Радио почти из ничего. Самодельные радиодетали 1920-х. Детекторы
В продолжение путешествия к истокам радио (самодельные резисторы 1920-х [1], самодельные конденсаторы 1920-х [2]) мы с тобой, дорогой читатель, обратим свой взгляд на тогдашние детекторы — важнейший элемент любого долампового радио, выделяющий из радиочастотных колебаний звуковой сигнал. Какие же существовали материалы и конструкции детекторов, пригодных для изготовления скудными средствами среднестатистического энтузиаста-любителя радио? Чем последнего, в этом смысле могла порадовать отечественная промышленность? Во времена, когда ещё не существовало готовых фабричных элементов-полупроводников, когда самым сложным инструментом в арсенале радиомастера, вероятнее всего, мог быть простой электрический паяльник, да и само сетевое электричество водилось не во всяком доме.

Приветствую всех!
Пожалуй, самыми странными среди домофонов являются не какие-то раритетные экземпляры с оптическими или магнитными ключами, а «локальные» модели, выпускавшиеся одним предприятием для одного города или региона. В самом деле, столь странных конструктивных решений, какие встречаются там, порой не встретить больше нигде. Про пару таких девайсов я уже рассказывал, и вот ко мне попал очередной — некий «Форвард» весьма странного вида и с не менее странной схемотехникой.
Итак, в сегодняшней статье посмотрим на один из самых распространённых в Сибири домофонов. Заодно узнаем, зачем в нём RTC и батарейка, как его оживить и что ещё отличает его от привычных нам...

TinyCard Game Maker 2
This is an updated version of TinyCard, a simple text game maker to allow children to create short adventure games, interactive stories, surveys, or quizzes:
The TinyCard text game maker based on a 160x128 colour TFT display
and an ATtiny3224.
Two features that users of the original version of TinyCard Game Maker requested were: the ability to make games with a random element, and the ability to keep a score and display its value. This update addresses these requests:
You can put multiple codes before a prompt; pressing the corresponding button will jump to one of the cards chosen at random; see Random choices. You...Virtual Precision Clock

Bambu Lab is abusing the open source social contract
Last year I said I'd probably never recommend another Bambu Lab printer again.
I still use my P1S, but after Bambu Lab started pushing their always-connected cloud solution as the new default:
I blocked the printer from the Internet via my OPNsense Firewall I stopped updating the firmware I locked the printer into Developer mode I deleted Bambu Studio and started using OrcaSlicerI had to do that to keep it under my control, instead of Bambu's.
Shocking disclosure, 20 volts to be exact
Hey everyone, we’d like to make a public disclosure to the community about a product currently selling on the PineStore website (pine64.com).
The current Desktop PinePower V2 batch has an issue where in some situations the USB-C ports will report “0V” when there is obviously something attached. In reality it is actually outputting the correct voltage.
This has been fixed for future batches, but the current batch still has stock available. There is no fix available for affected Desktop PinePower V2 batches as the MCU can only be flashed at the factory. We have no ETA when the fixed batch will start...
HomePod mini feels like magic, but it's just good timing
Apple introduced the HomePod mini six years ago, in 2020.
I'm not one into smart speakers, but the feature that made me take a closer look was their ability to form stereo pairs, without any direct wired connection.
I know there are other speaker manufacturers with wireless speakers, but to my knowledge, Apple was just using AirPlay over WiFi... so how does it work?
Through the magic of buying two HomePods mini (pictured above), I found out. A video detailing the process is embedded below:
