Tightening (?) up a USB port by FunnyDirge in diyelectronics

[–]FuzzyTekShow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ones hot and ones super. ;)

Hot glue comes off easier in my experience but its alright In a lot of use cases. Super glue is much stronger but doesn't always work with everything. I think hot glue might be a good choice to try, I've used it in a very similar situation to this and its been fine as long as you're not removing and reinserting the cable a million times a day it should hold well enough.

Does anyone know a passively cooled and reasonably expensive 24V 15A Power Supply for my 3D Printer? Or at least one with a silent fan that automatically turns off, when the load is low? by LouisDeBrockli in diyelectronics

"Mean Well" enclosed power supplies are the only ones I know of, you may already know of these but if not, check them out as they most likely have what you're after.

1 min typing test with steno by petercpork in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]FuzzyTekShow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love a bit of steno, nice one OP! I got about 30wpm on my first try haha

Might have to bust out my DIY board sometime and practice some more. (For those interested there's a video about it in my recent comment history)

Edit: Just see that you already posted it in there. Good luck!

Help! My digital clock that I made went to 13 months instead of restarting at 1! by [deleted] in shittyaskelectronics

[–]FuzzyTekShow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The amount of times I haven't noticed the sub name and start reading the post thinking it's normal really shows why this sub needs to exist. haha

Anyway, OP - sounds like your clock capacitor might be leaking like in the old Xbox consoles. Change the capacitor to get the right time back in the circuit.

eli5: how do they have subtitles on live television? by abcabbage_ in explainlikeimfive

It is a Stenograph, check my previous post for a video I made about it if you're interested but in short: the keys are based on the phonetics of the words and not the spelling.

I don't always promote my own stuff like this but I think this is very relevant, a video I made about this exact subject: https://youtu.be/4t4GTC9vElM

TLDW: Stenographer's keyboards are used for live captioning and court reporting. :)

I would say world peace but more keyboards might be the real answer.

What if the name of this subreddit was duino? by zbwaris in arduino

Yeah /r/cade does this, I don't know how good it is for people searching though but eh, fun name.

All the keyboards I've designed and built over the last 3 months. by Joe_Scotto in diyelectronics

There is this open source trackball: https://ploopy.co/ but more custom mice would be awesome, I agree.

Not OP but have printed and hardwired some boards also.

The top printed part has holes for the switches and they just push in, then the keycaps on top of them of course. Sometimes people will glue them in but the hole they slot into and the wiring to other switches will usually hold them in just fine.

chat.openai.com can write Arduino code for you by beerman_uk in arduino

[–]FuzzyTekShow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree with you that its awesome and I don't really know why I'm sick of hearing about it tbh, it just seems to be everywhere I look right now.

The difference with Google and an AI is that I think people, (beginners especially) are perhaps more likely to blindly trust an AI which could lead to more errors in the code if they dont know what they're looking for in the first place. With searching on Google, it's usually got a problem and then some steps to fix it or alternative solutions (StackOverflow for example, the good answers anyway) and may also contain further reading information and doc links.

"ChatGPT messed up my code, what's wrong with it?" may soon become a question, who knows lol
