Ukraine, in operation spiderweb, has already launched drones from containers deep within Russia to damage "... one third of Russia's strategic cruise missile carriers, estimated to be worth $US7 billion ..."

Not to mention the endless stream of marketing emails you'll get forever after.


I don't get those, so I guess you can unsub


Similarly, Ben Travers didn't have a delay pedal, so learned to pick the delayed parts on Pink Floyd's "Run like hell" when he was younger, since taken to ludicrous speed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CY0_HG8J5M


Ben Travers playing is mental!! Thx for the track. Needed it today.

That's fantastic! Pros find a way.


The TI99/4a version of the Logo language which has turtle graphics used user defined characters to implement them. There were only (I think) 128 user definable characters, and when the turtle graphics had redefined all of them to create its output, it gave the user a message, "out of ink".


Interesting... RP2040 seems like maybe a bit overkill for a zero power badge. I've participated in writing some software for an RP2040 powered badge for the RVASEC conference in Richmond, VA, for several years, and the RP2040 is really nice to program for, and is quite powerful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5ZrHAXCFLA


Yeah the RP2040 is a bit overkill, but it's really cheap to get from JLC, easy to prototype FAST and easy if anyone wants to reference the design and create/program their own badges.

I have been looking at some other MCU's like the CH32 for future projects, so if you also have any suggestions for other ones, I'd love to hear them!


PRs can contain multiple commits. You need something like stgit to make it easy to make a bunch of small commits that appear to be the work of an omniscient genius who knew exactly what they were doing. Try using stgit for awhile, and you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.


On the "reset"/"stty sane" trick, I also sometimes have found it necessary to press Ctrl-J rather than RETURN at the end of the command.


Something like those switches might be made very cheaply with a 3D printer, possibly a laser cutter, some transparent or semitransparent acrylic sheet, tactile switches and some LEDs. I designed a cheapo replacement for $50 tellite switches and got the price down to about $0.60 Not quite the same, as these are a lot bigger, and getting things down to the desired size might be troublesome. Anyway, here's a little video of my fake cheapo tellite switches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaenrgPVCjc


Control, Alt, Delete.


Can't you just read from /proc/pid/fd/0 ?


This was my first thought as well. I assume somehow I'm the dummy that doesn't understand the question.


OpenBSD does not have a /proc file system.
