ModemManager. You need to set the variable ENV{ID_MM_PORT_IGNORE}=“1” I. A udev rule. Standard usb serial ports show up as ttyACM#, whereas nonstandard ports that require a driver like ftdi show up as ttyUSB#. Modems…
> Rust? Only Rust? Yes, this OS is written in Rust. However, since it has a well-defined ABI, and all services are defined to use `#[repr(C)]`, and the interface is simple primitive enums, it's designed with C-like…
The Rust runtime will, at a minimum, set up the stack pointer, zero out the .bss, and fill in the .data section. You're right in that a heap is optional, but Rust will get very cranky if you don't set up the .data or…
> One-way messages Messages are either one-way (Send or Scalar), or are two-way (BlockingScalar, Lend, or MutableLend). For two-way messages, the calling process inherits the quantum of the sending process, so the only…
It’s normal if you use the Nvidia proprietary driver. Every notification leaks one fd, so if you get a lot of notifications it’ll segfault once or twice per day. This was apparently fixed in version 590 of the driver…
If you run pw-top, you might see errors accumulating. This is usually due to an underrun from the game requesting an audio quantum that’s too low. The fix is: mkdir -p ~/.config/pipewire/pipewire.conf.d && echo…
You can load additional symbols into gdb without restarting it by using `add-symbol-file`, which you can use to iterate on the symbol mapping.
I’m not even on a vpn and I’m getting an error saying the website is blocked.
My current record is $19 (including shipping!) for two assembled boards of https://github.com/xobs/soundoff which is a little device that shuts off 5V power to a USB-A port when it detects the PC it's connected to goes…
I really wish this 3D Gerber viewer worked: https://www.zofzpcb.com/ You can feed it the output from Kicad, and if you include the ipc netlist it’ll even generate models. Great for doing a check before manufacturing,…
I know Altium doesn’t work, which is very important if you need to provide someone else files in Altium format. If you just want to work on designs there’s always Kicad, which is increasingly very good! But it can’t…
I've never gotten passkeys to work on the Mac. Every time I try it with either Firefox or Safari says I need to log into iCloud, which I really don't want.
OVH is awful for this. I’ve given up trying to use their site and always have to open a support ticket any time I want to give them money.
There are usb-c paper tape readers: https://www.e-basteln.de/computing/papertape/overview/ They even work with phones!
That's 600 mA at 3.3V. USB should be fine, but of course you need the capacitance to deal with that. Radio PAs can be power-hungry beasts.
To clarify for the people questioning the price: it’s $74 for the version with free upgrades for one year. The “Lifetime” version with updates forever is $494.

The dongle was an AAUI connector off of a dedicated port. AUI was a standard, but unfortunately it was the same connector as the video connector. So Apple redesigned it.…
"KIKA" just shows an infinitely-looping 10-second clip of a sign swinging that translates to "Unfortunately, you can only watch the current video if you are in Germany."
I remember reading an article that had the theory that Thai restaurants in hotels were usually very authentic under the assumption that the parents were immigrants who wanted the child to inherit the business, but the…
It sounds vaguely like the Invisible Gorilla Experiment: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Invisible_Gorilla
That could be GymLink, which is a simple 5 kHz LF transmission. It’s also used so that it can work while swimming. Here’s a discussion about it: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/rf-microwave/looking-for-a-rec...
I thought Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign were very good at producing https://notarabic.com/ (at least the author calls out Adobe products in the description)
I find myself using debug_here (https://github.com/ethanpailes/debug-here) which does similar things but for desktop-class debugging. It hasn't been updated in a while, but it still works for me on Windows at least.
I never did manage to fly them. Their website just returns " You don't have permission to access "http://www.spirit.com/" on this server." Preventing customers from buying tickets isn't a good way to run a business.
