My privacy journey and privacy questions

Online privacy: Best privacy related thing I’ve done is use a nickname. If I search my real name on Google, only two results show up (and my Instagram, but I deleted it) from the same site, my place in some school competition. That’s it! But if I search my made-up nickname… Github, Gitlab, Reddit, StackOverflow,...

Undervolt stable on Windows but crashes on Linux

I undervolted my CPU about a year ago and haven’t had any issues with it till now. I’ve been dual booting Linux recently and noticed whenever I was in Linux it would crash/reboot after a couple of hours or less of using it. I noticed the behavior was similar to when I set the voltages too low when initially setting up the...

Considering positioning strategies for autonomous mechanum-wheeled robots

Disclaimer: this is not specifically for a commercial product, but various things I design sometimes get commercialized. I mention this so that you may decide whether you want to weigh in. If it’s commercialized, I will probably make very little money but a bunch of university students may get a neat STEM program in the...

I'm so tired of the current state of the internet

Everywhere you browse, people have such strong opinions about everything and are so toxic or extremely negative. You start playing a game, want to check the forums or something and most of the posts are people being mean to each other. You open social media to keep in touch with people that you’d like to maintain a certain...

I just want to say that I'm so happy that people are taking notice of privacy concerns in cars

Mozilla released their studies, and I’m seeing a growing number of posts on the Internet about cars and the privacy nightmare they entail. I remember how this issue wasn’t talked about earlier because “just buy an older car” was still prevalent. I’m so happy that people are taking notice. Thank you to this community...

Power device with higher voltage battery and still get battery reading

I want to power this board with a 14v battery. The board has a 1s battery connector that can power the board and read the voltage via ADC. Is there something I could place between the two to lower the voltage and still have a battery voltage reading? I would not be charging the battery through this. The usb port would not be...

VitaHacks+ - place about cool stuff you can make the PlayStation Vita handheld console do

I mean, actually maybe not the newest community, it’s like 2 months old or so, around the time when the other website troubles happened and I didn’t really announce it anywhere because who wants to post something here will search and find it y’know, but it doesn’t really show up on other Lemmy instances and I thought...

Itemizer Orbs are easily the most horrifying items in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon.

Imagine being an enemy Pokemon that gets hit by an itemizer orb. One instant, you were a living organism, the next, you’re an object. This raises all kinds of existential questions that get scarier the more you think about it. At what point are you killed by the process? The best case scenario for you is that you die the...

What's the thinnest E-ink screen that is closest to 3.5×2.5 inch?

I am curious if one, something like this exists, and two what the cost might be? I am looking for a screen, I assume an e-ink is the best/cheapest option and I want it to be as close as possible to the size of a playing card, ideally not thicker than 2MM. But I think up to 5mm could work....
