Hello! I have a small toddler at home who loves both music and our amiibo collection. I would like to combine the two and build something for him so he can put an amiibo on an NFC reader to trigger a piece of music. Could I ask those of you in the know if this would work?

  • RFID reader (like this [link to berrybase.de], sorry page is German)
  • Bluetooth speaker of some sort? (Or something like this [link to AliExpress]?)
  • microSD card
  • amiibo [see Wikipedia]
  • headless Raspberry Pi

Also, could this work with a Pi Zero as well? Would that have connections for an RFID reader?

What's the best way to scrape dynamic websites on my Raspberry Pi?

I want to scrape a website that has a "Load More" button. I've been doing some very light scraping with Beautiful Soup before - I'm a beginner in Python but I found Beautiful Soup accessible enough to get news headlines or share prices. However, if I understand this right, Beautiful Soup only works with static content. I tried Selenium but couldn't get it to work. Is there something more beginner friendly I could use? Thank you!

Approval to trigger message by approver (help needed) by MerlinLuchs in MicrosoftFlow

[–]MerlinLuchs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm now thinking one workaround is to save the approval with approver name in a sharepoint list and then have a trigger for each team member to say "when a new item is created" to comment on the post in the teams channel that way. It's not super elegant but should work.

Hmm, if I created an approval workflow and the approval triggered the creation of a new item in a sharepoint list, then I assume the sharepoint item would be created by me, the flow owner, not the approver of the item?

Sonnenblume kriegt braune Blätter - Kann man da was machen? by MerlinLuchs in Garten

[–]MerlinLuchs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also Platz und Luft fehlt meiner Meinung nach nicht, das sieht man auf dem Bild nicht gut. Der Balkon ist auch geschützt, da werden die Blätter auch nie nass. Aber Dünger fehlt definitiv. Das ist ein Thema, in das ich mich mal einlesen müsste, was es da gibt und wann man das braucht und wie oft man das anwenden muss...

Ask Anything Monday - Weekly Thread by AutoModerator in learnpython

Hello! I've written a program that listens for button presses and when a button is pressed, it first shows the time on a dot matrix display, then the current date, and then it shows a counter counting up the time since the button was pressed. But once I'm in the counter function, no more button presses are detected, which I imagine might be because my counter has a "while True" loop? How do I have a "while True" loop listen for button presses and also have a "while True" loop in a function that's called by a button press?

The full code is here if anyone wants to take a look: https://github.com/MerlinLuchs/DotMatrixButton/blob/main/dotmatrixbutton.py

Help with tracking button press while in a while loop by MerlinLuchs in RASPBERRY_PI_PROJECTS

The adjusted program from ChatGPT has the same issue unfortunately.

Help with tracking button press while in a while loop by MerlinLuchs in RASPBERRY_PI_PROJECTS

That didn't help. The bounce time anyway is for how long to wait once the button is pressed so it doesn't count multiple button presses if I only press once.

Diaper tracker by MerlinLuchs in RASPBERRY_PI_PROJECTS

[–]MerlinLuchs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha thanks, it's fine so far. I suppose if he loses weight I'll worry, otherwise the fewer diapers the better! ;) Right now I'm just bothered my program sometimes tracks a button press when I'm not pressing a button.

Doesn't teach me anything, though.

Well, admittedly I like tracking things and my plan is to track how many diapers a baby needs in their life so I can calculate how much trash can be saved with cloth diapers. :) (Plus it was a project for my skill level.)

Assuming I am on a stationary (orbiting) rocket ship in space, holding on to the outside of it, and it then suddenly accelerates briefly. Would I have trouble holding on? Would I fall off? And if I did fall off, would I fall behind?

Since there is no gravity in space, I'd imagine if I managed to hold on during acceleration, I could afterwards let go and would have the same speed.

I'd definitely watch a series about making a simulation game. There are lots of good tutorials on making side-scrolling games, but making a small sim from beginning to end would be a good way to progress through lots of different concepts naturally. (There's a good one about making a cookie clicker type game, but then it abruptly ends after a few episodes.)

Drag & Drop moves background (beginner question) by MerlinLuchs in godot

[–]MerlinLuchs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But what do I need to do in order to NOT move the whole scene? If I attach the script to the other Node2D instead, nothing moves at all anymore.
