What do you like best, the sun or the moon? in c/wholesome@reddthat.com

Moon. It's less burny.

"Autofill from URL" only works if URL ends in a slash in c/lemmyconnect@lemmy.ca
[–] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 1 points 2 hours ago

It does seem quite random, so I'm not sure the issue is exclusively slash related!

Which git branch are you on? in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world
[–] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 32 points 1 day ago (4 children)

There's no "slave" convention in git so I'm not sure how it can be considered an issue (I get that drives being master and slave is a bit icky). But then, what is it a master of?

As others have said, "trunk" would have been a more sensible replacement.

I saw one the other day on my tree. Haven't seen any for years.

A vintage ride on the British Isles' only electric mountain railway (www.bbc.co.uk)
 

(Technically not UK but seems to fit here)

The Snaefell Mountain Railway reveals the Isle of Man's forgotten tourism boom – and serves as a gateway to the seven mythological kingdoms.

Most people in France, Germany, Italy and Spain would support UK rejoining EU, poll finds in c/europe@feddit.org

I'm British and I think we should be subject to more conditions than when we were previously in the EU, if we were to rejoin. We had a great deal and we stupidly left rather than trying to work with the EU to resolve whatever perceived problems we had. So, yeah, obviously as a Brit I'd be happier for us to join on our old terms but realistically we screwed up and we should pay for that.

"Autofill from URL" only works if URL ends in a slash (feddit.uk)
 

At least, that seems to be the case. I've seen several times now that it doesn't autofill, and fiddling with the URL has kicked it into life. Today I realised that it appears to only work if the URL ends in a slash.

The Sweeney at 50: ‘It’s still more lively than things on TV now’ (www.independent.co.uk)
 

Half a century ago, John Thaw’s flawed and fallible detective Jack Regan introduced the antihero to mainstream British TV audiences. Decades later, the show’s influence is still visible all over our modern drama series, writes Jonathan Wells

Do you have a "catchphrase"? if so, what is it? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Not sure, could be "and, um, yeah" when my sentence trails off because I've forgotten what I was talking about halfway through the sentence.

The Commodore 64 Ultimate computer is the company's first hardware release in over 30 years — pre-orders start at $299 (www.tomshardware.com)
 

No software emulation, this 'faithful recreation of the original motherboard' runs on an AMD Artix 7 FPGA.

This is basically a Commodore version of the ZX Spectrum Next!

How do your toughts work? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 2 points 1 week ago

Mostly it's my own voice for comments 🙂, maybe a slight inflection. I don't usually go overboard on the voices unless it's somebody I know, or occasionally characters in books.

Reading in my head certainly takes the same amount of time as reading out loud (occasionally with different voices for characters, as somebody else said).

If I read without doing that it's a lot quicker but it doesn't go in and I have to re-read it. My mind starts chatting away about something else rather than concentrating on the book.

UK’s wasted wind power laid bare by new Octopus tracking tool (www.rechargenews.com)

Britain wasted £649m already this year powering down wind farms as there is not enough grid capacity to send renewable energy where it is needed, utility finds

Trying to flash QMK/VIA firmware - HELP! I think I might have killed my keyb! (feddit.uk)
 

I bought a cheap Durgod Hades with the intention of sticking the QMK/VIA firmware on it.

First issue was getting it into the bootloader - the instructions didn't seem to be working, so I was trying different connection points and implements until it finally kicked into life. In doing that I suspect I may have killed the STM32... but I'm not sure.

Using dfu-util I've tried :unprotect:force and :mass-erase:force to try and recover it, and also downloaded STM32Cube to see if I have more luck with that.

dfu-util, no matter what I do, hangs at the erase point 0%. Eventually it times out with an error.

STM32Cube connects to the keyboard but complains it's in read-only or reset held. If I try again with the suggested Read Unprotect option it says I need to power off and power on the device, and the cycle continues.

So I think I've somehow bust it, is there anything else I can try before admitting defeat and getting another one?
