Start with the bottled water, but coffee is fine, too.<br />I think beer should work, tho, even if vodka won’t.</p>

We have a small problem. All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them going again. I trust you are not in too much distress.«</p><p>Speedbird 9 did manage to re-start one of their engines. When you think there is a chance that will work, that’s something to try on the way down.<br />That may cost you glide range, so, maybe not if it takes you out of range of an airport.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> I&#39;ve seen some things on here from you about yosys and friends. Any pointers if I&#39;m gonna play with packaging these for Void Linux?</p>
<p>Just purchased some new FPGA toys... An iCESugar and a pico-ice.</p><p>I&#39;d like to finally play around with yosys and nextpnr. Looks like yosys is a bit old on Void, and there isn&#39;t a nextpnr package.</p><p>I&#39;m half tempted to go through the effort of packaging these for Void Linux so others can benefit.<br /><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/FPGA" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FPGA</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/yosys" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>yosys</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/icesugar" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>icesugar</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/pico_ice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pico_ice</span></a></p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> there was an aircraft disaster caused by a fire inside the aircraft - iirc a Swissair L-1011 with a faulty retrofitted in-flight entertainment system - where the laminated checklists were found all melted together, suggesting one of the crew tried to use them to beat out the flames</p>
