I suppose I should probably kick off the discussion with a question. What do you think is the most privacy respecting web browser that still maintains the vales of the FOSS movement?
Tonight's fun evening project: synthesizing 74-series discrete logic circuitry from verilog code with #yosys and 74xx-liberty:

Amazing!
libtorrent merged support for #WebTorrent enabling BitTorrent over WebSockets
Great news for scalable video distribution without being locked into centralised hosting services.

Lots of exciting updates for the LKV373A project!
The #blender tracker/stabilizer features take a little time to get the hang of, but the results are extremely pleasing

Ok, I'm seriously impressed with Blender's 3D camera tracking. I think this will come in very handy for illustrating things in the future

More on hacking the IT9919. This time I'm digging into the firmware to see if I can manipulate the device behaviour

From Google’s treatment of competing search companies in its results, to Facebook’s playing favorites with its developer APIs, to big ISPs' quest to charge websites to reach you, monopoly power and its abuses has been on vivid display this year. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/12/2018-review-wrangling-monopolies
Today's favorite method of electronics prototyping: Pad Board + Wrapping Wire + SMT Discretes.
Works quite well for simple builds. Reasonable density. Better than strip-board.
PCBs are better of course, but incremental changes are far more painful.
