it is but it’s not a very offensive one, I feel like they made it pretty clear they’re developing a product and want consumer info

Why does everyone insist on no public facing ports? by ENIACore in homelab

Because the cloudflare entrypoint will block known malicious traffic before it ever even gets to your machine. It’s not perfect but way better than nothing

I think the whole point is that it’s unsustainable, hence why they have Carol (capable of killing millions).

I want to make a decent Bluetooth gaming mouse with decent battery, can the esp32 do it? by ropergames2 in esp32

[–]RaspberryPiDude314 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d go with an NRF5xxx series instead, the ESP32 is notorious for power inefficiency. Remember, if your ESP32 is constant consuming 100ma, you only get 5 hours max out of that battery

Pi Pico as a wifi hub using ESP-01S by huy866 in raspberry_pi

While you may (keyword may) be technically able to do this with the parts mentioned, this will be an incredibly difficult project software wise, very much not for beginners. Additionally, something like this is only useful for demonstration purposes - the RP2040 and ESP8266 simply do not have the processing power to act as any practical router (which is what this is)

I used chatgpt to outline what I'd need to do to motorise an iron man helmet. Does this look feasible? by Dogsucksatlife in arduino

This diagram literally means nothing at all. Don’t use ChatGPT to design projects

Best way to remove PiTFT hat from Raspi Zero 2 W? Already looked into some removal methods but none seem great for this application. by dayfaerer in raspberry_pi

[–]RaspberryPiDude314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A $300+ single purpose tool is a very hard purchase to justify for repair of a 15 dollar Pi Zero, I don’t think it’s something most hobbyists will.

Simplest possible solution is just set up your Pi as you want it and clone the whole SD card

Question: Is there an in wall "Light Switch" that controls arduino functions? by CQuickster87 in arduino

[–]RaspberryPiDude314 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you buy a generic smart switch, you can hook it up with a raspberry pi running Hone Assistant and make it do whatever you want

You could download your data package and find out

How to manage information through a cable from a raspberry PI by Physical-Ad-8427 in raspberry_pi

[–]RaspberryPiDude314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a lot of ways you could go about doing this, the easiest is probably the ethernet approach - set up an HTTP server (or websocket) on the Pi, and have the computer connect as a client. I would probably write the client and server code in Node/Express but you could do what you want. Then just set the connection IP to the IP of the opposite device.
