I've decided to start a project to help neighbors of existing data centers and proposed data centers to monitor noise using <$300 field units. I haven't built it yet, but I have done two other monitor projects with success, so I do not anticipate this will be any different... just a different set of variables and sensors. Here's a page introducing the HDC Sound Monitor Project. (Just this page for now.) https://salemdata.net/HDC/HDC_Sound_Monitor.html #DataCenters #DIY #Noise...

Migrated from Windows to Linux leaving a Brother P-Touch label printer behind? Your printer may still be useful and work in Linux despite no mfg Linux support. My decade-old Brother PT-2700 working on Gentoo Linux with both the command-line ptouch-print utility and the graphical ptouch-rs [Rust] application. I also built ptouch-rs successfully on a Raspberry Pi 4 running Raspberry Pi OS "Trixie.". https://salemdata.net/johnpress/?p=1094 #Linux #Brother #PTouch #LabelPrinter #Gentoo...
