    Goldeneye: Source

    007 for N64 as a Source game. It's awesome. Get you some and come play on my server. Torrent HTTP You need Steam and the Source SDK 2007, which will install automatically. The server browser doesn't seem to work correctly, so add dycus.dyndns.org in your favorites list and it should work. Of...

    Desktop Plotter

    After I saw Brunoip's printer, I really wanted to make something like that for myself. So I decided to make a plotter, heavily basing the design off Bruno's project. bY1gfSv4YFw It has a 1.5x1.5 inch printing area, or 120x120 pixels. Here's a quick WIP overview: The casings of all the CD...

    Getting Past the TSA with Homemade Electronics

    http://grathio.com/2012/04/flying-with- ... ectronics/ While our portables don't have exposed internals like this guy describes, there are still a lot of useful tips if you ever need to fly with one. It's worth a read.

    Ponies + PS3 =

    WN1BUEU2Q9w teehee 133 LED's which actually only draw about 200mA. I thought it'd be 2A, looks like I had a slight miscalculation. There's a little switch to turn them on and off. I realized this was necessary after trying to watch Netflix in a dark room. :P Any questions?

    Journey (Game)

    KH5pnb_uotY http://ps3.ign.com/articles/110/1100163p1.html By the same company that made flOw and flower, both excellent and beautiful games. Watch the video, it's great. PS3 only; sucks for the rest of you. I'm so glad I have one now. In this game, you control a character and maneuver...

    PS3 Fat Keeps Blowing Fuses

    Anybody had this problem? There are two fuses in the PS3 fat's power supply. One near the mains input, and one under a heatsink which is the one that keeps blowing. It takes a 4A fuse and I tried a 6.5A one and it still blew. Should I just buy a new power supply, or is there something on the...

    Happy Turkey Day!

    MAME and Frontends

    Somebody recommend me a good frontend for MAME. MaLa is pretty good. HyperSpin looks awesome, but takes a lot of resources. I'm looking for one that's moderately light, looks good, and supports other games too, not just other emulators.

    Splitting audio outputs

    I have only one audio output on m computer and I want it to go to two amps. The problem is, one is a bass amp and combines stereo inputs. When just using a splitter, it causes my stereo amp to no longer be in stereo. (volume isn't an issue because they have independent volume controls) Is there...

    One CPU core capped at 70% or two cores capped at 35%?

    What's better for battery life? Which produces less heat? My laptop has two cores at 1.2ghz each. I usually have only one core enabled with a 70% CPU usage cap. Is it more efficient to use two cores capped at 35%?

    FS/T: 7.5v Li-ion battery management board

    This was taken from an external portable DVD player battery pack. It used to have two 3500mAh li-ion batteries hooked up to it, but the batteries went bad. The board still works fine, though. With this, you just hook up two 3.7v li-ion batteries and it will take care of short-circuits, under-...

    I'll make you a benchtop PSU.

    It's useful to have a source of different voltages for testing different things. I've made a benchtop power supply out of a computer PSU, and I have three of the same PSU's left over. I don't have any more banana jacks, but I can buy some more if anybody is interested in one of these. Here's...

    New source of tiny analog sticks (not nubs) coming

    Perhaps some of you have heard of Sony's NGP (next generation portable), the next iteration of the PSP. Among other (irrelevant to us) features, it has dual analog sticks. These are actual sticks, not nubs, and are very small. Not sure when the NGP is coming out, but you can be sure that once...

    364 Worklog

    ...I just can't seem to help myself. Name? Dunno. This one will have a memory card built in, the RAM swap, RCP wiring, and hopefully somewhere around 4 hours of battery life. The back is a sheet of metal, and that will act as the heatsink. Dimensions are about 3.75x5.5x1.25", with the cart on...

    How to cool an outboard motor without using water?

    Here I go again with the helicopter idea. I'm a little smarter now, though. 5 hp lawn mower engine, pff, yeah right. Outboard motors have the 40+ horsepower I need and can be found pretty cheaply on places like craigslist. One thing I know about these engines is that they use a water pump to...

    Electrically-Powered Mountain Board

    Unlike my personal helicopter idea, this one is actually gonna materialize (sometime soon, anyway. :wink: ). I am taking a mountain board (like an oversized skateboard, here's a picture: link) and adding an electric motor and batteries for propulsion. The motor I have already received and is...

    Two-Transistor version of Daftmike's low-battery Indicator

    I designed this circuit based on Daftmike's low-battery indicator circuit. If you're thinking of using his low-battery indicator and don't mind giving up the green LED in exchange for some parts savings, use this one. All the info is right there. This circuit uses only two transistors as...
