Former Oculus Go users:

First time?

DAK catalogs were wild. Each item had a magazine article length description that was clearly bullshit. But by the end you’re certain that the constant emptiness you feel is from not owning the World’s Best 16 Channel Stereo Graphic Equalizer.

I have an HL-2270DW and the toner low light comes on well before prints start washing out. Fortunately the toner life is tracked by a plastic gear on the cartridge, and it takes just a minute to roll it back. When it does run out, good third party replacements are under $20.

Other than niche Keysight gear that’s has three layers of nameplates because it’s '90s vintage NOS, LXI and USB-TMC have replaced GPIB.

He’s daydreaming about going all Gordon Ramsay on the LKML after the photo shoot.

During CPU startup Transmeta’s Dyson “It” style campaign leading to their first product launch, they widely publicized that Linus was on staff.

Ironically you chose a picture of Linus holding a laptop containing the only product he’s famous for shilling.

Like that time Keurig used a very special shade of orange on the lid of their pods as DRM?

Applying power by itself doesn’t keep SSDs from degrading like DRAM though. It’s up to the manufacturer to design scrubbing into the controller to correct errors on infrequently accessed data before it’s too far gone.

You don’t need the original source to program a flashlight. If it’s ATTiny based then Anduril has your back.

Plasma 6 and Wayland are working great under Tumbleweed for me on my 2-in-1 laptop, but there’s still no usable virtual keyboard package like Maliit in Factory.

Nope.

UPDI used on Atmel micros on Anduril capable flashlights uses a single line for debug and flashing. Much earlier than that, Motorola/Freescale/NXP Coldfire, S12, and some other MCUs used BDM which was also a single wire protocol.

If you want to flash a newer Anduril to this light, look here for hardware and procedures to use those pads.

If you’re piping any of those commands to or from awk, you can also go.

Most of that cost is modem I’m sure. The ESP32, RP2040, and all the support hardware around both add under $5 to the BOM.

There are a bunch of boards with a combo of RP2040 and ESP32, probably because the RP2040 has the PIO accelerators and the ESP32 is much more rigid with I/O. If anything, I’d ditch the ESP32 on this board if your application doesn’t need WiFi or Bluetooth.

Edit: I didn’t realize the ESP32 is the -C3. It’s no slouch, but your code shares the single risc-v core with the radio stack. So it’s better off here as a dedicated radio processor and letting the RP2040 run your application if you need more grunt than polling a sensor every so often.

I mean, if I had the disposable income I’d get a Flipper Zero to mess around with, but it’s not on my list of things I need for my hardware hacking go-bag.

What’s the need you’re trying to fill?

If you want to get into RF, and not just for hacking a few specific protocols, an RTL-SDR is a better choice and much, much cheaper than a Flipper Zero. For $40 on Amazon you can get an RTL-SDR.com kit complete with antennas that will let you capture data from smart meters, aircraft beacons, police radio, and even detect individual cars driving nearby by capturing serial numbers from their TPMS sensors.

Next week: Fedora meets a new friend named Lennart while on her way to Multiuser Mountain. Will they be able to cross the init bridge without being caught by Sammy the Systemd Hating Troll?
