#basic mcu configuration

[raccoonfallsharder]

you made a post that talked about how space probably has different interpretations of the color pink than earth does, and was wondering on your opinion; do you think the galaxy views being trans or gay in a different light than earth?

hey babe. you ask an EXCELLENT question and i really appreciate you asking it here. i feel like for some people, this could be a really vulnerable question to pose — and if that’s you, i want to thank you extra hard for taking the risk of putting it into this space. i actually have VERY strong feelings about this and i try to infuse it in almost every fic i write (with varying levels of success). and on that note, i apologize for the novel I’m about to inflict on you.

the short answer is that i think most members of the intergalactic community have just come to naturally accept that there are countless genders and sexes and orientations and approaches to sexual congress and reproduction and relationships throughout the universe. like. we know groot reproduces asexually. kronans (in the two most recent thor movies) all seem to identify as men and reproduce with a partner by joining hands and standing in hot lava for three days (and i think we’re meant to take that literally). pete’s dated an a’askvariian and i feel pretty confident that while she was referred to as “female” she probably does not have a genital configuration that is a 1:1 match for anything human. i think of the biodiversity on earth — all the ways that lifeforms present, the different ways they reproduce and engage sexually (or don’t) — then i multiple that by infinity.

and as a result, i just can’t imagine that most of the intergalactic community has difficulty rolling with the concept of transitioning or fluidity or various orientations. i bet almost all of them have had at least one long- or short-term relationship with at least one individual who doesn’t match ANY gender construct indigenous to their own home-planet.

(as an aside, this is also one of the many reasons i don’t buy into any form of bodyshaming from our spacefaring marvel/mcu friends.)

now, there are probably still peoples that are more isolated and carry a lot of strong biases based on whatever passes for “acceptable” on their own planets, and carry those biases into space and are shitbags about it. but in general, i wholeheartedly believe there is not a word a person could use to describe themselves or their sexuality that the average space-traveler would so much as blink at. (i am operating under the assumption that there are also intergalactically-recognized standards and expectations around consent, too. while the universe is not perfect, we know from the comics that it’s generally considered more progressive than earth.)

my personal headcanons:

rocket is pan as hell and open to pretty much all body-types and genders and yeah, that includes ones that aren’t humanoid or based on earth-animals. while he’s shown as particularly appealing to feminine-presenting humanoid characters in the comics, his appreciation for different body types is well documented and i personally always try to point out that (imo) the comic-term “space princesses” includes a lot of (all?) genders. (i headcanon “space princesses” indicates a vibe, not a gender lol).

i usually write rocket as having a dick and referring to himself as a guy but that’s about as far as i go with assigning him a gender. would one thousand percent buy him as trans (i headcanon him as trans in rivals).

nebula is a thousand percent in a romantic/sexual relationship with mantis. i usually write her with she/her pronouns but will throw in someone calling her “mister nebula” when honorifics are used, and sometimes i also toy with the idea that nebula and mantis are in a throuple with kraglin who’s basically their platonic housewife. (if I hadn’t hyperfixated on rocket so hard, i’d have an enormous crush on nebs.)

speaking of krags, i’m pretty sure the canon implies that he’s got like eight wives on other planets and there’s a deleted scene where he basically proposes to Nebs. i like to think this is a common ravager thing (and not necessarily motivated by sex as much as companionship and convenience), but that krags in particular keeps in touch with all his wives, even when he never sees them again. i think he’s such a romantic at heart, but not particularly motivated by or even interested in sex.

i don’t care much about pete as a character but that guy’s pan too.

while i tend to write rocket with an f!oc or f!reader (in my smut specifically), i try to make it clear that he’s not gender-discriminating. the most recent chapter in cicatrix describes a conversation that rocket has with a former sexual partner who uses he/him pronouns. in the holiday gun show, there’s a brief reference to him being with a cyborg with a vibrating dick. in windfall, he implies having a pretty expansive library of experience with lots of different kind of genitalia lol. and there’s the countless references in tons of my fics to “space princesses of all genders.” i firmly believe that rocket is into a lot of different types and genders. that said , i do think it’s funny to occasionally write the intergalactic community being shocked by something like oral sex.

♡ thank you again for asking this question, nonnie. because it’s fascinating to me, because i love an opportunity to go on a fucken ninety-page rant about space-culture-headcanons, and because as i said before — for some people, this question can be really risky to ask when you’re uncertain of the answer.

anyway. that’s my perspective on gender and sexuality in the wider universe. i wish our own planet was on the same page.

(and i’m not giving up on that.)

[nocturnal-phantoms-fandoms]

C A T for the ask game please hehe 😻

Cat!! My dearest Shrutual <3333

(Im going to answer alphabetically. Also this got so long omg)

A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.

I do have OTPs :D wolfstar and stucky (also previously: klance but im not into them as much anymore)

I even have a meme for this occasion:

other ships from the marauders fandom:

wolfstarbucks <333 wolfbucks and prongsfoot are alright too but not in the long run, I think I prefer them as a trio (everyone is there and all is well and everyone is happy. I get sad when R isnt there and im worried about S's whereabouts when he isnt there, so. Trio)

jily - i wouldnt call myself a jily shipper per se, but its also very dear to me <3333. Would choose a fic with them as a supporting ship over alternatives when reading r/s , thats for sure.

james & sirius friendship but also remus & james friendship!!

basically... sirius and remus and sometimes james an lily. in any configuration at this point

(there are other ships I like from hp, mcu and other fandoms but im not into them that much at this very moment)

C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will.

Oh boy. Do I have to choose just one?

Stony.

... Ok that wasnt that hard.

I dont like Tony, I dont care about him, I dont like their relationship we saw in the films (tho i havent read the comics so im judging just the films), Im not into enemies to lovers, there is nothing for me there. zero, zip, nada.

T - Do you have any hard and fast headcanons that you will die defending?

Thats a really hard question bc apart from fighting "mainstream" fanon with canon info i dont think im that invested about most headcanons? so, i will try. i will not elaborate tho.

if sirius was into any muggle subculture it would be punk

black brothers weren't tortured with cruciatus every other day for any minor inconvenience they caused. sirius was abused psychologically and emotionally and until the last second walburga hoped he would come back and take the role of the heir he was supposed to.

regulus wasnt forced into becoming a DE, but he did it bc he wanted to prove himself

alphard was gay and had muggle lover(s)

sirius would become a curse breaker, a social worker, an activist, a mechanic or an engineer or something like that. idk why but i dont like it when he's a healer/doctor. However I can see sirius joining the aurors with james, but i think he would resign not long after finishing training when he realises he cant fix the system from the inside. idk if james would resign tho.

if we assume that the marauders form a pack, its not remus who is the alpha, even while in wolf form

the last one im adding just bc i saw a post about it right before i started answering this ask: the full moon doesnt make remus horny. its a traumatic experience for him and he associates it with everything he fears - pain and loosing control. for a few days before the full he feels sick and weak and he hates everything and sirius has to fight tooth and nail to just get him under a blanket for a cuddle. right after the full he is exhausted and in pain. the further from the full the easier it is to get him in the mood, basically. (i feel like im the only one. at least on this one post every response was the opposite. i read just one ff with a similar thing - where its the new moon that makes werewolves horny.) i am not opposed to remus being horny right after the full tho

las one I just remembered: the hogwarts express has more than two stops. for gods sake. those kids arent travelling to London from Edinburgh just to spend the whole day on the train on the way back. (check out this map) all of the stations have platforms like 3 ⅓, 2 ⅚ and so on of course.

【step by step】Easyi3C Host I3C adapter (1)

Easyi3C is a leading supplier of embedded system tools that simplify the development and debugging of various communication protocols. The company offers a range of products designed to help engineers and developers use I3C/I2C , USB and MIPI, JEDEC, MCTP and other protocols more efficiently.

1. Basic Introduction

Easyi3C Host I3C adapter is a powerful and easy-to-use I3C and I2C host adapter produced by Easyi3C. It connects the computer to the downstream embedded system environment through the USB interface and adopts the advanced I3C and I2C protocol.

Based on the application programming interface (API) function and the Easyi3C Tower console graphical user interface (GUI) tool, combined with the Python development environment, the Easyi3C Host adapter greatly simplifies the development process of I3C/I2C chip testing and data transmission environment. It provides great convenience for AE engineers, FAE engineers, etc. to verify I3C/I2C chips. Simple verification can be done through the graphical console interface, which is easy to use and easy to learn. If you want to test more complex functions or perform automated testing, you can use the rich API functions provided by the manufacturer to quickly implement automated scripts in the Python development environment.

We know that I2C was invented by Philips Semiconductors in 1981, and its history is a bit old and mature. The I3C protocol I3C specification was originally released by in 2017. I3C is the abbreviation of improved internal integrated circuit, which is a 2-wire digital interface similar to I2C. It improves and optimizes the previously released I2C and SPI interfaces, solves the problem of slow I2C communication speed, and optimizes the shortcomings of SPI through four-wire connection. The I3C specification is managed by MIPI Alliance Inc. I3C also solves the problem of high power consumption of I2C. I3C becomes a low-power, low-cost and fast digital interface. It supports multi-point connection between host MCU and peripheral devices such as sensors and multi-master devices. Because the protocol is still very new, there are not many good tools on the market. The series of products launched by Easyi3C will fill this gap. The same interface supports I3C/I2C protocols at the same time, which is convenient for engineers to write automated scripts for chip protocol testing, shorten the product launch cycle, and help the company’s products win the competition.

2. Key features:

 Supports MIPI I3C BASIC v1.1  JEDEC JESD403–1 Specifications (JEDEC DDR5 Sideband Bus Spec)  I3C Master in SDR mode  Variable Working Frequencies (Open-Drain Mode: 1 kHz to 4 MHz (Default: 1MHz); Push-Pull Mode: 100KHz to 12.5 MHz (Default: 4MHz))  Adjustable SCL Duty Cycle  Amplitude Variation: 0.8V to 3.3V in steps of 10mV  5ns resolution  Supports 7-Bit Slave Addressing  Supports Common Command Code (CCC) transactions  Supports flexible payload length’s IBI  Supports Hot Plug  Supports all Dynamic Address Assignments  Supports legacy I2C Master, Software configurable I2C pull-up  Error Injection such as parity errors  USB Type-C port, Max. Current & Voltage: 500 mA @ 5 V  Supports online upgrade  API support for automation test in Python  Physical Size: 114mm x 81mm x 27mm  Operating Temperature From –20°C to +85°C

Mapping Hardware to Software: Understanding Devicetrees

We learned how to enable and disable particular Zephyr subsystems using the "Kconfig" infrastructure in the previous blog post, "Getting Started With Zephyr: Kconfig." In particular, we looked at the Kconfig infrastructure's three primary components. To enable the LED subsystem, we first looked at an example of a Kconfig file and how the Kconfig infrastructure is constructed. Second, we observed how the Nordic VS Code Extension's GUI-based Kconfig interface can be used to enable or disable particular Zephyr subsystems. Lastly, we observed a way to modify Zephyr that can be integrated into systems that rely on CI/CD.

Adding support for communication buses and peripherals is a standard step in embedded software development, in addition to modifying an RTOS to enable or disable particular subsystems. Other MCU vendors integrate customization features into their IDE, such as enabling communication buses and configuring their parameters, as was discussed in the previous blog post. However, Zephyr also uses the "Devicetree," another construct from the Linux kernel (keep in mind that Kconfig also comes from the Linux kernel). Devicetree, or DT for short, is a data structure that describes hardware using its own language.

As ARM-based System-on-Chips (SoCs) and System-on-Modules (SoMs) running embedded Linux gained popularity, so did Devicetrees in embedded software. Bus designs that enabled automatically identifying the hardware connected to the CPU were used when Linux was first developed on Intel-based CPUs. The hardware did not need to be described in advance. However, new communication protocols and buses without any detection mechanism were introduced when ARM exploded onto the scene. As a result, the Linux kernel required a tool to recognize these buses and the devices they were connected to. Though Zephyr borrowed the devicetree concept from the Linux kernel, it is important to remember that Zephyr's use of the devicetree differs sufficiently from the Linux kernel.

 

BASIC SYNTAX

One of the most crucial things to keep in mind about the devicetree—which typically causes anxiety for embedded software engineers who are not familiar with Linux—is that it is neither magical nor enigmatic. All it is is a file with a vague structure. Each node in the file contains a specific set of definitions. Other nodes can include and reference a node. For instance, the LEDs found on a Nordic nRF52840 development kit are described in the following excerpt.

 (https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-hardware/nrf52840-dk):  leds {        compatible = "gpio-leds";        led0: led_0 {            gpios = <&gpio0 13 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;            label = "Green LED 0";        };        led1: led_1 {            gpios = <&gpio0 14 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;            label = "Green LED 1";        };        led2: led_2 {            gpios = <&gpio0 15 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;            label = "Green LED 2";        };        led3: led_3 {            gpios = <&gpio0 16 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;            label = "Green LED 3";        };};

The "leds" node describes the four LEDs onboard the development kit.

As an aside, if you have experience with Linux, you will be familiar with the aforementioned "compatible" property. To control the GPIOs, Zephyr "finds" a device driver with a corresponding "compatible" value and calls the functions listed in the device driver. This is what you might assume right away, as I did. This isn't right! We will go into greater detail in the upcoming blog post about Zephyr's "bindings," which are its own methods for linking devicetree entries to source code. For the time being, it is important to keep in mind that Zephyr and Linux use devicetrees in sufficiently different ways.

Going back to our example, the four LEDs that the "leds" node mentions also mention nodes! For instance, in the line that follows, the "led0" node indicates the precise GPIO that is utilized to control that specific LED:  led0: led_0 {        gpios = <&gpio0 13 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;        label = “Green LED 0”;}

In the above example, GPIO0_13 controls LED0 on the board, an active low GPIO. This node consists of the following elements:

"led0" is the "node label", and is used to reference the Devicetree node.

“led_0” is the node's "full name." Typically, a node's full name consists of the node name and a unit address (for example, "my-node@12345678"), but a node without an address is acceptable as well (sometimes an address doesn't make sense, as is the case here).

·“gpios” is an example of a "property" of the "led0" node. A property is ultimately used by source code to control hardware in some manner. In this instance, the "gpios" property defines a GPIO port, pin, and the active state. The device driver uses this information to control the GPIO.

·“label” is also a property of the "led0" node. Specifically, the label property can retrieve a more descriptive name for a node. In this example, "Green LED 0" can reference the node instead of "led0".

DEVICETREE LOCATION AND HIERARCHY

An illustration of a devicetree node for the Nordic nRF52840 development kit's LEDs was shown in the section above. Looking through the various devicetrees in the Zephyr repository can be useful (we will see why in a future blog post). The Zephyr repository contains the devicetrees in two main locations. The "boards" directory in the corresponding processor architecture directory contains the devicetrees for the many boards that Zephyr supports. The top-level devicetree for the nRF52840 development kit, for instance, can be found under "boards/arm/nrf52840dk_nrf52840":

".dts" is the extension for the "top-level" devicetree file, and ".dtsi" is the extension for intermediate devicetree files that are referenced by the top-level devicetree. It is possible for intermediate devicetree files to contain other intermediate files. The node that represents the LEDs on the board is visible in the nRF52840 development kit's top-level devicetree file, "nrf52840dk_nrf52840.dts," when we open it in the example above!

If we scroll to the top of this file, we see the following statements: /dts-v1/;#include <nordic/nrf52840_qiaa.dtsi>#include "nrf52840dk_nrf52840-pinctrl.dtsi"

We discovered how to incorporate support for custom hardware into our Zephyr-based firmware using the "Devicetree" in this blog post. We learned how to describe LEDs on a board and specify the corresponding GPIOs from a "blinky" example. Additionally, we discovered where devicetree files are located within the Zephyr repository and how their arrangement enables the description of boards, beginning with the CPU.

 Utilizing device drivers created by others is one of the biggest benefits of using devicetree files in Zephyr over other mechanisms provided by MCU vendors in their IDEs. Usually, we have to write driver code from scratch or import libraries in various MCU-specific environments and IDEs. Instead, we can take advantage of other people's work by using Zephyr's devicetrees and device driver model. We can concentrate on crafting our final application's business logic. We will examine Zephyr's internal workings in the upcoming blog post to learn how it uses devicetrees and how it varies from the Linux kernel.

Which ships do you take prompts for?

…so so so many. I’m a raging multi shipper and I’m in a lot of fandoms. It’s probably easier to say what I don’t ship.

*SPN: no Wincest or Samifer or Lucifer x anyone. I tend not to ship villains in general. I prefer a ship with either Dean or Cas or both but I’m open to Sam ships too.

*MDZS: no Xuexiao or really any Xue Yang ships (though I think I’d be okay with Xueyu). No Lancest, Niecest, Wencest, or Jiangcest (Wei Wuxian is NOT their blood relative so that doesn’t count for him.) I’m a little reluctant on most Jin Guangyao ships too tho I’ll do 3zun and variations there on. I tend not to like intergenerational stuff so tend to avoid older folks x juniors but I’ll ship the juniors together and depending on the ship I’d probably be willing to try?

*TGCF: …I kinda don’t get Qiurong but I’d be willing to try? But otherwise I think I’m good. I’d even be willing to do Bai Wuxiang ships as long as it’s understood it’s gonna be dark as fuck. No Xianle cousins as a ship. I think I’d struggle with Qi Rong in general but I’d give it a go. No Shicest. (This is a theme, I’m usually out on incest ships)

*SVSSS: other than family/relatives (like Tiankang jun x Luo Binghe) I can’t really think of any no’s? Im especially a proponent of Shen Qingqiu/Yuan harem rights. I’d rather not write Shen Jiu or Original Luo Binghe but…eh, I’m open.

*2ha: fuck Shi Mei. Not literally of course, but I really ain’t out here shipping Shi Mei with literally fucking anyone. Other than that I think I’m mostly game? Though I don’t remember some of the side characters that well, there were just too many names in that one big reveal about Xue what’s-his-name and Luo something-or-other.

*I’m not writing at all for Harry Potter anymore, because J.K. Rowling.

*DMBJ: I haven’t seen Mystic 9 yet so I don’t know those characters and can’t write for them yet; stick to folks in UN and TLTR and I’m probably good for most stuff? Except Wu Sanxing, and the villains, big ol’ nope.

*Qianqiu: until I reread and get a better sense of the side characters I’m pretty Yanshen only.

*Yuri in Ice: I don’t really like Otayuri, Yuri’s just too young for me to personally be comfortable shipping him. But the older folks I’m pretty open to multishipping them.

*Guardian: I’m pretty Weilan centric, I see Chuguo more familial/brotherly, and I haven’t really thought about other ships but idk try me? It’s fun to experiment.

*Leverage: anyone in the team x anyone else in the team, I’m game,

*Check Please: basically just Zimbits. I’d try other things, especially with Shitty, but no Kent Parson at all please.

*Star Wars: mostly JediStormPilotRose and permutations there of but idk I’d try other just about anything other than villains and LukeLeia. I am not familiar with Clone Wars or the Mandolarian and have only seen the movies (not Solo).

*Star Trek: I’ve never done much shippy writing for Star Trek but I’m certainly open to it. I’ve only written Spirk and McKirk, them as twosome or threesomes is good. I’d ship most of the original bridge crew in whatever configurations, really (note that I’m ToS specific, I’m not really into the new movies). I’ve not written for TNG at all but I think it’d be fun to explore. DS9 I’ve only written Miles/Julian but I’ll ship Julian with basically anyone and again I’d be happy to explore any of the main crew x any of the main crew, they all have such good chemistry I think it’d be fun. No Gul Dukat or Kai Winn. They should suffer alone. No Voyager or later series, I just haven’t seen them so I don’t know the characters.

*MCU: any hero x any other hero, in twos or threes or moresomes. I haven’t seen the last three or four movies (my last was…uh…Black Panther, or was Captain Marvel after that?). I’ve seen none of the TV shows except the first two episodes of Hawkeye. I definitely have a preference for the Captains (all three) and Clint but I’ve written World War 3some, Barbershop Quartet, and others. Also I do ship Thorki. Like I said my incest thing isn’t 100% (when they’re not blood relatives I tend not to care if they were raised together.) Deadpool is also fine but I’ve only seen the first, and I haven’t seen either Venom movie.

*Word of Honor: note I haven’t read TYK yet, but I’m open to virtually anything I guess? I’d prefer no Zhang Chengling x older folks. I favor Caoxiang, Wenzhou and Wenzhouyi.

*Other fandoms I’ll write for (most of which I have written for): Babylon 5, Voltron, Firefly, Gundam W, Psych, One Piece, Sherlock Holmes, Horatio Hornblower, any Jane Austen except Northanger Abbey (only cause I’ve never finished it oops), Love Nikki, Ruruoni Kenshin, Fushigi Yuugi, Those Years in Quest of Honor Mine, Slayers, Miraculous Ladybug, Doctor Who (9 and 10 era stuff only), Wheel of Time, the Elenium by David Eddings, Xanth, most but not all CLAMP franchises, The Witcher (but I’ve only seen the first six episodes), Slayers, Hercules, Xena…there’s others too. I’m 39, I’ve consumed soooooo much media, TV, movies, comics, manga, books, everything over the years, I don’t even fucking know anymore so you can always try me?

General note that none of this should be seen as judgement. I’m a pro-shipper. You do you and I will support you and cheer you on, I just won’t read it myself and would rather not write it, tho in truth I’ve never yet found the ship I wouldn’t at least try to write if something about the prompt caught my eye. Like, I HAVE written Wincest, and Wincestiel, and Winjimstiel, when the prompt had me interested. The worst thing that happens if you send me something that isn’t my thing is that I won’t write it, but I promise I won’t judge you or go on the rampage or anything. Shipping is awesome. Fandom is fun. I don’t have to like what others like and others don’t have to like what I like and it’s all good.

Second note: many of these fandoms I either never finished because of time and money and/or I haven’t really actively been in for a decade or more so I can’t promise my characterizations will be spot on or that I’ll remember every character.

Tl:dr I will write most things, though I generally avoid incest/blood relative shipping, cross-generational shipping, and shipping villains x the hero they hurt. I also usually don’t like cis-swaps. My AO3 list of fandoms I’ve written for has like 40 fandoms on it, I’ll write for any of them, and there’s stuff not on that list I’d also write. I will write m/m, m/f, f/f, non binary/non gendered/gender queer stuff, and poly. I’m pro-ship and pro-kink, send me whatever you feel like and if I like it, and know the characters, I’ll write it.

ETA: sure enough forgot stuff and immediately thought of it after. No RPF please, it squicks me, EXCEPT Yizhan. At this point I would write Yizhan if asked.

[doctorofmagic]

Have you ever told us what Mandala are and why you don't like them? Is it because they're new and now we have to see them everywhere as the standard way of portraying magic? I know Legends of Tomorrow, Justice League Dark (the animated movie) and the comics started doing once Doctor Strange (the live-action movie) was released.

Greetings and thanks for asking!

Well, the first part? Not exactly.

A mandala is a geometric configuration of symbols. In various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for focusing attention of practitioners and adepts, as a spiritual guidance tool, for establishing a sacred space and as an aid to meditation and trance induction. In the Eastern religions of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Shintoism it is used as a map representing deities, or specially in the case of Shintoism, paradises, kami or actual shrines  (via Wiki because I wouldn’t be able to explain properly).

They’re deeply connected to mysticism, which explains why they’re so overused in Doctor Strange to perform magic in the shape of seals.

My issue is quite simple, really. I love Marvel’s magic because it’s similar to D&D magic, but also because it’s unique on its own. Besides, I also adore elemental magic. MCU’s magic is founded on the mandala seal: spells, shields, fighting razors. It’s everywhere.

You see, we Stephen fans have a problem with the MCU when it comes to magic. Mostly because we know the movies hate magic. It’s always overshadowed by science or has its potential reduced. In comics, magic is beautiful and heavily influenced by the artist. My favorite is Yu’s rainbow version, but you can also find Bendis’ chanting, classic Ditko’s yellow bolts and so on.

Basically, magic is fluid and, as such, I like the idea of being manipulated as a kind of energy. For instance, the Shield of the Seraphim in the MCU is, again, a mandala seal. In comics, it’s (usually) a transparent “bubble”

This is a personal matter, honestly. I think MCU’s magic is just too... rigid. Not elemental enough, not colorful enough. Not... magical enough. Don’t get me wrong, there are some spells whose seals are mandalas in comics. I just don’t like the idea of using it everywhere.

Perhaps it was indeed influenced by Hellblazer. But my standard to compare Stephen’s powers come mostly from games. In Marvel Heroes, Stephen had SO MANY comics-accurate skills. For instance, the Fangs of Farallah were literally purple fangs, just like these ones:

The game is dead now but here’s his skillset. You can check this link for details.

So yeah. This is how I imagine Stephen’s magic skills. He doesn’t rely that much on martial arts with shields. He does fight, that’s true. But mostly, he’s a sorcerer. How many sorcerers in media can fight? No. They cast spells. Fireballs (Flames of Faltine check), thunderbolts (Bolts of Balthakk check), winds (Winds of Watoomb check), snow (Icy Trendils of Ikthalon check). He has it all.

So yes. I’d rather have this approach in a live-action, but it is what it is. It bothered me for some time that the mandala fever came to comics. But now it’s more... 50/50.

I hope it doesn’t sound like I’m whining. This is just my hardcore level of love and devotion to Stephen’s lore speaking. Overall, I enjoy the MCU. I don’t complain that much haha

Ghost of You - Morgan Stark (Post Endgame Imagine)

A/N: For some reason, couldn’t get this scene out of my head while listening to Ghost of You by 5 Seconds of Summer. I have no rights to any characters in Marvel including Morgan Stark from the MCU. Please note this is written from her POV.

“Friday, I want to talk to my dad.”

Morgan Stark loved her father. He was a legend to all but he was her hero. When he died, she knew. She knew but she didn’t get it. Often she would turn to Pepper and say, “Mommy lets go see Daddy in the workshop.” Pepper would smile sadly and say okay. She would watch as Morgan would begin to tinker with things in her father’s garage, sharing her thoughts from the day.  For Pep, it was like Morgan knew her father was gone but she was actively trying to connect with his spirit. Morgan Stark missed her father, Tony Stark.

She never shook that habit. At 10 years old, she figured out how to configure Friday to display a hologram of her father through an old Iron Man helmet.

“Friday, I want to talk to my dad.” Morgan looked expectantly at the air in front of her awaiting the hologram.

“Miss Stark, you are aware I am only artificial intelligence. I cannot display your father truly only how I believe he would act.” The sixteen year old looked up at the ceiling hoping to stop the tears at Friday’s gentle reminder of the lack of her father’s presence in her life. She lowered her gaze to her feet and sighed.

“I know Fri. I just... I wanted him to see me today.”

“Yes Miss Stark.” The garage workshop then became bathed in a blue light before that light took a shape. The shape of Tony Stark. He smiled happily at seeing his daughter, regarding her with a sparkle in his eyes. He looked so proud. So real.

“Hey Dad.”

“Morgan H. Stark, you are growing too quickly. Stop it. What has my incredibly intelligent and earth-shatteringly beautiful spawn all dressed up this evening?” Morgan blushed under her father’s gaze, tears coming closer to falling.

“Thanks Dad - uh it’s Prom tonight.”

“Well Happy is going to have his hands full, tagging along from a respectable distance. Don’t do anything I would do and don’t do anything I wouldn’t either.”

“Hah *wipes a couple of tears* so basically don’t do anything.”

“Exactly,” Tony steps closer to his daughter hands raised forward as if he was going to hug her. “Have a great time sweetie. I love you three thousand.”

alright so a little more discussion on how extremis plays a role in my tony’s canon !

basics - extremis is a virus that gives the user enhanced strength ,  speed , durability , stamina etc . tony , in the comics , configured the extremis to also give him regenerative properties , a wireless connection to the armor but also technology itself , and made himself become one with the armor . 

i never knew why the mcu didn’t go down this route with having tony merge with extremis but . . . okay whatever ! i remember nothing about im3 and that’s OKAY because all i’m saying is that to combat the villain he injects himself with extremis . to level the playing field but also to help with his INJURIES . idk why i capped that okay anyways . 

so he has extremis . and his mind is more computer like than before but it also fucks with him mentally . in the comics , he’d see hallucinations of people who had died that he felt personally responsible for his deaths. he saw them and they’d give him relevant information that he subconsciously already kinda had a feeling about but consciously didn’t recognize it . also as his brain is more computer like , we see in iron maaaan 2005/8 before the civil war that tony post-extremis made some pretty morally dubious decisions ( such as incapacitating a villain by stopping their heart because it was seen as an effective method of getting results , only to start their heart back up again when he needed info ) . tony stark before extremis wouldn’t have done that . so i think on some level , extremis starts fucking up with hisssssss , what’s the word , morality ? yeah ! lack of a better word . more logical , straight lines than being curbed by emotions or empathy . 

and in 2018 iron man the new run , while he no longer has extremis tony mentions he basically self engineered himself with some technology but he doesn’t FEEL HUMAN after his reboot and that’s something , i wanna touch upon as well tho not sure how to put it in his canon yet but the feelings of tony post extremis will have him like . . . not feeling human and battling with that humanity - seeking it in different , other ways . 

but yeah extremis makes him ENHANCED but not without side effects and he has extremis in endgame and that’s what saves his life ^_^ !

SPIDER-MAN HOMECOMING

 There’s a strong argument for this being their best one. In terms of sheer storytelling skill this is an incredible movie, one that balances light and depth even better than its fantastic Thor Ragnarok pal a couple of months later. Essentially Spider Man Homecoming is a tale of two halves, of being incredibly fresh in terms of its film language and style but also a fantastically astute honer of its source material.

 And what’s more amazing is that that source material is the Amazing Spider Man. Spider Man! Three thousand times-done-before Spider Man! The most popular super hero in the world Spider Man! Everybody knows him! Everybody loves him! Everybody was bored of him! Even after that wonderful glorified cameo in Civil War most moviegoers were still snarking about how many Spider-Men they’d had dripped into their eyes, how all these movies should just go away for a while. Marvel’s answer to this fatigue was to a: Strip away everything but the character’s bare essentials of teenage wonder and responsibility and b: Be basically perfect. Homecoming is a new style for the MCU and possibly blockbuster film at large; look at the short bit where Aunt May tells Peter she ‘larbs’ him while they’re eating larb. We know their relationship, but we’re seeing it fresh. This kind of shorthand plays on decades of pop-culture familiarity while spinning it into something funny and new, and it’s all over Homecoming; its biggest set-piece involves Spider-Man simply climbing something, the classic, dumbo go-to visual in everyone’s minds, it’s big villain reveal echoes the Maguire movies’ iconic Willem Dafoe thanksgiving nightmare, its attitude towards the hero’s classic rogues gallery throws loads of them in, re-configuring them to how they’d work in this new universe. Despite feeling completely new it has a complete understanding of the character, from the giddy high-school scenes dating back to the anything goes teen drama of the Lee – Ditko years to the scene at the swimming pool on the spelling bee, a perfect encapsulation of Parker’s eternal mantra of ‘with great power’ without ever saying the words. He’s a kid with a normal life, who has to do these things, because someone does.

 Everything about it is fantastic. It’s beautifully shot, beautifully edited. It takes elements of Edgar Wright and John Hughes but makes them its own, it somehow, again, even better than the super-praised Ragnarok, manages to be completely serious and still glide over itself in its use of tone – an example of this is another Aunt May bit, where a waiter asks her if she wants pudding. The way this is staged is in the language of a big reveal in any other Marvel film, the tension rising, the exhalation when the question is asked. But it’s about pudding. This movie is fucking funny.

 And all this raving is even before we get to the MCU integration. The surface level stuff is great, from all the alien tech to the fascinating motivations of the Vulture. But it’s Iron Man where it really shows off. This is a film that is incredibly sure of itself, and this surefootedness continues to an almost laughably great use of Tony Stark. Although he’s only in the movie for like five minutes, those five minutes serve as a mini Iron Man 4 in themselves; the end is an astonishingly succinct capper to years of character growth that couldn’t be done by any other series, but it’s the video call before the Staten Island Ferry bit that’s just taking the piss, with Tony arriving for two seconds to sum up his entire character arc in a couple of lines. Effortless stuff, that took ten years of effort.

 All in all one of their very best, and one whose style and assuredness points to their future. The only things Homecoming falls short on – a slight lack of weight to Peter’s character, a slight lack of great action – can be remedied later. This is the first of the stories for this character, and while it helps that they can rely on and subvert years of audience expectations, this is still the best opening gambit for a series-within-a-series in the MCU since Guardians. This tone, this style, this skill, could make for ten Spider-Man movies, from boy to man, getting deeper and more emotionally resonant as they go on, building him up to the greatest hero that he always has been. I think that’s what they’re going to do. And if Homecoming is any indication, it is going to be Amazing.

All about Car Programmer

Automobiles are becoming more advanced these days. Analog fittings have been replaced by high-resolution screens, and software has become the heart of engine management systems. It's no surprise that new automobiles are showcased at computer trade exhibitions rather than car shows.

There is, however, another reason why a car program is intriguing. Car owners have the option of configuring or programming it themselves! Let's take a closer look at what car programming is and how it works.

Many people believe that only authorized garages can help you unlock your car's "hidden" features. It is, however, feasible for you to program your own car! You can program your car to enable or disable particular capabilities. To make it yourself at home, all you need is the necessary equipment.

is an aftermarket component that includes an on-dash or window-mounted monitor and control panel, as well as the proper connections to connect with the factory engine management module.

These devices balance these parameters by modifying the engine management system's electronic tuning features to ensure optimal performance by monitoring turbo boost pressure, engine RPMs, coolant temperature, airflow, fuel rail pressure, and other operating factors such as vehicle load.

These little electronic gadgets, sometimes known as programmers, engine performance tuners, chips, or gauge tuners, are used to manage and optimize engine performance on trucks, SUVs, and crossovers. The word "chip" comes from the fact that the device's heart is a silicon integrated circuit. The ability to go beyond the vehicle's firmware to modify the engine's "tune" to the driver's individual needs is referred to as "car programmer." Some variants have a "gauge" that the driver can examine while driving to evaluate how effective the device is.

 A programmable tuner is a single-purpose mini-computer that contains an on-dash or window-mounted monitor and control panel, as well as the appropriate leads to link with the factory engine control module, and can be purchased as an aftermarket item.

Basic Car Programmer Functions & Advantage:

It's the first to support the latest Land Rover body computer's reading and writing. All keys have been misplaced and are required;

It allows for the calibration of ATMEL series MCU instruments with minimal danger of disassembly;

Instrument calibration and encryption chip support for the Freescale 9s12 Series CPU;

Encourage the repair of airbag computers.

Support for ECU programming on mt60 and mt80 computer boards;

Support necv850 series, Renesas series, ST series, Infineon series, and other chips for reading and writing;

Ability to read and write Audi BCM and other car BCM;

Everyone is in favor of d70f3xxx;

Support for the ST10F series, as well as repairable Bosh computers, power amplifiers, ABS, and DDM.

☕ The fact that Wakanda was presented as an advanced country looking down on others from it's comfortable vibranium armchair but had a monarchist system that could place a ruler with 100% muscles and 0% brains at the head, along with other bothersome stuff like that, like Shuri being the head of the government's science department while she is a part of the royal family, or really, every single part of Wakanda that looks good on paper - a king with a council of people leading the different tribes - but that history has shown us very often ends up creating a dictatorship, which is really what happened in the movie and I'm surprised no one sees it.

Like, the movie literally shows us this country that's supposedly so advanced, with spies and people placed around the world, most likely putting their fingers in as many pies as possible, and an incredibly developed technology - which is frightening on many levels considering that UN or no Wakanda could blow up everything outside of its borders and people wouldn't know it until it happened -, but with a monarchist - and whatever other words could define it - governmental system that has revealed a lot of problems in its configuration. The tribes leader were literally being choked in the throne room and no one was doing anything, there was a destruction of a historical, scientific and cultural heritage being condoned by the new religious ceremony leader(???) just because the king ordered it. They would've literally tried taking over the entire non-black population (and where does that leave all the metis people? All the ones that are not white, but not black? Of middle eastern descendance? Of Asian one? Etc?) if the ex-monarch hadn't done something.

What I'm trying to ask if, what do you think of Wakanda being a good idea on paper but terrible in practice? True! Untrue? Something else?

Holy shit lady, you ask the tough questions. This is a difficult subject to cover - you’re asking me to look at the political structure of a fictional society within a disenfranchised continent - and I’m uncertain if it’s possible to do a decent analysis without addressing heavy topics. Basically, I don’t want to sound like a privileged dickwad. So I guess what I can say is - this comes from someone with a (mostly decent) American-based education, and no formal study of pre-colonial customs and political structures in Africa. I apologise for any misconstrued ideas and more than welcome any corrections to those who know more about these subjects!

I like Wakanda on paper, mostly due to the fact that the majority of Africa got completely screwed in terms of historical treatment and I’m rooting for the continent’s people to gain their own voices again. Wakanda being such a huge thing in international popular culture might serve as an inspiration for someone who ends up being important to at least one country there. In that sense, I really like Wakanda - the idea that it can potentially inspire historically disenfranchised cultures in the real world. How practical that thought is, I’m not sure - I might just be too idealistic.

Dictatorships can happen in non-monarchies as well, which you know -- as the most famous examples in 20th century history are not monarchies. The issue that can appear in monarchies -- or dictatorships -- is the lack of checks and balances to help keep those in power from going overboard (or the populace not having enough manpower/arms to get a dictator-like-coup out, but that’s an entirely different discussion!)

From what we got in the movie, Wakanda does seem to lack those checks and balances and no ability to overrule a king’s command. It seemed that they never had any sort of Magna Carta in their history (which is far from a perfect document, but did start the precedent of limiting monarchical power), and it doesn’t seem there’s anything resembling a representative government with veto power over the leader that you see in, what, 2/3rds of the world these days? (I legit have no idea, but I do know it’s wide-spread.)

But why wouldn’t they have such a document limiting monarchical power or some sort of democratic process? The modern mindset across many countries around the world leans towards democracy and elected, representative governments. But it can’t be denied that colonialism helped spread this, as -- at least, according to wiki -- representative democracy/liberal democracy/Western democracy all originate in Europe. So, in some way it makes sense that they didn’t transition yet because they were never colonized, and they were completely self-contained so didn’t have any of the outside world conflicts to force them to make changes. France helped fund the barons who pushed for the Magna Carta. France was also responsible for helping fund/arm the US in their fight to gain independence (lol France vs England history, it’s so great). External conflicts with other regions/countries caused *changes* to happen in those societies, at least from what I know of European history. Possibly happened in other continents, but I’m just not knowledgeable enough about their histories to give specific examples.

Wakanda had no outside conflict, and with no outside conflict, you get one major source of problems eliminated. Civil wars happen for a multitude of reasons, but perhaps one of their solutions historically for kingship changing without civil war was the fight of a representative of a tribe to try and win it over. Who knows? But when you’re enclosed like Wakanda was, there’s a lot less chance of things changing.

(On that note - their selection of a new leader is also incredibly disproportionately unfair to women. The average man is physiologically stronger and faster than the average woman. It’s just--biology. But who knows, maybe Wakanda was the same as much of the rest of the world in terms of their thoughts of women leading in politics. There’s comic canon that could be different, but the MCU did a lot of changes from comic canon.)

A *lot* of things changed across the world in the 20th century, making the world much smaller. Before the 20th century, it was likely considered completely useless and nonviable to make war on other nations because, though they were more technologically advanced, it’s incredibly unlikely they had something akin to nuclear bombs in the 19th century. They had to have their own steps of progression. And if they were only *a bit* better, they couldn’t stop the entire world if they started attacking and word spread. It’s only in the late 20th, early 21st century that things like destroying the rest of the world with Wakandan weaponry was likely actually feasible. Though honestly? I don’t think that shield could withstand a nuke. I just don’t see it. If Erik’s plan went through, he may have doomed Wakanda's capital city to being utterly annihilated because too many countries do have the ultimate kill button, and there are some who would not hesitate to use it.

It also could be cultural. Wakanda didn’t go conquering their neighbors left and right. They were happy with five tribes and it seemed to remain five tribes. That speaks of something deeply cultural, deep within the roots of how they’re raised and taught. Erik came from an entirely different culture with a violent childhood and background, and because they were in the 21st century, other Wakandans could *learn* of the rest of the world, and get new ideas - and get the same anger that stirs war and revolutions, and ultimately can affect a country’s culture.

So perhaps before the 21st century, limited power with the king wasn’t needed simply due to their isolation. Now, though that they are much more connected with the world, maybe they need something more like Botswana or Nigeria, only tied in with a monarchy (according to wiki -- Elsewhere, in Botswana, the kgosis (or chieftains) of the various tribes are constitutionally empowered to serve as advisors within the national legislature as members of the Ntlo ya Dikgosi. Meanwhile, in Nigeria, the various traditional polities that currently exist are politically defined by way of the ceding of definite authority from the provincial governments, which in turn receive their powers to do so from a series of chieftaincy laws that have been legislatively created.)

So basically what I’m trying to say is, while I’m personally super gung ho about representative democracies and individual liberties, that’s not necessarily the culture of Wakanda and it may not fit for them. But *what* the culture of Wakanda evolves into, being more open to the rest of the world -- and thus, the rest of the world’s ideas and cultures, remains to be seen. They may find that they do need to reform their political structure after the civil war we saw in the first film, though, and perhaps they do so.

MCU CSR Interface-Interlaken Protocol and Ethernet Protocol-ASIC/SoC Physical Design

The multi-control framework is executed in this paper. Being happy with the prerequisites for Bluetooth profile determination and concentrating on the part to be improved, the method for an original application is presented. MCU CSR interface depends on Bluetooth sequential port profile, by utilizing CSR BC02 and MCU, a multi-control framework application is carried out. In light of the exploration of Bluetooth Protocol, a sort of Bluetooth information moving framework given MCU-controlling has been proposed in the paper. In the framework, the MCU where the Bluetooth HCI convention has been implanted is utilized to control the Bluetooth module on UART and make the Bluetooth gadgets in the Bluetooth network set up an association and move information naturally.

In the equipment plan, the chip C8051F020 is chosen as the host regulator. There are many fields and conditions to be checked in the HIRFL-CSR control framework. The field clever gear in light of MCU is planned, the framework functional standard, equipment setup, and programming block graph exile, and the capacity of the screen framework and its strategy for acknowledgment are portrayed. The framework enjoys benefits like a cordial point of interaction, the minimal expense of plan and basic activity, and acceptable experimental outcomes have been accomplished.

Interlaken protocol and Ethernet protocol are two principal structures that characterize the Interlaken Protocol the information transmission design and the Meta Frame. The information transmission design depends fundamentally on the ideas of SPI4. Information sent across the interface is fragmented into explodes, which are subsets of the first bundle information. Each burst is limited by two control words, one preceding and one after, and sub-fields inside these control words influence either the information following or going before them for capacities like beginning of-parcel, end-of-bundle, blunder recognition, and others.

Each burst is related to an intelligent channel, which can address a physical systems administration port in the framework or another sensibly associated stream of information. Parcel information is sent successively through at least one explodes, and the size of the blasts is a configurable boundary. By fragmenting the information into explodes, the interface permits the interleaving of information transmissions from various channels for low-inactivity activity. The Meta Frame is characterized to help the transmission of the information over a framework. It envelops a bunch of four interesting control words, which are characterized to give path arrangement, scrambler introduction, clock remuneration, and indicative capacities.

The last segment of this paper diagrams procedure that is empowering the SoC plan at these levels. A further developed ASIC/SOC physical design plan philosophy for fast plan intermingling is depicted in this paper. Not at all like the customary ASIC/SOC plan strategies zeroed in on mechanization, our new strategy centers around smoothing out the ASIC/SOC stream's planning-consuming strides by applying our master's BKM's (most popular system) to speed up plan combination.

integrated circuits (ASICs) and system-on-a-chip (SoC) plans. This procedure is utilized by both IBM ASIC and SoC planners, just as OEM clients. A vital focal point of the IBM ASIC/SoC procedure, illustrated in the primary segment of this paper, is the initial time-right strategies for plan and confirmation that boost the right activity of the chip upon item incorporation. The second part of this paper depicts progress in an approach that arrangement with the actual impacts of contracting gadget calculations and empower configuration utilizing the presentation and thickness capacities accessible in the new advances, and systemic advances that have further developed plan turnaround time (TAT) for huge, complex plans. Impending nanometer-level advancements present new chances to incorporate frameworks on a solitary chip, including practical parts of blended libraries and blended simple and computerized plans. It empowered us to abbreviate the tedious stages drastically with generally negligible exertion. --

so yeah, following this scene from Loki episode 3 I’ve been thinking about how of course there’s gonna be Asgardian fairy tales that are basically the same as ours in terms of having, like, a main character who’s clever and courageous and kind-hearted, and by exercising these virtues they win treasure or an advantageous marriage or they break a curse or whatever. and I’ve been thinking about how Loki is so cynical about love, and how he was so cynical about Steve’s whole Captain America facade, and what if those were part of the same thing?

what if a young Loki decided he wanted the whole fairy tale romance thing, only to realize as he actually gets old enough for relationships that people only want him for his crown or his money or his connections? and that supposed fairy tale heroes are either just really good at crafting a public image or so committed to the letter of the law that they won’t even breathe funny?

and then he gets to Midgard and there’s this asshole in blue whose entire reputation revolves around being that fairy tale hero. clearly he’s the boring letter of the law sort, if he’s marching around dressed in his country’s flag and running off to perform additional duties when the rest of his team is taking a well-deserved break after their victory, but he’s also just gorgeous and that combination really gets under Loki’s skin. like what right does he have to be so close to a dream Loki (tells himself he) gave up on centuries ago? what right does he have to be so close to perfect and yet so decisively positioned against Loki?

nothing comes of it, of course. there’s only the briefest moment in time where each even knows the other exists before they both move on with their lives, so what could ever come of it? but in a timeline where Loki didn’t escape, we know it’s Steve Loki thinks of first out of all Thor’s new little Earth friends, and so even in the midst of everything going to shit on a universal scale, that one small glimmer of potential--of hope--lingers.

since apparently I can’t get to sleep until I put some actual positivity in the Loki spoilers tag, here’s some things I liked about the finale:

1) that whole kintsugi aesthetic in the Citadel at the End of Time? where so much was broken or crumbling that it looked like the intact parts had been pieced back together from the rubble? fucking flawless

2) He Who Remains: that man was cuckoopants bananas in a way where I actually bought him being smart, unlike Thanos who was somehow both a flat earther and an ecofascist at the same time with far more power than either should have. if He Who Remains had said he already knew he’d wind up back in the Citadel because it had happened before, I’d have believed him.

3) there are a handful of ships in this fandom which I refuse to acknowledge as canon, but sylki isn’t one of them! I feel like they actually put some effort into making it believable, and I can respect that even if my OTP lies elsewhere.

3a) god though, Loki’s only concern being another person’s well-being/the otherwise ruthless Sylvie sending Loki somewhere she assumes he’ll be safe instead of killing him when he gets in her way is such good character development for both of them

4) given Loki’s history in both the MCU and the comics of using one danger to keep another at bay, or one misdeed to prevent a greater one, it makes sense that he’d want to stop and think about the timeline situation rather than jump right to an irreversible decision. Sylvie was obviously still right to prioritize free will over safety in a cage, but Loki’s position is understandable for where he is right now, development-wise.

5) Mobius trying to have a badass moment and Ravonna just clocking him (no pun intended) was pretty funny, you guys

6) but does her having that pen mean Ravonna has her pre-TVA memories, or was she just allowed to read her own file once she got the right promotion? something to think about while we wait for Season 2 ��

7) B-15 and Mobius working together to get the truth about the TVA out after so consistently butting heads at the start of the show...!

8) the way the timeline has already branched so comprehensively in the limited time it took for He Who Remains to finish his spiel and Loki and Sylvie to fight over it that even the once-inviolate TVA is now duplicated!

9) M U L T I V E R S E

and I think that’ll do it for now! sorry to everyone who was disappointed, but I had a fuckin blast and look forward to more (◡‿◡ )
