I have the same on Android with my phonaks - not websites though, but both taking a photo and paying using Samsung pay appear to open an audio stream briefly, just long enough to jump into Bluetooth mode. It takes ~6 seconds to go back afte

Rockets also have active control via gimballing motors. Bicopters tilt their motors to control pitch and yaw, roll is still governed by motor speed. I was arguing against the COG of the payload, not of the existence of bicopters entirely.

Sorry, I wasn't arguing against bicopters being possible, obviously something like the osprey exists. > the air resistance of swinging back and fourth really does help dampen oscillations passively But they don't swing back and

> Two is possible if the payload hangs below the props I think this is incorrect, it's the somewhat unintuitive rocket pendulum fallacy.

Love the energy with "i decided to just go for it.". The soldering to the touchpad is absolutely frightful, but you know what? First time soldering (to small testpoints no less), it works, it can always be fixed later if the joint

Whoah, that is super impressive. My target binary is 9MiB, seemingly only 10k relocations IIRC but 37k functions. I might try a partial delink and see how it goes!

Easily one of the coolest RE projects out there, I've always looked on in awe. > The relocation table synthesizer analyzer relies on a fully populated Ghidra database (with correctly declared symbols, data types and references) in o

My partial solution is to look a bit silly and shove the utensil in my mouth while I walk around setting up the meal (finding a seat, opening the package etc). Wetting the eating surface with your saliva for ~30-60 seconds helps a lot.

I think the parent commenter is perhaps a little over-selling the LG rooting. It is definitely root, you can write whatever you want on the filesystem (at your peril), and theoretically do whatever you want, but the homebrew exploit launc

As per the name, it's Din Don Dan [1], from Konami's DDR (and included in other rhythm games by them). This is specifically the performance from DanEvo [2]. This particular version became popular from a guy absolutely killing it d

Human interfaces, sure, but there's a good chunk of industrial sensing IoT that might do some non-trivial edge processing to decide if firing up the radio is even worth it. I can see this being useful there. Potentially also in smart w

It's funny, more than any productivity app (though I do have a few of those), the Directory Opus [1] Explorer replacement is one of the things that I've yet to find a viable replacement for on both Linux and macOS. Unparalleled cu

This is what happens when you run your blog behind cloudflare workers - they want you on pages instead, or to pay $5/month forever on the off chance you get slashdotted...

Glad to hear that egui is working for you, but in my experience it's not accessible, difficult to render accurate text (including emoji and colours), very frustrating to extend inbuilt widgets, and quite verbose. One of my most recent

What's your recommendation? I've tried so many multiplatform toolkits (including GTK, Qt, wxWidgets, Iced, egui, imgui, and investigated slint and sciter) and nothing has come close to the speed of dev and small final app size of

I always saw the "-sys" suffix as "raw, unsafe bindings", not pulling it from the system. And non-sys is your safe Rust abstraction.
