Have you bought an USB ISP programmer from China recently? I bet it’s not working, right. Good news, it can be fixed.

After the Amazon Unlimited storage fiasco I was still in need of cheap offsite storage for my backups. The Friendlyarm NASDock V1.2 excels in that field. It is dirt cheap and can handle large capacity disks. And if one isn’t enough, or when you want to spread the load a bit you can have more than one, at that price, who cares.
You can also turn it into a fully featured NAS if you want to. OK, for that price it can’t compete with a real Synology. But still it is quite a nice device.

It’s been a while since I’ve written a review. I guess I it’s because I don’t come across too many novelties lately.
The Mooshimeter is such a novelty. It’s a digital multimeter, without a display. At first this sounds counter productive, because what’s the use of a multimeter without a display? Not to worry though, because the Mooshimeter can do everything a normal multimeter can, and much, much more.
Here’s my review of my Mooshimeter.

I have found the limits of Amazon’s Unlimited Storage, the hard way. It appears they don’t like Open Source software. They simply terminate access to their systems through open source software, without prior warning.
So please be advised not to trust any of Amazon’s service because they may break your system or even your business whenever they feel like it. And they don’t even seem to listen to their customers.

Here's the reason why I will never be an Apple Fan Boy!

Here's another device from the past. This page explains the communication protocol of the Nokia Sat-Scan antenna rotor. Later the same rotors were equipped with the standardized Diseqc protocol, which makes them more useful on Non-Nokia receivers.
