once upon a time… found a strange looking cable.. Double micro audio jack? WHAT ON EARTH IS THAT? It is a serial-to-usb programming radio cable for RETEVIS handheld “walkie talkie” radios, that allows to set different modes of the radio […]

why? because it would be a shame to put all those intel Macs to the trash not particularly big fan of the aluminum bodies (uses loads of energy to make also not healthy to be touched daily) but they surely […]
mekotronicsplz note: “the-best-technology-does-nothing-without-a-good-human-culture” Yes! Read that correctly, modern SmartPhones are actually full blown computers, so why not use them as such? Now that they have enough (RISC) based computational power that they can replace Desktop and Notebooks, problem: they can […]
easiest and best fire protection: have the cells SPACED apart, so one cell CAN NOT heat up surrounding cells put the battery pack in as-thick-as possible metal box then put plastic bag of sand on top of pack (better than […]
about giada are small, power efficient but powerfull embedded PCs (x86 and ARM, tested the F300, 5 years later: 30x boxes still working perfectly fine, not even a power supply failed!) 😀 benchmark results: https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/9718004 quasi same CPU speed as […]
