Fossilized Crinoid pieces - like scattered nuts, gears and bolts. County Donegal, Ireland.
Made some progress on these ZBD epop 55c-RB ESLs this weekend! Ended up soldering jumpers straight to the board for now because my pogo pins were too large. Was able to get some basic text and symbol rendering working thanks to a ton of prior art by @dmitry.gr ❤️
That refresh anim looks so nice!
These bots are SO weird.

Woah! I love the way you achieved a sense of depth with this one.

Also it's 98 degrees outside
It's all fun and games when the family member breaks out the large non-descript wooden board during the yearly gathering.
I'm laughing at the thought of eating enough veggies to get a nicotine buzz
It's not my brain that is wrong for liking nicotine! it's the nicotine that is wrong by being bad for me! 🙃
Waiting for someone to create the nicotine that isn't bad for you
Probably forgot to read the instructions that came with it.
Oh my bad, I didn't look at those parts close enough and got confused. Still looks like e-waste though. Is this for a headset/controller?
I appreciate the charge board sitting right next to the antenna. I don't really know shit about RF isolation but that feels like a bad move.
NEEEOOOOOOO 🫨

Learning how-to and setting up a server is like gaining a super power. Suddenly many technical problems that before seemed costly and difficult can now be challenged through sheer determination, sleepless nights, and reading documentation.
If you wanna try virtualizing without straight unraid you can check out libvirt+qemu. You can get very janky with it! I love it
Bro I've got a box of bad batteries. These guys must be running late.
I never considered that the hardware I make could become the same as the pile of code I wrote X years ago, a confusing undocumented mess. That's a terrifying realization.
Jupyter notebooks are the Excel of python.
I had some loaded baked potato flavored ones the other day. It's incredible how they can make the potatoes taste like potatoes
i reverse-engineered the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5! check it out at github.com/schlae/cm5-r...
It's called tmux for a reason
Finally a use for the Aranet
I can't get the Herkimer Battle Jitney out of my mind.
www.popsci.com/science/arti... Initial reading says yes but it's negligible until you reach a certain scale or poorly plan your turbine layout.
I think physics implies that the energy that was once moving the wind is now moving a turbine and won't be applied to whatever else it would have. I think it's a pretty negligible effect but that energy came from somewhere and had a destination before we captured it.
But this is a tidal generator so I doubt it's even affecting currents in a significant way. Honestly no idea, but I'm a fan of harm reduction so lets get it.
I'm certain there's at least something right? The earth is a system so however small the change is it will affect something in some way. Maybe a reduction in the speed of the currents causing a shift in the global ocean currents?
My initial thought would be noise pollution but deep drilling literally already causes insane amounts of damage and not just from the noise alone either. Sooo yeah, I'll take the clean turbine please.
ZFS! ZFS! ZFS!

Lol I'm sitting on a 110TB array and I'm *not* normal.
100TB+ is not normal.
This is why my laptop boots directly to a TTY. To intimidate any would be thiefs.
I love the case you have for it!
Nahhh the custom cue gets em thinking you're good then you play like ass for a couple of rounds and they'll immediately think you're a poser.
Pouring one out
Or like, crop it.
That's hilarious. Please be a troll though.

Yooo this looks amazing! I love the way you did the chromatic abberation like effect.

It's crazy to me how the walmart deli doesn't take SNAP unless it's cold items. Cold potato salad? OK. Heat lamp potato wedges? NOT OK. The rules are so fucking evil and asinine.
Sweet money hack: buy 4ft rebar from store A, cut it into 2ft rebar and return each piece to store B for profit
NEW! Collectible Plastic.
It's one thing to be against the efforts to shoehorn LLMs and diffusion models into every product under the sun but to be completely against the idea of math as a useful thing? Miss me with that. We won't have any useful discussions around AI as long as the former group of people are uninformed.
I'm certain there are entire generations of adults with back issues due to the heavy textbooks we were required to carry to every class.
Whenever I see an extremely obvious bot account shilling some product I immediately go to their profile and block every single account that follows them.
I tried wearing my backpack the cool way once. It was incredibly heavy and uncomfortable so I've been a nerd ever since.
I need one of these but it has a list of my projects that I never work on.
I feel like that's more akin to playing a buggy game that doesn't work right...? The movie equivalent would be more like a movie that is hard to watch because the media is difficult to digest, so maybe a really scary/gory movie?
Damn that suckssss. I hope you feel better soon! I went to a show a couple of months ago and got sick from it so good on you for not fomo-spreading lol
routine PSA for people who like meshtastic to check out reticulum.network and unsigned.io/rnode in particular, its like meshtastic but with a way better architecture and scaling potential meshtastic is flawed and its talking up all the oxygen in the room from other (often superior) implementations
This seems way cool! I've always felt like meshtastic was put together with tape. I'm gonna flash some of the meshtastic nodes I have collecting dust and check this out. tyyyy!
Holy shit that's cool.

PKGBUILD? What's that??
It honestly feels like an org would better serve their employees by providing a security newsletter that educates on trending techniques and things to look for.
Most people don't have any conception of how difficult it is to accomplish anything because they've taken logistics and society for granted. Baking bread is an example I like. For the flour to be made, shipped to a store, stocked on a shelf, bought by a consumer, and turned into bread...
Kirby air ride was so heckin' good. Glad to know there's another one coming, excited to spend hours in city trial again.
Definitely. That's how they made the occulus rift!
This is how you're supposed to use a breadboard. I read it in a book somewhere.
I love the depiction of a man tenderly guiding a robot arm as if it wouldn't rip him to shreds in an instant if it malfunctioned.
😨
EDIT: Thank you kind stranger 🥰

I read this as orcs at first
Don't worry, the plastic machine and tubes they're using is sure to shed new microplastics into your fresh clean blood.
This problem with junk websites is getting incredibly annoying. Dead Internet staring us in the face.
Here's a #pixelart thingy for #Toxic #pixel_dailies @pixeldailies.bsky.social
Well, I figured out what was causing my system to crash. It's a stupid one, the 7900XT was overheating and shutting down the VM. For whatever reason the default fan curve built into the firmware wasn't ramping the fans like it was supposed to.... Anywayyy, should be fixed now.
Behold! A pill container of various twist ties.
Seeing MEMS devices up close never ceases to amaze me. Truly wild stuff!
Helped a friend rework a batch of boards with broken MEMs microphones. Took some images of the silicon membranes... First two are from broken samples, last two are from intact microphones. Our best guess is the CM used shop air to blow off the boards and destroyed the microphones with over pressure.
little known fact but they later installed a disc trim feature that would detect and deploy cutting blades to dynamically adjust the disc size on boot up.
this DIP chip has a tiny window in it so you can see the quartz crystal inside. (it's a PXO-600 programmable crystal oscillator chip)
Gods, that pillow fucking kills me.
YESSSS THANK YOU! I've have missed this deal for the past 3 years and finally managed to snag it.

Also another fun thought is if we had deatomizing teleportation tech that DID kill do you think there would still be people who would willingly use it? I think a lot of people would.
Dunno! It's fun to think about, the reality is that we don't understand what makes consciousness so we're just playing games with logic and the idea that you could maybe theseus' ship yourself.
Okay try this one: would it be more acceptable if we cryogenically froze you first, pausing all of your bodily functions. Then proceeded with the deatomization, reatomization and then thawing?
I'd like to imagine the physical arrangement of your atoms acts as a tuning fork for your consciousness. If you deatomize and reatomize everything exactly as it was there shouldn't be any reason why your consciousness wouldn't just 'continue' just like waking up from a nap eh?
Well, I am familiar with going to sleep and waking up. Sleeping on a long car-ride feels a lot like teleportation to me.
We only assume that because we don't exactly have the technology to do star-trek levels of de-atomization nor do we have any evidence of what consciousness actually is. It's just as easy to assume that star-trek teleportation IRL would work like waking up from a nice nap.
And the money gets melted into a giant anvil each month to be dropped on the worst/best poster.
Better yet, posting is free but it costs 25 cents to see any single post.
Obviously brain activity isn't actually ceasing but to someone who is unconcious the end result is the same, the perception of concious thought is broken. If the requirement is that your 'brain and data' be intact then there should be no qualms with deatomizing and reatomizing yourself.
I love this thought experiment. Here's a good one: is going to sleep and waking up functionally the same except you don't change locations? (maybe you do if you sleep walk)
A load of fent would actually make a subway sandwich better I think
"Something something robux not processed by our org yadda yadda" I'm sure they have some convenient excuses
Don't be such a slashdot nerd omfg
Laughing at OS discourse knowing that all operating systems are shit. Use what you want to use, oh and learn something new for once.
What a stupid fucking graph.
