Almost all cheap opamps on aliexpress are LM358 or similar supercheap bipolar design, no matter what's marked on the package.

Yeah, aliexpress returns real money.

How about switching lights in quick succession, enough to cause real-world issue, but avoiding the direct conflict?

Company makes HW that can potentially harm people, if someone logs in to it remotely and turns all lights green at once. It's possible to find the vulnerability in 15 minutes of getting remote access to the device without any prior kno

For consumer stuff like this, you'll obviously get something else. But sometimes you can get recycled components if the price obviously is not sane, where recycling is an option. It's only fraud if the description mentions new and

You don't need to ship them back. Aliexpress will fully refund fakes, if you send something resembling proof. I got refunds for even obscure stuff like opamps, transistors, etc., with just a quick video of a oscilloscope output. Someti

Invasion of Ukraine started under Obama in 2014. Not that I care from the outside who the head of the US military industrial complex is while things happen, but let's be a bit more precise. Funny how people can't even accept a sim

There's also a perspective of a sender, and if you return "250 Ok/Queued" from your server, you didn't block anything, regardless of what you do with the email afterwards.

Also pretty useless with mainline because it's not straightforward to get embedded ethernet phy working, even after doing pretty much what BSP code does to power it up. Access to it times out. (That is if you want to run some code that

I have a kernel here https://megous.com/git/linux/log/?h=luckfox-6.10 Bootloader will be at https://xnux.eu/log/ when I get to releasing it.

Yes, it's nice. Good for making Linux based USB devices (based on gadget subsystem). It can run Arch Linux ARM if you enable swap on uSD card, and don't overdo it with your RSS. Systemd doesn't really support 64MiB RAM out of

Why did you make me read all this just to tell me that working at 5 failed companies results in not having a financially sound situation, while working at successful ones does? Whaayyyy?

All of computing is data entry. Data in -> algorithm -> data out. It's dead since the beginning.

That's not blocking, then. You're just accepting the email and not doing anything with it. It's usually called "blackholing". It's less nice to the senders for obvious reasons.

Nobody will spam you except your service provider. My mail server will just return error to your service provider when it tries to send email to it over SMTP.

ACK is required for TCP to work, reply is not for email.

This is cute, but not how email communication works. There's no need for explicit answer to any email, otherwise people would never stop responding.

Depends on what you're optimizing for, how big of a problem not knowing whether someone read your email is to you specifically, and for what kinds of emails/senders this happens.

by megous 2y ago
No. When you block an email the sender will get a notification email from their mail server that their message was blocked. They will not assume anything for very long.

Not really a representative popoulation.

The reaction email doesn't have some specific header that can be used to block it?

You can also somtimes plug the old nokia phone to USB and start making calls, reading/deleting SMS and many more over standard AT commands. Also very convenient.

If the news starts with "criminals stole..." and not with "poor security practices at XYZ resulted in..." then there's really no hope.

Very happy with my own router with my own software (just regular Arch Linux ARM). :) The thing that guards access to and from my internal networks really deserves to not be so turdish. I'd hate to pay $350 for such a betrayal. Some thi

> but bsp sdk don't support V4L2 .... use something like MPP API Well that sucks then. I hoped it's in similar state like Rockchip, where the required things already work over V4L2 API (in both BSP and upstream). But that just

It doesn't have to be a module if you're building the kernel for yourself. No violation in that.

by megous 2y ago
It's easy (2-3 commands), takes like a minute on a modern machine with trimmed down kernel configuration, and you can customize the kernel to your liking (write/patch drivers, embed firmware blobs, fix things that are broken or mi

Shouldn't be hard to make opensource one. CSI capture under Linux is fairly simple with v4l2 API, SG2002 SoC has HW accelerated JPEG codec, and that's exposed as mem2mem v4l2 API too, usually. USB HID gadget emulation is fairly ea

Problem with these small displays is that lot of them are pretty bad. It's possible to find good cheap (~$8-10) IPS panels with parallel 24-bit interface with wide viewing angles and good contrast, but these common cheap SPI ones are n
