Great price - picked up a copy.

looks like you to this Prof G!

Learn Servo Easing with MicroPython YouTube video by Kevin McAleer

Also Kevin McAleer did a good episode as well: www.youtube.com/live/kXs2nYP...

YouTube video by James Bruton How To Make Robots Move Smoothly | Arduino Tutorial

No - I have never tried those. Looks like you updated to higher quality servos in a later post. Are you using servo easing in your code? I have yet to entirely master that. James Burton did a nice episode on it: youtu.be/jsXolwJskKM?.... Good luck with the project!

Maybe a higher quality joystick?

YouTube video by Lori Pfahler Pico W Episode 35: LED Displays 8x8 LED Matrix Part 8

Up to Part 8 of my "Exploring LED Displays" series. Been a fun journey so far. youtu.be/O8j3s0jJgiw?...

Hope it goes well and you recover quickly!

Awesome - please share how you set it up for learning!

Congratulations!

That looks like a lost cause.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

(mis?) Adventures in Soldering - YouTube A series of videos where I work on improving my soldering skills.

I started with a cheap iron. I did OK with that and then moved to a Hakko soldering station FX888D. I love it. My number one recommendation is to solder lots of electronic kits for practice. I made a series of soldering videos that documented my learning journey: youtube.com/playlist?lis...

YouTube video by Lori Pfahler Pico W Episode 29: LED Displays Seven Segment Part 2

Second video in my "Exploring LED Displays" is live. These fun little displays are providing lots of unique Micropython programming challenges. I am up to 14 episodes planned for the series. youtu.be/ojrOzrVuIr8?...

What a beautiful cat. So sorry for your loss.

YouTube video by Lori Pfahler Pico W Episode 28: LED Displays Seven Segment Part 1

Just started a new series of videos on LED displays and the Raspberry Pi Pico. The displays include 7-segment, bar graph, 8x8 matrix and 4-digit 7-segment. Total of 12+ episodes - one per week. First episode releases tomorrow morning: youtu.be/gvRASKGGnUM?...

I did the glass making class (years ago) at Corning where you made flowers using a "pulling" technique. It came out lovely and I still proudly display it in my house. Hope you have a great experience.

I agree. Keeping experienced soldiers makes sense to me. But if Pete says that women must meet the men's standard then everyone should meet the same standard. Acknowledging that experience (that comes with age) is good to have in a unit sounds like that horrible "diversity" to me. Sarcasm intended

The article doesn't say but they should also eliminate the age differences too. If it really is important to exactly match these requirements, there should be no lowering of the requirements as you age. Meet the standard or move out.

Fantastic sign!

Thanks for sharing this awesome robot. I have added to my list to build.

Testing out some nixie tube images on my Newxie TFT display from Adafruit. Planning some kind of Nixie tube clock project with four of these displays and a RPi.

Congratulations!

Glad you are here on BlueSky. I am in the process of moving off of Goodreads for reasons ... love the kitties!

This board might be some great fun.

Glad you made it! I am enjoying following these amazing courses!

Sure - I will give it a try!

XRP (Experiential Robotics Platform) DIY kit from Sparkfun is complete. I really enjoyed being able to 3D print my own chassis, wheels, and such. Time to start programming and modding this robot!

Just got my items from @kevsmac.bsky.social today! Time to make my own Picotamachibi! Love the Robot Makers Almanac.

Need to spend some time with this extension. Good to hear it is working well.

Nice! I have a DIY XRP on order. I may give this version a try. Thanks for sharing!
