    For me, if I ever say IEC mains lead I get a blank expression. C13 even more so. "Kettle lead" (Which is notched to indicate it can take a higher temperature and most of cables are…

    With respect, I disagree. Musk is obsessed with the "the best part is no part ". Which only works if you don't actually need it. Combined with an obsession with cost cutting, and y…

    Can someone offer me some help? I've just been messing about "vibe coding" little python apps with local llm, continue and vscode. And I got so far with it. Then I found the free t…

    Coming from android I have to agree, it's terrible. The only help I can offer is that if you press and hold the space bar you can drag to go through to where you need to be, but it…

    That's really good as all the pinouts give all the extras on which can be overwhelming. Being able to just see the PWM capable outputs for instance is much nicer. And they look fan…
