So the APC UPS power pack’s USB port is not capable of providing stable current for both a Macbook and the Iphone, which was also connected to the USB Type-A port next to it. Good to know.
Something weird is happening to the new APC UPS - it has an USB Type-C port - but it seems that the power supply is a bit wonky.

Tillitis TKey
The Tillitis TKey, which I first wrote about in September last year,
is now available for sale at the the Tillitis webshop.
The TKey is a small bare-bones RISC-V computer in a USB stick form

and derives a deterministic secret every time the same app is started.
You can use it, for instance, as a security token to keep your private

It seems that mobile reception along German high-speed train routes has improved lately (at least compared to 2019).

Previous best: plugging a USB foot switch into the iPad to make it turn the page.
My USB power brick says to cycle the charge in it every so often, so I had it keep my iPad powered up away from any outlet. Fully drained it and plugged it in to a powered-off computer to recharge. Overnight, it’s only recharged…halfway. Didn’t expect the recharge to be this slow.
I need to bring my piratebox to my new job :) It wasn’t really exploited in the former one, it even got the USB stolen, but I love it and I want it used
so glad USB phone tethering exists. no way am I going to stumble through wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli to connect to coffeeshop wifi

@metamurks@www.metamurks.org that sucks. Hope the USB Dongle works out for you.
It seems like every time I reboot, Ubuntu manages to forget about another piece of hardware I have. First it was the USB controller, then the wifi (still not fixed), and now it’s my sound card.
