@vertigo Didn't even know you could do formal verification of FPGA stuff, cool!

Looking around for where one can get different kinds of amylase, protease and other useful enzymes. Found a company in Germany, that lists no prices and accepts orders only by snail mail or fax 📠

@chosafine Add some rel="me" on those links, and back from where they point too :]

Tip for blind users: if you type in Braille then sighted people can't tell what you're talking about!

@wxcafe This is actually how I inspect ROM usage when developing things for retro platforms (Atari 2600, NES). It's very useful! Example, showing how I combine compressed text data with 1-bit textures in the top, font data, tables and code: https://social.umeahackerspace.se/attachment/418678

Spent much of today rooting and installing #LineageOS on the Galaxy S5 I got from a friend of mine, made a write-up documenting it: http://härdin.se/blog/2018/08/25/rooting-and-installing-lineageos-on-a-samsung-galaxy-s5/

Testing my Web server with ab. 1000 requests per second, 6 MB/s. Load never goes above 0.5 😎

@iona there are more static site gens that you might want to try, to get a feel for which you like the most. jekyll for example. apt search generator|grep static might turn up more
-
@iona you use a registrar/TLD that supports it :)
.se supports åäö at least, see räksmörgås.se
-
More webzone / blog shenanigans. May be interesting to #pelican users on here: http://härdin.se/blog/2018/08/23/some-site-changes/

!umehack server up again, downtime from the disk being overly turgid with memes
-
@rotor Yeah. Cost is still higher tho. But on the other hand the concrete drums might not wear out as fast as batteries

@moonman I doubt even the 8% figure for Sweden. English is mandatory, as is taking a third language (typically German, French or Spanish)

@vogon This looks way more complicated/expensive than hydro, or even batteries. Round-trip losses and cost per stored kWh have to be low enough for it to be viable. On the other hand, every extra meter of crane gives great dividends
For fun, some quick calculation assuming you have that 120 meter crane (60 meter average height): concrete density = 2400 kg/m³, concrete cost = $108 per yd³ ($141 / m³). E = 2400*9.82*60 = 0.4 kWh. You're looking at $350 per kWh energy stored, compared to around $50 for lead-acid (alibaba). Even if you fill used oil drums ($8 per 208 liter drum) with dirt, you're still looking at $100 per kWh
I'm more psyched about some of the carbon technology that's coming out, where we can make batteries for bulk storage out of say used car tires or wood waste. Potentially way cheaper than lead-acid. Non-toxic too

@eukara y u no irc?

Idea: a dating system where men are not allowed to/are freed from having to make first contact.
I've had this idea for a few years, but not enough energy or know-how to act on it. Maybe with Contrapoints' latest video touching on the difference between men's and women's experience on this field, someone will pick this up

@donblanco That and the trills are certainly very strange compared to what we use today :) There's a feeling in them very similar to what happens in experimental codec work
