Hype for the Future 62GEM: The Interesting Quirks of Maine

Using #GNU as Assembler (not Assembly, but the Assembler) and ld Linker to spit out a working BMP gradient image.

Yeah, you read it right. I'm not using #Assembly to produce an image. I'm, instead, using Assembler directives and macros during compile-time to generate a binary file that happens to be a valid image (BMP) file.

🚨 Breaking News: Someone with a blog still hasn't made peace with Go, the programming language equivalent of a cardboard cutout. 🎉 After a decade-long battle, they're still heroically tilting at windmills, valiantly pointing out that Go's #quirks are...quirky. 🧐 Spoiler alert: Repetition is key in this epic saga of "Why won't Go change for me?"

Fusion360 can be maddening at times. I meticulously crafted fully-parametric models for our storage boxes and rigorously tested various sizes. But when I generated the final version, the software chose to mirror only a subset of the features.

If you've downloaded model files from the 2200A series, please remove them and grab the updated versions. My apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Was ich heute gelernt habe: Eine WD Elements (externe Festplatte) einfach mal so out of the Box an einen #RaspberryPi anstöpseln, das funktioniert nicht. Das wird frustrierend langsam. Da helfen auch erstmal keine "#Quirks-Hacks" aus dem Netz.

Grund: Die Platte wird NTFS-formatiert ausgeliefert.

Ein Wechsel auf Ext4 via "sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/[Partition auf der WDE]" wirkt wahre Wunder.

Für Neulinge: Achtung - die Aktion löscht sämtliche Daten auf der Platte!

John Wathey concentrates on the unconditionally loving side of any given deity. He argues the selective evolutionary pressure is for the survival of helpless human infants. We're born completely dependent on our mothers, especially in the first few days, because she's our source of food, warmth, protection and everything we need to exist.
