Bit of a haul today. A crimping tool for Ethernet cables, a tester to make sure it works before I plug it in, some pendrives (64gb) to install different distros without wiping one over and over, micro SD since I had to flash a camera firmware and of course, the rj45 to crimp into. Already did some cable routing, the tool is solid but it doesn't strip cables that well, I really like that it comes with T568A and B diagrams though, makes it easier to work with. Everything was about 25 bucks in Ali

>Your code is full of undefined behavior because you ignore these subtle details.
If you use a moved object or a dangling reference, the program will crash. It's theoretically UB if you're autistic, but in reality it will always crash, there will be nothing undefined about it. You will investigate the crash dump, and you will fix the issue. After the issue is fixed, it will remain fixed forever. You don't need to invent a new language that fucks you in the ass and slows you down only to prevent some rare types of crashes while introducing other types of crashes. You architect your programs in a way that makes it impossible to leave dangling references or reuse moved objects. It's very easy to do, trillions of lines of C++ code will never have a chance to run into any value category issues.

Microsoft should just hand windows over to a non-profit, goverment or some different non-commercial entity.
They aren't making any money from it, they don't care about copyright infringement either like here lithuanian feds went after some skiddies for being skiddies not for 'illegal activation of windows'.
It's not even an open secret at this point, it's just a common fact everyone is aware of.

It didn't, last I tried it. But I just checked the site and it apparently was just added.

The thing with Logseq is: Why use it when you can just use Obsidian? The only claim it has is that it's open-source and not proprietary (IIRC) but it's so much slower in getting features and competing with Obsidian that you're better off just using Obsidian unless you're a Stallman-type.

Obsidian having files be the basic unit sucks, I would much rather have paragraphs be the basic unit which I think both logseq and notion do

once a channel makes it over 100,000 subs (sometimes even less) they sell out and become corporate shills, bought and paid for.
They all start out making content on something they really enjoy either as a hobby or whatever, then start getting popular and monetize. Then the money starts coming on and their greed takes over to the point they sell out and become untrustworthy.
The psychology of the average viewer is that - the more subs they have the more "right" they are. This is why I watch smaller channels who have nothing to lose and tell you straight up what they think, found, or experienced.

oh man that's comfy. do you mind sharing what some of that stuff is between the CRTs and what they do? Looks like an oscilloscope, a UV meter, and some other things. I really like analog tech
>>
>>107717269
I initially set this stuff up for a music video I still haven't made, a lot of it is test equipment that I normally have elsewhere on my workbench. It's still sitting there for when I want to play games or burn CDs though.

That's not a normal oscilloscope, it's a curve tracer. I mainly use it for matching transistors and diodes for audio circuits, oscillators, filters, etc.
Other than that there is a function generator, multimeter, PSU, frequency counter.

The laparoflator equipment isn't something I have a use for really, it's just medical equipment that came alongside the medical PVM just out of frame on the right.

Right under that PVM is a NTSC waveform monitor and vectorscope. I am using that as part of my setup for calibrating CRTs for my video wall which has been an ongoing project for some time.

Why are these things still made and used? Most phones don't include a slot for them, and they're the only device small (if modern phones can even be called that) enough to justify using them over a full size card. I know the Switch and Steam Deck use them, but those are also big enough that they surely could've made them with full-size cards in mind

Touch controls blow for playing games that are meant for buttons and sticks, and I've yet to find a phone controller that doesn't suck and isn't awkward to hold. Most of them feel like playing on a Mad Catz controller, and either clip awkwardly on the sides of your phone or hold it up so it's topheavy in your hands.

There is zero filling software out there that can do a whole whack load of passes but most of that is a waste of time. Macrorit data wiper free and pro will do the trick. There is something called killdisk too that you can search for online. It does the same thing. Zero fill the entire drive is usually good enough. You can then do a random pass the next time. There is 35 passes but it takes forever... Blah blah blah.

Usually just wiping the entire drive including all partitions will do the trick. Then reformat the drive accordingly. Doing a full check disk to see if any sections of the drive are failing is a good idea to do on used drives also. You may have bought a dud. Better find out now rather than when it fails with all your data on it.
