If you're looking for a bit more flexibility around the current and voltage setting as well as a more solid mounting option and safety features, take a look at fpx board [1]. fpx is open source. Disclosure: I'm the author [1]: ht

Something that's skimmed over in the article but not addressed is: if the key pair isn't used for encryption, then how are session keys protected? The answer is: using the server's public key which is transmitted to client wh

I'm still rocking MATE+Compiz on Arch and it's a pleasure to work with (as much as it was back in 2008). Really appreciate the work of all the devs who keep maintaining both of these to date.
