This is awesome, I absolutely loved that game. Glad to see it still gets love all these years later!

Here are a few more views:

1. 3D render

2. Back side

3. Silkscreen with front and back sides

Yeah I hear that some people like to keep the bus pullups closer to the host. The other gotcha is that the voltage for the I2C doesn’t have to match the VCC pin and I didn’t want to assume that users would want those coupled together. Perhaps I can add some DNP resistors so users can have a choice of a pull-up on the dev board if they like.

Naturally, just like a making a pull request, I found that my annotations were incorrect for the LEDs (it doesn’t functionally change the schematic) after posting. My intent is to have all odd LEDs on U1 and even on U2 so that when I place them in a circle it’s easy to make usable patterns with one controller at a time as I learn how to use animation engines.

This update causes my Jetbrains IDE to randomly crash several times a day, it’s great. Also my USB hubs wouldn’t work this morning until I power cycled everything a few times. What fun!

Hard disagree, fold 4 gang.

I can’t speak for the flip, but the fold 4 is fantastic. I can’t imagine going back to a slab

$80/mo symmetrical gig, no cap, fiber. ATT is shit but they’ve been very reliable with this service, first time I’ve been a happy customer of theirs.

It’s nearly every other post on my lemmy everything feed. Jeeeerez give it a rest.

I can’t say I’m a huge fan of btrfs, in my limited sample size of one I had several episodes of esoteric errors and data loss. It’s anecdotal but filesystems have never been something to give me trouble in any other scenario to date. They just exist and do their job silently in my experience, except for btrfs.

Yep, same here. Premium is worth it for me too. I don’t understand the entitlement on lemmy with YouTube, it’s worse than reddit.

Ruby! It’s a wonderful language with a fantastic community, mature frameworks, and active development on performance and core features.

I knew I wasn’t the only one who noticed this. Absolutely infuriating. I hate self checkout because of shit like this

I don’t think titles directly transfer between companies, and yet the industry allows it. It’s a very useful tool for advancement.

Time on the job does not equate to skill. Some jobs force you to figure shit out that other jobs simply never expose you to. Other jobs expose you to lots of busywork and that isn’t going to make you a better engineer either.

I’ve met senior engineers with 3 years that are significantly more useful than senior engineers with 10 years. Individual motivation and willingness to learn matter the most to me.

I have used the ladder to my advantage and advise others to do the same. It’s a game, you don’t win by not playing.

Neat! Thanks for sharing

You have precisely described my experience with my latest laptop. I get probably 4 hours of battery life in this mode. After that my battery is probably at 20% or less which means that when I open the laptop there’s almost nothing I can do with it.

I had to figure out how to re-enable S3 sleep and now I’m struggling with my stupid Wi-Fi adapter which breaks every time I resume from sleep but all I have to do is toggle it and I’m back to running again. After doing this change my battery life in sleep will actually last at least a day now which is massive compared to what it used to be.

Yep, same for me
