When I had this issue, it was fixed by disabling and removing the speech-dispatcher. Something to do with text to speech (I never use it but is sure to be a pain if you do need it) automatically doing things that corrupt the audio stream gl

It does seem that way, however, in none of the AdaBoxes I've gotten from them have I had to sign up for their cloud services. That's where you think they would push it hard, but it just hasn't happened and I'm glad for t

Neat. I'd love to see what that looks like (raytracer or cradle). Found an old Hack a Day from 2014 ( https://hackaday.com/2014/11/25/ray-tracing-on-an-arduino/ ) where someone is raytracing on a 16Mh

Adafruit offers a starter kit with a microcontroller, 64x32 led matrix, and some other doodads for ~$70 ( https://www.adafruit.com/product/4812 ). It's really easy to tinker with. I made a clock that does some crapp

Neat, there is a whole section on dungeon generation in there too!

My favorite from that collection on map generation is by Herbert Wolverson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlLIOgWYVpI He goes over 5 or 6 different techniques that are easy to implement.

This may interest you; might not be what you were asking for. I haven't built one, but keep an eye on it and dream of free time to surface mount solder and poke around with it. The repo used to have a cost estimate and think it came ou

Freeze the video at 1:47 and you'll see K352 4SDYU from STMicroelectronics. Dug a little and came up with M24SR16-YDW6T/2 which can be found in DigiKey here: https://www.digikey.com/products/en?keywords=M24SR1

Sobering to think of the true (hardware only) price of that postcard in full view of anyone handling it: $36k ($450 * 81). But amazing to think how far technology has advanced.

Reading again, it does look like the installation is limited in some way if you choose to use public keys and your user doesn't have the privileges (without sudo) necessary for some of Cockpit's commands it tries to run. Note tha

You are right, I missed the one liner above this that stated it needed one of these methods: [password, kerberos, or public key]. However, it does sound like if you use the docker image that you need password logins on the primary machine u

Why does it require that the server has password logins enabled? This seems contrary to every "secure your server" guide I've seen and opens your server up to the password guessing game. It seems like a cool product, but that

Just wanted to say a big thank you for this site. I used it when trying to figure out how to hook up an RFID reader to the Pi. It was suprisingly hard to find the pinout, but finally found your site. This is what I put together: https:

What you've said can and does work for telling time, but from watching a few of their videos it looks like the watch part of this device is a secondary function. It connects to your phone and will display the caller's name or text

As an additional data point, a former client (female) addressed our mixed-gender team as gals. This is something the article explicitly calls out as taboo. It didn't bother me (male) at all nor did it seem to alienate anyone on the tea

You use a breakout board to get the connector you need to hook it up to your computer. So for the 5v mini you would get something like this: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9716 You then either solder on some headers

You'll want an Arduino that has headers and a usb connector already soldered on and the usb cable to fit it. That's really the bare minimum. From the article, this one looks like it would fit: https://www.sparkfun.com&#

It's Java ;P I haven't used C++ in a long time. But you are correct a reference does exactly what he wants. For anyone who needs to look it up like me: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_(C%2B%2B)

I'd certainly prefer to be able to reason about the code with the safe assumption that certain things cannot be null. You can do this, but if you want it to be maintainable, you'll also want to detail in the function comments this technic

From the help button in the top right, it looks like you can rotate and flip the components. (To GP)It definitely wasn't the easiest to find, maybe have a tutorial video showing how you are doing some of the things like rotating and moving

I received an email a while back from them basically saying they were going to start taking privileges with my data if I didn't go to a page and opt-out. I don't remember the text, but that was the gist. [Edit] Did some digging and the emai

If an assumption can be made that you won't put null values into the map then it can be rewritten where it doesn't need to do the check described above: value = map.get(key); if (null == value) { // Handle no value in the map }

It doesn't detect crazy; maybe it scores higher in one of the other corners of the cube.
