Went #shopping for #groceries after bringing my daughter to the #kindergarden, all without burning any dinosaur #cargobike #bicycle #bike #urbancycling #bakfiets

Figuring out how the heck I'll mount this thing in the #server #cabinet...

Haven't seen a #Linux #KernelPanic since like 2005 or something... it has a #qrcode now! Cool!

Here's the #pcb after some manual touches... Let's cut it and put it in the #ferricchloride !

Tiny Acacia's morning routine

#cat #blackcat #fatcat #belly

I finally hung the #repair #manifesto from #ifixit they gave me at #hackadayeurope!
Very few space on the walls around the electronics lab, so I had to cut it a little...

Again on the #3Dprinted #rackmount for the #OpenWRTOne .
I added the #usbc power supply with an #IEC connector, so I can plug it directly into the #ups in the #rack.

Tails.

I just discovered that to resign in #Italy, if you've got young children, you must attend to an interview with an italian #work agency (called Ispettorato Nazionale del Lavoro)... on #MicrosoftTeams . WTF?!? How, exactly, a relationshib between an #italian #citizen and an italian agency is mediated by a #multinational company tied to the most powerful government in the world? Also, one that didn't prove very savy, lately... Sources: https://www.ispettorato.gov.it/servizio/convalida-di-dimissioni-o-risoluzione-consensuale-lavoratrice-madre-o-lavoratore-padre-richiesta-colloquio-on-line/ (download the PDF module and read the part saying "[...] COMUNICO INOLTRE che l'indirizzo email a cui inviare il link per il colloquio online sulla piattaforma Microsoft Teams è il seguente [...]". 🤦 Wonder what @DataKnightmare@mastodon.xyz thinks about it... #microsoft #gafam #digitalsupremacy #italy

I'm sorting some #electronic #components and found these. I'm not sure what they are, they seem very ancient. Nothing written on them, but they are color-coded (like modern resistors). Anyone has a clue?

At the end I succeeded, and I was the second one in the class to do so. Very proud of me, for a time! 🎉 #powerglitching #hacking #hardwarehacking #hackadayeurope #hackaday

...aaaand loaded my image!

I'm printing it. I incremented the #flowrate in the #slicer to be sure there are no gaps and it's actually #waterproof. Also, it's printed in #petg for the same reason. Very bad orientation, it allows to save some plastic but let's hope it will not fail 🫣 #3Dprinting #3Dprinter

It's this one: nice graphic, eh?

Reparing the Fabula. The speaker and battery cables were broken at the soldering point. No idea why. Also, it isn't the first time it happens. They are common Dupont cables cut and soldered (because I need the connector on the other end). They shouldn't be subject to mechanic stress, it seems more like a chimical/oxidation problem... but I have no clue at all...

#electronics #repair #workbench #lab #soldering #opensourcehardware

Assembled!

They had the batteries blocked at the frontier, so I had to improvise 😂

I'm at #hackadayeurope in Lecco!

This week end I'll be at #hackadayeurope . What should I pack? My laptop, of course, and then? Multimeter, breadboards, a couple of MCU? Should I bring the soldering iron? Any project to show?
I'm traveling by motorcycle, so I can bring more than on a plane, but not a lot...

#hackaday @hackaday@hackaday.social #electronics #convention

@stitzl@mastodon.social @alda@topspicy.social heard the same extact thing at work. The worst part is, I didn't hear it from an executive, but from a developer...

@Unixbigot @smellsofbikes oooh cool tha ks! Tantalium caps, then! I'll try to measure them tonight, just out of curiosity! I _seem_ to remember having seen them in old radios when I was a child.

@cassidy@mastodon.blaede.family @AberDerBart@chaos.social this is VERY cool!!!

When I was at #hackadayeurope 2026 I received my #communicator #badge with a #3Dprinted back cover. I'd like to modify and re-print it, but it seems the 3D model is not available in the #git repo: https://github.com/Hack-a-Day/2025-Communicator_Badge
Does anyone have a clue on where to find the 3D model or at least the STL?

Wow, that's NEAR.

#Artemis2 #nasa #moon

At #hackaday kickoff #party, playing with veeeeeery big cameras!

It's this one! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KSvjJGbFCws

@justdude@mastodon.nl yeah, i'll probably need to learn crimping the connectors myself...

@rc2014@oldbytes.space it seems I've got a good deal for these two, then! 8€ each at the local electronics fair last month. There was a box full of them, I should have bought more...

@joe @nikcorg The obvious choice would be a Bullitt, it's fairly easy to find them also used if you will, at least here in Europe... I suggest you to avoid Panda Bike, they are cheap, but I've got a pretty bad experience with one of these (had to spend almost the same of the original price in upgrades to make it useable and safe to ride...).

@synx508 cool! That's a period-accurate capacitance meter!

@synx508 I didn't think the straight one could be a capacitor as well! I tought of an inductance or small value resistor due to the shape. Nice to know, thanks!

@IzzyOnDroid i know... :/ Anyway, just to say that I succeeded at last to report. Hope it helps... 🤷‍♂️

@IzzyOnDroid the reporting page is mysteriously broken...

@dianea yeah, they have a cool post-cold-war aesthetic!

@elsaglug@mastodon.uno It's a good idea. Also, most of the principles are the same!

@bbeaker@toot.community oh, that's probable. They appear copper-colored, but the price was low, so they may very well be aluminium...

@bbeaker@toot.community good point! I use a lot of flux, and usually clean the residues with IPA, expecially when I solder to a PCB. I may have not done the same with these joints... but I didn't change anything in the way I work (even still using same solder and flux) and this didn't happen in the past. Maybe this cables are just too thin...

@elsaglug@mastodon.uno BELLE!!!!!

The #solareclipse as seen from the #mountain house.
Yes, the sun is behind that giant cloud...

@kreynen the sorting is not finished, btw tomorrow when i'll be back home I'll post some pictures :)

@them oh, cool table! I'm gonna save it!

@janbeta that was my first hypothesys for the bottom ones, but the top one seems different... maybe a very low value resistance? Don't plan on using them, btw, just curious!

There's an hole at the top to place a wood screw in. The idea is to be able to change the activation point screwing/unscrewing it

It's made by two parts: the right one floats in the water and can move inside the left one. It should push on the switch stem when the water level is high, and release it when it's too low.

@jmp49152@mastodon.social sorry didn't see the message! I soldered two standard male headers to the speaker, for now, so I can use standard dupont cables. Let's see if it will last!

...and now on the high speed #train ! #trenitalia #frecciarossa #florence #railway #station
