by J. R. Haigh 15 Sep '16

15 Sep '16

Hi, . A lightning strike near my parents' house frazzled their phone and Internet connection, yesterday. It has damaged and disabled their ISP-provided router, as well as disabled the phone service, which indicates that at least one other piece of equipment – possibly the faceplate or equipment at the exchange – has also been damaged by the electromagnetic pulse from the strike. . While that other damage is diagnosed and fixed, I could do with getting a VDSL2 modem that, together with an … [View More]

OSH SSDs
by J. R. Haigh 14 Sep '16

14 Sep '16

Hi, . Does anyone know whether any OSH solid-state drive project has come to fruition? I'd like to get a 512GiB or 1TiB, 2.5in SSD, but I like to support OSH projects where possible and I don't like that modern drives have processors more powerful than my X60 Tablet, with nonlibre firmware, and perform tasks that should be the responsibility of the filesystem, such as deduplication, compression, encryption, and wear-levelling. . If there isn't, then at least I'm expressing the interest such … [View More]

26 Aug '16

Hi! Does anyone have any legs (3D printed or otherwise) that can be borrowed for a demo of some Physiotherapy wearable technology for a day in London on the 6th September? It's quite a strange request but it'll really make a difference if anyone has anything to offer. Thanks so much for any pointers or offers!

It's a pretty good deal, if I say so myself, and helps to make the event possible, of course. Any offers or suggestions gratefully received and … [View More]
