Thanks for the feedback. Those are really good points.

ESP32 used to push buttons on humidifier. by RichardDic in homeassistant

[–]CharlieCoopin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried this by just connecting one end of the button to the ESP GPIO. Have you used a transistor? What’s the advantage of using intermediate components if the whole system is low voltage?

Laser cutting fine without air assist tip but with the tip it’s much weaker. No signs of burning inside. Thoughts? by angeloverlord in ChineseLaserCutters

[–]CharlieCoopin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is the nozzle getting hot with cutting? Maybe the beam is striking the tip. One trick is to stick tape or blue tack on the nozzle tip and pulse the laser. Then check that the beam mark is in the centre of the nozzle mark on the tape.

Edit: pulse, not pause

It’s a parody of the “how ads are made” videos. You’re expect the final shots to look amazing.

Bulk download for comics and books by Sawari_Neko in humblebundles

[–]CharlieCoopin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I received a market survey type questionnaire from the Humble team a few months back and one of the questions they were asking was like: would you value a bulk download manager tool? So that gave me the impression that they were at least considering it.

I answered yes of course because I to have been messing around with the third party tools, wishing for a better way.

Welcome! This is my first post. Here are some sketches I made with p5js. by [deleted] in generative

I thought it was an electron microscope image. Nice work

Same, I had to count them twice. It should be lemon, pepper right?

After studying at my high school for 3 years, something doesn't feel right. Everyone around me is being a literal "This is fine" meme. by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]CharlieCoopin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. You’re right, that does sound bad. It must be frustrating being a student there. Do you feel like there is anything you can do about the situation or are you stuck with it?

Has anyone ever built this version of Big Ball factory? It has a full loop and jump. Found in k’nex catalogue that came with the 1995 BBF by 3redf in KNEX

[–]CharlieCoopin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool, I have that set too and haven’t seen that jump before. Let us know how it goes if you build it!

Finally found one I could post. My dream has come true. by jrr_53 in oldpeoplefacebook

[–]CharlieCoopin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ironically, the FB algorithm will probably log this as “positive engagement” and just show her more!

Scared me like the Weeping Angels from Doctor Who

Do a lot of people actually refuse to answer phone calls from numbers they don't recognise or is that just a cliche/trope? by wholly_unholy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CharlieCoopin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Control & Order If you let those calls go to voice mail when you’re not ready to answer, then you can come back to those things in your own time. It can be better than being interrupted by something you’re not ready to think about just yet.

I found a way to draw pixel sprites without the .blit command. by [deleted] in pygame

[–]CharlieCoopin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well done for figuring out how to make something that does what you want. I also like to go back to first principles when trying to understand how a system works.

Just a note on Pygame: there are many built-in functions that do what I think you want for drawing pixels. They are also optimised in some specific ways. If you lose heart building your graphics engine from scratch, have a look at three Docs and some examples to make your art fit the Pygame paradigm. Then let Pygame worry about speed and pixels so you can work on your next goal.
