mhoyeHey, uh... is it expected that if I accidentally get 5V and Ground crossed on a usb port, it will reset the whole thing including the display?00:38
mhoye'cause I just did that. Didn't seem to let the smoke out of anything....00:39
joschmhoye: classic reform?00:40
josch(i know you have one but i don't know whether you have a pocket as well or not)00:41
mhoyeYeah, classic reform00:44
mhoyeI _think_ I might have let the smoke out of this FT232H in the process...00:46
joschthis happened to me a couple of times00:48
joschplugging in the wrong usb device can also take down the reform00:48
mhoyeYeah, I've got a degree of confidence that this wasn't the "righ" device...00:49
mhoyeright.00:50
mhoyeoh uh hmmm00:50
mhoyeso, wondering why one of my USB ports doesn't work, why I can't get HDMI to work, I just looked closely at the underside of this thing and there is _definitely_ some places here where I've blown a capacitor or two00:51
mhoyewelp.00:51
mhoyeTime to learn how to surface mount stuff I guess.00:51
minutemhoye: oh :/00:52
mhoyeNot to worry! 00:54
mhoyeI understand there's good documentation.00:54
mhoyeAnd I was planning a trip to the local parts shop anyway, just gotta figure out what I need.00:55

minutemade some improvements here to how wofi is launched, we should bring 'em to the three config files (sway, wayfire, waybar)15:50
minuteset $menu pgrep -x wofi >/dev/null 2>&1 && killall wofi || wofi --show drun -p Search -a -i -I -W 66% -H 66% -s $HOME/.config/wofi.css15:50
minutethis will make sure there's only one wofi window open / toggle the window. it disables the weird to navigate "actions" submenus (-a). it switches from "normal window" to xdg-shell ("-n" removed).15:51
chyou dont really need to pgrep first to decide to kill it15:54
minutech: for the toggle usecase you do15:54
chalso if you expect pgrep, you can also rely on pkill 15:54
minutei.e. i can press super-d again to close it, or click on the logo again to close it, which i've seen a bucnh of people do15:55
minute(who were then confused by another launcher opening)15:55
chwell yeah, but why check if its running15:55
chjust kill it?15:55
minuteah, let me see if that behaves in the same way15:55
minutefor toggling15:55
minute(i stole this from the web)15:56
chpkill -x wofi ; wofi ...15:56
ch(guessing there)15:56
minuteyes, that works15:56
minutethanks15:56
minutepkill -x wofi || wofi15:56
minutethis will toggle15:56
chah right15:57

mhoyeLooks like I need one five cent part.18:34
minutemhoye: nice18:45
mhoyeThis is when it's... juuuust a little embarassing? Gotta call some friends and get a group order to digikey in, I'm not ordering one minuscule five cent part. 18:47
mhoyeI wonder if there's room for me to replace the barrel jack....19:10
mhoyehaha, "while I'm in here, why don't I just..."19:11
mhoyeI didn't think repairing this thing would turn out to be more like renovating.19:11
mhoyeEnh, I was going to fix the taps, but now maybe I should re-do the sink, maybe add a little... wait 19:12
minutehehe19:14
mhoyeSo, I was looking for a way to get i2c out of a linux box, and I learned to my surprise that one way to do that is "cut down an HDMI cable", because there's an i2c connection hidden in HDMI that you can repurpose. 19:27
mhoyeWhich I thought was cool, but for now I'm going to buy a ten dollar usb breakout board instead.19:28
^alexmhoye, things like this are why we mourn the loss of Radio Shack and Frys :/19:29

minutejosch: yes i also noticed that :D20:42
