remember: When a cat meows, chirps, trills, or mrrps, it is important to reply in-kind.

Mmm, I like well organized schematics, they're hard to actually make, but sometimes you're happy with the result.
Time for walkies then I suppose...

I don't know what it is, but when I hear people say "I had such a feeling of accomplishment" I just, I dunno I can't relate?
Like I know what it /means/ but I don't really think I've ever felt it....
weh,

Also, big shout out to the Python Software Foundation for not bending the knee to the fascists.
More projects could learn a thing or two from that, fascists, Nazis, et. al. have no place in FOSS, get the fuck outta here, you're not welcome, go away.

How you know you found the good shit:tm:

100% going to need a source for that Linux sticker on the lid :3

It's a shame @npub1fh7…ee83 doesn't have a merch store, and if they did they really should lean in on the "GitHub for Lesbians" thing they did for april first.
I would 100% buy that sticker, or shirt.

Question for my EE friends,
Any good recommendations for really fast, level-shifting IO buffers?
The requirements are:
* Must be able to Tri-state one half
* Each "bit" should be able to have it's direction set independently
* Ideally 5-8ns transition time
* up to 12VDC on at least one port with 3v3/2v5/1v8 on the other
Or is this something i'm going to need to try to build out of discrete components

I unironically love it when FSMs are laid out like arcane sigils,
This is a smaller one, but the DDR state machine is peak vibes

The fact that "ChatGPT Is Down" is being passed off as "breaking news" by news orgs is so fucking depressing,
I didn't notice, nor do I care, fuck off with that shit and stop having my phone send push notifications about it, go away.
I'm so tired of all this LLM/genAI garbage, it's so depressing.

2025-05-20 09:34:25 UTC

Oh, EE friends, anyone have a good recommendation for grabbies?
Ideally decent quality, and small enough for some finer pitched TQFP not just SOICs, but also that don't break the bank.
I need like, a billion of them, I always lose them.

Forget about USB-C, we need to go back to these kind of connectors for things

If you say "keep politics out of tech/software" i'm just going to assume you're a horrible person because no-one says that honestly with good and well meaning intentions,
Fuck off with that shit.

Just a heads up that newer devices have updated firmware which causes the HID fixups to fail to apply.
I've got a PR that *should* fix it for devices with newer firmware (works on mine at least, lol) https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/udev-hid-bpf/-/merge_requests/164
No idea when/if it'll be merged upstream, so might be worth tossing a mention in the article about the problem.

My flip-flops are *very well* synchronized, thank you very much 😤
