Blobcat plushie, blahaj will protect it forever 💖💖

ALL THIS TIME, I THOUGHT I WAS DEPRESSED. IT TURNS OUT, I JUST NEEDED A HIGH-STATUS JOB AND HUMONGOUS AMOUNTS OF MONEY.

#37C3 / Chaos Communication Congress will also have another instalment of Blåmba! ( https://blamba.de/ ), if you missed it at Camp!

Search for your old Nokia phones and bring them! SIM cards will be available.

If you have creative ideas for artwork, feel free to send them over at https://github.com/blamba-de/blamba-content-ingest

Finally finished the DIY mini networking rack that I've been working on for the past ~4 months.

It's almost entirely made out of 3D printed parts, with the exception of the vertical rack rails and the side/top-panels.

For the vertical rails I used actual rack rails made out of steel, the side panels are laser cut polypropylene with metal mesh glued to the back.

The heavier devices (router and optiplex) are sitting on diy'ed rails made out of angled alu bars to prevent them from sagging down.

やっぱりドット絵が好き

Added some extra little details, spikes on the knees and lfrith style bunny antenna on the head, in an eye catching red #gunpla #mobilesuitgundam

family got a new samsung tv with a "remote" that has almost no buttons because you're meant to use a phone app instead. phone app is 80mb and tells me my browser (firefox nightly) is unsupported to log into the samsung account to control this tv that's already in our living room. hey @internetofshit

YOUR 2023 CALENDAR WRAPPED

You spent 31 DAYS in each of the months of August, March, July, January, October, and May. That’s a six way tie. Guess you’re the type who can’t be satisfied by just one month! 😎

Your longest day was NOVEMBER 5, a whopping 25 hours. Falling back like a champ! 🍂

This year was the 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF 2013. Here’s to another 10 more! 🥳

You’ve had 51 MONDAYS so far this year. Yikes! We won’t tell Garfield if you won’t. 🐈

@alice ah yes

ISO C committee, a failed standard effort:

• dysfunctional, couldn't standardise a simple improvement if their lives depended on it
• arcane, incomprehensible specs that nobody reads
• all volunteers. literally nobody involved gets paid
• they have the gall to paywall it??

Khronos (Vulkan, OpenGL) and MIDI specs:

• long track record of pragmatism
• written by big companies that have hardware to ship and no patience for bullshit
• down-to-earth, sometimes refreshingly casual, easy-to-understand specs
• everyone involved has a real job
• free :)

@JennyFluff for all the catgirls :3

oh hey, it's doing that analog-buttons trick!
See, There's only 3 wires for eight buttons: voltage, ground, and "key".

Each button has a resistor inline, and the microcontroller on the other end measures the resistance of the keypad, and can figure out which key is pressed based on that.
