Deploying artifacts from Github Actions using SCP
Problem:
You need to push some artifacts from a Github Actions runner into a folder in a server where you only have SSH enabled.

[Full article]I’m using mpv on Linux and the screen keeps turning off.
There are probably some fixes around ( --stop-screensaver maybe?) but it’s funny how XKCD 196 keeps haunting Linux

It turns out that the PWM signal on PC fans doesn’t require much current. Max 5mA according to the Intel specifications.

The trick is to place a driver inside the fan capable of obtaining the necessary voltage/current.

This exonerates the MoBo engineers from accounting for high current requirements when designing the PWM controller and avoids wasting energy driving up and down a potentially high current through the connectors and cables.
From “Control of Machines with Friction - Brian Armstrong”
Friction is universally present in the motion of bodies in contact. The modern science of tribology seeks to explain the atomic details of friction; but the universality of friction may also be understood from a different perspective. Leonardo da Vinci, among his many investigations, studied the relationship between friction and the music of the heavens. He knew the music to be produced by the bumping and rubbing of the heavenly spheres and was concerned with the possibility of friction between these heavenly bodies:
“Had however this friction really existed, in the many centuries that these heavens have revolved they would have been consumed by their own immense speed of every day … we arrive therefore at the conclusion that the friction would have rubbed away the boundaries of each heaven, and in proportion as its movement is swifter towards the centre than toward the poles it would be more consumed in the centre than at the poles, and then there would not be friction any more, and the sound would cease, and the dancers would stop …” Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), The Notebooks, F 56 V
The music of the heavens being eternal, Leonardo understood that friction is absent from the state of grace. Thus confined to this mortal world, friction is a consequence of original sin.

How to add your private keys to the native Windows SSH client:
# By default the ssh-agent service is disabled. Configure it to start automatically.
# Make sure you're running as an Administrator.
Get-Service ssh-agent | Set-Service -StartupType Automatic
# Start the service
Start-Service ssh-agent
# This should return a status of Running
Get-Service ssh-agent
# Now load your key files into ssh-agent
ssh-add $env:USERPROFILE\.ssh\id_ecdsa
