we should run a Community Datasheet Awards thing where we vote for which parts have the best datasheets and then award the part a little trophy

my German mind is desirous of this

@kaia needs "abgelehnt" too, though

@SpaciousCoder78 @signalapp I have pretty much all private communication on Signal

Lack gesoffen?

"Qualcomm-owned quietly pushed a sweeping rewrite of its Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, and the changes mark a clear break from the open-hardware ethos that built the platform."

Oh boy, that was fast! Somehow we need to find more future-proof models for open-source hardware. Letting the market do its thing is showing its true colors once again. Pure evil! 👿

Qualcomm-owned Arduino quietly pushed a sweeping rewrite of its Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, and the changes mark a clear break from the open-hardware ethos that built the platform.
The new documents introduce an irrevocable, perpetual license over anything users upload, broad surveillance-style monitoring of AI features, a clause preventing users from identifying potential patent infringement, years-long retention of usernames even after account deletion, and the integration of all user data (including minors) into Qualcomm’s global data ecosystem. Military weird things and more.

Several sections effectively reshape Arduino from an open community platform into a tightly controlled corporate service with deep data extraction built in. The most striking addition: 

users are now explicitly forbidden from reverse-engineering or even attempting to understand how the platform works unless Arduino gives permission. That’s a profound shift for a brand long embraced by educators, makers, researchers, and open-source advocates.

Nice, @signalapp now has polls.

Guess
Maybe a LCD panel to VGA adapter of some sort?

Heute ist der Tag der Erinnerung an die Opfer von Trans*feindlichkeit.

hmmm, also should host my own Debian repo with rerepro, but too, ENOTIME

Hmm, I should setup a web GUI for the #Debian BTS, but ENOTIME

On Nov 19, 1493—532 years ago today—Columbus “discovered” Borikén (Puerto Rico), a place already thriving with Taíno life and culture. The conquistadors strutted in like gods, peddling Jesus and immortality while terrorizing the people. The Taíno had questions. So they tested the myth on Diego Salcedo—drowned the motherfucker and waited three days. When he turned blue instead of resurrecting, they said “fuck this” and rose up, marking the first Indigenous uprising in the "Americas."

Don’t celebrate the colonists. Celebrate the resistance.

Why is not every carriage in high-speed trains a quiet one? Managed to snatch a place in one today, this is really nice tbh.

did you know that you can find free Cortex M0 development boards at the side of the road? folks call them disposable vapes but they're hackable, and i've reverse engineered a bunch of them! see https://github.com/schlae/VapeRE/
