    Teufel&amp;#39;s MYND bluetooth speaker is marketed as repair- and tinker-friendly. I hacked in an external connector so I can turn the device on when it&amp;#39;s in a hard-to-reach place. Some Teufel employees took it way further: they created an expansion board so you can replace the BT board with an RPi Zero. https://blog.teufelaudio.com/project-myndberry/

    So if I violate #HuggingFace&amp;#39;s copyright, that&amp;#39;s fine as long as I post a form online somewhere where they can &amp;#39;opt out&amp;#39; of me violating their copyright - did I get that right? https://huggingface.co/spaces/HuggingFaceCode/in-the-stack

    I hunted down another nondeterminism in the Scala compiler. It&#39;s kinda satisfying when a considerable amount of analysis, digging and testing finally leads to a 2-character fix ๐Ÿ˜† In this case I could justify spending this time as part of a @NGIZero@mastodon.xyz @nlnet@social.nlnet.nl grant. These folks unlock a lot of foundational work for the public benefit. Proud to do part of it. https://github.com/scala/scala3/pull/26510/changes #ReproducibleBuilds #Scala

    &amp;quot;I made this longer because I did not have time to make it shorter&amp;quot; - that quote was really ahead of its time, wasn&amp;#39;t it?

    &amp;quot;It&amp;#39;s not obvious how to solve this problem, so I&amp;#39;ll shut down the place where possible approaches can be discussed&amp;quot; ๐Ÿ˜•๐Ÿ˜  #RaspberryPI https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-imager/issues/1354#issuecomment-4125736244

    Having fun with NixOS on the PineTab2: u-boot video and USB keyboard now work, so I can select the NixOS generation to boot into without needing the serial console. https://github.com/nabam/nixos-rockchip/pull/77 #NixOS #uboot #pine64 #pinetab2

    Someone assuming @notion is dead just because no-one answered their question on IRC within 2 hours on a holiday. I think one of the great things about open source is that you can pick up and revive a dormant project if it interests you. Also, even if no large feature development is currently happening for @notion we had a nice release just 10 days ago - I wouldn&amp;#39;t even call it dormant, certainly not dead.

    On the heels of the NixOS 25.11 release, I reproduced the minimal installation ISO again. My approach is to take a NixOS VM from 2020, and then build the ISO (almost) without relying on the binary cache. This means it builds essentially all of the build-time dependencies and all of the items that make it into the ISO from source, without directly relying on Nix-specific prebuilt packages. On the other hand, NixOS is somewhat less strict than for example Debian in requiring package &amp;#39;sour...

    I wanted to flip pages using a footswitch. Now Bluetooth foot switches are cheap, but I already *had* a footswitch, so that seemed silly. After some brainstorming at @hack42, some rummaging through parts boxes, and some light coding, the prototype works! Just needs a nicer form factor. https://codeberg.org/raboof/footswitch
