Oh holy shit you’re right! Badlands Booker! Total legend. I actually met him at an eating contest way back. Seemed like a really cool guy.

Yup. Colorado requires a front plate, for example.

I do use python quite a bit for scripting and backend, app, and I’ve used MicroPython a little bit, preferring C, C++ for embedded. It’s pretty great for what I need.

I might mess around with Rust out of curiosity anyway, though the downsides you mention make it less compelling for me, personally. I’m not a big fan of verbose languages (e.g., Java, though I have used it for some apps).

Can someone help me identify this potentiometer from a third party Xbox controller? (lemmy.one)

Trying to repair a Hyperkin Duke Xbox controller where the left trigger doesn’t respond. Found that the resistance of this potentiometer doesn’t change when it’s moved, so I’m looking to replace it. I’m a novice with this stuff though and I’m having trouble identifying it. Any help is appreciated.

How many pins does it have in the circuit board?

Someone said it might be an encoder but I see “103” on it which is used on potentiometers to indicate 10k ohm (10 x 10^3)

You and me both, old timer. Looking forward to Atari night…

My teen says “yes” through her expression of mirth, disgust, and dismay.

Sorry my DECwriter jammed up on that last bit after “absolute”, could you repeat?

Literally orphan crushing machine story here. Fuck.

I stuck with Mint for about a decade but switched to Nobara for gfx drivers. Now that Mint is on a newer kernel I’m seriously thinking of going back because my current distro is just not as stable as Mint was. And I like Cinnamon better than Gnome. I miss my Mint.

I am pouring one out to this little champ. Stripping HDCP and letting me... archive streaming services from 2016-2023 RIP (lemmy.world)

What killed it, well after reviewing some PS4 gameplay I noticed that it was having audio issues, like it would allow some sounds but not all. It was almost as if it was receiving a 5.1 audio output but was missing the centre channel. Even though the PS4 was set to stereo....

True, there are caps but no electrolytic caps.

My money is on a cold solder joint or two on a couple of the IC pins but that’s just a wild guess.

Cold but we get so much reading done out here.

I need to look into foraging. I am sure there are tons of things even in landlocked Colo. I was surprised to find weeds in my yard that are an ancient grain, for example.

Yes. The crispy bits get caramelized. It’s amazing.

I also have found the discussions more mature, usually, even in some cases where the other person is to my right or left on the political spectrum (I am in the progressive / social democrat range). Of course there are always some that post in bad faith but it seems like the ratio of those to others is lower here, thankfully.
