Rockets also have active control via gimballing motors. Bicopters tilt their motors to control pitch and yaw, roll is still governed by motor speed.

I was arguing against the COG of the payload, not of the existence of bicopters entirely.

Sorry, I wasn't arguing against bicopters being possible, obviously something like the osprey exists.

> the air resistance of swinging back and fourth really does help dampen oscillations passively

But they don't swing back and forth like a pendulum (unless your PIDs are off) because of the center of mass, that is the entire issue with the fallacy.

Love the energy with "i decided to just go for it.". The soldering to the touchpad is absolutely frightful, but you know what? First time soldering (to small testpoints no less), it works, it can always be fixed later if the joints fail. I've been getting too caught up in perfection with my recent projects, it's a good reminder that with a userbase of 1, it really doesn't matter.

Whoah, that is super impressive. My target binary is 9MiB, seemingly only 10k relocations IIRC but 37k functions.

I might try a partial delink and see how it goes!

Easily one of the coolest RE projects out there, I've always looked on in awe.

> The relocation table synthesizer analyzer relies on a fully populated Ghidra database (with correctly declared symbols, data types and references) in order to work

It's a shame that this requirement exists (I am well aware that it's a functional necessity), because all the stuff I want to relink is far too big to make a full db!

My partial solution is to look a bit silly and shove the utensil in my mouth while I walk around setting up the meal (finding a seat, opening the package etc). Wetting the eating surface with your saliva for ~30-60 seconds helps a lot.

I think the parent commenter is perhaps a little over-selling the LG rooting. It is definitely root, you can write whatever you want on the filesystem (at your peril), and theoretically do whatever you want, but the homebrew exploit launches a bit later in the boot chain than you'd want (so blocking update nags isn't quite reliable), and a lot of the inner system things are proprietary and require reverse engineering to extend.

It's the same system software, just with root capacity.

That being said, there's still a bunch of nice homebrew:

- Video screensavers ala Apple TV

- DVD logo screensaver

- Adfree (and sponsorblock-integrated and optional shorts-disabling) Youtube

- Remote button remapping (Netflix button now opens Plex for me)

- Hyperion (ambilight service that controls an LED strip behind the TV)

- A nice nvidia shield emulator for game streaming from my PC with low latency

- VNC server (rarely useful, but invaluable when it is)

Sponsorblock and remote remapping are killer features for me, and the rest is just really pleasant to have.

The one-click method has been patched, but there are other methods that will work if you haven't been religiously updating your TV:

As per the name, it's Din Don Dan [1], from Konami's DDR (and included in other rhythm games by them). This is specifically the performance from DanEvo [2].

This particular version became popular from a guy absolutely killing it despite appearances [3], but personally I like this one [4] because it shows how you can dance to look good, or dance to score well.

This is what happens when you run your blog behind cloudflare workers - they want you on pages instead, or to pay $5/month forever on the off chance you get slashdotted...
