What if it's actually pronounced "Arstralia," and we never realized because of the accent? in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Could someone please transcribe this? I can't be bothered to read it.

Steam hardware survey for February 2026. What happened? Why did it lose such a big percentage? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 23 points 1 day ago

The stats are a sample, there is inheritantly some level of error. Ignore the month to month changes, focus on the longer term trends.

I miss when paywalls could be trivially bypassed by deleting the overlay

Server randomly locked up. Trying to find out why in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Reset button not working, but power button working is quite odd.

Is it just the once that this happened? Can you reliably trigger it with the car charger? If yes, maybe worth plugging in a monitor while you triggering it and see what happens.

Are the server and chargers close to each other? Some kind of EMP effect? Seems unlikely, but who knows.

Maybe don't check Wikipedia, some things have changed....

How to prevent your phone from being opened forcefully in c/explainlikeimfive@lemmy.world
[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 17 points 5 days ago (1 children)

This is well into paranoia territory. Anyone who is willing to either tail you until you have a medical episode or otherwise force the medical episode will have no trouble accessing your phone via more conventional means (kidnap + torture).

If you really want to protect against this "risk", either use a non-standard finger, or don't use biometrics at all.

And if you are likely to have a medical episode, either use your phones built in ICE (in case emergency) feature, wear one of those medical alert bands, or write the ICE numbers on your phone case.

Are you familiar with ReiserFS? Because that's how you get more ReiserFS's...

Key bindings to control Webcam (github.com)
 

I made this to help my partner with her WFH setup.

Some of her cameras will over-expose when left on auto, and the settings to tweak the exposure aren't super easy to get to.

With this tool, we have bound the spare knobs on her macropad (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003500083583.html) to increase/decrease the exposure easily.

Disclosure: I used AI for the initial draft of the Windows api, and also to generate the README. Both have been manually reviewed and extensively refactored, although I am sure that there are some AI-isms that I probably missed (or accepted).

Yearly firework tradition (programming.dev)
 

Every year, I grab my camera and head out to try take a photo of a firework. Every year I get a blurry mess of poorly exposed photos. This is the best one I got this year.

Seems like its been pinned there somehow, despite being 2 days old. Happens when logged out as well.

ESPHome Addressable RGB Emulator (github.com)
 

Hi All. This might not be for everyone, and is very rough around the edges, but I have written a tool to more easily test how custom addressable RGB effects work.

Simply copy the code portion of the lamba into a text file, and then build and run, and it will output on your terminal how the effect will look.

It is very rough, you need a C compiler, and a RGB/TrueColor capable terminal.

If it works for you, let me know, if it doesn't, also let me know.

Rewrite of screen in Rust. Feedback and advice pls. (programming.dev)
 

I dunno if this is appropriate for this community, so mods, please delete if not.

I have been writing a screen clone in rust.

https://github.com/cameroncros/PoorMansScreen/tree/better_screen (The main branch is how I currently use it, not at all screen-like, the better_screen branch is much closer to a screen replacement.)

It all currently works fine, albeit quite simple, and I suspect not following best practices. Please talk shit about my code so I can fix that :D

For my next stage of development, I would like to use some combo of vt100 and ratatui to wrap the shell in a border, or add a menu bar at the top or bottom to make it clear when the user is inside a "screen". Does anyone have any thoughts on how to go about doing that? I am very unskilled at ratatui.

How do you feel about portrails of Autism in media? (programming.dev)
 

Hi All. I have been watching a lot of House lately, and just started "Extrodinary Attorney Woo". I am curious to know what you all think of their portrails of Autism. Is it pandering? Representation? Romantisation?

Also see "The Good Doctor", "Atypical", "Love on the spectrum" etc.

Cutting Garolite (G10) (programming.dev)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by CameronDev@programming.dev to c/3dprinting@lemmy.ml

I posted here a while back when my glass bed failed. One of the suggestions was to replace with Garolite or G10. My sheet finally arrived and i set about cutting it down to size.

...

Within 4cm, my basically unused jigsaw blade was worn flat, and by the end of the first cut (20cm), there is basically no more teeth.

For the second side, I tried using a multitool cutter, and within a few millimeters it was visibly blunt (plastic and metal tools). Finished it off with a standard wood hand saw, which seemed to go better.

So warning to anyone considering garolite, dont use power tools, it will fuck them up.

Does alien.top do anything other than mirror reddit comments? (programming.dev)
 

I have just realised that alien.top seems to be mirroring reddit accounts, posts and comments, without labelling them as such. What is the point of this one way mirroring? As soon as users realise, they are going to just leave. There is no point having a discussion with a bot that cannot respond.
