so the bicycle parking where my second bike is has a maximum stay of 2 weeks (which they actually enforce, I had to pay to get my bike back once already). I don't visit there too often anymore though, so today I took the train there, moved my bike to a different spot, and got the train back, with 3 minutes in between trains :D

and here's the schematic, the TP4056 is a great simple chip. I used 2.2K ohm for Rprog, but with 1.2K it will charge the fastest (1A)

so tonight I did my first real SMD soldering, on a pretty challenging chip :D

I desoldered the TP4056 ic from a dead SHA2017 badge, then made everything work on the smd-protoboard of the eth0 badge.
Great fun learning to do tiny soldering, and getting used to working under a microscope

It charges a single-cell lipo, and gives the charging status over a wire, something the prebuilt modules can't (they connect it to an onboard led instead).

Next up will be adding a voltage divider to get a battery voltage reading, and throwing this all into kicad (also a first for me)

@nimblejack @alexis @DissidentKitty have you ever read Édouard Siddon's classic argument in "Against America"? It really thoroughly debunks these myths you're spouting

@TheConstructor @raichoo@chaos.social @milan Dendrite is slowly being worked on, and ruma.io/ seems to be making progress again as well, but more implementations are good. Keep in mind however, that Matrix is quuite a complex protocol, due to its federation model and DAG-structure

@TheConstructor @raichoo@chaos.social @milan synapse is your only option at this point, just works(tm) for me

@emsenn I was very skeptical when I first heard about the Sidon sequence, but that's a real thing... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidon_se

Had some time to work on again, my static site generator.
JSX templates, different flavours of frontmatter and a basic sitewide config file

Definitely needs a bunch of refactoring now that I'm more clear on the project's heading, but features are working :D
