Ambiguous headline. Is he dead or not?

I got back into hobby electronics after life getting in my way for 20ish years. And wow things are a lot more available and out of the box than before.

Lately I’ve been getting into I²C peripherals. They’re pretty cheap too. Wanna build an X that does Y? Adafruit probably has some breakout board for you that does what you need. Hook it up to your platform of choice (Raspberry pi, arduino, etc etc) via four wires (well, 2… I just run power from a raspberry pi as well) and you’re good to go.

Optional: Combine it with a 3D printer to make chassis and mounting platforms.

I now have a raspberry pi that knows its absolute orientation, altitude, and position. I’m currently working on PWM input for receiving inputs from an RC radio I happened to have. After that it’s PWM output to control servos. I might build it into a semi autonomous RC plane/drone or similar. We’ll see where this project takes me.

Model trains, stamps, and books.

Unless your name was Henry Cavendish - Then you’d be making amazing scientific breakthroughs and not tell anyone, only to get credit posthumously after someone reads your lab notes.

He conversed little, always dressed in an old-fashioned suit, and developed no known deep personal attachments outside his family. Cavendish was taciturn and solitary and regarded by many as eccentric. He communicated with his female servants only by notes. By one account, Cavendish had a back staircase added to his house to avoid encountering his housekeeper, because he was especially shy of women.

GPUs were originally created to render giraffes faster, hence the name. The fact that they’re also useful for gaming are as coincidental as their usefulness for crypto mining and LLMs.

A gif is just the output format after running loads of OpenGiraffeLib code through a GPU.

I have a literal suitcase full if 4TB SAS drives. Because they were free and pretty much unused.

Fun fact: A pelicase of 37 3.5" drives is the max weight you’re allowed in a single checked piece with common airlines. I had to give three drives to the check in clerk.

I’d say sure, go for it. As long as it can be thought of as a stupid question and/or with a simple answer outside of this board. If not, consider AskLemmy.

I didn’t coin it and its use is fairly widespread, so go ahead.

Function over form every day all day. Fuck others.
I’ve been a jeans and T-shirt guy for well over 30 years at this point.

Can’t remember the name, but there was a Finn in charge if Nokia who ended up running that into the ground through a series of bad decisions to the point where MS could buy Nokia for cheap. And he ended up in a leading position (might even be that he was CEO, I don’t remember) around the time when MS really accelerated their enshitification focus.

Two negatives cancel each other out, so I think you should answer the question anyway.

I’m banned from all three of the tankie triad
