Etching deity 1, Stephen 0 Etched PCB fail. The copper was eroded under the etch-resist ink. So there is not much left. Perhaps left too long, but also there is still copper between the pads in places where there was no ink. I will make sure the copper is thoroughly cleaned before I apply the etch resist. I might even go something a bit more heavy duty than the etch resist pen. Nail polish?

Trying a relatively simple home-bake double sided PCB etch. This is a dual-band HF filter with a micro relay to switch between 30m-40m and 20m-15m using SMD components. I have modelled the designs and laid out the pcbs in kicad, using chebyshev values. Previous design I used for the digital pixie works okay, but it is not quite as ambitious in the cutoff, does not use SMD components, and has a manual switch. Plus the skirts on this new filter are a lot sharper to get a decent cut off. I printed the front and back copper for the boards from kicad onto a4 and traced the outlines of the pads using pin-pricks through the paper, scored between the pin dots on the copper with a modelling knife and ruler. I could have ordered the pcbs from an online fabricator using gerbers from kicad. But this is a proto-type and I am not sure how well, if at all it will work. I didnt want to fork out for boards that Im not sure will work.

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org I would not say wrong, just that unless you are sure what’s in that lacquer and you know it’s not harmful when it decomposes under high temperatures, a safer bet might be to use untreated wood.

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org a varnished working area is an interesting choice. Sure you can’t find something less fumey to work on. A piece of thin ply or something?

Should I be surprised Elon Musks father and brother are Putin fanboys? I guess not. But it makes the disabling of starlink over Ukraine all the more interesting. #Putin #Musk #Ukraine #tommywhatshisname https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/jul/11/elon-musk-family-foundation-took-tommy-robinson-to-russia-says-musks-father

#ZeroDay in every Linux Kernel since 2017
There’s a fair bit of patching to be done.

Funny how our cultures identify with the native species isn’t it? But entirely appropriate that we should support them. Just as we should identify with and support our native peoples and their culture. #kiwi #Aotearoa

I was at the Dawn Service in Castlemaine Victoria on Anzac Day this year. It was a modest service that included an acknowledgment of first peoples and was very respectful (no booing). There was also a speech by a young First Nations student who acknowledged the contribution of indigenous Australians who fought in the wars long before indigenous Australians were accepted/recognised as Australian. It was entirely appropriate. Lest we forget. #ANZAC

@april@macaw.social TIL that when I try this on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS not only do i need to install traceroute but I need to add —resolve-hostnames to see them Since when do we not install network utils on a Linux distribution by default?

@HuShuo@mastodon.social let's face it Ken is a total dickhead. If a cis man watching this movie feels threatened because they identify with Ken, they deserve all the feelings they leave the cinema with.

Replying to @RollingStone@mstdn.social
@RollingStone@mstdn.social it amazes me that such brazen racism is openly advocated in the US. Telling white people they should be afraid of being 'replaced' by non-whites. Inventing things to be afraid of has hitherto been the domain of religion. Whenever I see people raving about things to be afraid of, particularly when those things include minority groups, they always seem to me part of a mind control cult. #Gosar #MindControlCult

@j@mastodon.n41.lat previous Australian governments actually legislated an infosec antipattern. They had the help of Labor to do this. Also they did not stop at infosec. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/dec/05/coalitions-deal-with-labor-on-cracking-encrypted-messages-what-it-means-for-you
