debounced

hard to say for sure, but U109 and U208 could be UART into those Cisco baseband or radio chips. one placement for the 2.4 GHz (G) and 5 GHz (A), respectively. would be interesting to probe around there and see if you get a serial interface to it… obviously for extra credit ;-)

You like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He’s been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this; Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is “Hip To Be Square”. A song so catchy, most people probably don’t listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it’s not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It’s also a personal statement about the band itself.

and they better watch out, there’s a live stick of dynamite next to that ekg machine. time’s a ticking, hurry up and buy!

i use Tailscale on everything these days (or use Headscale if you want to self host the control plane). with the free plan you get up to 100 devices on a “tailnet”, just set the right ACLs to only allow the remote connection ports of choice, pair it with self hosted RustDesk, and you should be good to go. the NAT traversal of Tailscale is pretty good from what i’ve observed, but sometimes you might get stuck on a relay (called a DERP) if it can’t get across the firewall(s).

shit winds a blowing, randers

It’s simple, we, uh, kill the Batman.

lieutenant dan!

100% agree, it’s also how I keep my 98 Camry alive outside the occasional trip to the junkyard.

meh, it still has some use. my dog tore up the plastic housing on garage door sensors out of boredom and there was no way i was calling a local place to quote out parts for a 14 year old opener… found the same pair of sensors (albeit used) on ebay for $25. a little dog proofing later and bingo bango, back in business. but usually it’s my last resort for obscure stuff that i can’t find anywhere else and i have to be really desperate.

Brother®, I know what you mean

98 Camry has joined the chat

Another old girl that refuses to die, but sure likes to keep me busy and my wallet empty. I’ll get maybe a few weeks to enjoy the peace before something else decides it needs replacing, but luckily I do all the work myself… easy enough these days with YouTube and Toyota Camry forums.

Felt cute, might delete [your existence] later.
