Yes, I’m more of a novice, but have already tried multiple pattern systems as well. An expensive digital one with loads of measurements superficially similar to this. Also Luterloh system with radial coordinates, but that just sizes you from one measurement.

Luterloh gave me an oddly sloped buttseam. I always have to lengthen sleeves, the custom sized does do that for me, but I also still had to adjust other stuff. Different from a commercial pattern but do still have to do some adjusting.

As for the printing, it’s the same as every other digital pattern. You either tape a whole bunch of A4 or Letter sized paper, or print in A1 or A0 roll. Freesewing is actually good at this, you can rearrange the pieces to fit whatever paper you will print on before saving as pdf.

It’s going to have some metadata to that effect yes, like a file index or number of parts or total extracted file size. I don’t know the details, I’ve used them I haven’t read the spec. rar is Rarlab’s proprietary format so there might not even be a public spec.
They’re normally all the same size except for the last part, so it’s not that file 1 is just an index.

Yes, it asks for the next part if it’s not in the same folder with the same name, doesn’t really make a difference what it’s stored on. Multipart zip and tar also exist.

Multipart archives still exist. They’re now used for file sharing websites that have a maximum file size. Before that they were for unreliable p2p networks, so you didn’t lose the parts you’d already downloaded when your peer goes offline. Originally it was to fit something big on multiple cd-roms or floppies.

Opening somthing.rar also reads the data in somthing.r01 through somthing.r15 etc

For fast easy machine single-serve, get a machine that takes beans. They cost about three pod-machines but they’re worth it. The pod-machines are cheaper because they come with vendor lock-in for the pods, and they just profit more on those instead.

Yes, suspended weights, also spinning flywheels, hot salt, hot sand
There’s options besides pumped hydro, hydrogen and batteries

Perhaps I should read Ursula’s bag theory myself, because I’m not quite following how it applies to Solarpunk or talking about climate from this.

I like everything I’ve read of Le Guin. Just finished reading her last one, Lavinia (Pre-Roman historical myth based on the Aeneid). The Dispossessed is great and you get a feel for an anarchist society. She also wrote a good translation of the Tao te Ching.

It’d be a lot easier to work with more conventional hardware.

First of all you downloaded the wrong version, your device is not amd64 but arm64. OSMC for Vero provides an img, so you can install an OS like you would on a raspberry pi. Though you’d probably have to make your own image since afaik it’s not really an rpi?

You can probably run hass in docker or install hass core instead.

Raid5 of three disks and keep the fourth as cold spare. That’s 16TB instead of 24, but you’re barely using your current 8, so a spare makes more sense.
