I do some retro work, and in order to debug a system (this was at a time when I knew less about this type of system) I once plugged in a Raspberry Pi Pico into a Z80 socket (not directly of course) and ran commands to read/write from&#

I think that applies to most cables, BTW. Always look in thrift stores first if you can afford to spend some of your time in exchange for reducing ewaste! (In Japan you're guaranteed to find boxes full of old and some new VGA cables at

Hmm, I don't get anything in this thread. What's so bad about Nintendo's or the Sony PlayStation's software? From my perspective they're like... almost perfect, except for the fact that there are updates sometimes,

EU car makers in China usually aren't. They're usually set up as joint ventures, so they're 50% EU and 50% Chinese car makers.

konsole implemented the same protocol; I use their unmodified imgcat script on Linux. It's of course much faster than converting using imagemagick, still added lsix to my bin directory for now. :)

Just the other day I asked my boss if I can reduce my hours a bit, essentially giving me a 4-day workweek, just that even those days have slightly reduced hours (8->7 hours, though the lunch break is 1 hour, so really it's down from

I've always been wondering, could you build connectors like this by CNCing the metal parts and 3d-printing the insulation? (Maybe add in some metal bending, but maybe that could be done manually using hand tools?) In this case, there a

I don't think the standard (C99) uses the term "undefined" in its description of the gets() function. (Also gets has been removed from the standard in C11.) But maybe it uses the term to describe what happens when you change
