I’m looking to replace my car stereo. Please give me some recommendations for installers. It’s a pretty simple job, nothing over-the-top. Simple head unit swap.
I had an old Dell XPS 12 lying around. As you can see, the display was clearly shot. It’s a common problem with this model. I could not get rid of it. I love the form factor. I also love the form factor of the Commodore 64. There was my inspiration. I wanted to use it for a basic home appliance, possibly make it a Pi Hole or a home server later on. I put Mint on it with a William Gibson wallpaper. Shout out to the Godfather of Cyberpunk. Then I removed the display. For now, it’s going to sit in the hallway as a general use machine. I have plans to build a base for it, giving it a 1970s terminal vibe. That monitor will also be replaced with a touchscreen. The only real hiccup is that the WiFi antenna was routed through the bezel. So now it’s just the card on the board with no antenna. I had to move my mesh satellite right next to the base. It’s still only 85%. I’ve ordered a WiFi USB dongle to fix that. Coiled cables have also been ordered to lean into the cyberpunk vibe.
I’d like to replace the radio with a unit that also has Apple CarPlay and works with the backup camera. What would the collective you recommend?
I don’t know what’s going on, but the on ramp to the 408 eastbound from Good Homes Rd is full-on blocked right now.
I was upgrading Kali and got this screen. Any ideas on how to fix it? Or do I just reinstall Kali at this point?
Edit: When I go to restart the computer, it goes through the normal boot sequence and ends at this screen before it asks for a password.
So here’s the issue. I’ve got 2008 XL7. It won’t start on its own. I put the key in and nothing happens. No lights, no ac, no nothing. If I jump it off another vehicle, it starts and runs. But the moment I put it into gear or remove the jumper cables, the engine dies. Just before it died, the engine was surging while driving. I’m clueless as to the fix. Anyone got ideas I can check out?
