There’s a list of projects at the end of this article: https://paperstack.com/adb_usb_converter/ The ADB-USB Wombat is a pretty decent solution if you prefer to buy something already made.

Is PIO fast enough to capture HDMI? I'd like an HDMI freeze button device, providing the same function as many video projectors but inline with an HDMI data stream.

Are you looking for a product, or one to build yourself? If you want a product, why not just get a USB-Bluetooth adaptor? It would support HID as well as A2DP (music) and other Bluetooth protocols. If you want to build something, I'd r

I use an Apple keyboard on my work PC, but would rather use Command-C and Command-V instead of Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V. This remapper should be able to remap the Command/Windows key to Ctrl.

Anrdoid and iOS don't support USB HID natively. The iPod does with Rockbox, but I'm probably the only person still carrying one around. The best solution I've found for pocket-sized USB HID is an EspUSB Tiny: https:/&#x

On my personal laptop (Mac), I used AU Lab to apply effects to the music I listened to, and discovered that I like the ambience provided by adding a little reverb. I'm interested in doing the same at work, but the office PCs run Window

If anyone wants a PicoDVI sock or 4, I had 5 PCBs manufactured and am only using one. I wanted to put the HDMI connector onto the PCB itself, so I could avoid soldering the very small pin pitch. So I took some measurements and did my first

I've got a PNY XLR8 CS3140 8TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD with an M.2 adaptor in my MacBook Pro 2014, and it works well. I also have an external one for backup purposes, and it works well in a Thunderbolt enclosure but has been a little unr

I use this USB sniffer on a daily basis! At work, we're somewhat limited in what we can install on the office PCs. Therefore I listen to music on an iPod, rather than streaming. To control the music on the iPod, I have a USB sniffer th

I told my dad about the Voyager fix, and he said that back in the days of punched cards, latency of 2 days was quite normal! He was still impressed at the high stakes of the repair though, with no option to go over and turn it off and on ag

My dad had one of these at his desk at CERN, and would challenge visitors to his office to explain the motion. I have one at my desk now, and unfortunately it doesn't move. I wish I sat closer to a window.

I wrote https://pingtype.github.io to split sentences into their words, and translate each word to pinyin and English. That might be easier if you're trying to read a longer section of text.

Thanks, but wikipedia_en_all_nopic_2023-12.zim is still 56 GB, whereas the BZ2-compressed Wiki2Touch archives are only about 14 GB for the latest (and only 8 GB for an archive from 2012 which I'm using).

And for older phones, Wiki2Touch is a jailbreak app that does the same without images in about 14 GB. I'm writing a Wiki2Touch archive viewer for more modern iOS, because my iPhone SE doesn't have 100 GB free for Kiwix.

Will Facebook continue to support mbasic for messaging? This is one of the things I fear will be dropped when end-to-end security is added.

The 14GB is from 2021-03-01. It's not filtered, it just stores the wikitext and an index of the article names, compressed with BZ2. The XML, which is larger, is now 21 GB. How did you get 60GB for the non-image English file? https:&#x

I think Kiwix includes images.

Kiwix is good, but the file size of offline Wikipedia is bloated compared to Wiki2Touch. Kiwix is over 100 GB for the English Wikipedia. https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/kiwix/zim/wikipedia/ wikipedia_e
