I have to fill out a wish list for some silly family gift exchange but it just makes me feel so impotent. I need nothing. I want no physical objects. All I want for Christmas is for the people I love to be well and happy. And they don’t fucking sell that at Argos 😡

I loved my late wife very much, but she was on at least the first rung of the hoarder ladder. No matter how well intentioned, whenever somebody brings me a new thing I have to put somewhere, it prompts a panic response.

I do not want more things. I actively want fewer things; I'm still struggling to clear the house.

If people must buy me something, make it something I can eat. Otherwise, just give me a nice card. Please. I beg you.

Утром было нечего делать и пока сёрфил инет наткнулся на упоминание NextCloud. Возникла мысль поставить его на малинку, чтобы фоточки с мобилки синкать. Открыл мануал по установке, а там ... apache ... mysql ... php .... Закрыл сразу ноут и пошёл гулять. Ну его нафиг #nextcloud #IT

A small, light-colored dog is being held in someone's lap. The dog is mostly white with some light beige coloring, and has a fluffy coat. A dark blue collar is visible around the dog’s neck. The dog is curled up, and appears to be resting. The person holding the dog is wearing dark-colored pants, and a gray fuzzy slipper is partially visible in the background.

One lesson Democrats should take away from Zohran Mamdani’s campaign is that they should be as unapologetic about policies that help people as Republicans are about those that harm people (e.g ICE, no gun control, cutting healthcare subsidies, government layoffs, research funding cuts, etc).

As children dream of sugar plums and toy trains, just beyond Earth's orbit and field of view, an enormous intergalactic armada that is poised to invade earth on Christmas Morning, so as the world wakes up to Santa's gifts, these advanced travelers of the stars will lay waste to earth and her people, for not a thing can be done, for we are mere ants on a cosmic scale, and our end will be for our folly of greed;

IBM już ciśnie następną bańkę – jak łatwo się domyślić, komputery kwantowe:

Banieczka ej aj już zaczyna pękać, więc trzeba cisnąć kolejną magiczną technologię, której nikt nie rozumie, ale brzmi fajnie, więc można inwestorów (i rządy) naciągnąć! 🤡

in reply to Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦

IBM nie ciśnień żadnej bańki. Nie powiesz chyba że firma farmaceutyczna ciśnie bańkę leków na raka czy inną podagrę. Firmy robią to, co robią. Jedna kiełbasę, inna komputery. Bańkę cisną wszelkiej maści fani łatwych, szybkich i dużych pieniędzy. I oczywiście bankierzy inwestycyjni, potem dołącza ulica, pojawiają się hohsztaplerzy itd. Z ciekawości sprawdziłem jak to wygląda. I pięknie widać, że hype zaczął się jesienią 2024. Nawet nie będę sprawdzał czy te firmy cokolwiek zarabiają🤣
in reply to Adriano🌍

@core15 jest różnica między promowaniem konkretnego produktu na konkretnym rynku, bo produkt jest przydatny w konkretny sposób w konkretnym kontekście, a wciskaniu bajery typu "QUANTUM ZMIENI WSZYSTKO!!1!"

W tym tekście nie ma żadnego konkretu. Zero. Nie ma też informacji o żadnym produkcie. Czysta bajera.

Więc w tym wypadku, w kontekście tego konkretnego tekstu, IBM ciśnie banieczkę.



Today I tried facebook-scraper as I would like to download posts posted on Facebook by notable people I respect. But I am a rookie and I am lazy as I haven't been able to make it works: it keeps saying that the cookie file has some encoding errors. Yet I notice that other people have similar issues. I'll try again after some time

On the increasing prevalence of #DarkMode in software:

I find “dark mode” themes really unpleasant to use, especially when reading or editing text. I greatly prefer (high contrast) dark foreground/light background.

For context:

- I have pretty much perfect, uncorrected vision
- I use very high quality monitors

Surely I can't be unique? Why has everything started to use “dark mode” by default over the last few years?

in reply to Peter Brett

this is where some kind of global user preference setting becomes important, so that programs can default to the global user preference

Taking Electronics to a Different Level


A circuit diagram in a book on a desk with computers and microcontrollers

One part wants 3.3V logic. Another wants 5V. What do you do? Over on the [Playduino] YouTube channel, there’s a recent video running us through a not-so-recent concern: various approaches to level-shifting.

In the video, the specific voltage domains of 3.3 volts and 5 volts are given, but you can apply the same principles to other voltage domains, such as 1.8 volts, 2.5 volts, or nearly any two levels. Various approaches are discussed depending on whether you are interfacing 5 V to 3.3 V or 3.3 V to 5 V.

The first way to convert 5 V into 3.3 V is to use a voltage divider, made from two resistors. This is a balancing act: if the resistors are too small, the circuit wastes power; if they are too large, they inhibit fast signals.

The second approach to converting 5 V into 3.3 V is to use a bare resistor of at least 10K. This is a controversial approach, but it may work in your situation. The trick is to rely on the voltage drop across the series resistor to either drop enough voltage or limit the current flowing through input protection diodes, which will clamp the voltage but also burn out with too much current flow.

The third approach to converting 5 V into 3.3 V is to use chips from the 74AHC series or 74LVC series, such as inverting or non-inverting buffers. These chips can do the level shifting for you.

The easiest approach for going in the other direction is to simply connect them directly and hope you get lucky! Needless to say, this approach is fraught with peril.

The second approach for converting 3.3 V into 5 V is to make your own inverting or non-inverting buffer using, in this case, an N-channel Enhancement-mode MOSFET. Use one MOSFET for an inverting buffer and two MOSFETs for a non-inverting buffer. Just make sure you pick N-MOSFETs with 3.3 V or 5 V gate drive voltage VGS. Alternatively, you can use a buffer from the 74HCT series.

The video provides a myriad of approaches to level shifting, but you still have to decide. Do you have a favorite approach that wasn’t listed? Have you had good or bad luck with any of the approaches? Let us know in the comments!
