I had one device who died after a couple of weeks: suddenly it refused to switch on. So I found the real source of pain from Pinephone project: the assistance. I sent a detailed report about the hardware failure and they sent me a message

No he's a friend of mine, I also have my nuclear RNG based on different vintage counter. I think his project is older. I like your project too! This is him: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30252171

I don't think so, this command could be significantly slow: cp myfile.iso /dev/sdb compared with this one: dd if=myfile.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=32M because implementation of cp have a fixed buffer, so i

Ok, but, if I've understood correctly , at the end of article they suggest that the CO2 captured while the battery was in recharging state is released when the same battery is in use. In other words the battery doesn't capture per

I totally agree with Rossmann: the more important thing is that you can lease the equipment from Apple but there is no obligation . The equipment is intended to do a job compliant with Apple standard but, if you don't care to replac

I haven't read the article yet, but, judging the title, IMHO seems just another marketing balloon: under the skin only hot air. The "device absorbs CO2 emissions while it charges" : I don't think that something like that

Having a counter, I think it's easy to found some source around, for example in surplus stores, etc. For example, old naval compass and clock are treated with tritium. You could find also rocks near the rivers with some interesting mat

My device, as other implementation, use the particle passing through the Geiger tube as a "virtual coin" , given a sampling frequency, if one or more particles are detected the firmware returns 1, if no particle is detected, zero.
