This is something I'm wondering about, because yeah - my ability to change the iron temperature (if not using the battery) shouldn't depend on iFixit's servers being online. I would at least hope that they document the protoc

Any plans to make a hot tweezer tip for this? It's hard to come by those for a reasonable price and that would be very appealing since I've often found myself needing to desolder surface-mount components. I was initially skeptical

I have been wondering about something similar myself. It seems like each interface on the port boards has a separate internal cable, so even though by default PD is on the left port board and HDMI is on the right it might be possible?

If the previous two models are any indication (I own both) the final aluminum chassis will be very sturdy.

Not that you likely want to hear this as a Vim user, but I believe this is how EXWM works. Windows are displayed inside Emacs buffers, which are pretty decoupled from the windows they happen to be in. (But heck, with evil-mode maybe it&#x27

Yeah, I had a GPD Micro PC prior to this, and I liked it... but the hinge snapped and replacing it seems like a pretty involved process. The build quality of the Pocket Reform feels much better, and it's a lot more straightforward to g

I was inspired by this post on Crowd Supply for what it's worth! https://www.crowdsupply.com/mnt/pocket-reform/updates/on-ope... Bit light on detail, but it got me a decent part of the way there.

I got it fabbed at JLCPCB, though later realized that the stock panel had counterbores on its mounting holes so the screws would be flush. JLC can't do that, so I'm going to see if I can DIY that with the drill press at my local h

I can imagine them being useful in a datacenter, yeah. So far for my own use it's been nice for writing at my nearby coffee shop, because it takes up less space on the table than a full-sized laptop and the small screen seems to help a

I got one of these recently as well, and have similar feelings. MNT's devices are not for everyone; you definitely need to be prepared for some tinkering, and some things are a little bit rough at first. But for a certain kind of perso

Obviously I don't know exactly the type of neighborhood you're envisioning from that description, but what you're describing sounds a lot like the suburb just north of me, and at least here that main road with shops is not a

Yes, cul-de-sacs are a design element that can help to reduce the negative impacts of cars - in the immediate area. Though if you build an area out of cul-de-sacs with no bike/pedestrian shortcuts, you end up not being able to practica

I'm reminded of Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott[0], which is in part about just this sort of thing. Maps were one example presented in the book. And it does apply beyond just that too; I read this blog post a while back relatin

It's easier to audit source code than binaries, and easier to audit it once than once for each architecture.

There's a comment in the Guix source (added by the author of that first post you linked, Ricardo Wurmus) that seems to indicate that they found a way around the segfault problem described in the post by using a registerised version of

I wouldn't say it's relatively unknown, I see it come up just about every time Guix comes up in discussions here. And I'm glad nonguix exists, for what it's worth. But it's helpful to have Guix itself aim for reprod

It doesn't read as tongue-in-cheek to me. NixOS does not have an equivalent to Guix's full-source bootstrap mentioned in the next sentence: https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2023/the-full-source-bootstrap-bui...

I'm still working through chapter 1 and, despite having some previous Scheme experience, let being syntactic sugar for lambdas just blew my mind the other day.
