TIL USB Type C management ICs have a "dead battery mode".

USB Power Delivery requires that the source and sink chat over the port's configuration channel to negotiate the voltage and power to deliver on VBUS. But that requires the downstream battery-powered device to be sufficiently on to run that negotiation.

IOW, if the battery powered device depletes its battery and the USB management IC loses power, when you plug a charger into the USB port, there's nobody there for the power source to talk to, electrically it looks like the cable isn't connected to anything. And so per the spec, the source provides none volts on VBUS in that condition. Your device really needs power, but it can't ask for power until it has power, and until then it looks to the charger like it's not even there.

You don't need to implement USB PD to be a USB device. Instead, you can place some resistors across a couple of the port's lines, which signals to the upstream device that yes, there is a device connected, and no, it doesn't support USB-PD negotiation and you should just supply the default 5V/3A on VBUS.

Dead battery mode is a trivial dead man's switch: the USB-PD management chip has an input signal, that it expects the local CPU/MCU to hold at logic high to show that it's alive. While the signal is high, the configuration channel lines are passed through to the processor, which handles the handshaking and negotiating.

But if that lifeline signal goes low, or the USB-PD chip itself loses power, then the configuration channel gets disconnected from the local CPU, and the standard "5V/3A please" signal resistors get connected instead. With that, the next time you plug the device in, it'll get the default 5V/3A, and can use that to boot up the USB-PD management silicon, flick the switch again to get control of the configuration channel, and do the negotiation to ask for more power.

Given how much the datasheets tout this feature, I presume it wasn't there in the first generation of USB-PD ICs, and that's how we got a rash of battery-powered devices that die unrecoverably if you let them discharge completely.

I guess technically you could also do the jump-start through the USB port, you just have to violate the spec and blindly supply 5V/3A on VBUS even if the sense resistors aren't there. Just long enough for sense resistors and/or configuration channel traffic to show up, then you can go back to obeying the spec.

... Come to think of it I expect aliexpress has a little cottage industry of boards that let you do exactly that...

Sebastian Krzyszkowiak

Two slight corrections: you can't ask for "standard 5V/3A", you only ask for 5V. The available current is advertised by the source with Rp (which has 3 options: either USB standard 100/150/500/900mA, 1.5A or 3A), the device does not ask for it.

Also, providing 5V on VBUS without Rd on CC does not violate the spec. USB-C sockets are not supposed to do that, but plugs can. Otherwise USB A to C cables would be illegal.

🔴 Je demande le passage sécurisé du navire humanitaire Freedom Flotilla ⛵
🔴 Je demande la fin du blocus et justice pour Gaza.

#FreedomFlotilla #SafePassageNow
#palestine #gaza #Madleen
#France #elysee

⛵🕊️ 🇵🇸


Le Madleen, navire humanitaire de la Freedom Flotilla Coalition, transporte des médicaments, de la nourriture et des produits pour bébés vers Gaza, où l’aide humanitaire ne rentre plus depuis le 2 mars. Plus de 90 % de la population connaît la famine.

À bord : 12 humanitaires et militant•es pacifistes, dont l’eurodéputée #RimaHassan et l’activiste #GretaThunberg

Alors que la Flottille approche de Gaza, les risques d’attaque ou de détention illégale par Israël s’intensifient. De précédents navires ont été attaqués par Israël causant des morts, des blessés ou encore la destruction du bateau.

10 expert•es de l’ONU ont appelé le 2 juin à garantir un passage sûr, rappelant que cette mission est légale et conforme au droit international.

🎯 Cette campagne vise à interpeller les gouvernements des pays dont sont originaires les membres de l’équipage et aux larges desquels le navire passera dans les prochains jours (France, Suède, Allemagne, Espagne, Brésil, Turquie, Pays-Bas, Grèce, Egypte) pour exiger :

  • Un passage sécurisé pour le navire
  • L’entrée sans entraves de l’aide humanitaire à Gaza
  • Le respect du droit international par Israël

Mobilisons-nous dès maintenant en envoyant des courriels aux autorités concernées ainsi qu’en les interpellant publiquement !

Plus nous amplifions ce message, plus nous contribuons à protéger la mission et l’équipage à bord ! 🛡️ ⛵

Les experts de l'ONU ont exigé un passage sûr pour le navire de la Coalition de la Flottille de la Liberté, Madleen ohchr.org/en/press-releases/20…

893 277 personnes ont envoyé une lettre au gouvernement israélien actionnetwork.org/letters/form… un avertissement aux dirigeants politiques et militaires israéliens. Nous les mettons en garde : tout préjudice causé aux #Madleen ou à ses volontaires sera considéré comme une grave violation du droit international.

Modèle de lettre dans ALT

#FreedomFlotilla #gaza

Modèle de lettre : « Le navire n'est pas armé, ne représente aucune menace conformément au droit international maritime, humanitaire et des droits de l'homme. Ses passagers et son équipage comprennent des parlementaires, des journalistes, des avocats et des défenseurs des droits de l'homme représentant la société civile mondiale. Toute interception, attaque, sabotage ou ingérence envers les Madleen ou ses passagers et équipage civils constitueront une attaque délibérée, consciente et illégale contre des civils et une violation du droit international. De telles actions constitueraient des violations graves de la quatrième Convention de Genève et pourraient constituer des crimes de guerre en vertu du Statut de Rome de la Cour pénale internationale ».

#Landwirt bedauert #Klimawandel durch „zu extreme Sonneneinstrahlung”.


Ein klares Versagen der Chefs vom Dienst: #Klima darf nur menschengemacht sein, weil dies die #Rechtfertigung der #Degrowth - #Politik ist.

Hintergrund: Man lasse sich folgendes Zitat von #Rahmstorf und #Schellnhuber auf der Zunge zergehen:

„Das insgesamt wichtigste #Treibhausgas ist der Wasserdampf. Er taucht in der obigen Diskussion nur deshalb nicht auf, weil der Mensch seine Konzentration nicht direkt verändern kann.“


Der #Wasserdampf (1% der Atmposphäre) hat also Glück gehabt, dass der Mensch nichts gegen ihn tun kann. Sonst würde er besteuert statt des Spurengases CO2 (0,04%). Auch Sonne, Vulkane und Meere dürfen keinesfalls etwas mit Klimaänderungen zu tun haben.

Nach Ende des #Impfzwangs und gleichauf mit Krieg ist #CO2 - #Ablasshandel schließlich das profitabelste Geschäft der Welt. Siehe hierzu meine neue Sendung

Celebrity Age Revealed

Within our present high-speed digital landscape, we see an irrefutable fixation with the lives of famous people. Including cinema launches and best-selling albums to candid interviews and digital shares, fans are always looking for extra facts about their favorite celebrities. Most commonly looked up themes are famous people’s backgrounds and their birth years. These pieces of information not only fulfill inquisitiveness but also allow admirers to form a stronger bond with the celebrities they idolize.

A famous person’s profile is beyond being a list of accomplishments. It’s a glimpse of someone’s life path and career trajectory. When readers look up a public figure’s biography, they’re not just seeking to know where someone was from or what roles they’ve played. They want to understand the struggles, key moments, and defining moments that influenced the human behind the spotlight. For instance, discovering Zendaya’s journey from Disney Channel star to renowned actress and fashion figure adds context and inspiration to her success. Her profile doesn’t just list her achievements, but her approach to reaching those goals.

Years of life is a commonly queried point, and not just for mere curiosity. It often functions as a source of empowerment. When someone observes a young actress Millie Bobby Brown making it big as a teenager, it offers hope to ambitious youth. On the other hand, watching seasoned stars like Keanu Reeves dominate major film roles well into middle age proves that creativity and ability persist over time. Looking up celebrity ages give insight into the timing of their career path, highlighting the phases of their fame and how they’ve developed through the years.

Celebrity age usually consist of a comprehensive variety of private and career-related information. They usually commence with the person’s full name, date of birth, and birthplace. Afterwards, fans regularly are interested in the public figure’s childhood, domestic life, and their initial entry into the field. As their work develops, key achievements such as famous roles, awards, commercial endeavors, and charitable activities are often noted. Many also appreciate details on a star’s private affairs, such as their romantic involvements, interests, and even quirky interests that add human dimension. These biographies commonly feature hidden tidbits or interesting details that engage readers and deepen a star’s persona.

In a age where fake news can propagate swiftly, the value of credible and confirmed celebrity bios cannot be undervalued. Reliable platforms like the IMDb database, Variety magazine, and updated Wikipedia pages are regularly the main points of reference for reliable details. Whether you’re writing for a blog, media portal, or dedicated community page, it’s essential to regularly update content to display the fresh and reliable data about a celebrity’s age, latest endeavors, or personal milestones. The showbiz world changes swiftly, and present hearsay can easily evolve into trending topics, making timely updates a important factor of maintaining trust with readers.

Specific public figures generate ongoing interest when it comes to their profiles. Singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, for example, commands interest for her music, private affairs, and financial intelligence. Followers are always interested to learn about her evolving reputation and occupational progress.

Hollywood star Timothée Chalamet has ignited buzz thanks to his artistic background and quick ascent in the film industry. Pop icon Rihanna’s journey from singer to businesswoman and parent offers a layered and captivating story. Thor star Chris Hemsworth’s transformation into a international blockbuster actor and his real-world persona also keep fans clicking on his fresh developments.

Ultimately, public figures are more than entertainment icons. Their biographies demonstrate determination, grit, and originality. Whether someone is noticing a famous figure for the beginning, or watching their evolution for years, a carefully crafted biography and accurate personal facts link between notoriety and authentic experience.

Readers want depth beyond news—they want stories, value, and a purpose to engage. By crafting material that expresses the soul of who these public figures really are, you not only satisfy interest but establish a strong bond between stars and the public.

A June 2023 study discovered Fanzors, CRISPR-like DNA-snippers in eukaryotes, including fungi, algae, amoebae, and a clam.

Fanzor is smaller than Cas enzymes, making it a potential fit for smaller viruses for delivery to cells. However, it may have a disadvantage in cutting multiple identical sites in a genome.

CRISPR-Cas systems work well in most organisms, but Fanzor might be useful for scientists working with certain bacteria where Cas enzymes are toxic.

This Linux laptop is a beast - Juno Computers Neptune 15 First Impressions

I received this beast on tuesday. It's made by a company you might not have heard of, called Juno computers. They operate ouf of London, and much like Slimbook or Tuxedo, they offer laptops based on Clevo designs, as well as desktops.

Disclaimer: I haven't received any money for this video, and I don't get to keep the laptop either, so be nice ;)

The Linux Experiment merch: get your goodies there! teespring.com/en-GB/stores/the…

This one here is the Neptune 15. It's a 15.6'' laptop, with a full HD IPS panel, running at 144hz. It's all made out of black aluminium, and it's pretty lightweight for the power it packs: 4.4 pounds, or 2 kilos, for a 10th gen intel core i7 CPU, with 8 cores and 16 threads, an RTX 2060 with 6gb of memory, and 16gb of RAM. My test unit came with 256Gb of SSD, but you can actually configure that up: it can go up to and RTX2080 Super Max-Q, 64Gb of RAM, and 4Tb of storage.

They have multiple keyboard options, mine came with as US qwerty keyboard, but you could get a bunch of other layouts as well.

The I/O is pretty excellent. On the left side, you've got a micro SD card slot, a USB A port, a headset and a microphone jack. On the right side, you have 2 more USB A, and an ethernet port

And on the back, a minidisplay port, an HDMI port, the plug for the barrel charger, and a thunderbolt 3 port for data, not charging. It didn't seem to be recognized by GNOME though, but maybe it only activates with something plugged in.

Now that it's out of the box, and I had a few days to play around with it, here are some first impressions.

First, that panel. It's good. It doesn't go ultra bright, but it's matte, so basically no reflections whatsoever. And that 144hz refresh rate is simply amazing. I didn't think this mattered at all, but after using it for a few hours each day, going back to my 60hz displays on my desktop was a bit of a shock. It really does make a difference.
The viewing angles are fantastic as well, with no loss of color, or color shifting.

The webcam is pretty standard, at 720p, nothing special, you won't look like a potato during your video conferences, but it's nothing to write home about.

I thought maybe the power button would double as a fingerprint scanner, but it doesn't seem to be the case, but you still get a full size keyboard, with number pad, and, more importantly for some people, RGB. You can tweak the backlight to whatever color you want, and Juno Computers included a small utility in the top bar to let you tweak that.

By the way, another utility allows you to change the fan speed if you want, and switch profiles between the intel, or nvidia card, with an "nvidia on demand mode", which pairs well with GNOME's ability to open apps using the dedicated GPU.

Other than that, the Ubuntu install is a pretty much stock OEM install of 20.04, with the latest Nvidia drivers included as well.

The build quality is very nice, thanks to the aluminium, we'll have to see if the black texture doesn't scratch off too easily after a few more weeks of use. The screen hinge is pretty sturdy, and doesn't wobble much.

There is a bit of give around the keyboard when you type, and you'll definitely see it, but the keys feel good as well, good amount of travel, and satisfying, muffled sound. It lacks a bit of bounceback for my taste, but it's still pretty good. There is also some amount of flex on the back of the panel, but that's not somewhere where you'll be pressing most of the time, so it's not worrying.

Now, the windows key here, I could have done without. Building a Linux computer means selling it to Linux guys, and making the extra effort to remove that key and replace it by something else, a SUPER logo, or a Juno computers logo, or an Ubuntu logo even, would have been cool.

Now the trackpad seems excellent. It's super smooth, very precise, it really glides super well. Once I got some gestures set up in there, it's going to be a dream. Only problem: this 2 button layout. I've gotten used to a clicky trackpad, where two finger clicking does a right click, and going back to that seems a bit old school for me, but I'm sure some people will see this as an advantage.

It's a dream gaming laptop: beautiful without too much in the way of GAMER LOOKZ, apart from the RGB in the keyboard, and since the panel goes only to 1080p, the RTX2060 or up is largely enough to run at 144Hz and make sure you have a super smooth gaming experience.
