@libreture im trying to access my OPDS feed, but I can only seem to download it when im already logged into the browser. Trying to enter my credentials after being prompted never works. Tried on Firefox and Brave. Any advise?

@libreture turns out I was using my username instead of email. Got it working

New #eReaderCarrierBoard & #eReaderHat #UI features. Now you can add a #calibreserver directly from the #GUI. Not the prettiest design, but its functional. #selfhosting you're own book server is slowly becoming more practical.

@libreture @hackaday very cool! I'm planning on playing around with this

@libreture @hackaday is there a workaround for the bug

Should hashtags show up on my pixelfed feed? Im only seeing followers. Am I doing something wrong? @pixelfed

@dansup @pixelfed do you need help? I found this issue (www.github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/4485) but it doesn't.have any associated PRs or comments from contributors.

So in Confederation America (1780s) there was the Anarchiad, a satiric epic poem that for the most part is tedious because I’m not into that kind of literature.

However, there are chunks of it motivated by extremely Confederation problems, like fighting over whether or not paper money should be accepted and/or states should be able to issue their own.

@BertL @GrittyLipids @stephenwhq @histodons @bookstodon I've also heard people (I respect mind you) say it was about "economics" like free labor isn't an economic incentive.

Quality of life update for the #eReaderHat Now fetching #ebooks from the #calibreserver is a background task so you can keep #reading as your #books download.

While the software is a mess I think the next step is making a similar carrier board for the #raspberrypi #CM4 form factor.

I'm also considering submitting this to the @hackaday prize for gits and shiggles. Should I?

@hackaday @joeycastillo I caved. Here's the hackaday project page for the #eReaderHat: https://hackaday.io/project/192366-floss-book-serving-system

First project log is up to. I didn't actually call it the eReaderHat because that's just the current software. Soliciting name recommendations

A great opening line invites the reader in by suggesting a new adventure waits ahead, hence engaging their curiosity...

I think I found the "perfect cheap" Chinese microscope for inspection and soldering. 7" 1080p IPS display, HDMI out, large working distance, battery powered (i.e. portable).

I'll share more details soon. It took a lot AliExpress/Alibaba digging to find it. I paid about $100 😮. 🔬 #DIY #Repair #electronics

@mike how long have you had it? Does it seems like it'll survive a couple projects?

extralongdivision,
@extralongdivision@toot.io avatar

@mike I like that its compact and portable. I guess its a trade off

Revision riverboat keeps rollin' down the river 🚢🔄⚙️🔧🔍💡

parts are inexpensive and plentiful...which means we can actually get to bringing back some classic products that didn't make it through the shortage. like our 2.8" resistive touch shield https://www.adafruit.com/product/1651 which originally used the STMPE811 - now discontinued https://blog.adafruit.com/2021/03/16/the-great-search-resistive-touch-screen-driver-replacement-for-stmpe610-stmpe811-thegreatsearch-digikey-digikey-adafruit/ -
