rpi-eeprom VS desktop

I don't have Pi 5 to check this, but from what I've read, it does not support PPS. And such support is required; otherwise, even with a source that supports PPS, the connection will behave in a non-PPS fashion.

Apparently, cable quality is also demonstrating itself to be a significant factor in the Pi 5 power supply environment.

Regarding both these points:

I should note, I updated the eeprom, USB hub, and network firmware using the images provided from the following repository: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom. So it certainly isn't a corrupted eeprom chip, and if it was I wouldn't be able to boot the old installation I pulled from my backup drive.

Its a known issue with the current Pi 4 boot firmware. The net install option is trying to look for a keyboard and gets confused with some HIDs.

I was working on a final project for my class and needed an adc. So I ordered an ADS1115 and I had to solder the pins onto it. I've never soldered before, but I tried my best. Didn't look amazing, but didn't look like any pins were getting shorted so I plugged it in to the Pi. I then noticed that my ssh disconnected and couldn't reconnect. Tried plugging in the HDMI and there was no video output. I tried flashing a new OS onto it, didn't work. Tried EEPROM recovery from here and it didn't work. So I think I killed the Pi. It doesn't feel like it's getting warmed up or anything.

See https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/blob/master/firmware/release-notes.md

I try to reset the pi as factory settings (following this github advice). I use pi-imager to set my SD card to lead the pi using USB boot priority and plug a USB key with raspbian OS (no desktop) and now getting green screen when booting. Think that the pi is dead.

I think it was this one:

I had the same problem as you, updated my eeprom and the problem was fixed

Congrats on the launch! It's always exciting to see more competition in the version control space.

One question I have is whether you guys are better than:

https://desktop.github.com/

This seems to do the exact same thing, be free forever, and have a more mature GUI that is also easier to use than regular terminal git. In my firm, even with people who don't know how to code, they can use github desktop (since it babies you through the process of committing code.)

- Product designers for open-source hardware. Various design files, SVG etc.

I’ve experimented with a “GUI only” git flow - just to see what is possible, so I could introduce the concept to others.

I found GitHub desktop app (https://desktop.github.com/)did a great job of visually showing git flows and functions, but for a non-tech/programmming person, the tool would be daunting.

Curiosity what your suggested tech stack would be - sans Terminal…

just use github desktop its an open source tool https://desktop.github.com/

Download and install GitHub Desktop if you haven't already.

3️⃣ GitHub Desktop: A desktop application provided by GitHub that allows you to interact with Git repositories visually. It provides an easy way to clone repositories, commit changes, create branches, and push and pull changes. Website: https://desktop.github.com/
