I was visiting London for only a day while on a trip around Europe, and made sure to visit Schneiders Keller while I was there. Tom (who brought us the open source Turing Machine eurorack module) came in to drop off a demo unit, and I got the first play on it.
It’s a lot of modular packed into a small package. Loads of fun. Also quite rugged and portable (built into a nice case, and can be powered by a battery bank).
Firmware is swappable, and can be completely customized.
> The microcontroller in Computer is an RP2040, the same as a Raspberry Pi Pico. The program cards are the entire flash memory for the Computer, so there is no firmware on the device itself. They can be programmed in C/C++ (Pico SDK), Arduino Pico, Circuit Python or anything else that works on RP2040. Program cards can be re-programmed or updated over USB with a simple drag-and-drop process. You’re welcome to sell or give away any code you create, and can make your own custom cards if you want.
Comments about “private property” show a lack of cultural awareness. Such a shame.
He has shown time and again that the underlying philosophy is “free speech for me, but not for thee”…
…or more specifically “don’t tell me (and people who agree with me) what we can or can’t say”, while actively censoring opposition.
He does this without believing he is abandoning a “free speech absolutist” stance.
Blind hypocrisy? Unrestrained privilege? Both? Something else? Not sure.
Not a shiny piece where a shiny piece usually resides on some kinds of frames. Not a single LED that can be covered.
As for Apple, the camera can be an optional upgrade, but not everyone will actually need one. Apple can already do object tracking with sensors alone. It’s not far fetched to expect a more developed sensor-only experience from future Apple products.
Meta is a terrible company, but smart glasses are a game changer for blind/low vision folks.
Both can be true at the same time.
I have a feeling that Apple will have a better product in the end, one that is more privacy conscious. They can use a front facing indicator, or even keep it to sensors, while avoiding a camera completely.
Each model has a unique set of strengths and weaknesses, and collaboration allows for the strengths to be pooled, while the weaknesses are hedged against with more broad perspectives.
I pay taxes. These people spend copious amounts to avoid paying.
There is an economic threshold of money spent vs money not taxed. They spend within that threshold, but the money helps only them.
“Suddenly died” meaning he was punished for his homosexuality, chemically castrated, and committed suicide within months.
British society killed Turing.
Is the alternative really that bad Sergey? You would be paying a similar amount, and the money would actually go to some use, as opposed to being blown on a political fight.
Anyone trustworthy have anything to say on the matter?
Empty does not equate to unused. This was their old account that they definitely used.
It’s called conservation. It is why we have these places to climb in the first place. These are protected wild places.
