hahaaha. if you search for banana plugs (i.e. for electronics work / prototyping or testing) not for speaker cables, of course 95% of the results are "gold plated extra clear hi-fi" etc ones. some go as far as to add stupid graphics like this:

few cool new additions to my dotfiles/zsh setup. fzfind is an alias for fzf(1) / find(1) fuzzing finder with F1 & F1 function keys as vim file open, clipboard copy or "open" on enter press (OSX specific, but can be changed, I detect OS/userland change such specifics) gist.github.com/azet/ad99ad5...

what's your favorite tmux & zsh package/plugin manager? few seem to be long term maintained projects. zsh: znap & zplug. tmux: TPM. what else to consider? pros/cons? been thinking switching from znap to zplug due to specifics that can be chosen within not "only" modules of a plugin. already great!

on that note: landed on tmuxinator as a session manager with fzf and tons of bindings. what do you prefer?

cli utils for networking [most you got in your GNU userland already, but check you have an updated version of mtr(1)]. will serve to solve almost all routing issues you can think off from a linux/junos/frr machine. did you know MTR shows MPLS labels, ASNs + much more (nevermind nettop,stat & lsof)?

TIL: "TempleOS is a biblical-themed lightweight operating system (OS) designed to be the Third Temple from the Hebrew Bible ... was created by American computer programmer Terry A. Davis, who developed it alone after ... a series of manic episodes ... later described as a revelation from God. "

for those who haven't been folllowing on chaos.social or facebook (I understand, believe me!). We have been working on our own analog audio designs, from SMT PCBs, soldering & modding clones of classic console pre-amps, EQs and compressors to modding existing gear/kits. check secondorderharmonics.eu

There's a patreon we're working on as it makes much more sense for posts than our website (which will mirror). An option for early access to Open Hardware projects that are still in development/early test runs. All info & posts will be open/public domain, some products only after 12/18mo. (R&D cost)

some of our work the past week getting everything ready for modding and soldering more neve and API clones, getting PCBs manfactured and panelized and then SMT (where possible) for our own API2520 and JE-990 clones. in support of the 500 series/GroupDIY community & upcoming projects (top secret :))

A Robust Variant of ChaCha20-Poly1305: ia.cr/2025/222 "We present a new nonce-misuse resistant and key-committing authenticated encryption scheme, called ChaCha20-Poly1305-PSIV, that is based on carefully combining the ChaCha20-Poly1305 [...] into the NSIV paradigm [...] without performance loss."

TIL: so many tuns, tons, tonnes! "Recent specialized uses include the ton as a means of truck classification. It can also be used as a unit of energy, or in refrigeration as a unit of power, sometimes called a ton of refrigeration." see also: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ton_of_...
