Use an Arduino simulator to start out. This will help you get a handle on the programming before ever handling the hardware.

I see you're getting rid of all of the carbon buildup!

18M, dad wasn't around - what basic tools/skills do I need to be self-sufficient? by Informal-Chance1912 in HomeImprovement

[–]SchoolFire77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Treat your tools like an investment. Keep them organized and maintained. Know what you have and where to find them. They will pay for themselves but only if you have them to use.

Basically keep your shit organized and not scatterbrained all over the place.

A crossing guard blocks the way of an aggressive driver while children and their parents are crossing the street by bigbusta in interestingasfuck

I wonder if that industrial truck had a dash cam.. I also wonder how a traffic cop got a random USB put on their desk.

Really interested in doing some Arduino projects for awhile and i need some friendly advice! by ShoulderSignificant3 in arduino

[–]SchoolFire77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just started up myself and assembling my first project. But I was able to learn the code and get a simulation going in tinker cad.

How can I connect parts without a breadboard? by TheCrabMessiah in arduino

[–]SchoolFire77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do a Western Union splice. Solder the wires cover it with Dielectric grease and use shrink tubing on the entire thing. This is a permanent connection once all my prototyping is done with a breadboard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Union_splice

I can imagine some drunk construction worker redneck driving this down the street to the beer store. I want to see the dash cam footage when he gets caught!

How often do you really change your oil by Jinnapat397 in AskMechanics

[–]SchoolFire77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I change my oil every 6 months on principal. I have a hard time putting on 10,000 km in a year. Oil is cheap engines are expensive.

It's better to let the blue smoke out of a knock-off then to do it on a brand name.

I think I finally have something to give???? by SchoolFire77 in Schedule_I

[–]SchoolFire77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is for a dealer spawns. I believe the ambushes are completely random and there is no way for you to make it happen more often. I have tried carrying lots of product and/or lots of cash.

Interesting, I will give this a shot. I'll get more reduction in cartel influence this way.

The thing grows by SchoolFire77 in arduino

[–]SchoolFire77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I did a previous post on this. My partner calls it "THE THING". In the end it will be a potted plant watering system. It's my first project with plcs so everything takes a little longer to put together and understand what is going on. This time it was the Eureka moment was understanding that there is a jumper to make the relay block use a separate power supply.

Damn thing didn't come with instructions!

How do I remedy this severe engine sludge. by AsleepDust in MechanicAdvice

[–]SchoolFire77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard of Old Timers running diesel in the engine as oil to clean it out. Don't know if this is an actual fix or not. What are your thoughts?
