tfw the datasheet still has old German orthography

Just (hopefully) uploaded a #Debian package using tag2upload. It generates a signed git tag that then is magically processed by the archive software. Quite nice IMO, as it saves me one step for uploading. Thanks to spwhitton and @Diziet for driving this!

@wanderinghermit I have done that with my laptop SSD quite a few times, *should* just work those days. That being said, some hardware might not be supported because of firmware and/ or kernel issues. Since I have wired ethernet and a ryzen CPU / amd GPU in both systems it just worked™, YMMV. If you have a nvidia GPU in the desktop PC you'd need to install the nvidia drivers before switching, for instance.

@navi I skipped the first sentence and though that was an IRL perpetuum mobile

Submitted my talk to the #Easterhegg CfP

hm, a wayland version of xbiff with the layer-shell protocol would be a fun project

Just ordered USB-PD trigger ICs, also finally set up my mail alias.

fuck you mouser.com for blocking me when browsing with Librewolf

@jaseg ah, ch244 seems to do it :) thanks

@jaseg ah, I see. do you happen to know an example PD trigger IC? can't seem to find one, but rather a ton of boards which is not what I want.

@anarchiv o.o you should write an autobiography at some point

Hm, if i want 12 V from USB-C, I need some kind of PD-IC regulator, right? Like a tps25814 ?
I want to supply a circuit with just "dumb" 12 V, no extra USB-C features needed.

#electronics

Blasting Peer Gynt while writing a kernel driver

@mirabilos @SpaciousCoder78 well IIRC that one is on hold in Debian wrt updates

Here I go cloning the kernel again

Watched a deep dive on Germanys debt brake and now my deep anger at the system got even more intense.
