Oh that's a good idea, I do have a WiFi LED bulb in the room, I could use that! Why didn't I think of that...

I'll take you up on it, just remember to give me the operating instructions along with it.

That VGA output is a fantastic hack, I think Bitluni on YouTube made it (or did a lot of work popularizing it).

Oh maaaan, hey! I'll get you on Discord.

Yep, that's what the LED functionality was supposed to do (no light for sleep, light for "wake up"), but the lack of a good UI option deterred me from adding it.

Congratulations, and my condolences!

Yes but I need to make a baby first. BRB.

Yes, I'm fairly certain it is. We switched to the SaaS because of that, it wasn't worth the hassle of self-hosting when you get all the responsibility and still pay the same price.

Thanks for the link! I don't know, he asked for information initially, I sent him a reply almost immediately and then he just never replied. I don't know if my messages end up in spam, it doesn't seem very likely that he&#x27

Hmm good point, I think I have a red transparent plastic I can use, thanks!

Thanks, Jacek! Yeah, I did think of adding a color that's less offensive, but blue/white is all I had available at the time. Since I ended up using this a lot, you make a good point, I should order a red one. > On a tangent, th

It's so functional, it's almost a hyperthalamus.

Oh, is he the CEO? Didn't know that, thanks!

Thanks! I have a Wanhao Duplicator i3, but it's a few years old now. The good thing about 3D printers is that they're so simple they just won't get obsolete, since they're 99% software. I think the current recommendation

How would that help? You still have to pay the license fee...

I was going for a "Chinese wisdom" thing, but it was hard to evoke "Sun Tzu" with "Sun Inc". I really hope that's what the other posters got, or I'll be embarrassed :P

That's interesting, I'll try it out (I have Android Studio installed so I should be good to build), thanks!

by StavrosK 6y ago
Yeah, it's a pretty simple build, which makes it much better because the payoff is large compared to the work. I didn't need an internal temperature sensor because I have a hypothalamus, but the rest sounds great!

Yeah, since I need to be getting weather updates I'll definitely be using NTP. 5% is pretty bad, though, that's more than an hour off a day. I guess it's not bad for short durations, and I'm assuming it mainly uses it so

I wasn't aware of projection clocks, thanks! I sleep on my side or in a prone position, so a projection clock wouldn't help me, unfortunately.

That's what I get for not reading the datasheet more carefully, I guess. Thanks, I'll switch to that, I have a bunch of bare modules.

Blind ers ! Thank you!

I think the first email was ~8 months ago, but I don't know how long the Pico launch has been brewing for.

So you're suggesting some sort of servo-controlled horse blinders, interesting.

That works, it'd just be a bit clunky. I already have a board that supports a battery, so I'll probably use that instead.
