As I ranted against the '90s and "how hard it was back then to have access to information", my wife came over the workbench, looked at the HDD, and then calmly informed me the J50 was the pins on the left. Hein, mais comment tu sais ca? Then she flipped the HDD to show me the PCB pins were labeled!
Mr. Sanglard is a lucky man :-)
I had my new Win11 PC preinstalled by the vendor and then immediately ran Win11Debloat on it. It's been quite painless that way; not many nuisances except a few OneDrive popups to extinguish and the typical forced reboots after updates.
Have you tried SMPlayer? It's a lot like MPC
I bet you're getting plenty of downvotes from the Yanks.
Do elaborate on that first paragraph though please, I'm bursting with curiosity about what makes you see it that way.
"The technique works by subverting standard social etiquette. The normal rules dictate that we take turns. I talk about myself, then you talk about yourself, etc. Active listening changes that. You are listening, they are talking. We do not take turns.
You need to work hard to maintain these unusual rules. Your partner will try to give you a turn"
This unwritten rule is not understood by many. There are plenty of people out there that are completely happy to drain you of your energy by talking endlessly about themselves. What I try to do in those situations is to assert my speaking time and if that doesn't change their attitude, it's bye bye, fuck off, go drain someone else.
I've had an awful experience with Duplicati. Unstable, incomplete, hell to install natively on Linux. This was 5 years ago and development in Duplicati seemed slow back then. Not sure how the situation is now.
Why does it have to be -- ever "googled" something? ;-)
Does it include those from comments? Great videos to be found there, too.
And when they do, it always has to be something like "No, thanks". Always with the forced gratitude. Never a good old "No, FUCK OFF" to accommodate me.
What is MS's end game here? The development cost savings seem not worth it. The only plausible reason I can think of is collision with PC manufacturers to boost sales.
Just read KF's post about Hector and while it is frivolous (a lot of "who cares" moments), it is also founded with plenty of evidence. Simple freedom of speech, not hate speech.
Also, I would never have read it if it wasn't for this thread. :-)
The point the author is trying to make is that those are indeed not the right traits to judge an engineer by.
It's very true. Having been a heavy user for 4 years in my late teens, I do notice that my memory isn't what it used to be. I'm having to write things down all the time, including people's names and stats.
Done.
coreboot's "flashrom" doesn't support SPI NAND flashes, neither exists a suitable applet for the Glasgow, and I didn't want to buy an expensive XGecu >>>T56<<< (my TL866II doesn't support them either).
Would the T48 not be sufficient?
Unfortunately it is not clear exactly what flash chip is used. Only thing the T48 doesn't support is OneNAND according to https://www.bulcomp-eng.com/datasheet/XGecu%20T56,%20T48,%20...
Can you elaborate a bit about the socioeconomic conditions?
What is that circular kit with the stands and pins that he's using here? https://dontvacuum.me/rocketflashrecovery/needles-1.jpg
Reminds me of PCBite
Exactly this. All that work, for reverse-engineering a handful of laptops made by a company whose only desire is to lock its users into its ecosystem and ergonomics. Even more demotivating is that the M1 and the M2 are already superseded.
Similarly, I completely do not understand the popularity of Apple's laptops in this community. Endemic mindless fanboyism.
So what are these 'whites' supposed to do in your opinion, quit denying their wealth and just go live in a nice suburb, big house, big car? You propose no solution, it's only bitterness.
What are their reasons for not allowing it?
Sounds stupid on many levels to forbid it.
Having trouble not attributing to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity here...
For Home Assistant for instance, the only reasonable option is .internal - its default .local is not the right TLD to use. [1]
Telegram's and discord's "news" style channel features have always seemed to attract the wrong kind of usage.
The only ones I've seen are for porn distribution and crypto banter. What do you refer to when saying 'the wrong kind'?
I'm not an expert by any definition of the term, but a book on programming for the Raspberry Pi Pico with Micropython recommends the MCP3008 ADC.
I disagree. I as an adult with zero prior experience with electronics have recently completed the book "Make: Electronics", which contains such experiments, and I got a sense of amazement very much resembling one that a(n) (intellectually curious) child would have. A 555, a couple of trimpots and a speaker can be loads of fun!
Thank you, I must have read over it.
That is shocking. Unfortunately the article doesn't clearly describe the chain of events. The patient was declared brain dead but later showed signs of life. Did the doctors resign because they suspected foul play - i.e. someone knew the patient was not brain dead but greenlit it anyway - or did they simply quit due to the trauma?
It's a shame the GitHub repository got attacked by the kind of sexually frustrated perpetually-teenage crowd you normally see on 4chan.
On the other hand, Radionomy's clear incompetence over the years sours me. Having the IP for all those years and laying it to waste, culminating in a half-assed attempt to open source it. It pains me to say as their intentions may be good at least in part, but one has to let Darwin get his way too.
Surprisingly painless, in my experience. Vite is good.
