What does "happy to jump on a call" mean?

Interesting that decades later, you can do radioastronomy with a system small enough to carry in one hand.

Finally bought what seems to be the bible on #radioastronomy - Kraus. I have several other books which seem to defer to Kraus on some of the “basics”. Good to have all of the essential information in one place. Seems this book is only currently available as ring bound or a cheap paperback. One specific goal I have here for 2024 is to properly understand wave polarisation & Stokes parameters.

@robpike @mattblaze the Internet is our collective superego & id, it seems.

@Gina I've only been to Bilbao out of those and can recommend it.

@pid_eins I'm using the Akkoma web client which allows quoting, amazingly.

The video of the 2nd of my FOSDEM talks is online now. (The 1st one not yet) It's from the boot loader MC and about systemd-boot, systemd-stub, UKIs, and that stuff. I.e. hopefully providing some explanations on why we think distros should consider switching to these and away from their current boot loader choices.

It's a lot of information, packed in a short 20min time slot. Enjoy → https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/fosdem/2024/aw1126/fosdem-2024-1987-systemd-boot-systemd-stub-ukis.av1.webm

My 1st FOSDEM talk is now online, too. An exciting hour of me rambling about our TPM future, with a focus on what's in store for distributions:

Enjoy!

It's been a while since I looked into different #fediverse clients. Is there a good threaded web based client, or cross-platform app?

@azonenberg @oshpark @rgilton and this is why specialized technology is expensive, which I think many people don't understand

@skykiss seems like we've almost reached the end of the end of history, what is next?

@skykiss also, the downstream effects will mean many more deaths in the future, in Ukraine and beyond.

@kellylepo great story, which I'm assuming is getting very well known now

@azonenberg @rgilton as a hobbyist, it's interesting to see concrete costs of professional level development. I just got 3 copies of a prototype board made by @oshpark for $8, including shipping.

@stefanfendt good to know. I have seen main circuit RCDs for sale in the US, but they are in the hundreds of dollars and I don't know if or where they are required. No way a typical DIYer here is getting into that level of expense and expertise -- I assume any normal GFCI will trip on significant inductive or capacitative loads. People here expect such components to be very inexpensive.
