i haven't posted about this here so here it goes. Last month i bought a used keyboard, thinking i could use one when sitting at my desk paired to my laptop. It was a keychron k3 v2 and cost me around 30 eur, it has a low-profile which is nice for travel, backlight and bluetooth. ....

hot take, but letting trans kids have hormones is far more ethically defensible than forcing them to wait on puberty blockers, and I hate that most people have abandoned defending that. (my qualifications on this topic: only alive because I figured out how to secretly order e online at 15)

"Animated Bokeh" has been on my whiteboard for a long time, and this is the result. I thought it would just be for cheesy novelty effects, but it also does lightfield manipulation that was cooler than I expected. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kg_2...

A week turned into two months, but we're finally back with some stock.. will be adding more as orders come in. By the way we're at v3! which just has some minor routing changes and nitpicks. www.tindie.com/products/tre...
Ambra 40c3@ambraglow.org · 12mo agoIf anyone's interested add to wishlist rn! or waitlist! i'm gonna be restocking in a week
The boards arrived here last week, i've been doing the rounds testing them and i'll probably write a blog post about it since it's too much for a bluesky post but the verdict is, yes they work but i fucked up the BOM for one component (not necessary for it to work but for some functions it is) 🙃
Ambra 40c3@ambraglow.org · 11mo agouh so update:
One thing I wish MCU silicon vendors would do (e.g. STM32, Nordic) is be more upfront on the "bill of material" of IP blocks they use in their chips. Many different chips re-use the same IP blocks for UARTs, SPI, DMA, etc. Knowing when this is/isn't the case makes writing drivers WAY easier.
If anyone's interested add to wishlist rn! or waitlist! i'm gonna be restocking in a week
Ambra 40c3@ambraglow.org · 12mo agowww.tindie.com/products/tre... Restock's happening soon, with version v3 of the board! Routing has improved, and ofc it's framework module sized as well. Now shipping from a different location :D couldn't figure out shipping to the US unfortunately, the rates seem to be impossible.

severe anxiety is such a frustrating disorder it kind of sucks that it's still perceived as the "can't talk to the gas station cashier" illness. PTSD and severe anxiety is such a horrible combination.
new board in the works! nrf52840 battery powered thermostat with eink display and rotary encoder for control. The final idea is to have multiple of these in different rooms to regulate temperature in each, using Matter for wireless control through HA.
