#RaspberryPi

36 posts33 participants0 posts today

Finished building my new hardwired split mechanical keyboard this weekend! #3dprinted based on my own design, spray painted and powered by a pair of Raspberry Pi Pico W’s. Of course, it’s running my fave #keyboard firmware #KMK! Sadly #CircuitPython doesn’t yet support BLE on the PicoW so it’s not wireless yet, but I’m just counting down the days!

(more details in the image alt text!)

I just bought a (used) #RaspberryPi 4 with 8GB of RAM for 220 MYR (~52 USD), with free shipping - it came with a cooler, a really nice metallic case, a power supply, a 32GB #Samsung microSD card, and even a Micro HDMI cable. What a pretty freaking good deal, no?

Looking back at my receipt for my previous Pis, I got the RPi 4 2GB RAM for 174 MYR in Jan 2021, and the RPi 4 4GB RAM version for 269 MYR in July 2023 - these were the Pis alone without any cooler, SD card, etc. I'm so happy with this, I might actually get another one lol.

It took ages to get my garage door manager working properly, and only after going back to the very very basics with the Raspberry Pi controls.

Kinda 😤🙈🤦 moment but also explained why I spent a few days with the code trying everything possible and blaming my skills I couldn’t get it running.

Turns out the culprit was just this one loose cable connection which was not visible but behind a panel.

#piSpot Projekt.

Ursprünglich war gedacht mittels #RaspAP und #PiHole einen mobilen Hotspot zu bauen.

Mögliche Internetquellen sollten sein
#eth, #wlan, #wwan + optinal #vpn oder/und #Tor.

#RaspberryPi und #RaspberryPiPico sind als Ziel-Hardware gedacht.

Captive Registrierung sollte automatisch erfolgen und im Passwort-Zweifel auch vom Terminal aus bedient werden können.

Ich hatte das zu 90% ziemlich schnell realisiert - und schon 2 Tage lang in der Stadt alle möglichen Wlan getestet.

#retrocomputing experiment

I set up a #RaspberryPi to run like an old Unix terminal, writing documents in #troff

Everything went well until I needed to view a PDF document. I found a program that can use the frame buffer to display images and PDFs. Works great!

You can do modern things at the console, you just need to use different tools to get there. 🤓

Here's my article:

Both.orgViewing PDF documents in console mode - Both.orgI have a Raspberry Pi 3 that’s sat unused for the last few years. I used to run the Raspberry Pi as a personal “home server,” such as a printer server to share my old “offline” laser printer on my home WiFi. But ever since I bought a new printer a few years ago, I haven’t had a good use…
