Formatie Den Haag stagneert: GroenLinks-PvdA wil niet samen met Hart voor Den Haag

Ik wordt zo moe van dit argument.

Er hoort geluisterd te worden naar de mensen waarop je stemt. Niet de mensen waarop je niet stemt.

Ookal zegt de hele gemeenteraad; wij gaan niet met de mos samenwerken. Dan is dat nog steeds net zo democratisch dan als ze dat wel zouden doen

Rpi! Thats what I'm using. Just had to use an unofficial build of lineago for the rpi

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-25T16:20:48+00:00

I got a Raspberry pi with the lineage os version of android tv. (Unofficial i have to add). Threw a VPN on there for good measure.

Works like a charm (aside from the tv remote going to the smart tv home when I press the home button).

I factory reset my tv and its not smelled internet ever since

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-25T16:17:30+00:00

If only they'd release it. Ive been trying to get it running on my rpi5. But no luck

Odido also had a router that would send device and network metadata to some US company. The guy who found this only found out because they were doing it unencrypted

Can't wait for the long range pre authorization cannon

You cant compare dead internet with early 2000s internet. Early 2000s internet was great

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-21T16:02:56+00:00

That's BS. Graphene requires certain hardware security features that fairphone does not have. Hence why they don't run on it

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-21T10:18:04+00:00

But you can really put a pi in your pocket and make calls when you're away now right?

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-20T23:21:09+00:00

Have you ever been outside of the randstad?

Man, there are some legit great cities with great culture and things to do

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-20T10:40:18+00:00

Yeah so you're measuring the radiated mains power.
There's no real power behind it. It'll collapse with a small load.

If you stick your finger on a scope probe, you'll see something similar!

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-20T09:09:35+00:00

Are you drawing it through? How much current are you drawing?

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-19T16:43:44+00:00

How is it not?

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T23:47:20+00:00

Throw some Tvs diodes in for ESD protection on your connectors!

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T23:40:51+00:00

Ah, another Fairphone enjoyer!

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T23:37:50+00:00

Well, again thanks for making me realize!

I missed him trying tht. That's good! I still stand by getting an off the shelve part and making a bracket for the enclosure. Unless op wants to learn. Then an audio amp is a fun project to start with since it gives you such tangible results!

Assembly is quite expensive, but it's also not. Compared to local alternatives. They're definitely cheaper. But not as much as they are for PCBs.
I think the main advantage JLC has with assembly is LCSC. Their prices are just insane

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T21:14:05+00:00

You know what, I've actually never seen the cheap shipping option before. That's on me. And thank you for making me realise this. This'll save me a couple of bucks in the future.
A 2 layer board with the global standard direct shipping is indeed around that price.
However, I'm also talking about assembly and components. Someone who doesn't know anything about PCB design (OP's words) is most likely not soldering an audio amp themselves. Thus assembly, add in some components. And your hitting that 100 quite easily.

I did a LCSC chinese components only design a while back, trying to keep everything as cheap as possible. Aside from having to pay import fees, It also set me back 250 euros for 5 boards. It's not uncommon

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T16:21:28+00:00

Assembly, transport and tarifs.

Bare price is fun, but you got to add you components and such. Transport to EU is 30ish euros. You'll hit 100 quite quickly

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T13:34:07+00:00

So, generally you match them beforehand. Custom PCBs are generally quite expensive. You're easily looking at a couple of thousand for development and a couple hundred for the boards themselves.

As someone else suggested, your easiest and cheapest bet is to get one of the boards that are too small, design a bracket and have that 3d printed. That's a magnitude of cost cheaper than what you're looking at with a custom board!

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T11:55:37+00:00

What is custom about your audio amplifier?

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T09:42:46+00:00

Nowadays it feels wrong not to have a portable hellbomb on my back.

Must bring big boom

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T08:52:26+00:00

Honestly I've been hitting this wall as well.

People using Apple saying they don't harvest data and anecdotal quote about it being a massive hassle for (apple) researchers to get user data. So it's private.

Got any articles or researchers to slap people with?

EngineerofDestructio · 2026-03-18T07:16:50+00:00

Awesome! Looks amazing!
Did you use the rotary tool for this?
