@jacqueline <3 Thanks for all your help building my Tangara! I thought some pins might be appreciated :D

Off on a road trip with the #tangara as company!

@jacqueline you legend! I’ll flash that tonight :) I was wondering if that was my average soldering on the lcd… reflowing it this morning indeed fixed the brightness issue 🥰

@jacqueline Alright so I've finally done this - but getting an error while building. Any ideas? 🤔

Hey @itsfoss - This you?
What a difference a year makes, huh?

Bit weird. Maybe have a lie down.

#linux #ubuntu

Also It's FOSS, sorry, IT'S FOSS, GETTING IRRATIONALLY ANGRY ABOUT THE SAME SOFTWARE.

@popey @gregsie @itsfoss fine to wrap apt in a gui, but what’s up with all this flat pack / snap crap?

I finally did it. Switched my laptop distro from Mint XFCE to Debian KDE

@stfn that’s my absolute favourite combo 🥰 tried most of them, but straight Deb with Plasma is perfection.

@jacqueline have you considered adding an ai dj into #tangara to capitalise on the hype?
It could randomly choose songs owned by big record labels and play them more, then upload the plays when Tangara is plugged into a computer. You could then charge users royalties to play their songs, and collect heaps from these big record companies - go public, sell shares, and profit? Thoughts?

taylorhayis,
@taylorhayis@mastodon.world avatar

@jacqueline the original ai 🥰
On a less joke note - how does the shuffle algorithm work? Pure rand? (Could it theoretically play the same song twice in a row?)

My #tangara parts arrived today from PCBWay! Thanks @jacqueline for the incredible work. Sensational stuff. Just waiting on my Tigard jtag flasher now to get the software on it!

#jlcpcb has now officially announced the multi-color silkscreen service.

I've had access to it for about a week and have been working on a @kicad plugin. It almost kinda works now 😁

I really loved the aesthetic of the game Cyberpunk 2077, so I decided to model and make a handheld radio from the game, and add an Arduino powered oled user interface to a cheap Chinese ham radio! I’m really happy with the final result! I used digital pins to trigger an analog switch, to directly control all the buttons on the radio. A bit ghetto - but it works well for devices that aren’t otherwise easily hackable

The new Tangara prototype case showed up! Like the last one, it’s translucent polycarbonate that’s been CNC’d and bead-blasted.

(This one is the @ErinRose special; she’s pulled the case sides in further, fixed the button reliability, done a bunch of CNC optimisation work, and overall made it look nice.)

Same, but the cases are now standing up to show the difference in length as well.
The case halves, showing the insides, on a desk. They’re translucent, as the post-CNC bead-blasted finish leaves a lightly-textured surface

@buzzyrobin @ErinRose

I love the look of the blasted polycarb! I made a Cyberpunk radio a while back, and I'm working on a Tangara case inspired by it

Some Lactarius deliciosus foraged near my house. My favourite prep is brining in soy sauce, garlic and MSG, then dehydrating into a jerky type snack 🤤 #FungiFriday #fungi
