Thread 105939818

Messing with software and electronics for fun, personalizing things well beyond their intended purpose
Share code, projects, circuits, ricing, themes, mods, patches, whatever
Time to relight the passion for creation and customization, to be more than a zombie consumer

Did you really have to start with a lain pic?

>>105939855
What's wrong with a lain pic?

Sisters, I was dilating today and I accidentally let the bottle break inside my vagina, now bits of blood and shit are leaking out everywhere!

Any technology to help with this?

Godspeed OP.
However I worry that the topic is a bit too vague and broad. People already have generals for ricing, dpt, diy, home screens, etc.

>>105939881
/dpt/ is a little dead since schizos ruined that general
I think that being broad attracts more people while the general doesn't have a proper culture yet

>>105939871
lain is transcoded, using the term tinkering is transcoded in the worst way possible, your thread is too broad and vague and is already covered by other generals, /diy/ has more meaningful discussion on DIY electronics projects.

>is a little dead since schizos
The whole board is dead because you children accuse everyone of being a "schizo" is they post any form of truth and then you wonder why all the old informed posters leave.

You shit where you eat then complain about the taste. Also everything doesn't need a "general". Generals were always cancer but since you're all discord addicted new fags you don't understand how forums/boards are supposed to work. You desire everything be a fucking chat room.

>>105939818 (OP)
I wanna make a desktop GUI for a simple sonar (Ultrasonic Sensor + Servo rotating 180 degrees + Raspberry Pi Pico 2). Any recommendations for the library/framework to use for it?

Sisters any tips on tinkering my rose toy so it works again?

>>105939818 (OP)
I sympathize with you OP. But as you can judge by the responses you got, 4chan is not the place to talk about this topic.
On 4chan we talk only about sponsored products

>>105939818 (OP)
how do I tinker with my genitals?

>>105939979
"leave" where do they go? i wanna be with the sane posters

>>105939965
Not going to abandon something I like just because some people are heads deep on culture wars

>>105939979
By "schizos", I mean the guy who keep spamming registry dumper and similar, people who really don't want to have a discussion other than praising their own things
In ~2020 4chan slang that would be "narcissist" or "psycho" instead of "schizo"

>>105940000
I heard of people making GUIs in C with Tcl/Tk, but I never used it myself
A fun thing is to make a GUI in python and connect to the project through a simple command-line API if you don't mind python

>>105940046
Just hide them, virtue is not meant to be hidden, it's stronger than foolery

>>105939818 (OP)
I bet theres a similar general to this in >>>/diy/

>>105939818 (OP)
OP I'll give you an actual response. I made a microwave gun out of my Grandparent's old microwave that died after 40+ years of use. Then I used it to show my Uncle he was a retard. He kept going on and on about how RF isn't harmful and doesn't cause cancer. So last Christmas I plugged my homemade microwave gun into the mains and pointed it at him. Then I made him admit he was wrong before I was willing to turn it off.

It burns pretty badly although it isn't anywhere near as impressive as what the military and local PD has.

>>105940046

I will post my project once I get home

Man I miss when 4chan users were more like you, based retard

>>105940161
It was fun project and I did it in an afternoon with crap I had laying around in the garage. Going to build another one soon and hopefully clean up my horrible wiring job and rig up a more handheld unit. I like pointing it at random shit and frying it from across the room.

I also built one of those small usb devices that store power from the port then send it back frying the port and sometimes the entire device (chink shit isn't built that well). It looks like a thumb drive so I sometimes stick it into people's laptops and consoles if they piss me off. Thinking about making a bunch of them and dropping them in random parking lots every time I go to town.

I don't really like being actively destructive but the state of modern society is so depressing and people are so rude that sometimes I like to screw with them. I also built a joystick that plugs into any device over usb. If you hold down a certain button combo it'll make any Windows OS throw BSoD. Didn't even do it on purpose. The drivers that come with Windows are so shit it can't handle the Xbox or Playstation mode or whatever holding down that button forces the PCB into. I even managed to crash an Xbox One with it.

>>105940206
Usbkillers are funny, I remember when there were a media scare about them, since some motherboards were pretty weak against it and would get completely fried
Try not making things too personal, it's more fun when done for giggles
Making a system BSoD by broken hardware input I never thought about it, interesting that someone could really make something malicious if they discover a buffer overflow or something

>>105939965
There's pretty much nothing sexual in lain; neither the anime, nor the visual novel. The topic of suicide comes up, but that's nothing unheard of. Next thing you know trannies will start saying that Dostoevsky or Vonnegut are "transcoded" and you people will fall for that too. This isn't about trannies. It's like kids bickering at school, calling someone a fag for liking sailor moon instead of g.i. joe.
>oh, cute girls doing cute things? Sorry bro, I don't watch TRANIME, I only watch MMA and bodybuilding podcasts because I'm totally straight

>>105940284
The Brook PCBs for building your own joystick that supports multiple consoles+PC comes like this by default. At least the firmware in the one I bought back in 2017 or so did. If you force Xbox 360 mode (I think) it'll make any Windows machine bluescreen including later versions of the Xbox console.

It has auto detect mode which works fine most of the time. Except for Nintendo's Switch. You have to hold down the A button (I think) for it to detect it correctly.

I know it's that board because I tested it a lot before I wired up two PCBs and a switch to toggle between them. Since the other one works better for Xbox 360 consoles (1ms input lag vs. 5+ms) and that other pcb works for a ton of older stuff. Can't remember what it's called now. Was really popular in the 360 era of Street Fighter tournaments so there used to be a ton of them on the used market.

Ironically, I barely play video games anymore so I got more fun out of building the thing that I did using it.

what does transcoded mean?

>>105940507
ffmpeg

>>105940507
means the code was made for a different architecture and was transposed into it. Usually DIY software migrating, almost never works tho. 40% of all transcoded software shits itself after transitioning.

>>105940551
>>105940560
ok

>>105940560
Transcoding is not transpilation you absolute brainlet.

you niggers have any pdfs on how to work an arduino? preferably dumbed down to low iq ppl like me

>>105939979
Are you crying about GrapheneOS, still? Again?

You played with dolls, too, because you're not a fag? Fucking moron

Anyone willing to provide their Absolute Retards' Guide to Setting Up A Remote Jellyfin Server with step by step instructions that don't make leaping and sweeping jumps to conclusions.

>>105940760
literal female dolls, tho. you played with girl dolls so that doesn't make you a fag and makes you straight, right?

>>105939818 (OP)
I'm watching Lain for the first time, and it's reminding me of all those concepts that were talked about around the Internet and technology in the late 1990s. It's making me miss Web 1.0 and 2.0, and resent what we have now. Concepts like cyberspace, cybercultures, the global village. That somewhat naïve and deeply pessimistic—yet perhaps accurate—vision of how interconnection and the information age would affect us first as a society, and then individually.

>>105941002

nah idc anymroe keep shitting up the board with the transexualism

Am I the only one who prefers to use avr-gcc over arduino IDE? Doing it low level is more comfy

>>105941378
I never used avr-gcc but Arduino IDE seemed weird for me. I had no idea what it was actually doing.
I am using esp-rs/esp-idf-template for my projects and even though it automatically configures everything, I can look into the exact process of compilation and upload which is nice.

>>105939965
AGGHH TRANNYYY!
It's all so tiring

>>105941478
Arduino IDE feels strange and messy to me, unless it's for prototyping
I have tried esp-idf, but didn't do much with it yet

>>105939818 (OP)
good thread

I'll share a little trick like the other guys in this thread

Last summer some native fuck smashed my garage door with a fence post and almost got in. The door know was intact, but the frame was crack good.

I secured the deadbolt latch and reinforced it with steel.

The /g/ part, the best part, is I've armed the door knob with mains electricity. A light comes on so I know if it's armed, and I have a big sign saying "danger, do not enter.".

Haven't caught any natives yet.

>>105941530
sounds like that could cause problems if a fireman, emt or police ever try to get in

>>105939965
>transcoded
--xe says while using coded as a suffix.

haha what the FUCK is this mongoloidery? next you'll create the GENITAL MUTILATION general am i rite....fucking NIGGERS.

h-h-how's it goin bros im tryna change the screen on my trannypad t420 what lcd controller should i buy huh tell me pwease ><

How did /g/ fall this far?

Wrong thread faggot

Reposting my project from /diy/

Some time ago, someone has showed me a kind of gadget/toy that is an essentially a fast changing led strip that you can wave around to create patterns and do light painting. It was ridiculously expensive though, so I have decided with a friend to make on ourselves since it seemed pretty easy to do.
Today I finished second prototype. It uses ESP32 to drive a led strip that allows for an external clock so it can get much faster than typical addressable strip. For now I'm using bitbanging for testing so it's only 150 fps, but with SPI this should allow for much more detailed patterns, especially if you swing it around on a rope.(I think it should support up to 3000 fps IIRC)
The circuit is quite simple, just the esp board, BMS, stabilizer, capacitors and buttons and leds.
The software is in Rust and supports both generated patterns and raw rgb images.

>>105941864
And the photos I managed to take.

Unfortunately, my chandelier suffered some collateral damage and then some solders broke off in the process so I can't make more right now.

>>105941793
There's a push against customization and tinkering by bad organizations and individuals, since it enables the user and makes him less of a passive consumer

>>105941843

If you buy clone stuff (e.g. arduinos) the mcu is still the real thing right?

>>105942188
Yes, it's an open hardware
Nobody buys official arduinos since they are very costly

>>105941615
Yep, they better read the sign

>>105942219
Why couldn't chinks just clone and produce a chip and sell it as a genuine?

>>105942292
No point on that, they can just make arduinos since it's an open hardware
It's not something like a pirate clone, in fact you are even encouraged to make your own custom arduino board

>>105942328
>>105942292
https://store.arduino.cc/products/arduino-uno-rev3

>>105942328
Yeah but the chip itself?

>>105942405
ATmega328? It's cloned a lot, making another microcontroller would be complicated since you also have to make the software for it (assembler, c compiler and libraries), an convince people into using it

I want to make a terminal gui without ncurses, but there's so many different terminals to support

>>105943288
The only terminal you need to worry about is xterm-256color desu

I've been working on my home network recently. I think I might have too many switches and not enough hardware to test what I'd like.
So I'm going to make a few pis fight eachother for dominance. I need to make some sort of pcap realtime visualizer, but I'm not a coder. Do these already exist?

>>105943317
I'm thinking about adding support to just the few more common
I know TERM="linux" is for ttys for example, but not sure if there's some other weird terminals widely used today

>>105943333
You mean something like wireshark?

>>105943369
I mean you can just use the usual ANSI escape codes and it should work on basically every terminal, you don't need to even read the $TERM variable (just check that stdout is a tty)
>>105943333
Wireshark does this, and it has CLI stuff available and libraries to use from other languages

>>105943369
wireshark is what I use already
I mean something like an nginx display to show what's winning and at what time

>>105943382
Problem is that some terminals don't have color support for example, while others have support to rgb colors

>>105943384
I don't know much about the network part sadly, you might need to write a python script or find a program that does something similar

Got a Nextbook Next7P tablet from 2011, a 5th generation Fire Tablet from 2015, and a 4th generation iPad from 2012 that I want to try to make all usable.

>>105943418
>some terminals don't have color support for example
terminals that don't support the 8/16 basic colors are very very very rare

>>105943424
You may be right, supporting stuff like rgb might be something for the future, or an unnecessary flex
What do you think about unicode?

>>105943419
Nextbook and firetab shouldn't be a problem. What issues are you running into?
4th gen iPad might be unusable.

>>105943447
just go for utf-8 support it's the standard basically everywhere

>>105943454
Nextbook is old and running android 2.3.1. So no internet access. Is surprisingly snappy tho. Also battery is fucked so needs to be plugged in. Firetab is just restricted with fireOS. Think it’s running 5.7.0 or something. The 4th gen iPad I feel I could get some good use if I jailbreak it. It’s running iOS 10.3.4. Was planning on using the iPad as a e-reader since it had the biggest screen. Only issue is it’s a bit heavy.

>>105943492
Does the Nextbook have a firmware you can sideload that has internet? If not it might be a write your own firmware issue. AOSP 2 had internet if I'm not mistaken. To get around the battery I've used old emergency chargers previously, might fry it or cause a house fire.
FireOS 5.7 is fine, you can flash it to an android version from xda if it won't do what you like. I've bricked a few devices but not to unrecoverable points.
Jailbreaking iOS devices is really hit and miss in my experience. I've had it work a few times and fail most times. Good luck

>>105943456
Thanks anon, gonna do that then

bump!

I'm just a zombie consumer now. I will consume data with playwright, consume UI with react, and use an actual humidifier rather than building a humidity detector

knowledge about webdl, tell me everything you know

im thinking about getting a devkit for a lumus maximus. it looks like it'd be cool to program some AR experiments with it like being given stats and feedback while playing basketball or guitar.
