It’s a nice and fun concept. With lot’s of very interesting technical challenges. The lack of finding more info about it can be a little frustrating to some and prevents them from appreciating it to the fullest.

What does god have to do with this? And which one are you referring to exactly, your god, the god of others? Since there are many religions and many kinds of gods. The whole god concept is very confusing and full of holes.

Comment on Fix That Old Remote With Graphite by sutechshiroi https://hackaday.com/2024/11/01/fix-that-old-remote-with-graphite/#comment-8058105 Tue, 05 Nov 2024 08:00:08 +0000 https://hackaday.com/?p=732011#comment-8058105 I tried this with a conductive paint. You can buy a small flask for cheap on Amazon. It works well enough, be aware that after some time it may rub off and create a short circuit effectively sticking button down. I recommend to wipe it of few times to remove any loose graphite after it dries off and before you assamble it together.

Comment on Power-Over-Skin Makes Powering Wearables Easier by pelrun https://hackaday.com/2024/11/04/power-over-skin-makes-powering-wearables-easier/#comment-8058103 Tue, 05 Nov 2024 07:59:18 +0000 https://hackaday.com/?p=732777#comment-8058103 In reply to Mark Topham.

No, that’s not how non-ionizing radiation works. You’re constantly bathed in far more RF energy than this, and it doesn’t matter how much of it you get, anything below UV is physically only capable of heating you up. If you can’t feel it, it’s not enough to matter.

Comment on Reusing an Old Android Phone For GPIO With External USB Devices by Dude https://hackaday.com/2024/11/04/reusing-an-old-android-phone-for-gpio-with-external-usb-devices/#comment-8058101 Tue, 05 Nov 2024 07:30:05 +0000 https://hackaday.com/?p=732739#comment-8058101 In reply to Zoot.

It’s not that hard to cut a few strips of wood and glue them together to make a simple picture frame.

Even if you don’t have the materials or woodworking tools, go to the local market and buy a bamboo clipboard, then rip it into suitable strips with a knife. This is literally kids’ arts and crafts level stuff – and people are instantly jumping to use a 3D printer to make objects that look like cheap plastic crud.
