looks nice, but if i still can't use terminal or closer to native cli, the pixel fold 10 with termux is still the right device for on-the-go development. termius is ok, but with termux i can run emacs on the pixel.

I’d like to learn more about doing this myself - do you recommend any good guides or posts?

i like this one...and it does have _some_ hinge protection. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F498PG6P?ref=fed_asin_title&th=1

This one: https://a.co/d/0gbmUrvs - it’s not my desktop mechanical for sure, but it’s solid and portable and not full of tiny keys.

With Graphene and Termux, I use my Fold 10 as a cyberdeck with a foldable BT keyboard. It’s amazing how focused that experience can be. More portable than a MacBook Air. I didn’t look at it as a phone getting bigger, but a laptop getting smaller.

reminded me of how much i loved reading this: "Lost Highways: An Illustrated History of Road Movies by Sargeant, Jack" https://www.abebooks.com/9781871592689/Lost-Highways-Illustr...

i like html fine, but org-mode, now you're talkin'. it's like the nasa voyager equivalent of text markup. just needs to be rescued from being held hostage in emacs.

But did you read to the end while pooping?

this reminded me of this wonderful utility: https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck

This is one of those HN posts I will remember forever.

Depends on any project ideas, but as a newbie to hardware dev and with my own small scope eurorack module idea, I am having a lot of luck with flux.ai. Even got a small order of 5 PCBs printed for under $200.

The protomolecule???

They definitely should not own one of these then: https://somasynths.com/ether/. But it is lots of fun for me.

Love all of these, but my ears say the Mazda 787b beats everything. Chorus, oh the chorus! https://youtu.be/QtUEPwHnxmU

To your second question, yes. Andor would be exactly the wrong one to bail on if you’ve made it through those others.

Flail and flail, it’s just another brick in the mail.

I’ve always wondered if the Apple trackpad was just the capacitive part of an iPhone screen. It feels like glass. It responds similarly. And they have a huge user base sample size for improvements.

That resulted in a loud chuckle. My mind was perfectly prepared to not expect a punch line, and it smacked me over the head. Thanks for the Christmas gift of laughter.

Nicer teas (pricier usually) come in cotton muslins - https://www.mariagefreres.com/en/tea.html?conditionnement=47. Their Marco Polo tea is my once a year splurge. The bag is tied with string - no glue.

Modeled on (and improved) the booger!

Nothing like H2GCu. It’s even just pennies on the dollar.

Wow! I didn’t know about that channel. They went into a lot of great details. So many other videos to consume now. Thank you!

I love all of these. I have practically memorized this one: https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/sand-won-t-save-yo...

i've even figured out how to create a component that didn't exist in their library - a lot of the manufacturers/related appear to provide the symbol, footprint and 3d files to recreate it on flux. this is one for example - https://www.flux.ai/centplaids0u/oki-78sr-51p5-w36-c-1480 - a 12v to 5v voltage regulator. got files from here: https://www.snapeda.com/parts/OKI-78SR-5/1.5-W36-C/Murata%20.... Got it built into the board and it works! holy heck.

hope it works for you!

this resonates. i will share that i'm trying out and having luck with flux.ai. it's not perfect, but for a small hobby project and someone with little experience and not getting far quickly in kicad, it works. i have a pcb in-hand from jlcpcb right now and it works. it also introduces some of the shared features discussed above. (i don't work for them, just looking for something that would let me do a fairly fast PoC)

From the same marketer that brought us PZEV (partial zero emission vehicle).

I’ve done this with two hard drive platters. Never knew it had a name. Cool.

My favorite, rare, elevator feature: one where you can “unpress” a button. Make a mistake on floor selection? Just tap it again.
