That looks great, much better than the original cardboard components

Nope, totally out of the loop on this one... Is he renaming Twitter?

What's the top image, is it some Microsoft x-windowing system?

Is there a plan to ever do that?

Lol, this one is great

This wouldn't work or make sense for cross posts in communities to have discussions specific to that community.

For example I run the !ancientcoincleaning@lemmy.world community. If a post from there is cross-posted in !ancientcoins@lemmy.world their discussions about the coin would be different (focused around numismatic interests as opposed to cleaning focused discussion). It wouldn't make sense for the comments to be merged.

I guess it's possible they like the taste... I like the smell of fireworks when so many people say they stink. We all like different things

My brain refuses to accept someone voluntarily drinks their own piss regularly when they have other options readily available... If someone actually does this please post an ama... I have so many questions

Not always, it really depends on what the person who did the board layout or wrote the firmware thought. When I do a board/firmware I label it from the devices perspective, so the TX is where the bits I'm transmitting will be coming out of, RX is where I'm expecting your bits to be sent to. Others label it from the perspective of the device connecting to it. So TX is where you connect the line your sending bits from. To me that's wierd because, to others it's what they expect. There is no standard and the result is you end up hooking it to an oscilloscope and see which line bits are being sent from. Then you use the scope to figure out all the settings. If they don't transmit in power up then... Frustration ensures

Don't forget trying to guess if the RX label is the line they transmit out of or you transmit to.

That's odd, we use "a wee bit *" in the USA too, not a terribly common colloquialism but still used. On second thought, maybe not lol. I do read a lot, perhaps I picked up my familiarity with the phrase from books.
