i am getting this error when trying to upload an image (web and voyager client).

anybody having the same problem?

{"data":{"error":"unknown","message":"Request error: error sending request for url (http://pictrs:8080/image): error trying to connect: tcp connect error: Connection refused (os error 111)"},"state":"success"}

I have (had?) A win10 machine for gaming with a nvidia 1080 for the past ten years since gaming wasn't performant enough for me on Linux. Nouveau wasn't cutting it fps wise and the nvidia drivers were a nightmare if you dared to alt-tab or expected more than 20fps.

I bought a mid tier (radeon7600xt) from AMD and it was (I am not kidding) plug and play. And I don't mean the Microsoft blue screen presentation plugnplay.

Natively I got performant 3d fps (glxgears must be celebrating its 100th birthdaynow) and thanks to valves wine fork it was even easier to get more demanding games up and running. Before icouldn't even run portal.

Thank you AMD for doing something right where nvidia is obviously screwing up.

hi again, since i had a bad idea in my last post i wanted to try again to get some feedback i could understand and apply.

the idea is to make a vacuum (the appliance) play a few seconds of r2d2 sounds. the vacuum is hauled around on the scaffolding on a construction site and wont be necessarily standing upright (while idle or in used).

my original idea was to have some kind of trigger through a sensor (SW-18010, or something) that draws zero power (like a tilt switch, but position independent). that trigger should pull a pin high on the dfmini mp3 player (cheap player board) which in turn would play a few audio files while powered.

so sensor -> 555 astable -> df mini player -> speaker (piezzo maybe).

any ideas or pointers? is the idea of zero power in this case even possible (never used the 555 before), is maybe a attiny a better idea while in deep sleep?

battery life of 1year + would be ideal.

To all the electronic nerds out there: I am trying to trigger a 555 timer by movement in a random direction that also occurs randomly and any change in position should trigger the 555. AFAIK tilt switches are not useable here. Does this idea make sense?

Ferrite core In orange, spool in blue.

Would there be a voltage generated by movement if the core is suspended by some kind of spring or rubber band?

The idea being to play a sound from a df mini player by pulling a pin high for 3 seconds.

I am on a private tracker but not German content is uploaded. Anybody that has a tip can pm me!
