Sorry to necro this, but, does anyone have any updates on his court date?
Back in March, an Observer article said it had been set for sometime in July
https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/local/crime/article315235473.html
However, I have been checking the Stanley County Criminal Court Calendar and there is no mention of him through the 27th.
Does anyone know more?
Thanks.
Ok, I'm not sure what is going on, so I am bringing this to you all, the brain-trust.
I have several nodes around...a Seeed Solar on a 20' pole in the back yard, a Heltec v3 plugged in on the porch, a Heltec v4 in a solar node in the car, and a T1000-E attached to the back of my phone. Everyone is fat and happy.
However, I've been noticing some funky data coming from the Seeed on the pole and the V4 in the car, both of which have GPS enabled.
Their position, as far as Lat/Lon is concerned, is static and accurate. However, the altitude fluctuates as much as +-20 meters every ping/refresh. 15 min ago, it was at 188m...now it's at 193m....in 15 min it might be at 232m...and on and on it goes.
I have confirmed this is happening on BOTH nodes with GPS and have confirmed it via multiple MT clients (MT on Linux, MT on the phone, MeshDash on Linux). All report the same altitude for the same nodes, but that number changes wildly every 5-10 min.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
(None of the nodes have Precise Location turned on)
So, I've got a Heltec v3 mounted at the top of a 25' flagpole in my yard inside a box with a solar panel. It gets about 60-75% direct sunlight between sunrise and sunset (trees, other houses, etc...).
It seems to charge fine, only lose between 10-15% battery overnight, and charge back up to full during the day...as long as it is sunny.
However, as soon as we have 2-3 days of overcast and rain, the battery just drains until it shuts down and I have to take it off the pole and restart it.
I'm really curious as to what I can do/change to make the batteries not drain so fast.
I like to use different apps (Meshtastic, MeshDash, etc) to look at the nodes...check the maps...chat on the channels, etc. Does that cause it to drain faster?
I've got it set to Client as opposed to Client_Mute...does that make a difference?
I don't have any of the power-savings things set...if I turned those on, would it prevent the node from "dying"? I'd prefer it just "go to sleep" until the power charges back up to a certain level and then it comes back? I really don't want to have to bring down a 25' flagpole every time this happens.
I really hope there is a solution, because if it is this bad a month before the summer solstice, I don't wanna think about what it's gonna be like in the winter.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
So, I've been running 26.04 for a little over a month now and everything seems to working well.
However, I keep getting this little "process crashed" popups down in the lower right. Usually it's Brave, or when I close a particular appimage, such as Beeper (messaging app). I know it has happened with other things, but those are the two that come to mind.
And...It just tells me something crashed, but everything keeps working fine from what I can tell.
I can't "reproduce" it, because I have no idea when nor where it is going to happen.
And, like I said, it doesn't seem to have any ill affect on what I am doing.
Has anyone else encountered this?
Greetings all.
I am trying to find a way to have my Outlook calendar display the current day's events on a Plasma desktop widget, but can't seem to find anything that works.
I'm running 26.04 LTS.
Any ideas?
