Excellent article.

If I could offer one correction, it would be that SBU (as specified by the USB 3.0 Promoter Group[1]) means "Sideband Use" rather than "Secondary Bus".

On some devices, it is used to carry UART; on others, audio.

Thank you for taking the time to report the issue. It has now been addressed.

Oh wow, thank you!

Their email address is under the Contact link in the header :)

There was a project a while back that attempted to do this, named “Dotsies”.

https://www.omniglot.com/conscripts/dotsies.htm (original site https://www.dotsies.org, which has a casual introduction text that slowly transitions into dots; however, it was unavailable at the time of writing.)

Three lines of text in 12-point font in the corner which can be covered by a window is hardly “the entire screen.”

They changed it recently.

Not the OP you responded too, but what the hell! I have not really used windows in a while but that's absurd. That text is massive just for an unsigned driver.

wow, didn't know about this, i developed some drivers and had this test mode enabled to debug some aspects of it, but now it is almost unusable with this on screen.

That's the same argument which ends win 90% of screen real estate covered in ads.

.git-blame-ignore-revs, while great, unfortunately belongs in the “Other Conventions” section.

If you configure your git client to use it, git blame will fail in any repository in which one is not present.

As of git 2.52, it's possible to use (:optional) to avoid errors in repositories that don't have this file https://stackoverflow.com/a/79824780

!! Thank you!

It appears to be in the fourth paragraph.

> As of November 14, 2025, Abbott has reported 736 serious injuries, and seven deaths associated with this issue.

I had always wondered if that happened because of a proliferation in folks named EionMusk.

tar.exe, however, beats both of those in terms of archive format support and speed.

It comes with Windows, and has since 2022! Alas, if you mean Windows 10 then you can use some DISM magic to add it to an install image.

The author of the post indicated that they are releasing an update to an existing game, which we can presume has the same executable filename.

I’ve noticed most of the replies to your comment address the first half, and none (as of right now) address the second:

> So the question that comes to my mind is whether this is yet further new and different Raspberry Pi 5 hardware that comes with no software or prospect of software.

If by “this” you mean the MicroSD Express hat from the article: this is a hobby project produced by a hobbyist, who seems to have no plans to sell or mass produce it.

It is unfair to the creator for you to lump it in with, and draw a conclusion from, the works produced by Raspberry Pi Holdings.
