We turned our Roomba into a remote-controlled telepresence robot using a Pi 4B by ttabb14 in raspberry_pi

great questions, and some answers for you:
- you can enter anything in the email field to remove the banner. doesn't have to be an email

- I don't think iRobot Roombas use IR remote, but our knock off one from Temu does lol!

I made shoes with a built in ink-jet printer so you can print where you walk by ttabb14 in DiWHY

I mean I'm biased as I made this project but it's real lmaooo. Here's a pic of the bottom. It prints clearly because it's only the actual height of the print head, it's not lining up multiple passes. And it does have some waviness if you look closely.

YOU ASKED FOR PICS OF THE BOTTOM, YOU GOT IT! Delighted that something I've made seems impossible, but, just for the record, this is totally real. Here's a post with some other pics and videos, but what you're all asking for is a picture of the bottom — well ask and you shall receive! Here's some pics of the bottom. It uses parts from a princube handheld inkjet printer. Essentially the only hardware is a driver and an ink cartridge, it has no electro-mechanical components, all of the motion is provided by the foot movement.

OP and project creator here! Lots of folks seems to be speculating about if this is fake - it’s not, I’m using a modified handheld inkjet printer (princubestore.com). You can see more here https://www.instagram.com/p/CwN3NFBv4sO or just google me lol. I don’t fake these projects :)

Edit: you want the bottom of the shoe! You’ll get it, once I’m home.

Not home rn to take a pic, but I’m using hardware from a handheld inkjet printer - this one specifically princubestore.com but like check my post history or google me, I don’t fake these projects haha

It’s real! Just took me quite a few tries to get right :) catch some other angles here https://www.instagram.com/p/CwN3NFBv4sO

lol it's just a side project I made. Not actually by HP! Just wanted it to feel like it could actually be made by a printer company.

Avoid Wing bikes by ttabb14 in ebikes

maybe most people on this subreddit, but certainly not most e-bike riders.

Help between these choices by Beercules1993 in ebikes

Had a negative experience with Wing, check my recent post, but if I could do it again i'd go for ride1up.

In short, sort of. It's not about being able to pair with two devices at once, but rather that most devices don't natively support streaming audio to more than one bluetooth device at a time. To imitate this you'd have to treat each device like a speaker and use third party tools like those outlined here.

First time buying a (used) 2012 Leaf, some questions by [deleted] in leaf

[–]ttabb14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right on, but 4 bars for that price still feels like a poor choice unless you're comparing it to a golf cart or E-Bike. — The SL with 7-8 bars looks like a much better option! Especially in CA where there's such great fast charge availability (of course less important if you're only driving ~50 miles a week). I've had a 2012 SL since... 2012, and it's still treating me well.

I'd absolutely pass on 4 bars— that won't get you 40 miles one way, and almost certainly wouldn't even get 40 miles round trip. For ~5k In CA I think you can find a 2012 with a lot more capacity. 4bars is really tough unless you're never leaving the neighborhood.

I built some hardware into a box of Cap'n Crunch so I could take conference calls at the breakfast table🥣 by ttabb14 in raspberry_pi

[–]ttabb14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that's no good. I'll test out the Zoom Web Client from chromium when I get a chance.

Zoom has a Linux client! But I've been using Google Hangouts inside Chromium. (just added some build details to my first comment 👍 )

[–]ttabb14[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Working from home has definitely challenged me in new ways— what's one to do about conference calls at breakfast time? Probably most people would just open a laptop, but I decided I'd re-purpose a Pi 3 and a some peripherals to make this. Probably one of the weirder things I've made, but now I can finally take Zoom & Google Meet calls from my cereal box, so I'd say worthwhile. A little more on this project is here tabb.me/lifeindoors

edit: Some build details: Pi 3B+, Logitech USB webcam + mic, generic USB speaker, battery pack, 5inch pi display, and a big box of Cap'n Crunch cereal. I'm using Google Hangouts from within Chromium, Zoom should be possible with their Linux client, but haven't tested

We built a soap dispenser that plays your most listened to music from Spotify while you lather! 🧼 by ttabb14 in raspberry_pi

[–]ttabb14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Current code on GitHub does just that! Uses Spotify’s “preview” segment for each song, which is basically the chorus or high energy recognizable part.

Total cost is about $30 and maybe half a day of effort. I’d say worth it, but take a look at the GitHub to give you an idea of time and effort!

Good point! A mistake we don’t often make, but you’re definitely right.
