Nah that's not fair. The misinformation campaign was huge. On all platforms, IRL advertisements and all over the mainstream media. It's so hard not to fall for misinformation especially if it confirms biases already present.
A lot of people didn't even know what they were voting on. It's disgusting the way it went down and hard not to hold the people who voted a certain way responsible.
But I mostly blame the corrupt politicians and the massive misinformation campaign, partially funded and run by Russia. Like how do you go from a non-binding referendum to brexit? It makes no sense. Those assholes who went like "The people have spoken" should be shot for their crimes.
Ever since brexit you see right politicians push for more referendums all over Europe. It's so easy to influence people to vote a certain way. And with a referendum you can point to the people who have voted, so it all looks above board.
Fuck those fucking archer Black Knights, how unfair can you get. And then you rush to kick their asses and the stupid hitbox shoves you off the ledge. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu........
Why can't we live in the dumb timeline where Twitch chat plays US Government? They rename the station to "PENIS STATION <3". but then gift a bunch of money so the station actually gets overhauled and better than ever, so everyone accepts the name.
This timeline sucks.
If you haven't played Hollow Knight, pick this up right now!
Don't look anything up, don't let yourself get spoiled. Just go in and let yourself be immersed in the world of Hollow Knight. It can be confusing and frustrating at points, but just hang in there and keep going.
This takes me back to some very good memories, thanks!
My favorite René et Gaston track is Vallée De L'Armes, so good!

Yes create a Windows stick and boot from that. But that's a lot of work, just create a Windows setup stick and install it. Installing Windows and running some tests should take less than an hour and can save you a lot of headache. You can download the ISO directly from Microsoft and you don't need a license for some simple testing like this.
Temperatures read out in software can be very unreliable. The software might say it's perfectly fine and the thing still throttles because some part of the chip gets too hot.
Cleaning it out and re-doing the paste is my go to for any refurbishment on old laptops. Unless it's something weird like liquid metal or something, it's usually very easy and quick to do. And even if it isn't strictly needed, it usually helps.
The CPU speed crashing like that seems like thermal throttling maybe? Any idea on the temperatures? Clean out the vents and redo the thermal paste?
8550U isn't like fast, but is isn't super slow either.
I would also suggest for debugging purposes to re-check on Windows. You can go crazy chasing down a software issue when it's hardware and vice versa. Using a wildly different software stack can point you in the right direction. If the problem persists, it's most likely hardware related.
They are very good indeed. I love the taste of sour in candy, but since I'm an old man my stomach can't take it.

Cola is a bit harder than the bears tho. The bears are like silk, very soft and bouncy and melt in your mouth.
Why yes I do have a bag of bears in front of me right now. I know it says Share size, but this is my bag. Get your own bag if you want some.
Yeah I always laugh when movies or TV portrait a character being good at strategy by depicting them being good at chess. Those two have zero relation. Total war on the other hand, get good at that and you're cracked at strategy
The battery that does the driving is completely different from the battery that does the rest of the stuff in the car. So whilst it sounds funny, it's actually correct.
This is not a unique Tesla thing BTW, I think all electric cars work like that. The battery that does the driving has very different requirements, so keeping them separated is the best solution.
What is pretty shit from Tesla is the regular battery dying all the time. That's a pretty unique Tesla issue.

It's hard to get my big proper scope on some stuff, like when repairing something big like a washing machine. So this tiny scope is excellent and just fine for reading slow TTL signals like that. I got mine for around 50 euro, but prices vary depending on where you live and if you get a deal, plus shipping times vary a lot as well.
I would recommend this over a logic analyser because usually with a logic analyser you need to know what kind of signal it is, which you might not know. With a scope you can simply read the signal, figure out what the signal is and then go and decode it if you think it's useful. For example if its just TTL serial data, but with a level shift, you can fix that and connect it to a laptop or something.
But there is a big chance there is absolutely nothing on the serial port. It might just be to run some automated tests in the factory, or a leftover bit on the PCB for debugging boards during development. Sometimes it's more expensive to have a board partner redo their lines than just pay the fraction of a cent to include a connector. If there is something on there, the scope will show what it is.
Do you have a scope available to check out the signal on these pins? If you don't I would recommend getting one to debug shit. Something simple and cheap like one of those handheld Chinese multimeter/scope combos are perfect for something like this.
You can also try to directly read the eeprom and see if you can make anything of that, if it's an I2C eeprom you can easily tap into that with something like an Arduino if you don't have the right equipment to directly read it. However in my experience it's hard to make any sense of the data in the eeprom without the source code. And Beko probably had the code burned into the microcontroller directly, with no way to get it out.
I agree it's total BS manufacturers don't release their source code and schematics for stuff like this. Like nobody can do anything with that except repair shit.
Top down view racing game
I've played a demo of this game or a Shareware version, I never had the full game. It was on one of those 1000 shareware games CDs. It's a top down racing game with a gritty sort of vibe, a bit dark. As you raced there were pickups and bonus items and I'm pretty sure you could fire weapons at other racers. It was a single player game. It was top down in that semi 3D kind of way, but I think the cars were meant as full sized cars, not a micro machines kind of thing.
The one unique feature that never let me pinpoint exactly what game it was, was this very specific sound effect when getting a certain pick up. A voice would say "Booster", but it was pronounced more like "Boostah".
There were jumps on the game and one way to kill other racers was to jump on top of them. I think the track had multiple routes you could take.
I think because of the shareware version I had I only had one track, which was kinda dark, like maybe a cave. And the surroundings were rocks. I think there were als

Since we're posting cats, this is Pyxel
She died about 10 years ago. I love and have loved all the pets I've ever had, but Pyxel was something special. She was very headstrong and did whatever she felt like, getting pissed off if you did something she didn't like. But when she was in the mood she would be the sweetest thing in the world.
She was saved from the dumpster, along with her mother and brother. The mother had to be put down and a lot of the brothers and sisters didn't make it from being dumped in a trash bag. But Pyxel and her brother made it and we adopted them from the rescue when they were very young still.
I remember Pyxel sleeping for hours in my lap, or in the cat bed on my desk. When I was working from home, she slept in the cat bed, till she got fed up, went for a drink and a snack only to get back and jump in my lap because it was her time and she would let me know it.
Still miss her every day.

Rescued old CRT I put a lot of work in. Was totally dead when I got it, rescued it to be almost perfect again.
It still has an intermittent horizontal size issue and the power button has some cosmetic wear. But at least the power button works, it used to only work when you would hold it down.
Be sure to enable the audio for some good retro tunes coming from the monitor.
