Underside of a Raspberry Pi CM4 (Compute Module 4), showing its two densely pitched 100-pin board-to-board connectors. A magnet wire (0.1mm wire) is in focus, soldered to one of the pins. The module itself rests on a LiIon pouch cell battery, and all of it rests on a black PCB with a bunch of circuitry, a battery socket, a 2242 M.2 M-key slot, and one of the board-to-board connectors the CM4 mounts into.

raspi-config badly messed up the boot order in this eMMC CM4's EEPROM, and my only "carrier" didn't expose the nRPIBOOT pin for the "recovery over USB" method. magnet wire time

KiCad renders of a small board, top and bottom. The board has a USB-C connector, as well as three JST-SH (QWIIC) footprints, and a bunch of chips on it; the bottom layer is full of silkscreen, with the board name (eeeUSB2 adapter), pinouts, and explanations.

eUSB2 is the first embedded USB2 version I see, that looks promising and actually exists in the wild - on M3 Macs, Galaxy S24, Surface Laptop 7th ed., and so on.

So, I made a small breakout for a USB2-eUSB2 redriver, PTN3222! Tiny, packed with features, and open-source 🥰 github.com/CRImier/MyKi...

awesome!

ThinkMoth update, its working and full speed PCIe 2.0 is training fine!

it stopped working later but details

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

It boggles my mind that the crux of so many company growth stories is
- get more users
- make lots more money
- reduce customer service to an automated chatbot that won't let you have access to a person without reciting the Winter Soldier activation code, which changes daily

Whoa, I knew that many Star Trek stars also played in MacGyver. I never noticed that the set was one of them. 😯

introducing the ThinkMoth ExpressCard to NVME! an open source adapter that lets you use an M.2 2230/2242 NVMe SSD in an ExpressCard laptop, with support for booting via microSD!

prototype production is happening right now!

here's the board(s) i was talking about :3
codenamed tulip for now, we're working on a mod chip for the xbox 360, this is the first prototype devboard. Surprisingly i only fucked up the crystal footprint and nothing else.

The S in IOT stands for Security.

Which model did you get? An odyssey G9?

Oh!

I thought it was about "Murder on the Orient Express." 😬

Bin drin

Kannst du dich einloggen?

Das #IOFF ist wieder online! \o/

Ich bin verwirrt. Eiegtnlciy habe ich jeden Tag geschaut, ob was passiert. Aber diese Nachricht kam erst heute.

"Do [22:00] Import abgeschlossen. Beginn Einrichtung. Fr Einrichtung & Tests"

Knapp 12h für den Datentransfer :ko:

Aber gut zu sehen, dass es Fortschritte gibt. :trippel:

"
Mi [9:30] Start der Arbeiten
Mi [21:00] Datentransfer zu neuem Server abgeschlossen
Mi [21:00] Start Import in neue Software
"

yep, drücken wir ihm die Daumen, dass alles gut läuft.

Woah, what a beautiful idea

A book from an old edition of the encyclopedia britannica which has been converted into a shelf and is supporting Flight anthologies 1-6.

Loved this series. Back in the day I built a floating bookshelf for it.

Oh, and for reference, I got 13 of 28.

I'm surprised at how well I fared compared to the other responses.

My head hurts. Not only because I had to think hard but also because I slapped my head repeatedly after seeing the answers.

In some mid-StarTrekTNG episodes, we see Bodum tea cups on metal trays, which I have not been able to identify yet. Here the trays are seen in "Data's Day"↖️, "Clues"↗️, " The Nth Degree"↙️ and "Unification I"↘️.

this was always annoying, but now that there are no republicans left who even pretend to do it back, it is a level of Charlie Brown / Lucy / football clownery that no one can take anymore
