2·15 days agoYou’ve convinced me to learn and implement OTA on my 8266. Thanks!
I stopped commenting on YouTube videos when they stopped showing me a list of connects i made in the past.
For those looking to learn Spanish, find her:
Someone please just create an easy to follow DIY front light using diffused LED strip for my old kindle and I’m good for another decade. My Kindle even has power out pins on the back to make it easy.
Because you love the pain that comes with pulling your own hair out, one fistful at a time.
Just get the right glue:
- A spoon of TomYum Soup paste (spicy ground shrimp basically)
- Diced onions and bell peppers added raw once the ramen is off the heat. Adds crunch with taste
- Any of my favourite cup soup mix, mostly hot and sour
Sadly, strawberry season is gone where I am and I can’t wait to try this out. This year, i discovered that coriander goes very well with strawberries to make pesto. I ate 10 times more strawberries this year than my previous average.
If you are going the phone way and care to make the battery last longer, you can also install an app that keeps waiting to receive a keyword by SMS, upon receiving which it turns the GPS on, locates itself and sends the location back by SMS. It has dual benefit of not needing a data pack and making the battery last longer since the GPS or data is not on constantly. On the down side it’ll be tough to do live tracking by this approach.

These are just two links that came up using a basic search to do this. There are multiple listings on f-droid to help you not just get location but control the phone remotely over SMS.

Yeah, this is why our AI image generators create kooky images sometimes. /s?
I’m really sad VR went the way it did over the past decade. I was blown away with the simplicity and affordability of it when Google Cardboard launched. The standalone VR devices of today could have been just our current phones put inside head mounted brackets: easily available to most of us for cheap.
Besides gaming, VR has loads of cool educational uses. I find myself repeatedly going back to Google Earth VR on my Vive just to explore (both in 3D and street view mode) random places that I might never visit in real life.
I used to use Selenium extension on Chrome to test my applications for Chrome compatibility. Chrome said they are disabling it now. Do you not want web applications to be easily tested for Chrome compatibility, Google?
No, I wanted to bring out the irony. Maybe an ‘‽’ would have been better than the ‘?’ I put at the end of my comment.
Didn’t their prime minister recently use a VPN to congratulate Trump on X, which is blocked from access by the same govt?
I do this with AAs. Basically put the side with the bump (positive) on the tip of the tongue and touch the flat (negative) side with a wet finger. It gives out a mild but distinctive ‘taste’, not enough to tingle but definitely something I am able to notice, when the cell has decent juice.
Yes, i think squid proxy would do the trick too. It even has installers for windows.
Look at the silver lining. At least their computers must have escaped the recent windows BSOD.
ViMusic has not been updated in quite some time. RiMusic is actively being developed.
I think a Pi is an overkill for this. If I were to attempt this, i would try getting it done with an ESP8266 module which uses far less power, making the battery last much longer. Bootup and shutdown times would be much less so using coin cells or supercapacitors charged using small solar panels could also be used. If your home is not too far (few km), using LoRa could eliminate dependency on the WiFi. Cool use case, nonetheless!
