  1. Mandatory hardware checkpoint: Bad Apple on the 0.96" OLED. 📺

    But plot twist: this isn't pre-loaded on the flash memory. I'm actively streaming the frames live over Wi-Fi from a web browser on my laptop to an ESP8266. It handles live camera feeds and a drawing canvas too!

  2. Ah yes, let's casually "fork the web" as if it's a backyard barbecue 🍖—because rewriting the entire internet sounds like a weekend DIY project. 🙄 With 18.3 MiB of "simplicity" to start, who knew web development was as easy as assembling #IKEA furniture? 🛠️

  3. Před několika roky jsem poprvé na YouTube objevil kanál francouzského kutila, který tvořil plno různých mechanických strojů z mosazi. Vždycky jsem ale že všeho nejvíc obdivoval rytiny, které byl na strojích schopný vytvořit.

    Často jsem si říkal, že bych to taky rád uměl. Když jsem ale hledal rytecké nástroje na kov, většinu času jsem, jako zázrakem, skončil u čínských dlát.

    Tak jsem si řekl, že si udělám vlastní. Na obrázku je výsledek mého prvního pokusu.

    Na kov to bude chtít ještě vylepšit kalení, je to moc měkké.

    Zatím to svadím na nedostatečnou teplotu. Acetylový hořák se mi nevyplatí, budu muset vymyslet nějakou alternativu, třeba plynovou pec. Teď ještě sehnat hořák, který by to přežil.

    Na linoryt je to ale dobrý. :))

  4. 🛠️ Wow, a DIY project to satisfy those ultra-unique personal whims – because clearly, the world needed another Asciidoc parser! 😂 Using Rust, because why not mix unnecessary complexity with redundancy? 🚴📚

  5. The Great T-Nut Shortage 🪛 | 10 Observatories in 10 Weeks – Week 6

    Week 6 at Starview Farm was pure build chaos — we cranked out the last four base frames, clad them, and finally got roofs on the four observatories that had been waiting way too long for cover.

    It was all going smoothly… until we hit The Great T-Nut Shortage of 2025.
    Progress screeched, bolts dangled, and we questioned every hardware store within a 100 km radius.

    Between clear, moonless nights and endless steel connector plates, we somehow kept the momentum going — proving once again that sleep is optional, but T-Nuts are not.

  7. Why Did I Build a Dome 3,000km From Home?? (I’m Still Not Sure)

    So... I kinda said yes to building an entire observatory dome... on the other side of Australia.

    Everyone said we were insane. No crew. No backup. Just a dome, a dream, and way too many snacks.

    This video is pure chaos: assembling a giant research-grade observatory from scratch, battling time, tools, and the Australian sun. We got sunburnt, we got stuck, and yes — we had at least one breakdown (maybe two).

    But in the end? The dome stands. And we’re kinda proud of it.

    Was it smart? Debatable.
    Did we finish it? You’ll see.
    Was it worth it? 1000%.

  8. Another step in learning to program microcontrollers. The first project is on hold for now while I wait for the ordered capacitors to arrive, so I decided to do something else in the meantime and coded a mini Space Invaders clone on ESP32 from scratch. 😉
