Found a #cursed Lightning to "wired" headphone jack adapter that requires Bluetooth (to avoid paying Apple's MFI tax)

@th I’m surprised this is cheaper than cloning the actual data hookup. All the lightning MFi stuff got cracked ages ago

Andrew Snare

@th Do you happen to recall their price?

We’ve put the Golden Gate Bridge behind our rudder and will be off line for the next month as we cross the Pacific.

Internet comes in via geosynchronous satellite that is directly ahead and can’t pass through the three masts, so we’ve altered course slightly to check email for the first time in a few days.

"Are you a friend of Glenda?" is the covert way to ask if someone is into alternative operating systems.

@th i am an enemy of glenda and a friend to object-capabilities (i don't like how plan 9 sucks the oxygen out of the air for alternative OSes)

@th well, I guess it *was* a covert way to ask if someone is into alternative operating systems, untill *someone* blabbed about it in public. 👀

@th Hahaha! This is just next to my hometown and I have been a graphic designer for a while and somehow I had never made the connection!! Thanks!

@th Hehe. I drove through it this fall and I got annoyed the GPS didn’t make me take the curve to go around it.

@th
I had Rector & Alexys' The 8086 Book (1980), Peter Norton's Inside the IBM PC (1986), and an Intel databook that was as thick as a phone book and printed on what appeared to be thin newsprint and had every 808x peripheral chip they made (8254 timer, 8259 PIC, etc.).

The manual that came with my dads' IBM-PC had the BIOS listing printed in the back.

Did this Linus character live in a cave?

@th The way I solved it was by requesting the 8529 data sheet from my local electronics dealer. They sent it to me in the mail, free of charge.

@th give thanks that the allies had a different opinion when they fighting the germans, btw.

@th why diss on electric bikes though? they're more practical than regular ones for getting around!

(we only have a regular one but we're disabled and life would be SO MUCH EASIER if it were electric.)

@th just learned that on a bike one does only need a quarter of the energy and being at the same time 4 times as fast compared to walking, soo bike should be at the first place (:

@th Interesting, can't say I've had a loose FPGA show up out of nowhere before

Fritz Adalis

@th
Do you live on a boat? You don't see much residential welded steel in the US.

Andrew

@th that's a pretty expensive dust mote
