I’m sure we’re past that now and firmly in the “you’re just gonna have to deal with it” phase.

Thanks. Now I’m gonna start calling AI news summaries “tAIbloids” and make fun of the people who use them. 😆

Mine is also from the “Born to be a Bureaucrat” song but it’s the “born to be all obsessive and snotty. I made my friends and relations fill long applications to get into my tenth birthday party” part.

Exactly. I’ve got so many half-finished ESP-32 projects laying around, but at least they’re mine and work for me.

In VOY S5E07: Infinite Regress, Seven was sedated and Tuvok mind-melded with her to save her from the effects of the Vinculum. The way it was portrayed there, it would be like the mind melder entering the dream of the meld-ee.

🎶I caught crabs in paradise. And, yes, I mean both kinds of crabs.🎶

It was, and I remember that too. Was just being farcical…

They actually did follow up, and the episode was one of the better ones:

Though between “Demon” and “Course Oblivion” that’s a good question. We don’t see Voyager itself getting duplicated, so I guess they spent the time building it out of rocks and then forgetting they were duplicates.

The regular R4 is about $250 right now so I’d guess at least that much. A little pricey and probably over-powered for my use cases, but probably a bargain if you need the horsepower.

• you’re

Update: Yes! Seems to be. Calipers confirm the diameter. TYVM!

Thanks. I’ll grab my calipers and confirm if the measurements are correct. Specs say MHF4 is 1.13mm.

Those letters probably wouldn’t be very helpful, so it’d basically be a $25,000 dick joke lol.

(Or whatever the grand-prize value is these days)

Ooh, I haven’t tried RTL-SDR on it yet, but I think I’m nearing capacity on what it can do at once lol.

Here’s the block diagram for it (in spoiler below). Everything’s up and running except the Bluetooth Receiver -> Snapcast (it works on the bench but I don’t have the scripting/automation done yet). I’m also adding an SMA connector for an external antenna, but the new base part is still printing. Photo shows it “as is” of this writing.

SSL for the web apps was a PITA since I wanted real certs. Had to make a wildcard domain under my main hobby domain, so all my apps are like “https://{APP_NAME}.mobile.mydomain.xyz/”

As soon as I can get the Bluetooth + Pulseaudio scripting done, I’m gonna try to do a write up and maybe a show/tell post.

I would love to have a small Wikipedia browser that can survive the apocalypse.

I’ve got the full 120 GB Wikipedia dump running in Kiwix on a Raspberry Pi Zero. Works great (surprisingly)

E-ink display, mini keyboard

Have been using a Minimal Phone for a few months now which has both of those. Can connect to the Pi easily.

multiple ways/ports to transfer info,

Add a USB-C hub (or add a hub to the Pi) and you’re set

All wrapped up in a heavy duty equipment case that’s able to survive a building collapses and burns in an earthquake, that’s shielded from EMP.

And that’s where I’m limited - My 3D printer can only do so much lol. 😆

I’ve been working on a side project this week with a Orange Pi Zero 2W (Pi Zero “clone” but with better specs). It’s got the Kiwix+Wikipedia like my older Pi (described above) plus a bunch of other neat stuff. It’s kind of a combination travel router, portable web app server, party box, and extremely over-engineered bluetooth speaker all-in-one. Hoping to put together a show-and-tell post about it when I get the last of it squared away.

Obviously they match, but which came first? The attitude or that haircut?
