So using a wrong polishing cloth will damage that special surface, but not the inside of my pocket?

I don't even have anything worthwile on my gitea instance, and the same thing happened to me.

The only thing that ended up helping was disabling access for anonymous users.

Oh wow. I ran FreeCAD today to design a little block with 2 holes to 3D print - just a little spacer.

This did in in 2 messages, I'm impressed.

It's called DNSGlobe but it does not feature a globe, only a map :(

Not too far from the truth. The Flipper is good as a toy, but for serious RFID things you want a proxmark 3 clone with Iceman firmware ;)

I managed to get `pyvista` to render arbitrary 3D shapes directly to the terminal using kitty graphics. It's a giant hack, only way to make it performant is using shm.

Had a similar setup based on an Arduino, 3 hardware filters (highs/mids/lows) for audio and a serial connection. Serial was used to read the MIDI clock from a DJ software.

This allowed the device to count the beats, and since most modern EDM music is 4/4 that means you can trigger effects every time something "changes" in the music after synching once.

I wondered the same thing, but characters usually don't reach the edges, so I guess circles fit the average character better?

I believe you are referring to GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.

For tmux users: you can use the lock-command option with something like cmatrix for a quick and dirty screensaver.
