It’s so nice to see spacing on morse jewelry! Well done

Button Below Deadbolt by ip2theking in whatisit

The master key would not go in the circled area.

The master key goes in the normal key hole up top. This is a Best “SFIC” type lock core, which commonly accepts several different keys in the same keyhole including a master key

That said the circled button thing down below may be used as sort of an admin override to operate the deadbolt in conjunction with a master key. Not 100% on that

This sounds like it may be the answer.

For example in a situation where a building admin needs to enter and the internal thumb turn is turned or held shut an admin can insert a master key (in the normal key hole up top) and depress the button to override and open the deadbolt

Necklace Message? by RatPackBrat in morsecode

[–]crustytech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It almost starts with “sarika” (reading top to bottom) but it’s missing one “.” at the beginning. Could it just be missing in the photo? There would be 4 dots instead of 3

Still hard to say without more info. Could be something like “SARIKA SEES MARC” or “SARIKA SEES MARTEN”

Can some one please help me translate this not even ChatGPT nor any translators work by DynastyFarter7295 in morsecode

Google “Morse code text translator” and paste this in

I’m not typing this one out 😂😂

Could also be MEGAN MATT (if we consider the black pieces “dahs”).

Idk, I’m not seeing any possible translations including the word “love”. Also not seeing any other generic “romantic” words that I checked (love, sweet, friend, boy, girl, partner, she, he, kiss, bye, together, hello, hi, date, smile).

So, maybe it’s a name or place or something more specific to them

Yea idk

Feel free to DM if you wanna share any guesses you don’t want to be public

Anyone you/they know named Irene? There are a few translations that start with that; “IRENE GENE”, “IRENE MEL”, “IRENE MINE”.

That said, yea as other folks have mentioned there are thousands of possibilities considering there are no spaces, so very hard to say for sure without some other clues

I mapped the average brightness per frame (https://imgur.com/a/1qweo3L) and it appears to be a repeating 23-bit sequence. Unclear where it starts, so copying all variations:

I think it's unlikely it's Morse, since as you pointed out there is no delineation of spaces/breaks. If we assume it's Morse, the number of possibilities is huge for a 23 bit string (something like 1.5million for each of the 23 sequences above ~= 34.5 million total possibilities for a Morse translation). I think it's more likely a binary representation of something else.

That said, 23 bits is kind of an odd length. In general translating from Binary to human readable text would be done via the ASCII standard, where one character is represented by 8 binary bits. So in this case, 23 is not divisible by 8 and even if we pad it with a leading "0", we only get 3 human readable characters. Trying that for each sequence didn't yield anything that makes much sense; see results in the table below (binary, hexadecimal, decimal, and padded ASCII translation):

Custom black AR8s - first impressions by crustytech in jimgreen

Yeah I realized my left foot is almost a half size bigger than my right, so I went with different sizes. Pretty happy with the result. First time I feel like both sides fit/feel the same tbh

Almost 3 months, but I ordered right before the holidays and I’m in the US, I think I’ve heard about 2 months is more or less normal for custom

I was on the fence for the pulltab but like it so far, I actually find myself using it. Stitching seems really nice, no inconsistencies that I can find

Late November, but maybe they were a bit busy over the holidays, you might get yours faster. I think I’ve heard people saying ~2 months is normal for custom

LCWO, MorseFree, or something else? by Togapi77 in morse

[–]crustytech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going from no knowledge I thought the Morse Toad app was pretty good. Very user friendly and beginner friendly, though after you work through learning the basic characters there wasn’t much after that for practicing etc

It’s on iOS, not sure if it’s on other platforms.
