#tinkering — Public Fediverse posts

Anyone knows whether RGB strips such as this one can be cut in length? I'm not sure how these work exactly, only that it should be doable. This isn't specifically made for cutting, but… well, I want to (so it fits nicely).

The input is a PC RGB 3-pin header (5V, Data, GND), so some kind of data gets encoded… I can only assume those "C[1..3] pads somehow define the length of it. So my wild assumption would be that moving C3 to C2 and cutting behind L20 works…?

Ah, the Four Thieves Vinegar Collective, nobly fighting for your right to tinker with your own innards like a DIY handyman but totally ignoring the fact that most of us can barely assemble IKEA furniture without losing a screw. 🛠️🧠 Here's to the anarchists who think a YouTube tutorial is all that stands between you and a successful appendectomy. 😂🙃

Asi o 5 verzí později.
Konečně je čas na testovací tisk 🤔
A pak mě čeká ještě panel pro stavové LEDky a ovládací tlačítko. Musím to nějak promyslet, aby tam nezatékala voda🫣

This is a real breakthrough at an unusual time! The Kramer-MC still boots from its ROM and can still write data to its screen RAM. And it does so via the originally intended DS8286 bus driver. This didn't always work because the system bus and internal data bus were still completely shorted. The previous owner didn't finish, even though the computer was prepared for CP/M.
It took a bit of courage to cut the eight data lines near the connector :D Now I think it's working as intended. The boot ROM is active first reset. A flip-flop is activated via pin 37 on the UA855D, which makes the ROM invisible at its /E pin. While the ROM is still active, the parallel RAM can still be written in parallel (shadowing). The data bus is protected by the DS8286. Implemented with a total of 3 TTL ICs (K555LA3, 74LS74, and 74LS138). Awesome.

Držák na kameru otestovaný a čeká na finální tisk a nalepení na helmu.
Nová powerbanka má zatím "jen" nástřel, čekám, až mi přijdou díly, abych si je mohl přeměřit a zakomponovat. Tentokrát jsem vybral 3,7V/4000mAh LiPo článek (14,8Wh) a 2A výstup, takže bych měl být schopný v případě upgradu uživit i žravější kameru, než 5V/500mA.
U téhle verze powerbanky chci víc dbát na voděodolnost a modularitu systému.

🎉 Oh joy, someone bought a DGX Spark and decided it's the perfect gadget for playing StarCraft II and "tinkering" with Darktable 😂. Because why not use a $10,000 supercomputer for running games from 20 years ago? 🚀👾

😆🤖 Murati's Thinking Machines releases a "groundbreaking" 975B parameter model, claiming you can "tinker" with it like a toddler with a toy! 🎉 Meanwhile, it struts around comparing itself to the likes of GPT and GLM as if it's the new Einstein of AI. 😂💡

My goal for 2026 is to manage my digital stuff more effectively on my own (self-hosting)! 😉

That’s why YunoHost is my current project—I’m researching it and narrowing down my options. 😁

I like and need to tinker with digital stuff every now and then—even if it sometimes causes stress and makes me tear my hair out. 😅

So far, @markus has taken care of managing my digital space, which works perfectly and without any issues. 👌

In the future, though, I want to get more involved myself again and learn a thing or two along the way, especially since I’ve been using Linux—specifically Mint (for work) and Arch (for gaming)—in my personal life for a few years now. 😊

Had a successful DIY Saturday—built a split-system air conditioner. It’s supposed to be a bit more effective because it eliminates the negative pressure in the room that otherwise draws warm air back in from outside.

25km on the #ebike this morning — first proper test of the second-hand motor and battery I fitted myself. Battery's only done ~35km all up on this charge and still pulling strong. Cheap parts, a bit of #tinkering, and a good #ride out of it. I'll take that. #cycling #DIY #BikeLife
