What beginner tools are needed for soldering besides a soldering iron, flux, and solder?
Replies: >>15638
>>15637
Good pair of helping hands and/or vices
Tweezers, lots of them
Pliers
Microscope or eyeglasses if  eyes are not good
Ventilation
Depending on what you solder, hot air gun and heat shrink. In my experience, if you can use UV epoxy, it is much better
Soldering iron tips, lots of them of different sizes
A wire mesh ball to abusively clean tips
Sponge with water to quickly clean tip
Light source

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocard_(printed_circuit_board)
>Eurocard is an IEEE standard format for printed circuit board (PCB) cards that can be plugged together into a standard chassis which, in turn, can be mounted in a 19-inch rack. The chassis consists of a series of slotted card guides on the top and bottom, into which the cards are slid so they stand on end, like books on a shelf. At the spine of each card is one or more connectors which plug into mating connectors on a backplane that closes the rear of the chassis.
It is a physical format only, so you can use whatever connectors with whatever hardware you want, and 100mm version is pretty close to standard PCI Express card sizes. A 16x PCIe connector is also less than 100mm long, so you could design Eurocards with that connector. Maybe it would be even possible to design Eurocards and PCIe cards in tandem, as the main difference would be placing the connector either at the end or at the bottom. Still, what I am really thinking about is how 10" racks are getting popular: you could make a 10" 3U PCIe-Eurocard that could be used to house anything from a large variety of SBCs to gigantic RAM cards to ridiculous SSD farms. I could see it being a hit with certain hobbyists if you turn old systems into Eurocard SBCs, so that you could plug an Amig

so, is it acceptable to trade quality for quantity? you don't have to look far to find examples of how the latter hates the former; the slowness of the board is a plus, this usually encourages some effort posting since the threads stay up longer and are read by the majority.

I bought a Kinesis mechnical ergo keyboard 25 years ago precisely because the cheapass keyboard I got with my PC started causing problems for me. I worked on the computer, so I was typing a whole lot... The nice thing is they had it on sale at the time for $200. That model isn't sold anymore, I guess the closest thing is Advantage2 which they're selling now for $350. I think they both have the same Cherry brown switches. One of my keys finally stopped working after all these years, so I'm gonna have to replace it (the switch). Otherwise the only other keyboards I found comfortable were those on the old IBM Thinkpads.

So i recently got myself a new keyboard. A keychron q6 wired version. Now i also got 2 sets of silent keycaps from it. These are said to be the most recommended silent keycaps. I ordered TTC Frozen Silent keycaps and Outemu Silent Lemon/Lime keycaps.
Here are my thoughts first on the keyboard and the original caps that came with. Its fine. I've only ever had 1 other keyboard so cant say much about it. Very loud to use but less louder than my previous keyboard. 
Now to the switch impressions.
First Outemu Lime/Lemon:
I was very disappointed to say the least. Sure its silent when you press down on the key but when you let go and it goes back up there is a noisy rebound/reverberation noise. Basically its fine when you press but noisy when key goes back up.
The TTC Silent Frozen on the other hand is good except the spacebar. This might simply be a keyboard problem in itself but the spacebar and backspace key does have loud reverberation when it comes back up. Everything else is dead silent. Im happy with it. Not happy with the outemu switches.

Police seizes Archetyp Market drug marketplace, arrests admin

Law enforcement authorities from six countries took down the Archetyp Market, an infamous darknet drug marketplace that has been operating since May 2020.

Archetyp Market sellers provided the market's customers with access to high volumes of drugs, including cocaine, amphetamines, heroin, cannabis, MDMA, and synthetic opioids like fentanyl through more than 3,200 registered vendors and over 17,000 listings.

Over its five years of activity, the marketplace amassed over 612,000 users with a total transaction volume of over €250 million (approximately $289 million) in Monero cryptocurrency transactions.

As part of this joint action codenamed 'Operation Deep Sentinel' (led by German police and supported by Europol and Eurojust), investigators in the Netherlands took down the marketplace's infrastructure, while a 30-year-old German national suspected of being Archetyp Market's administrator was apprehended in Barcelona, Spain.

One Archetyp Market moderator and six of the marketplace's highest vendors were also arrested in Germany and Sweden.

In total, law enforcement officers seized 47 smartphones, 45 computers, narcotics, and assets worth €7.8 million from all suspects during Operation Deep Sentinel.

​"Between 11 and 13 June, a series of coordinated actions took place across Germany, the Netherlands, Romania, Spain, Sweden, targeting the platform's administrator, moderators, key vendors, and technical infrastructure. Around 300 officers were deployed to carry out enforcement actions and secure critical evidence," Europol said.

How does /tech/ feel about tablets in general? I find that they failed to become the laptop replacements many thought they'd become back then, mainly due to their OS, which is funny looking back as Windows 8 ruined a lot of Microsoft's reputation because they were certain that iPads would be the end of them... however they're still good at being what Steve Jobs introduced them as, something between the computer and smartphone, that's worse than both in general, but better than all other devices in a few specific things, justifying their purpose to be.

I personally love mine as its replaced my laptop for most things, due to my usecase allowing for it, but it's also the best device I have for a lot of things, like digital art, reading comic books and manga, books and document reading in general, and media consumption, it's great.

This is more an Android problem:
>programs are written in java
>programs are designed to be able to be killed at any time
https://developer.android.com/guide/components/activities/process-lifecycle
<application process's lifetime isn't directly controlled by the application itself. Instead, it is determined by the system through a combination of the parts of the application that the system knows are running, how important these things are to the user, and how much overall memory is available in the system.
This means incorrectly coded programs can hog ram, or simply gets killed if not aggressively attention seeking enough.

If the EU wanted to fuck with the US and China, they would make it mandatory to unlock the bootloader of a goyphone, and make the device tree public. In a worst case scenario they could make it mandatory once the device stops receiving official software updates, that would be still enough to stop a whole lot of people from buying a new one every few years. Especially if they mandated that banks must make their apps OS neutral to a certain degree.

Beginner Info
If you would like to try out GNU/Linux because of https://itvision.altervista.org/why-windows-10-sucks.html, you can do one of the following:
0) Install a GNU/Linux distribution of your choice in a Virtual Machine (preferably using KVM or Oracle VirtualBox for newfriends).
1) Use a live image and to boot directly into the GNU/Linux distribution without installing anything (keep in mind that the performance of live distros might be very different than from distro that was booted from your HDD, as most distros are loaded in RAM and don't include the proprietary drivers for NVIDIA GPUs or up-to-date Mesa libraries in their isos).
2) Dual boot the GNU/Linux distribution of your choice along with Windows (make sure to install Windows first, as it can "replace" GRUB or other UNIX bootloaders, and troubleshooting of Windows replacing your bootloader of choice might be painful for people that just started learning about the Linux kernel)
3) Go balls deep and replace everything with GNU/Linux (you really shouldn't do this, if you don't know what you're putting yourself into, see: https://itvision.altervista.org/why.linux.is.not.ready.for.the.desktop.current.html).

If you want to discuss GNU/Linux distros, there is already a thread for it: >>>/tech/530

Some hastily written notes...
* everyone thinks UNIX (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc4ROCJYbm0) is still the state-of-art. Ignorants praise Windows, not knowing it's originally a dumbed down clone of VMS that has some patches ported from OS/2 (https://www.itprotoday.com/compute-engines/windows-nt-and-vms-rest-story). Some say that Windows is also still mainly a single-user system that emulates a multi-user system. I think we are living Higurashi tier time loop when it comes to operating systems...
 (and CPUs: X86 is relic from the times of Vaxen. ARM, PowerPC/Power ISA, MIPS, RISC-V are more modern and better. Even modern X86 CPUs converts CISC to RISC in the microcode!)
* Plan9 (9front? Also, see plan9port and 9base), BeOS (Haiku) and TempleOS were the last innovative operating systems that I know of. Even the OSDev people imitate UNIX.
* It's awful that a misbehaving device driver can take down the whole system. Microkernels (e.g. MINIX, GNU Hurd, seL4) or muh """hybrid kernels""" (e.g. DragonFly BSD, Haiku, ReactOS I don't know if modern Windows has a hybrid kernel.) should be the norm. MINIX is incidentally perhaps the most used OS because ((( Intel ME ))) uses it as a basis for the CIAware that runs on our fucken CPUs!
* Nearly all criticism of UNIX is historic stuff: The UNIX-HATERS Handbook (https://web.mit.edu/~simsong/www/ugh.pdf a joke), Multicians (https://www.multicians.org/) and LispM (http://fare.tunes.org/LispM.html) users...

Xerox Smalltalk-80 and Cedar were ahead of their time. Smalltalk systems actually inspired Plan 9's acme & Rio and early Apple GUIs. It also probably inspired Wirth's Oberon project.

tl;dr
What if you could have an OS that's made and extended with just one simple language? The Dynabook was designed for middle school kids! What if you could browse components and inspect everything? What if you could use the debugger to reprogram anything and the system could just continue from that point? What if it also has good support for text, graphics, mouse and keyboard? Today you can learn and experience Smalltalk using Pharo. Here is their free MOOC: https://mooc.pharo.org
