The TS100 is a soldering iron with an STM32 microcontroller and published firmware making it hackable. This guy added an oscilloscope feature:

I have an STM32 and installed a #FORTH on it; you see where this is going...

I've been struggling, and feeling like crying under a blanket, and remembered this from Brene Brown (Sorry if this comes across like an ad for her book. It's not.)

Big changes in my life this year, including being without my own computer again and not having enough space on my phone for a Mastodon app. Thanks for following me and prodding me to visit again! It's been far too long. :)

OKCupid’s launched an adorable ad campaign that includes all sorts of people.

I'm considering moving my primary mastodon activity away from (currently dead) manowar.social :loading:

I'm thinking of trying to compartmentalize my(net)self a bit, and make specialized accounts.
I already have this one as a personal alt, but I might convert it to :crt_w_green_lines: weird-tech-cybre-dreams

Probable accounts:
:crt_w_prompt: tech ideas and exploits
:blobross: art & culture

Please boost, as I only have 11 followers here and @ me with suggestions! :thaenkin:

I think that I'm going to keep some videos of the way animals are treated in factory farms on hand to show Jehova's Witnesses when they come over uninvited to share /their/ message. I will agree to look at what they want to show me if they'll look at what I want them to see, the main reasons why I choose not to consume animal products.

Months ago I was having browser issues and someone on this forum recommended Vivaldi, which has had many improvements since then. It's much more stable than my other preferred browser, Opera, so you may want to check it out if you're not thrilled with your current browser.

Here's a post about the latest version and its new features

I'm thinking of taking this Masterclass by Shonda Rhimes some time in the near future so that I can adapt the EarthCent Ambassador book series by E.M. Foner so it'll be the most popular, longest running television series without any violence.

I bought a Commodore 64 from eBay and found a floppy drive for it at a thrift store. (Unfortunately the SID is dead so no music yet but I'll replace it eventually).

It's amazing to be able to just interact with the computer from the get-go. The manual that came with the C64 tells you memory addresses you can send information to and it tells you what the values do and then you can just go.

I wish modern computing was anything like that.

Here is what I would like: I'm typing and I want to cite something. I press a key and I can search by author, title in a database of everything ever published. When I make my choice a cite key is inserted in my format of choice (Pandoc) and the bibliographic information is pulled from that big database to a local file. This file is kept in sync with the big database and my own document, until I decide to 'freeze' it and it becomes static as a permanent record.

I did a DuckDuckGo search looking for a cute little pic or gif to send a friend along with a message and was SO surprised by the results!

Search term was: "love you bunches" rabbit OR bunny

Can anyone explain to me why people with telephones who are using Internet from the phone service choose to communicate via WhatsApp, Messenger or Skype before CALLING or textiing someone who's in the same calling area where they are and may not be connected to Internet all the time? Do you think it's with the hope that the person won't receive the call or message right away? 🀷🏼

Back in 2002, Kiyash Monsef made a feature documentary about the online shooter game Counter-Strike & the community of players that had formed around it. He did it with no money & a borrowed camera & somehow managed to pull together the story of a cultural phenomenon that’s rippled out a decade later.

A speech by Ursula K. LeGuin in 1986-So much wisdom that's still valid today about equality & women's rights. I' advocate true equality for everyone, regardless of age, gender, skin color, sexual orientation, religion & all the other superficial distinctions people find to separate themselves from others.

Charles Bukowski can be a bit depressing, but his vision is real, raw and sometimes, as in the first piece, read by the author himself, very amusing.
