Just a little something I whipped up for Halloween | Download free 3D printable STL models
It's a clicker. It's fun. It's relaxing. It's even kind of mobile friendly.
Over 30,000 Commodore 64 games playable in your browser. We have over 50 gigs of Commodore tapes, disk images, originals, and manuals
Remember the golden days of My Yahoo and iGoogle? Boxento is bringing that back - but better, open source, and completely in your control.
It's a self-hosted login dashboard, very configurable, and tries to be easy for newbies to use.
str2speech is a simple command-line tool for converting text to speech using Transformer-based text-to-speech (TTS) models. It supports multiple models and voice presets, allowing users to generate high-quality speech audio from text.
Supports multiple TTS models, including suno/bark-small, suno/bark, and various facebook/mms-tts models. Allows selection of voice presets. Supports text input via command-line arguments or files. Outputs speech in .wav format. Works with both CPU and GPU.
Looks like the speech models have to be installed locally to work.
Subtrace is Wireshark for your Docker containers. It lets developers see all incoming and outgoing requests in their backend server so that they can resolve production issues faster. Works out-of-the-box, no code changes needed. Supports all languages (Python + Node + Go + everything else). See full payload, headers, status code, and latency.
Chief Cloud Economist Corey Quinn goes through the torrent of news about Amazon’s cloud ecosystem and strains out the noise. Then he takes what’s left and gently and lovingly makes fun of it. The world of cloud takes itself far too seriously. We aim to change that.

CSVFiddle is a free tool to explore and share insights from CSV files using SQL. You can import data, write SQL, then instantly share it with anyone. Everything runs 100% in-browser, so the data you import and the queries you write are never sent to a web server.
CSVFiddle querying is powered by DuckDB-Wasm, a WebAssembly implementation of the popular OLAP database, DuckDB. Any SQL you can run in DuckDB should be able to run in CSVFiddle. This means that you'll run into its quirks more often than you think.
The SQL editor features autocomplete for common SQL keywords/snippets and the table names/columns imported into a workspace. Click 'Share Workspace' in CSVFiddle to generate a link you can share with anyone. Queries and references to CSV data are encoded in the URL fragment, so the data are never sent to CSVFiddle servers.
Seven segment LED displays are brighter, more attractive and provide a far viewing distance as well as a wider viewing angle as compared to LCD displays. The major drawback of using seven segment LEDs is they are resource-hungry. Time-division multiplexing is the most common technique of interfacing 7-segment LEDs to microcontrollers. With this technique, an 8-digit seven segment LED display with the decimal point requires at list 16 I/O pins of the microcontroller, which is quite a lot. Consequently, their use with low pin-count microcontrollers (such as PIC12F series) is not practically feasible. SPI7SEGDISP8.56 is our latest version of the MAX7219 based serial seven segment LED display module that will allow you to add 8 digits of seven segment LED displays to your project using only 3 I/O pins, and provides full control of all the digit segments including decimal points. You can even cascade two or more of these modules together without sacrificing any extra I/O pin.
Uses only 5 pins and SPI.
This is a small daughter board that fits into the socket of the "Sally" custom CPU in the Atari 800XL, 65XE and 130XE microcomputers (the RF shield must be removed, otherwise the daugher board won't fit inside). It replaces that CPU with a CMOS, modern, low-power, fully static, currently in production W65C02S CPU and some auxiliary logic.
The package contains the auxiliary logic chips, the capacitors, the resistances, 40 pin strip and the 4 layer board. Suitable W65C02S CPU is not included, you must search for one these, as recommendation, from trusted distributors.
Why learn actual skills when you can just look impressive instead?
Introducing rust-stakeholder - a CLI tool that generates absolutely meaningless but impressive-looking terminal output to convince everyone you're a coding genius without writing a single line of useful code.
Remember, it's not about your actual contribution to the codebase, it's about how complicated your terminal looks when the VP of Engineering walks by. Nothing says "I'm vital to this company" like 15 progress bars, cryptic error messages you seem unfazed by, and technical jargon nobody understands.
For fans of Columbo, a social site where you can track the episodes you have and haven't seen, whether or not you figured out the case, how much you liked it, and reviews of episodes.
An open source convention badge. The idea behind this is to have a very low cost, low power electronic badge. These could be built just for fun, or if you're throwing a conference, feel free to use the PCB as the badge, maybe build some, maybe let the folks at the conference build them.
Electronic badges have gotten pretty hip, but they seem to suffer from two primary problems: They are very expensive, and they need a lot of batteries.
The goal of the Open Badge Project was to build a badge that costs $5 or less and can run for a day or more on one 2032 battery.
The badge as it stands right now will only cost $5 if you build A LOT (1000 or more). The cost is closer to $6 or $7 for smaller batches at the moment, but that's still pretty reasonable.
The badge itself runs on a microprocessor called an ATTINY85. It has 8K of program space, 512 bytes (yes, bytes) of memory. That microprocessor then drives 3 shift registers. One for the button input, and two for the display output. Shift registers shouldn't be used to drive LEDs, but it works, and doing it this way keeps the cost down.
A collection of silly blobcat emojis. Multiple species are represented:
Vaguely like blobcats.
My custom emoji packs should work on any platform that supports using custom images as emojis or stickers. Below are instructions for just some of these platforms.
You can also copy-and-paste discrete Neocats.

Do you exist? If yes, you most certainly need blobcats in your life! And how to better meet this need than with my blobcat emoji pack? It is (from what I know) the very first consistent blobcat pack released under a free licence! Each blobcat was created with love, care, and a touch of clumsiness (since cats are a bit clumsy, after all). The emoji are being translated into the following languages, before being prepared for download in the PNG format.
Blobcats are a mystery. Despite being the subject of intense scientific research for many years, no one is really sure how and where they’ve first appeared. However, a likely theory on their origins does exist.
In the year of our Lord 2013, the ill-willed company Google has released an emoji pack consisting of so-called ‘blobs’; jelly-like drops with facial expressions. Although they were not universally loved, they possessed very strong individuality, which has won many people over. Unfortunately, their time in the spotlight has only lasted four years; in 2017, they were replaced by the more ordinary round emoji.
By some stroke of genius, someone thought to create a genetic mixture of a blob and a cat, thereby creating the very first blobcats. The exact time and place are not known, but at some point, the internet started seeing emoji in that same form, but with remarkable feline features.
A collaborative note taking, wiki and documentation platform that scales. Built with Django and React. Opensource alternative to Notion or Outline. Works offline; write locally and it'll re-synch when you come back. Tries to concentrate on clean documents, not lots of formatting. Optimized for multiuser collaboration. Granular access controls. Can export to the usual document formats.
Hard requirements: Kubernetes, Postgres, memcached, an S3-compatible bucket for storage, and an OIDC provider for authentication. Heavy enough that I'd call it enterprisey.
A pair of tiny PCBs that get soldered underneath the CIA 6526A chips in Commodore computers. They contain ESD protection diodes that provide a better path for static shocks to travel which doesn't go right into the chips to blow them out. If the CIAs are socketed they go right between the socket and the chip. If they're not you'll have to desolder them (and you may as well install sockets while you're at it). Short, only 5mm high.
