Big fan of SBC gaming, open source engine recreations/source ports, gaming in general, alternative operating systems, and all things modding.
Trying to post and comment often in an effort to add to Lemmy’s growth.

Because it can be very finicky and I don’t know what the ramifications would be if the wire length did cause issues flashing the firmware.
I would follow the installation steps and make a backup and check that back up but I don’t know how badly errors during the flashing process would effect the laptop.
Plenty of people also seem to use the CH341A unmodified without issue but I don’t know if the 5V issue may cause problems in rare situations or if it’s a complete gamble of whether or not it could brick your device. If it’s only an issue if you do something like jostle the clip while it’s doing something than it would be a lot easier for me to just go that route
I think they were under the impression I want to install Libreboot on the Raspberry Pi. Maybe they didn’t get a good look at the photo or how it was cropped confused them
Correct but it can be used to flash Libreboot on devices like the ThinkPad I mentioned in the title.
I’m asking if this configuration would be effective considering I’ve heard of people having issues with longer wires causing problems. Adding jumpers and a breadboard is just adding to that length.
I’d like to flash Libreboot on my Thinkpad T440P using the instructions from the Libreboot website

Mind linking it? I went there recently and didn’t see any air filters.
I guess that’s something I should be more forward with. I don’t really know what I am trying to filter out. I feel like my apartment can feel stuffy at times and agitate my sinuses but that may have to do with my AC unit pumping largely unfiltered air from the a busy downtown area into my unit
Thanks for the link. Very neat
Did it melt or something?
If I’m in the room there’s a strong chance a computer is on. I don’t use my phone a lot at home so most of my entertainment and time is spent on it
As in the continuous United States 🦅🦅🦅
What a great word in today’s dating scene. Is it an older word that has been modified to be more modern?
You know that episode of Seinfeld where someone eats a candy bar with a knife and fork and it just spreads into the wild because people don’t really question it?
That’s what I’m hoping happens with overmorrow
That list is going to send me down a rabbit hole looking for the etymology of words
Not commonly but every so often YouTubers I watch will start using it and it sticks for a prolonged period of time.
It was just the first thing that came to mind. I imagine there are other equally silly internet words out there.
I actually dislike that term a lot.
It’s like spunkgargleweewee. It seems immature and makes me feel more dismissive towards the argument. Maybe that also has to do with it being a catch all term and people seem less willing to give specific examples of how things are declining in quality.
I would say the answer to avoid any of this would be to use homebrew games but I don’t know if ones for harder systems to emulate (GameCube, PS2, etc) would be great for testing handheld emulators
I don’t think that supports desktop games beyond source ports like Quake and Diablo though
The reason of pirating things because you would be offline has mostly disappeared. Partially because mobile data has become more affordable but also because more subscription based apps give you some way to consume content offline.
Where I see this the most is with music. Outside of those who want FLAC quality I don’t know of a lot of people who pirate music anymore.
Could errors during the flashing process be dangerous though or would it just mean trying again until it works?
