that was fun to solder

it did work in the end so that was nice

Nice.

I've been looking at those kits.

Not that I need a component tester per se.

But unlike most of those kits, it's actually useful.

_not that i need ..._ goes for pretty much everything i buy

Not just a hideous clock that goes out of sync in a matter of hours.

Spoke to IBuyGou about the Note 4 64gb Global version, they say it has been delayed for the time being and they don't know when it will actually come out "I guess maybe because the new product. It's said that xiaomi will released a new phone at the end of this month." They speculate it's been delayed because of the Xiaomi Lanmi (Blue Rice) "Not sure the final name, but it should be that phone." they also added that this new line won't phase out the Redmi instead it will be a more expensive line of phones "It said that it should be more expensive than Redmi phones. The new phone may have the similar price with Mi 6." @onoderaSecurity @Make @Deleted User @Phatique

i'll just see a part and go _oh it's like $2 for 100 of them and maybe i'll need some in the future so better order now and not have to wait when i do_

Yeah.

please god let there be a 5" lanmi versionj

with USB-C and NFC

then you get 20 ATtiny84's, the seller is too cheap to send them in a tube, they arrive with half the pins bent and aliexpress gives you a 50% refund <:alismirk:230784726615588865> <:aliOK:251417852156837888>

Been looking to buy some knock-off Arduino stuff.

roboduino or whatever their name is makes the best ones i believe, but they're slightly more expensive than the very cheapest ones

Eh. I think for my current needs... even the stuff I'm looking at is way, way overkill.

@Phatique probably will

you can never have enough microcontrollers

I wonder if those ATtiny84s would be sufficient for my needs. Hm hm.

Actually, feck it. I just want the HID stack ease of the Leonardo type boards.

someone wrote a usb implementation for those attiny85's

the usb stick at the top and the cheapo pcb usb port in the middle are actually attiny85's too

Hm hm.

I have two projects in mind at the moment. Firstly, I bought a tenkeyless mech, and realized I actually *did* use the numpad.

Or rather, 3-4 of the buttons. To control LiveSplit. 😄

As such, a custom li'l speedrunning USB device that just sends some easy-peasy keystrokes would be neato.

I was also a bit pissed. I ordered a small batch of microswitches from a vendor on Ali. The only one that sold them. (Knockoff OMRON B3FS-1000)

They removed them from their inventory after I placed the order. :/

So my plan to check them out and order more if they met my requirements... poof. Out the window.

you could get one of the digispark things then, since they come with the usb connector on the pcb

and with the v-usb library you can emulate a keyboard

oh it was robotdyn not roboduino

I'll have a look at this stuff, for sure.

A closer look, that is. I have opened plenty of tabs already... 😄

my life

What's that, like 60 tabs or so?
