I remember reading an analysis on one of those projectors; the author found a residential proxy running on their device. I would recommend keeping these things off the internet.

Root persistence is more for encouraging you to report all bugs you’ve found instead of holding on to them in fear that the vendor will patch them and make further research difficu…

Notably this bill covers Class 2 and 3 ebikes, not Class 1. The key distinction here is Class 2/3 features a throttle that lets you accelerate without having to pedal. IMO Class 2/…

If you analyze binary files often, I highly recommend binvis - http://binvis.io/ . It creates a colored minimap for files it loads and has two available arrangements. Pixel color i…

Is it necessary to prevent the water from freezing? If the chamber and water within are subzero while the SoC produces sufficient heat, the ice would simply melt. * Edit: the artic…

I applaud his efforts to document this what must’ve been a nightmare of a case for him. But it felt like a lot of the wording is speculative or hyperbolic in nature and aggressivel…

Before I came across this tool, one use case I’d conceived for a tool like this is to help in debugging and reverse engineering. One could hook this up to a microcontroller under t…

Files looks great but it has performance issues and occasional crashes when I tried it out a few months ago. When going into subfolders, there is a very noticeable subsecond lag wh…

I think college student teams strike a combo of time, talent and resource that would be surprisingly hard to come by in the larger “civilian world.” In college, you have a bunch of…

Thank you for Outline, I used to self-host it for a team and it was a breeze compared to Google Docs or confluence. Does it support the use case of publishing the wiki as a public …

With an ESP32 or comparable (RPi Pico W, for example) you get MicroPython or CircuitPython support! That means a Python interpreter, drivers for popular peripherals and usually a n…

The Voyagers’ protocol use no encryption and the specification appears to be public. I’ve linked a PDF of what appears to contain the protocol description below. So anyone with a *…

Third party GPU repair is a big business and many GPU schematics and boardviews somehow find their ways from corporate SVN servers to paid forums and google drive links. They would…

I’d be curious to see the actual design. How much existing aluminum are they replacing with wood? Assuming the wood is purely structural, doesn’t that leave solar panels and intern…
