@Tom1I started using graphics mode in my OS, so i have to render fonts now
@cupcakes7+Unassembled a landline :evilplotting: I now have a taste for breaking apart old tech...
@sahitid0:kitty-dance: 🌸 *days of service ship incoming:*:kitty-dance: 🌸
Blossom 🌸 was held in Atlanta, Georgia from March 15-16th.
working closely with the Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta :girl-scouts:, i had the privilege of organizing a day-long event that brought together a team of high school female mentors and dozens of eager girl scouts. beginner girl scouts embarked on exciting journeys - from crafting their own PCB :pcb: keychains that they later had manufactured through #onboard to delving into an introduction of javascript :js: to code drawings on #blot the drawing robot. every girl went home with a unique new hardware or software project that they 100% created themselves, but most importantly, the confidence needed to pursue coding further :blobheart:.
we also had a brilliant dinner (with ricotta balls :blobby-doughnut:) the night before with 28+ women in technology and STEM who guided us with their stories and experiences in their fields. all the high school mentors and i were fueled for the day ahead of us by the end of the night:half-salute:.
it was so motivating to see girls who had never touched code before leaving the event with the confidence that they had a place in the world of technology & finished projects that they could show off.

🥂 women in STEM dinner photos: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-WR0RY4SCYAOzAD3T-Z6aT0_DYBsNGgj?usp=sharingthank you to @MariannaLudensky@NilaRam@christina695 & the whole <!subteam^S06A2EGQ29M|@blossom-team> for the wonderful event we pulled off, hopefully inspiring many girls along with each other through the process.
@DillonB070Made a lot more progress on Celeste: Sprig Edition (all behind the scenes stuff really :( )!
Very happy with the dash detection system although the timings are going to need a lot of tweaking to make it feel better as there’s a fair bit of latency atm. Only upwards dashing is implemented properly now but gonna keep working on that and maybe get some animation in too 👀@Leo0It can display 3 different hard coded letters! I'm going to need something else...
@msw0since my last video about making PCBs, I’ve had a bunch of feedback about people who had trouble submitting PRs.
now there’s new video about submitting a PR in (almost) under a minute! www.youtube.com/watch?v=qL4d6AFx-9E, and it was made in under a day in #onboard-bts— check out the channel for the whole WIP thread
@Domsson0Added ray casting and buttons to my FPP game built on my own engine!
@zrl0Working on a tutorial to make a little project like this!
@Sarvesh0trying modeling for the #apocalypse poster!
@zrl0Day 8 of #10-days-in-public! I’m working on hackclub/wizard-orpheus for the workshop I’m going to give at Wonderland this weekend.
The concept of the library is that it allows people new to HTML to build fun games relatively easily using AI. I’m really excited about the concept - it came out of a discussion with @cwalker and @msw at #the-summit on how AI can be used to automate work, but also to make building certain kinds of projects a whole lot easier.
@cupcakes7+learned how to use a terminal to run a website! so cool 😎
@sam0I love DIY upgrades!! Just improved my 3018 CNC engraver.
• Cut, glued, and faced a spoil board (but the bed is not square, oops).
• Made an enclosure using a cardboard box to help keep the dust down
• Modified and printed this drag chain design, no more worrying about wires getting caught!
@KarthickArun0just submitted my stipend reimbursement with my dad #the-summit
@karmanyaahm0Did the Vex Robotics head ref exam, although can't officially be a head ref because I'm under 20, I'm reffing at an intra-district practice competition tmrw
@jdogcoder0Sending out my first ever wave of club onboarding emails! 😄
@karmanyaahm0Finally got video encoding working on kdenlive!!! Idk how, but I'm so excited to be able to edit fast
+ :leeks:
@Kieran2Productive meeting in #purplebubble today! looking at becoming an mvno and building the chat app around it; EDIT - we also finalized board positions so @jdogcoder and @reesericci are the co-chairs, i am the treasurer, and @polypixeldev and @Aram are the at large members
@zrl0check out what I’ve been working on tonight! receipt printer for every time someone wins a sprig or onboard grant!@Kieran2Worked for 7 hours on the website this week for #purplebubble; really close to having a working email signup form
@Kieran2got logging for my teams can coders! rn we we aren't getting any errors but the encoders won't output any position but zero; hopefully this helps!
@jdogcoder0Soooooo much #purplebubble work today, including a working website, HCB account activated, and lots of github and other administrative work.
@Kieran2lost my scrapppy streak cause' i forgot to post last night but: yesterday i worked on #purple-bubble with @jdogcoder and @polypixeldev, i also filed a video a flew my drone, and had a productive robotics meeting.
@Marios0Well well well, what do we have here, TAURI!
I've started using tauri again (and rust!) and its honestly super great.
My end goal for now is to try to run sinerider inside of a tauri application and see if the performance is better
@rivques0This is the TOTKey, a tool that generates time-based one-time passwords (TOTPs) for 2-factor authentication. I don't always have my phone when I want to log into an account, so I built this. It's an RP2040-based #onboard PCB with a 128x32 OLED screen, a real-time clock, and a few buttons. The board runs CircuitPython, but it's all managed via WebSerial and a web interface at rivques.dev/random-raw-files/totkey.html.
