Next, read all the fan zines from the 70s.

Bro, her interview on sgctc is legit. They talk about peeing on pillows. Also good for her. Was already a fan for life.

You have no idea of the quagmire you've wandered into. Chad-zak is a funny meme leave it at that. Don't Google it. Don't delve any further. There are things worse than balrogs down there.

Dead leaves?!

Lol, when I cut a hole in the wall I always make it the exact shape of a raspberry pi

Uhh, because of the heat of the raspberry pi & camera behind there

I think I saw gwar once birth a Hillary Clinton fetus, and then kill and eat it

Roy Cohn https://en.m.wikiquote.org/wiki/Angels_in_America and there's more context to the quotes, generally the context is realpolitik, power for power's sake. A real asshole you wouldn't want to play Diplomacy with. Someone with no ethics but winning. The subject of a run the jewels song. ~~Family~~ Famously Donnie T's never admit you lost coach. The message is alluring if taken at face value, and seems like wisdom, but if you get taken advantage of was it really you who was weak?

Impedance, floating (lemmy.world)

What's the difference between impedance and when a pin on a microchip is floating?

I get the basics of impedance. I'm capacitive impedance it's a build up of charge. Like air in a balloon. In resistive impedance it's a build up of the magnetic field, like a flywheel.

A floating pin isn't connected to anything reference voltage so it can fluctuate with surrounding interference or whatever.

Why do some ICs have tri state, low, high, and high impedance? Isn't high impedance the same thing as floating?

If it is high impedance that means it had to be connected to something, right? ~~Don't~~ Some kind of big capacitor or inductor in the chip?

 

Saw a "deer hearse" sticker the other day. So nice these guys have an outlet to express themselves. Like Lisa Frank stickers.

Poofy tshirt sleeves are the worst. Is there a name for how the sleeves are cut? When my arms are at my sides I want the hem of the sleeves to be touching my arms, not shooting out at 45 degrees. Same for any short sleeve type shirt.

 

License stuff came up the other day. Got me wondering.

Could I use something like the mit or GPL license, but add a requirement that anyone that uses the software had to send me a pic of their butthole?

What is the use case for this GPL + bhole license?

Memes mostly. It world also need to have an age of majority clause.

Then if the library actually gets picked up somewhere it would be a good extortion tactic.

 

Messing around with Linux for the first time in a bbb.

I've learned things like ls -1al, those types of basics.

I'm getting the picture that Debian for the bbb is kind of bare bones, no pun intended. Is that right?

I'm interested in some bigger picture basics like that. Any suggestions for resources?

 

With Google podcast dying I'm looking for a replacement.

I'd like to unchain myself from the corpos if I can too. So I'm not interested in another pod catcher that'll just try to monetize me.

Are there are self hosted rss readers with push? That seems like a great solution for pods and just about anything else I might want to keep up with.

 

I don't want a dark and twisted batman that watches Catwoman change through her window.

I want a bat credit card and ice puns.

The whole plot is that robin is scared of getting bracers. The joker taunts him with those fake chittering walking teeth.

 

Working on a joystick. Seems like any protocol I use to read from peripherals is going to be bottlenecked by having just one input. My microcontroller might have multiple ADCs, but there's just one processor stepping through them. Same for spi, or i2c, or uart. There's really only ever one sensor reporting back its data at a time.

I know this might not matter for measurement resolution. Especially if you're polling at like 115k serial or something, but...

That's 8 bits per axis, and three axis. Now that's at least 34 bits. To sample each axis we're down to only 4.5k samples per second. Plus whatever other cycles the controller has to handle... even if I spent half that time doing microcontrolle cycles at like 2k we're probably still well with the best star craft apms or whatever. I'd still like to find some way to really over engineer this thing.

I read a little about tdm, but that's out of my league and I don't know if you could even have 3 simultaneously signals that way

I'm thinking a microcontroller for each axis, and a usb port for each of them. So it appears like 3 different controllers to the computer. The user would just have to map the axis from the 3 controllers into 1 in their game software. I assume the steam remapping could do this.

Is it just going to get smashed back into one thread in the computer's usb hub anyway?

Any other suggestions?
