Sounds like in theory, you should be able to just remove the bluetooth battery unit from behind your ear to completely disable the implants. However, if someone else is in control of your brain, perhaps you wouldn't be able to...

Symbiosis between man and AI sounds both exciting and incredibly frightening. Imagine on one hand the potential for improving our own intelligence, but on the other hand widening the gap between the rich who can afford this kind of augmenta

I'm so happy they haven't removed the composite video out in the headphone jack! If you didn't know, you just need a 3.5 mm TRRS connector - the pinout[0] looks like: T - Left Channel Audio R - Right Channel Audio R - Ground

I have a few Emacs org-mode[0] files in a git repository. I have one for work, one for personal projects, and one for home stuff. Works great for me. I often take notes during meetings. The trick is to maintain eye contact with whoever you&

I keep all my Emacs config files in a git repository, so I can quickly pull it wherever I happen to be using Emacs. Might be practical for some IDEs too depending on their configuration file formats. I'd imagine it would work fine if t

Yeah, far too often people create horrific spaghetti code of if/else statements which could be neatly coded as a state machine. This is a very important concept to grasp.

Same here. If you think there may have been QC issues with your board, reach out to Jesse and Kaia and they will take care of you. Matias keyswitches are fantastic, I've never heard of anyone calling them "non-standard" or &q
