@John77394613@SashSoulsmith@mov_axbx@lukeweston By placing the phone on each side of the gap and stomping on the ground at some distance, I could observe very little damping. The vibrations were being transmitted almost as-is, as if there were no gap whatsoever (2/2)
@John77394613@SashSoulsmith@mov_axbx@lukeweston It was a silly thing. The telescope was mounted on top of a concrete block buried into the ground. The gap between the block and the surrounding ground was filled with expanded-polystyrene that degraded with time. (1/2)
@SashSoulsmith@mov_axbx@lukeweston Yess, I have those too, they are extremely useful too. I used the accelerometers some days ago to show a telescope mount wasn't properly damped with respect to the surrounding ground.
@mov_axbx@lukeweston You don't even need one. There's a bunch of apps out there that run on your phone and can do that. I like Spectroid, but there are lots of them.
@DynamicWebPaige@IbnuIdris123 Those signals are extremely narrow-banded. And after undoing the DSSS, they feel more like a laser. And a 50W laser is a rather powerful laser.
@AlainCreaciones ¿Has conseguido volcar el firmware del dispositivo? Que haya un uC y un IC GPS encendido 24/7 no quiere decir necesariamente que estén generando un registro de por donde te mueves (que puede ser, ojo).

Qualcomm have bought out Arduino, and several weeks later have altered the Terms & Conditions. Dave does a deep dive of the changes.

00:00 - Qualcomm have acquired Arduino. I've got a bad feeling about this...
01:02 - How much did they pay for Arduino?
02:54 - They have changed the Terms And Conditions
03:54 - Arbitration Disputes
04:21 - Kids? Bugger off!
05:11 - Are they now restricting reverse engineering?
06:35 - Irrevocable! Give us everything, forever.
07:08 - Revocable! We can take away your stuff.
08:26 - No competition for you!
09:46 - Patents
10:25 - Export & Trade Compliance. No selling to naughty people.
11:10 - For Personal Use Only
11:36 - Changes to the Changes. We can shut it all down.
12:24 - We can suspend your account
12:49 - Arbitration blah blah
13:31 - LibreDuino

Y no os quepa duda: llegará el día en que os dirán que todas las tecnologías de radio convencionales son “obsoletas” y que lo que toca es la radio por Internet o IP, que realmente no es radio, pero que estará bajo total control de los gobiernos de turno: medible, rastreable y filtrable por zona, por usuario y por criterio ideológico. Es aceptar perder privacidad, resiliencia y libertad de escucha a cambio de depender de servidores, plataformas y permisos que alguien puede apagar o censurar cuando le convenga. Ahí lo dejo. Tenemos ejemplos en la historia reciente. #privacidad #radio 📻
