Does anyone know what kind of anti-counterfeiting techniques he used?

That second paper is absolutely amazing, I’ve always heard this story and never bothered to find the source. The section with oscilloscope traces showing the progression of the “designs” over time was extremely interesting - I’d love to see

Some of my least favourite nights and most cherished childhood memories involve troubleshooting broken or missing network drivers the only functional Linux box I had working. Never had to use a flip phone, but sure came close a few times. N

Continuing to do things only because they’re funny as an adult is one of life’s little treats!

I was thinking about that while reading; in some ways I think this reality is on a worse track than Little Brother's. In the book, schools were using gait analysis because of privacy concerns about facial recognition. In reality, facia

It's a fun idea too!

Not related directly to the article, but I’m so glad there’s a “tell me mistakes I made to fix” box. I wish more sites, hell even news sites had that.

Pretty misleading, to be honest. As the parent comment to yours said, the ROA + dose schedule + AUC + peak plasma concentration differ so vastly that "its the same compounds" almost doesn't matter. The differences between str

You mean the surveillance angle as reason for it being in Virginia?

Ahhhh fingerspitzengefühl, I forgot about that one. Thank you for reminding me, I need to start using it more. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fingerspitzengef%C3%BChl

Assuming you've read https://andymasley.substack.com/p/a-cheat-sheet-for-conversa... or the longer full essay/related works, could you elaborate on why you don't use Apple Intelligence? I totally underst

…Do you have a link? I’m not sure if I want to see proof of that, but I’m at the same time curious how you’d manage to do it without disturbing the cat.

Definitely agreed on the lack of consistency between orders and even between boards in the same order. I’m doing very low volume for myself and not giving anyone else the banks, so I’m more than happy to check over all the boards for visual

Well, there’s only one real part (the cells are interchangeable, and reclaimed) https://a.aliexpress.com/_mKNNnGZ I’ve gone with the purple C and U model.

Absolutely, I’ve browsed that sub a bunch but frankly I trust the opinions here more. I’m using matched reclaimed cells that I’ve tested to make sure they’re still healthy.

Braving potentially getting spit roasted to ask: If I'm making my own 18650 USB C power banks, are there any easy to miss risks? I've got the cells in holders, not welded, but the holders are specc'd above the current I need.

I mean, they’re rarely heard by people , but they’re certainly heard by everything else trying to live near the highway that as you said, cuts across the entire country. Now, not to say you don’t make a good point, but noise pollution is

I despise the labeling around "Natural" and "Artificial" Colours|Flavours|etc. It's downright misleading to call one highly processed compound natural, while calling another equally processed compound artificial. I

I wonder if the requirement to rotate the target is inherent, or if it could be optimized away eventually?

For a long time I've been trying to make a DIY milligram-accurate scale, and milligram-accurate strain load cells are expensive. Does anyone know if the resolution of this is high enough?

What were the details of paying $2000?

by knotimpressed 1y ago
Depends on what you’ll use it for, but the DS212 has been a lovely low spec and cheap scope for me. There may be better options now, mine’s pretty old.

That looks fairly similar to what the Kobo Touch still uses today! Pretty cool.

Does anyone have any details on what kind of filter this was? I bought a relatively high-MERV filter for my home, but I’m wondering what I should actually be trying to filter out.

Surely it wasn’t a crystal radio you were building, since they have no power source? For any powered circuit though, a few AAs can dump a surprising amount of current and heat into naive fingers.

I always wondered how blind people navigate situations like this on public transit-how did you know another bus was coming?
