Popped into spotlight for nerds (Jaycar) today, apparently this is the very last issue of their catalogue they are printing, and they are giving them away for free. Also there’s a big floor stock clearance sale at my local this weekend, with a couple of 3D printers being discounted 50%

Once again I’m calling for Linux network device names to make a minuscule amount of sense.

I have 2 physical USB 4G dongles, that I want to rename to lte0 and lte1. They appear to the OS as identical devices on different USB ports, even though they are different (thanks Huawei for that brain genious move). By identical, I mean they have the same VendorID, same ProductID, and same Ethernet MAC.

I hate this so much.

Well, my RasPi spite project (UPS/battery power supply) is getting close to the manufacturing stage. Pretty sure I’ve got all the components placed and routed, are there any electronics folks who would be willing to review in exchange for a built prototype?

This is Bruce. He sleeps with his tail between his back legs in case someone tries to steal his penis, because his testicles were stolen a couple of years ago.

Oh you want some #suntember pics? How about a current-generation S7-2 server? I definitely wouldn’t want to rework or dead-bug that BGA…

I do not need any new projects… but that new shiny PIC32CZ CA80 (aka SAME70 with PIC32 scribbled on the top in crayon) looks mighty tempting.

Also those new STM32H5 series chips…
