Today I am stepping down from my role as the CEO of #mastodon. Though this has been in the works for a while, I can't say I've fully processed how I feel about it. There is a bittersweet part to it, and I think I will miss it, but it also felt necessary. It feels like a goodbye, but it isn't—I […]

Compiled and flashed coreboot + edk onto this ThinkCentre M700 Tiny! It works great and now opens up the possibilities for some “interesting” CPU upgrades.

always very satisfying to USB-C mod something (even if it is as simple as a Type C to barrel plug cable like this!)
Also if you also happen to have a Panasonic Let's Note, I can confirm a 15v USB PD to 5.5mm OD / 2.5mm ID barrel cable works great (even if the original adapter is 16v).
