OpenOCD is a massive godsend for any kind of board bringup/embedded development. While I can't speak for your board specifically, if the pin assignment is software reconfigurable (and is reset to sd-card access on reboot!) and you

Yeah embedded debugging is an absolute PITA, even with OpenOCD + JTAG exposing a remote gdb server to the target it's just always been so fragile in my experience. Like reloading a changed executable causing gdb to segfault sometimes,

I'm using zionist as an accurate description of the viewpoint the propaganda advances, no value judgement attached or implied, but you do you. I know I won't change your mind (or your victim complex) over the internet, but for wha

Defending themselves from a genocide in Europe by ethnically cleansing Palestinians? You have a curious way of defining defense.

The "Arab leaders told the Palestinians to flee" line is an old and tired piece of zionist propaganda, mostly used to "justify" the double standard of barring Palestinians whose grandparents were expelled (by claiming th

Ignoring the whataboutism about Iran (I brought up middle eastern governments as an example of the effects of deplatforming when it's organized by people with different biases to you, not to imply some kind of ridiculous tit for tat).

GrapheneOS supports installing Play services as a sandboxed unprivileged app [1] where you can revoke its network permissions and manually restore them if needed. I should know, it's what I do :). If I could avoid using google software

Of course deplatforming works. The point is that it only works in your favour when you're privileged enough that the establishment at large agrees with your views on who the heretics are and what should be done to said heretics. As a t

The phones stay away as much as possible when my friends and I meet in person, just as a matter of courtesy. Nothing's recorded (as far as we know).

BSS is the section of your program's address space where all the un/zero-initialized memory lives, so just a global std::array<u64, 1024> foo{}; would be placed in BSS by the compiler. BSS is also usually not included in

That's the kicker, it's lighter weight, but the "omni-heat" insulation* keeps me just as warm as a heavier down jacket, if not warmer. I even managed to work up a bit of a sweat while outdoors at 3am this past Feburary i

Not -30C, but something similar to this[1] jacket on top of a shirt and warm undershirt have kept me reasonably warm in -20C canadian winters. The best way to stay warm is to have a windproof outer layer, then layer up (light layers!) under

That's not a trait of crypto in general, just bitcoin (and ETH, and most other non privacy-focused coins). Take a look at Monero or ZCash to see how untraceable the trucker convoy (or similar) donations would have been if they had just

I think with FPGAs in general you'd have trouble getting to RPi4 frequencies (700MHz stock, with boosts on top of that), and I doubt you'd have enough resources (LUTs etc...) to implement all the features you'd find in a full

Doesn't seem to be a big issue for Arabic, where verbs are gendered (so in the sentence "I am going to the store", the verb "to go" will be either masculine or feminine, reflecting the speaker's gender).
