Also: if "Reject all" isn't obviously placed, I usually think for a second whether I am curious enough to bother rejecting usages individually or whether I rather don't care. Usually I don't care and leave.

They need to ask because they are planning to use people's data for other purposes. These are the folks wasting people's time with cookie banners.

Edit: that's 12p.m. UTC, I think.

How do they fail to use a roundabout properly? Any problem I can think of is not limited to roundabouts themselves.

The power profiles include a maximum current. If the device exceeds the current draw for the chosen profile, the power supply cuts the power.

The wikipedia article might be more accessible than the spec: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware#USB_Power_Deliver...

These USB-C PD trigger boards [0] are just great for purposes like this. They are cheap and available with either a preset voltage like the author seems to use, or semi-fixed voltage selection (by putting solder-bridges on number of open connections/pads) or - very useful for tinkering - with a set of tiny switches that allow to change the voltage in a few seconds.

I think they are very recommended to have in your parts drawer if you like playing with electronics.

[0] “trigger boards” because they don’t do anything directly with the voltages and power. They only negotiate with the power supply which combination of voltage and maximum current (and therefore power) it should provide.

If you want to get an overview:

That’s actually how I discovered the project.

The intended audience is the author himself.

This is not a cleaning process (in the sense of "removing dirt"). One way to create PCBs is to use a board with a copper surface, put a protective mask on the locations that should have traces or pads and then etch away copper from everwhere (else). In the end, only copper under the protective mask will remain. Etching is faster when the solution is moved around during the process. This machine does exactly that.

It could have been differently in which case people would have complained why we hadn’t been more cautious. This might be a shallow dismissal but hindsight is 20/20.

From the paper: „[…] two powerful techniques are essential for MEMOIR: first, a set of genomic elements termed ‘barcoded scratchpad’, whose sequences can be specifically targeted and deleted by Cas9-gRNA, are integrated into the genome of cells. Therefore, for a single cell, its progeny inherit the alterations of the barcoded scratchpads, and all the daughter cells can be traced permanently.“

I‘d wager it‘s cost.

That‘s a microcontroller, like I suggested.

According to photos on the web, the display module has 3x LC7940 and 1x LC7942 on the backside.

If you want to convert the display, a Raspbeery Pi SBC is most likely absolute overkill. A microcontroller will do for sure and will be a fraction of the cost.

As I understand it, you just want to be able to control the device. Maybe keep the display as is, intercept the signals and forward them (wirelessly) to an external device for display?

I also stumbled upon cases in which the backlight was the issue but OP wrote that "the screen while illuminated is entirely blank".

What would be a solution to carrying lifeforms elsewhere in the ballast tanks? Turning the water over regularily to reduce the distances that these creatures can travel aboard?

Maybe reading the transcripts of the podcasts would serve your purpose?

It‘s not my own website but someone else’s curated collection of websites that have in common that they are refreshingly non-bland.

Phyphox allows you to measure and conduct experiments with a phone. That includes things like a sonar to estimate distances from the echo of a ping/frequency sweep that the app plays over the speaker, or measuring the magnetic field, acceleration or rotation of the phone. It can also display a spectrum (FFT) of many measured time series or a waterfall display to visualize changes in the spectrum.

Phyphox is amazing: there is a wide variety of different experiments available using all sorts of sensors found in phones. The iPhone accelerometer seems to saturate at roughly 13g, easily achievable by pulling your phone very fast in an increasingly narrow arc towards yourself. What were you thinking how I found out?

(Fun fact: this is another project that Sebastian Staacks of http://there.oughta.be worked(s?) on. You might remember his wooden Gameboy shell, the Gameboy interceptor to screenshare the Gameboy screen to a PC or his bullettime video booth.)

> A circular coil of wire with N turns and a diameter D will generate a magnetic field of B = u0.I/D (u0 is defined to be 4.π.10^-7);

That u0 is meant to symbolize μ_0 (mu zero, with zero being subscript) the vacuum magnetic permeability [0], in case you were wondering where that magic constant came from.

It might be cheaper to get a power supply that supports later PD standards? E.g. IKEA is selling some cheap here for either 8€ (Sjöss, 1 USB-C port (max. 30W, up to 3A)) or 15€ (Sjöss, 2 USB-C port (combined power output of 45W, up to 3A, also on a single port)). Both support PD 3.0 and PPS (that's the fanciest PD standard that implements requesting arbitrary voltages from the power supply) They also stock nice and cheap USB-C cables. These power supplies work fine with USB-PD trigger boards set to 12V.

The „Ölfleckversuch“ („oil stain experiment“) is very similar in setup but you use a drop of oil instead of detergent. Its volume and the covered area on the water surface are used to estimate molecular sizes:
