This encouraged me to get my ACR122U working on my own system. Iāve found that the PCSCD service will interrupt communication between python and the reader. I had to run systemctl mask pcscd.service to keep it from randomly starting up and borking my script.
on a side note the guide I found said to install pcsc-lite from source which subsequently prevented firefox from running correctly. It is really only useful for testing to see if the reader works.
Yeah, had to do the same here, but then it borks up my other readers (i.e. I need to manually start them, and that does bork up the ACR122U).
Iāve just given up on that reader for Linux. or most things with enforced PCSCD stuff. =/
That error seems similar to one I used to encounter even on older revisions.
repeatedly calling the ACR to do stuff over short intervals seemed to always lead it to time out after a while (and not recover even restarting the script).
I tried many things but the best results I had were from AURās version of nfcpy wich goes down the pyserial route instead.
But even then ACR122U was still flaky, so I switched to a Teensyduino connected to an Adafruitās PN532 and got much happier.
Is there a way of telling how many consecutive days Iāve visited the forum? I thought āDays Visitedā was a consecutive counter but I havenāt received the āDevoteeā badge yet. Does this mean āDays Visitedā is a grand total?
I work with a bunch of nuts who lap up all that fringe conspiracy crap. Today one of them blurted out that the mayor of DC had committed suicide. (zero idea if thatās accurate).
One of the other guys shouts from across the room, āWas he a Democrat or Republican?ā with, I shit you not, glee in his voice.
That, my friends, is a single sentence encompassing so much of what is wrong in America today. No sorrow, no acknowledgement of the staggering pain this person must of had, or effects it will have on anyone who loved him, just an immediate jab right to the heart of whether it can be used for political advantage.
The Mayor of Hyattsville, a Maryland suburb outside of DC committed suicide. He was a Democrat, but as you said it would be equally sad no matter what his political affiliation.
Yes, American politics seems to have become a team sport. Push for āyour teamā no matter what. Make sure that they āwinā, whatever it takes.
In my case I donāt have much choice for what party to vote for. All the politicians in my area are garbage and its like trying to pick through manure to find one that smells the least bad. I still vote simply because I want to try and help make this garbage state a little less garbage. It sure feels like a loosing battle though.
Iādā¦kind ofā¦. Love to see a āthey all
Suckā option on the ballotā¦ and if enough votes anyone on the ballot is removed from running and the election is held again
ā¦but I also donāt want to deal with any more elections that I have to
Thereās always 3rd party, not that it has a realistic chanceā¦ also the last couple looked half decent until it got to the wire then they both shit themselvesā¦ sigh
there is a lot of stuff going on in my life so i dont really have a free head to setup my proxmark but if im ready for it i will get back to your guide
yesterday i started getting experience with uv tattoo ink and did some trash tattoos.
In some countries, that is the null option, actually.
one of the most common processes:
blank votes go towards the candidate with majority of actual votes
Null votes go to no one
If no candidate reaches X% of votes, the ellection is cancelled and a new one must be held where none of the previous candidates are allowed to participate.
Some countries have modified this principle, others removed it completelyā¦ but most democracies have/had a mechanism just like that one. And itās built around the null vote.
Hence why candidates demonise the null vote so much and spread so much misinformation about it: they are terrified the masses might learn how it actually works.
