Boy am I losing today
-
Trying to help someone with a project who has the same board I do. Fail. My touch panel is registering the wrong resolution for my device and I can't fix it. So no go. And there goes $40 USD down the toilet. Trying to help someone else upload something to an ESP32 from an Apple. Fails at 77% during the serial transfer, every time. I can't fix it. Fail. I'm glad I'm not in charge of anything important today.

I could stand watching the end of the universe at this point.

You and I, both I was working on my project this afternoon. All was well up until about 3:00 p.m. Then, something happened. What happened? I have no idea! I was testing things when everything stopped working out of the blue. No errors. No malfunctions, but just nothing. I removed several plug-ins from Chrome. That did nothing. I updated all of my project's NuGet packages. Again, nothing; no change. I updated MS Visual Studio. Still nothing. I ran a repair on VS, and nothing, again. Complete fail. I have no idea what that was. I have no idea how it could be fixed. I reverted back to a 1:15 p.m. backup copy and it now seems to work. WTF? I won't touch anything for the rest of the day. It's as though every computation system decided to pick today to take a mean s***. :confused:

At this point, it might as well be. Here's link to a supposed solar activity page: https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/en/solar-activity.html[^] I have no idea if that solar activity data is good, or bad. I blame it on the Tetons. That's a good song, BTW. Modest Mouse - Blame It On the Tetons (Official Audio) - YouTube[^] Which also reminds me. It aint nothin' a beer can't fix. That's another good song. Thomas Rhett - Beer Can’t Fix ft. Jon Pardi - YouTube[^] Beer is like duct tape. It can fix anything. :thumbsup:

Some days you're the dog; some days you're the hydrant. I'm having a similar experience. Last October I activated a PV system with 840 kW generation, backed by a battery with 2.145 MWh storage capacity feeding a 20.8 kV microgrid. Thursday night an obscure widget called a "zig-zag transformer" burned up, and the entire site is off. :(( We're back to diesel generation with an annual fuel bill of about $1 million. Lead time for a new transformer? It's 47 weeks, and the manufacturer will not expedite the order at any price. Anybody want to buy a slightly used $5 million PV site? Buyer must pick up.

There actually is not a single spare transformer anywhere on the campus, and I can't get anyone to let me order some. This resort is the cash cow for the entire reservation, and the party's over if one blows. Lead times are running 60 - 120 weeks for replacements.
