you want to save some cash. a single 12v solar panel wont cut it though you need a couple 200w or 400w foldups chained to add voltage up to around 48v to charge a big battery effectively.

If money isnt a big issue and you want something truly beefy for a solar system I would recommend something like this then. Your solution is essentially a usbc-pd car charger without the ability to remove from a cigarette plug. You would achieve the same affect wiring up a female cigarette car plug and buying a regular pd car charger with the bonus of being able to swap the outlet out for other 12v car plugs as needed.

If you want an integrated charger thats fine though at the end of the day theyre all just fancy variable dc to dc converters that take in 12-24v and pop out the usbc-pd voltage ranges as rated. just wanted to give you some options.

Im a electical engineer and made my own 200w solar system. I feel your pain had to mcguyver some stuff to run off usbcpd. LMK if you want to talk shop. Related guide I wrote explaining USBC-pd and dc-to-dc on lemmy

12v solar -> USB PD adapter

Is this by chance closer to what you are looking for? input voltage range is 13V-27V, output is usbc-pd 18w or 12v-1.5A the DC out is a bit higher.

You can make some pretty potent lube topicals at home for a fun night with the computer :)

Okay I think the term ‘foot-gun’ is supposed to evoke the image of someone loading a gun and pointing it at their own foot. I can’t help trying to picture a gun thats operated by a foot. Like a mech suit with a robot leg that also fires massive tank shattering shells when you do a roundhouse kick as a human operator. Or a veteran prosthetic leg that’s also a rifle when you kick it the right way.

The brain rot seeps just a little bit more every time I see the term ‘foot-gun’ please help.

I use Hemp, btw.

Thanks for taking time out of your day to explain it for me gaael its a decent play on words! I just wasnt picking up what you were putting down today

Its been eight hours, you have four upvotes, and this comment still reads like word salad to me. I’m assuming im missing something and this is a reference or an in-joke isnt it?

But is it a figurative burying or a meta-literal one? I mean if you really think about things entomologically and we pick apart the Latin root words of “bury” and “dogpile” we might just find that the meaning of lemmy dogpile changes completely depending on context, literally figuratively.

Language is fucked. We really need telepathically beaming abstract concepts directly into brain matter so I don’t have to crawl through linguist brainrot reply chains.

Why didn’t you just cross post to both? Fits well in both.

“Look, I didn’t spend months hyperobsessing on /x/, digging through thousands of succubus tupla summoning post and self-inflicting disassociative psychosis to vizualize a vampire GF only to deal with my problems in a healthy normie sheeple NPC way. Fuck that. I mean how would I even tell them about the goat sacrifices? Oh I can still hear the bleeting sometimes. Now shut up, Lumali is warning me about the reptillians under the flat hollow earth slowly replacing my loved ones with robot clones to spy on me again.”

Im an extremest “No the glass is at precisely half capacity. I meticulously found a geometric proof to show its the fill line is exactly at half of the glass. I counted the fucking molecules one at a time and statistically compared them with a full glass and a empty glass. Its half, no more no less. Both of your perceptions of the world are deeply warped by internal biases.” Kind of guy myself. Or in Lemmy speak, a FiLtHy CeNtaRist!!!

The number pad only ever became relevant to me after decades when I began playing video games that have more keybindings than I have brain cells. Caves Of Qud makes use of basically the the whole number pad just to manually move in 8 different directions.

Some people need something to rage and virtue signal against. Those who work in private STEM sectors or took machine learning classes years before the LLM craze already understand the tool is here and are willing to learn to work with it if applicable in their job or daily life.

Those who don’t understand anything about the science of machine learning and are angry at the how megacorporations got away with unconsentually scraping their copyright infringed data off the internet for the first iterations of training data still get to let off some steam by calling it ‘hyped autocomplete just as bad as NFTs that will never do what a person can’.

If I were an artsy type whos first exposure to ML was having my work stolen followed by the thief bragging to my face about how copy protection laws dont matter to the powerful and now they can basically copy my honed style 1 to 1 with a computer to sell as an product, I would be unreasonably pissed too and not interested this whole 'AI’thing. Megacorps made chatGPT and stable diffusion using my work therefore AI bad. I get it.

That said, I’m not an artsy type or an idealist. I’m a practical engineer who builds systems to process the flows of information and energy with the tools available at my dispersal. Theres more to machine learning than proprietary models made with stolen information to be sold to th masses. Instead models are just the next new way to process large datasets full of complicated information. Its just that now were taking cues from natures biological information processing systems. Whether such processes prove more certain and effective to the old analog and digital ways have yet to be seen. Perhaps using these new tools will open up entirely different ways of treating information for all of society. Perhaps it will be just another niche thing for researchers to write papers about. Time will tell.

The inefficacy of current public education system is a feature not a bug. The rulers want workers just smart enough to measure inches and run the machines to keep the money printers flowing. But not smart enough to realize just how badly they’re getting fucked over by a system that sold out and threw them overboard before they were even born. You need high level language and a general understanding of history to comprehend high level abstractions that govern human hierarchy. Ill bet 5$ on which subjects are getting most cuts in public schools.

I was going to say it sounds like linux mint would be your dream OS its stable and bullet proof. Download everything through package manager if you really need up to date program flatpaks or appimages have you covered. Never have the computer force an update on you or change things around again. Both my elderly parents use LM every day for years not one complaint after I set everything up for them with like web app shortcuts to banks and stuff. I think youll like it, modern linux is so much better than years ago its unreal. Look for a cheap used thinkpad if you a laptop user.

In the winter my home can go down into the 40F-50F range with all available heating running on full. Even with electric blankets its better to layer up with thermal underwear, hats, coats, three layers of pants, and gloves.

My mom says she can’t stand a bunch of fabric on her which I guess is fair. I personally can’t stand freezing to death while I sleep myself so its a fair trade.
