Antifašisticky blok: spotted
(We finished breakfast just in time for the beginning of the march and decided to enjoy the company of the friend-shaped entities over here for a while)
Also die Sudeten sind ja schön, aber waren Sie schonmal in den Karpaten?
(and those are just the 1,000m foothills, with the first 2,000m ridge in the back and the higher mountains not even in frame)
Morgen geht's dann voraussichtlich aufn Kamm ^.^

@feuerrot@chaos.social ... Now I kinda wanna turn that into Gerber files and have it manufactured, just for the looks of it
How to confuse an admin:
unmount /tmpFill /tmp with lots and lots of garbage until / is fullmount /tmp
Et voila: / is out of space, but conventional tools such as ncdu will not be able to determine why / where all the space has gone.
How to live in a 30°C 60%rH flat today:
Every hour, step outside for a minute.
Afterwards, the flat will feel extraordinarily cool and livable by comparison.
Batch-processing a bunch of raw files turns this netbook into a neat little lap warmer. And now I have lots of grainy, coloured cats!
(aka: processed a roll of Cinestill 400D that @dm2lct@chaos.social and I shot over the past weeks on her Praktica BX20 and that @senf@bunt.social was kind enough to develop :3 )

So. I just spent two and a half days in a colloquium with about three dozen postdocs. Technically, we were competing for who gets assigned the term of best computer science dissertation, except that it absolutely did not feel like a competition – more like a friendly gathering of individuals with similar backgrounds (albeit very different thesis topics).
That was a pretty wholesome experience.

Dagstuhl colloquium, also known as: got up at 06:00 and now (14 hours later) the smartphone is still showing 83% state of charge.
In other news: my room is warm and cozy (as opposed to the pretty damn chilly seminar room) and I am /so/ not going to leave it again today.

"... but when I'm offline I don't have access to Copilot!"
It didn't even occur to me that this is something which people consider as a problem nowadays.

This is the first time I used the fitness room at a venue and... Yeah, that's a good concept. Especially when it's raining cats and dogs and the internalized cat has zoomies.

Hello, my name is derf and I enjoy dancing / walking / standing on the edge, both figuratively and literally. Sometimes even with guardrails!
New blog post: Software-Defined FM Audio Transmission with ADI / PlutoSDR
In which I try to explain not just how but also why you can transmit FM signals with PySDR / PlutoSDR / ZynqSDR / IQ sampling in general, and maybe throw in one or two mistakes in the process.
Do let me know if you find some errata :)
