Congratulations on your first show.

We have something in common, as I also collect Raspberry Pi's, at least one from generation 1 to 5. :)

Welcome Elsbeth!

Thank you for sharing your introduction, and how you got where you are. It is sad that so many cyber jobs require a 4 year degree, when there are extremely skilled self-taught people ready and willing to be part of the solutions.

It is great to have you on HPR.

Hello, and welcome to our community.

For your interest in books, may I recommend the audio book club episodes.

Google cybersecurity certification sounds interesting. Even though I personally don't have experience in this field, there are people here that do, like operat0r.

Congratulations on your first show, and thank you for giving me credit for getting you to take the first step. I think you have many topics of interest to the HPR listeners. I would certainly like to hear more about your guix experiences, and org-d20. You home automation journey would also provide a rich seam of topics of great interest.

I look forward to your next show!

Hi, Sgoti! I thank you for coming, listening, and bringing your gentle and useful feedback!
Hug!

I still use AutoHotKey on windows 10, mostly for gaming and a few auto complete commands when web browsing. I'm not sure if I can still benefit from this tech, years later in my Linux journey, but I'll have a look at it for sure.
Thank you for the show, Sgoti.

I paused the episode to quickly run a backup of my data. Make certain you label that compact disc then store it in a sleeve; sounds like you may need it again. Thank you for the show.

I agree with Andrew regarding the sound transitions (mostly the first few sound transitions). Thank you for the show and I enjoy knowing the information provided is based on someones personal experiences. Reminds me of the good old days when one could request information from a person, a real human being, without creating an account and submitting a payment method first. Cheers, Sgoti.

Thank you for sharing your experience. TBH we are so guilty of doing things quickly, especially when they are tasks that we are quite familiar with. I'm so glad that you didn't corrupt the hard drive. Excellent pointers for anybody wishing to edit partitions.

The one thing that I always do is put the swap and boot partitions etc at the start of the drive and then have my root followed by the home. This means that if I need to resize then it doesn't need to move the partitions, this has been where I've had the majority of issues in the past.

It shows how much distros have changed over the years, Brasero used to be included with them all but nowadays the majority of computers come without optical drives.

Thanks for your first show.

There are a few show topics that would be of interest.
1. Elder Scrolls - basic idea of how to play (I am not a gamer)
2. More detail on org-d20
3. EXWM

Hello Antoine,

I was listening to the Community Show hpr4351, and Ken was right.
This would make a great show, or series of shows.

Audio setups are *definitely* of interest to hackers :)

One issue I have come across--probably do to the graying of my memory along with the graying of my beard--I have been using the keyfob to open the Yamiry lock for the last month and the other day I tried to use my pin code and apparently can't correctly remember it.
:)

Thank you for this review; I'm in a similar situation with some of my "roommates", and this might be a good compromise.

I will never understand people who complain about locked doors and physical keys!

Hi, Andrew! I thank you for the tip, I'll take it it account for any other future show! =) Hope you liked it.
Hug!

I need to sort out backups on my Jellyfin server, and this is useful information to help me sort it out. Thank you!

I loved the video. Thanks for sharing, Dave.

I'm not a musician, but I've always been fascinated by unusual musical instruments, including the Nyckelharpa.

YouTube just offered me a video about this instrument, so I thought I'd share it in case anyone else might like to see it.

Hi Antoine, I liked hearing about Brazil - Thank you! It's always interesting to hear about places from someone who has lived there.

Regarding the sound transitions, I'd suggest lowering the volume and fading them in/out to make them less jarring. However, they really aren't needed at all.

Thanks for your HPR show!

I was a fan of Zareason as well. Unfortunately, it is one of many businesses that disappeared due to the Covid pandemic.

Hi Klaatu, Cool to hear you back here! I am really missing my weekly GNU World Order. :)
Regards oxo

I just share a link which might be useful, but maybe you already know it.

Here's an open source tool for formal verification and SysML modeling called TTool, to check a software design always respects some constraints and safety guarantees you set, even before writing the code.
https://ttool.telecom-paris.fr/
Helps you detect deadlocks and make sure some error states are impossible to reach, or at least they're always handled in the safest possible way.

Said that, welcome to HPR!

The CPU runs in simulation, but it doesn't bootstrap itself and doesn't communicate with "real" peripherals (even if simulated).

When I on the technical side of this project (which also has administrative, legal, and fundraising sides), I presently work on the firmware loader, which needs to transfer firmware (lookup tables) from persistent storage into at least 22 SRAM ICs. There are also several initial conditions to force, such as the instruction pointer and other CPU state.

After the system can start itself in simulation, I will finish an already-started interface for peripherals. This will be via an SPI bus (I2C wil be supported also, but SPI is essentially a quorum anyhow).

Once all that is in place, then the fun work starts with power, bypass capacitors, "final" component placements, tracks, routing, connectors, plotting the board, mounting several hundred components, and---black smoke? White smoke?

Nicely done. Any home improvement project which only requires one trip to the hardware store is either supremely successful or not yet complete. :)

Thank you for sharing.

Hi, Ken! Thanks very much for the report on the study. Published this year, it is presented as "The first study in the world to look at school phone rules alongside measures of pupil health and education", at least peer-reviewed. So it's nice that we have a first conclusion on the topic.

As the law is recent in Brazil as a whole (states were already regulating it sparsely), *we only have perceptions of students and teachers, and specialists talk*, no "clear-data" studies; but I would bet one to be conducted here still 2025 or beginning of 2026, with data collected orderly and systematically. And then, when it comes, I'll try to remember to post that here, to share the (same or another) conclusion being outlined from another sources too. Thanks very much for contributing with my knowledge (in a subject I appreciate) and maybe other listeners of it too.

Hi Marc, Welcome to HPR, and thank you for your excellent first podcast. I actually came across your paper a few weeks back when someone posted a link on Mastodon. However, it was great to hear you explaining Dauug yourself. I see from the information on your website that you have a working emulator - are you planning a hardware build at some point (or have you already done it!)?

I very much look forward to your future podcasts!

I found this report from the BBC on a study by University of Birmingham saying "there is a lack of evidence to suggest banning phones in schools alone makes a difference when it comes to students’ grades, behaviour and wellbeing."

Thanks for going over your experiences with atuin! I've heard of this before, and checking it out is on my to do list.

I'd also be interested in self hosting the server side component, so your experience will be invaluable when I manage to try it out. Thanks for sharing your experience!

That's a good tip, Henrik. You can do this with both the Thumbnail and the Preview.

Thanks for sharing your GIMP tips!
I was also happy to hear that you also use digiKam, as I do.

When I do not want to edit with digiKam itself, I can right click on the thumbnail in digiKam to get a menu where there is an option "Open with", where I have GIMP, RawTherapee and more softwares listed.

Furthermore, I have added in the Main tool bar the button "Open with predefined sw", which in my case is RawTherapee.

Remark: I'm not sure I've translated the digiKam terms correctly into English.
