The chord names not matching the keys on my keyboard are throwing me off a lot on this, but that's difficult to get anything other than major chords. Maybe it would be playable by using modifiers to shift to minor and 7th etc.
Another idea I had was being able to bend by holding two keys like monophonic synths.
Bokeh doesn't have different blur for different circles, it's always projecting the exact shape of the aperture.
Oh I really enjoy it when I get random emails from people that have read my posts and have occasionally mailed maintainers of software projects that it is working perfectly for me. It's always a nice change of pace from bug reports.
Oh that looks incredibly similar, thanks for the tip!
Author here, the best solution I think would be just ripping the temperature sensor from the battery pack and soldering it to the contact in the microphone instead, then you can just pop in regular rechargable batteries and it'll work. No need to add lipos to this.
I'm glad most of my music gear isn't battery powered. I do have a painful amount of different camera chargers though...
Linux from scratch is quite a lot of fun, did it a decade ago and learned how to bootstrap a linux system after installing Archlinux got boring. Never went past the initial "get a working" system stage though.
Now I'm building LFS/BLFS again but hacked the Alpine package manager into it to actually be able to install multiple machines with this and crossed the point where I'm daily driving it on my laptop
Ah you've never encountered /dev/null not existing yet, so when you try to trash data it will actually create a normal file there so every other program that uses it will actually append that file.
Luckily it's usually a tmpfs
This does happen, but it seems to depend on the ISP. In the Netherlands I've seen ISPs block the internet connectivity when they've detected infected devices, sometimes they send a letter before blocking and some ISPs seem to dump your internet connection in a captive portal. In all these cases it's been enough to call the ISP after finding the problem and you're connected again minutes later.
I'll have you know my grandma was using Linux just fine... was certainly a lot easier than windows changing random UI elements every time.
I always bring my telephoto lens. Since moving to a full frame camera I'm using a 70-300 most of the time and I rarely want a wider lens, more often I wish I brought my 600mm instead.
I also brought a 85mm prime which has been a lot of fun, while at the same time I've been lugging around a 35mm prime and barely used it.
You don't use them normally in the US, I've been referring to europe/amsterdam or europe/paris all my life in Linux installers and various equipment. I've never ever encountered netherlands/amsterdam or something like that.
Magic lantern is amazing. I'm still hoping a project grows for the other camera brands since I only have Nikon and Panasonic cameras.
Both cores are actually ARM cores, but you can switch both cores to be RISC-V cores as well on boot.
Allocating a subnet is way further away from reality for most people than configuring one router feature on the router they're using.
There's also a lot of people that configure these devices (or linux routers) themselves but have never heard of VRFs, you got to learn about them somewhere so I just hope this helps some people :)
Hah I also have a smartphone prototype here powered by a single 18650 and I've already seen one of them turn into a smoke machine because the holder has protruding pins and doesn't fit most protected cells...
Two 18650s also sounds like it would be heavy for a badge
That's a lot of software setup for something that can easily be done in hardware. I've been over engineering things for years now.
For my mic I have also an sm57 feeding into a dbx286 hardware mic preamp and dynamics. Then feeding that into my audio interface for calls that also gives me a knob to mix in my mic into my headphone signal. This all gives me zero latency monitoring off all the gates and compression. Then for the output signal I have a seperate audio interface I use with all the web calling applications that sends the audio of all other people in the call to o another compressor that levels out their volumes. Then that is sent through a tc electronic multiband compressor unit to fix the really dull mics some people have. This is then mixed with the stereo output of all other applications on my audio interface again.
This way I have consistent audio no matter what OS I'm booted into at that moment.
Maybe the CVE is being ignored because it's not such a big issue at all? It's already possible to cause a train to brake and make a disruption by pulling any of the emergency breaks inside it.
It would be great if you could just order them. Mine are also falling apart... I've replaced them with FOSDEM shirts now
I nat IPv6 on one of my servers because having seperate ipv6 for VMS but the same IPv4 has caused some issues with running mail servers and certificates. If only I could drop IPv4 completely
Afaik that's not related to this, that was already possible as a domain alias. I think that feature is called a delegation if I remember correctly.
Oh wow I did not expect to make it into the top 500 :D
It's only barely there at 480 but still.. that reminds me it's been too long since I've written a post.
Doesn't really work if crawlers are coming from the IP ranges of AWS and Azure etc...
What annoys me is that the AF-P could probably be supported on a lot more cameras, they did add it to the D3300 with a firmware update. They just didn't do it for more cameras...
All my nikon cameras focus with a semi transparent mirror on a specialized autofocus sensor. I even have an nikon film camera that has that cicuitry. You can't autofocus like mirrorless cameras with PDAF pixels in the main sensor with a mirror in the way.
Yeah the in-body motor thing is only for the older Nikon lenses, I don't think AF for that is still supported if you're using Z-mount adapters. Nikon seems to have a few similar AF motor technologies like the canon ones in this article.
I've always wanted to know how the various autofocus systems worked. This page is incredible. I wish there was another one with the Nikon autofocus systems since that's what I actually have.
I still have several lenses with autofocus that don't have an AF motor in it at all, the motor is in the camera body instead there's a tiny screw on the lens mount that transfers the motor rotation to the autofocus parts in the lense. This was very slow and noisy though on my cameras.

from the fosdem.org dept.
I'm pretty sure that's exactly what happened
