A GPU memory test utility for NVIDIA and AMD GPUs using well established patterns from memtest86/memtest86+ as well as additional stress tests. The tests are designed to find hardware and soft errors. The code is written in CUDA and OpenCL.

The DarkLight Cover/Calibrator (DLC) is a DIY project to build a motorized telescope cover, flat panel, or a combination flip-flat system. Its modular design supports various setups: a 12V light panel without a servo for a wall-mounted calibration panel, a servo-only cover for sky flats, or both integrated into a flip-flat mechanism. The DLC also includes optional dew heating to reduce extra equipment and cabling. With available drivers, it works with ASCOM or INDI. We’re excited to announce that the DarkLight Cover Calibrator project has officially moved to GitHub! 🔗 New GitHub Repository: 👉 https://github.com/10thTeeAstronomy/DarkLight_CoverCalibrator © Nathan Woelfle 2025.

"KMI Wave-RAM" ("kmiwaveram") "kmiwaveram" contains a "Wave-RAM" of 8 banks of 16K sample words of 16bit each, which can possibly be used in a PPG synthesizer such as the "Wave 2.2", "Wave 2.3", or "EVU". For sample-transfer, "kmiwaveram" has a USB interface and an optional "PPG Communication Bus" interface. On a "CommBusTerm" system, the tools "cbmedimonitor" and "WaveProgEdit" can be used for "fast" sample-transfer to "kmiwaveram" via USB. "kmiwaveram" contains hardware and software components: * "kmiwaveram-HW": "KMI Wave-RAM" hardware * "KMIWAVERAMBIOS": firmware for "kmiwaveram-HW" Copyright (C) 2026 by Klaus Michael Indlekofer.

DEVELOPMENT OF THIS PROJECT HAS MOVED TO GITHUB, at https://github.com/simonjwright/cortex-gnat-rts This project contains various GNAT Ada Run Time Systems (RTSs) targeted at Cortex boards: so far, the Arduino Due (http://www.arduino.org) and the STM32F4-series evaluation boards from STMicroelectronics (http://www.st.com). It is intended that releases will allow the development of proprietary software (by the use of the GCC Runtime Library exception for project-developed code, and by only using manufacturer’s software where the same permission applies).

Oh My Fan! is a very useful app. It allows you to adjust your fan speed to make your Intel Mac run cooler. Benefit Highlighting: * Run in background mode with the CPU temperature info diplayed in the menu bar. * Drag the pointer in dashboard to adjust the fan speed. * You can control the fan speed from within the menubar easily. * See the temperature values in either Celsius(℃) or Fahrenheit(℉). * You can choose whether the Oh My Fan! will start at login, and I recommend do so. In order to not damage your machine, Oh My Fan! does not let you set a minimum/maximum speed to a value below/above Apple's defaults. If you encounter any issue, you can email me: Tong-G@outlook.com. If you are using GnuPG, you can send me encrypt email, my GnuPG pub key is sosueme@openmailbox.org, you can retrieve it from keyserver.
