allows you to take a moment to breathe and reflect on the new creative relationship we are forming with machines. The calm meditative interface of a vintage typewriter takes away all the digital distractions and takes us on an emotional journey through paper and ink. (2/13)
I started my search for an electronic typewriter that would let me read the keys through an #Arduino. After a long search, I found this worn-out brother model.
I then spent time restoring: replacing the broken daisy wheel, getting new cartridges, lubricating and cleaning. (3/13) twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

The idea was very simple - to make a device based on the Raspberry Pi 4, and leave only the essentials. Plus PoE (Power over Ethernet).
Hide the printed circuit board and unnecessary interfaces. Make it closer to the average user.

When operating SAT-portable, the automatic Doppler correction of 2xFT-818 can be conveniently performed by a #RaspberryPi Zero W running #Gpredict and #Hamlib. Proven solid and reliable in DXing over the last 2 years. Read on for details 🧵

Doppler adjustment can be made manually but beyond calling CQ things get cumbersome. An automated tracking allows to quickly hop between different stations in the very limited time of the pass. For DX skeds this setup brings you spot on on the transponder frequency. 2/8 #amsat
RasPi connects to the WiFi hotspot of my iPhone enabling control and time sync. RTCZero backs up the system time. 2x CH340 USB-TTL converters connect the FT-818s to the Pi through Zero4U hub. 3/8

1\ #Ethereum e a maioria das outras #altcoins rodam em uma estrutura de rede predominantemente da Amazon porque as "funcionalidades" adicionais requerem muito mais poder de processamento.
Por que isso é um grande risco na realidade de hoje?

2\O mkt da maioria das criptos depende de enfatizar como a #blockchain deles é melhor, mais rápida e mais versátil que a do #Bitcoin

Not gonna lie, I'm loving the Clustered-pi Zero build. Look at it! (just printing out more of the Cushions at the moment). Ordered some 90 degree micro USB connectors so the wires don't stick out the sides. clustered-pi.com/blog/clustered… #raspberrypi #raspberrypizero2 @Raspberry_Pi

Je vous propose un petit thread sur notre atelier de médiation scientifique sur l'#IA réalisé lors de la Nuit Blanche des Chercheurs #nbc à la @Halle6Ouest. Un projet évolutif auquel nous vous invitons à contribuer avec @Chaire_RELIA @classcode_fr et @LaboLS2N @NantesUniv 🧐👇
Cet atelier se base sur une interpretation de l'oeuvre "1000" créé par le collectif d'artistes/chercheurs Exsitu: exsitu.xyz/home Une structure d'1m de haut présentant une collection de 1000 objets ramassés sur la route dans 23 pays lors d'un tour du monde à vélo.
Chacun de ces objets à été encapsulé dans un tube en verre, et peut être éclairé indépendamment par des leds. Le tout étant monté en circuit linéaire, comme une guirlande, sur 10 étages de 100 objets. Contrôlé par un #raspberrypi, il est associé à un système audio et vidéo.
My pi is burning up... need some active cooling solution recommendation!
Currently, it's in open top case allowing natural air convection with aluminum heat sinks on SoC and and the network unit.
Room temp easily reaches 35°-40°C. Anything better than a simple fan?

Update 1/n: Messed up somewhat big today. Tried to remove the glued aluminum heat sink to apply heat sink paste. While doing so, applied intensive pressure causing the sink to come-off rather strongly and hit some HDMI ICs.
Pi works but HDMI display anymore.

Hello world! I want to share with you a device I made, its name is "Yayagram", a machine that helps our beloved elders to keep communicating with their grandchildren . How? Let me open a thread to give you all the details of this contraption.
First, why Yayagram? Well, "Yaya" means "Granny" in Castillean, a warm way to refer to your grandmother. And, I use @telegram to send and receive messages, so merge both words and you have the... #Yayagram!
The Yayagram has two features:
🔵Send voice messages via Telegram by just pressing a button.
🔵Receive Telegram messages and physically print them on thermal paper.

Currently 2 routes: account balance and update balance. Update intentionally uses 1 transaction/query to amplify the effect of many short connections (not a real bank app!)

db.py was pulled/updated from another project to use psycopg3. Seems to be drop-in replacement! 👍
db_pool.py is reworked version to use conn pool instead of creating/destroying connections per query. The docs were helpful: psycopg.org/psycopg3/docs/…

His "Modern Retro Computer Terminals" project are a series of tiny computers built around low-cost processors like the #RaspberryPi and Nvidia Jetson Nano, run off a 3D printer and assembled.

The project includes an "UltraWide 8.8″ LCD Terminal" built around a skinny 4:1 LCD and powered by an OpenGL-capable Nvidia Jetson Nano. It is so wide it didn't fit in Mesià's 3D printer bed, so it had to be assembled from multiple pieces.

For this year's #30DayMapChallenge i will be trying to create 30 maps on #Berlin just using #OpenData and #OpenSource software. For day 01 - Polygons, a map of all of Berlin's street trees. #QGIS Source: github.com/sebastian-meie…
BTW @citylabberlin has built an #FOSS platform for visualising and managing joint efforts for watering trees during dry periods in the summer: giessdenkiez.de Source code: github.com/technologiesti…

This week was both very intense and very rewarding as we successfully completed our first #RemoteTeaching exercises on #EmbeddedElectronics. It was really cool to see students doing some #Arduino programming from their homes on the physical systems at @AaltoUniversity 🧵(1/9)
The exercises are a part of a course on Translational Engineering, so they had to be of a more general/informative nature and to be tailored for a group of master students (not all currently in Finland) with very heterogeneous background (bit.ly/3nYTzO5) (2/9)
So, the tricky goal was to set up a remotely accessible user-friendly system able to read, display, and interpret data from accelerometers attached to a prosthetic hand that opens/closes at various speeds (Why hand? Cause it is cool and it leans towards my research) (3/9)
Please help us welcome our next curator Darryl Takudzwa Griffiths. @BlaqNinja completed his Bachelors Degree in Computer Engineering at DUT, graduated in 2011. Due to struggling to find suitable employment he went on to study multiple certificates from bodies such as Microsoft.
He has certificates in N+ (Computer Networking), A+ (Computer Technician & Technical Support), Certified Ethical Hacking V7 (CEH v7), Offensive Security Certified Professional (OSCP). Sadly even with these, he could not secure his desired post so in 2016 he moved to USA.
Darryl was able to secure a job in a corporation that owns casinos as a system analyst & security architect. Within the same year he embarked on a Masters degree in Robotics & Artificial Intelligence Engineering. In 2017 he resigned from his post and started his own company...
Building memory
Sigh, one of my RAM chips has failed me, it's going to be an almost 6 week time sink before I can acquire a replacement 😞.
should I update this weather station logger box design ? 🤔 probably.
work in progress (fusion360)
V1.0 design is ready. The box is sized to host a #RaspberryPi, a 10 Ah Powerbank and USB connectors. It should be both rain-proof and easy to open manually (disclaimer: most of the time a V2 is needed... before the V3). We'll see ! Time to send to 3D printing ... 😋
#RaspberryPi Zero W Brian bot coming along, going to test out his head later via my OakPi laptop and a little python test script. Heat shrink over LED connections inside the head and wires through head connector allowing movement. RGB eye LED’s @mrdavidjwatts

Python is a high-level programming language whose structure mimics the way humans think.
It abstracts away low-level stuff like memory management, pointers etc.. which are the main stay of other languages like C++, Java

It is dynamically typed. Don’t be perturbed. Basically when u say a language is statically typed, it means you need to declare your variables upfront. You need to tell the compiler how much memory to set aside to handle a variable in advance.
