Hello, I’m starting a project to build something for a friends kid who’s father is a Huey pilot. I ordered the switch/panel in the image and want to 3d print an enclosure to mount it on that plays the song when the switch is in the on position.
Per the website the switch is fully functional, I just need to wire it to something to use it. Does anyone have suggestions on a bare bones controller to use and how to set it up to play an MP3 so long as the switch is in the on position? In a perfect world I would love for it to resume the position if it’s quickly toggled but restart if it sits more than a minute or so but realistically just playing the song would be more than enough.
While I’m new to Raspberry Pi I’m not that daunted by the task. I’ve been soldering since elementary school and have a degree in comp sci, but haven’t done any coding since graduating 10+ years ago. I do have a Pi hole but using an off the shelf package on a premade pi with step by step instructions doesn’t really count as “experience” for pi in my opinion.
Any suggestions are welcome, especially if someone can recommend some mini speakers that actually sound half decent. I’m not looking to tear a Bose Bluetooth apart but something slightly less tin-canny than a 2004 Nokia ringtone would be nice.
Thanks in advance!
If you use it to control the TV the only thing it can do is turn it off permanently.
I don’t get it, the title actually says what the point is… wtf is going on here. Shouldn’t it say “#1 pirated show of 2023 revealed!!!!” or “NETFLIX BEATS OUT DISNEY WITH SURPRISE PIRACY RANKING!!”
It’s almost 2024, I didn’t think meaningful titles were allowed anymore.
Until the exemptions for “light trucks” go away this won’t change. The current CAFE standards reward automakers for making even larger, less efficient and more dangerous “passenger” vehicles every year.
Was just given a streamlight wedge at work and so far I’m really liking it. It’s not anything super special but it’s bright enough for what I need and the form factor is amazing. Much more comfortable in a pocket and sits flat even when wearing a harness over it. Battery life has been sufficient too, I’m yet to ever have any issues with occasional top offs every few days.
A secret service vehicle likely has fully automatic weapons inside as well as encrypted radios with current keys and who knows what level of sensitive real time info on presidential movements. It wasn’t just an “unoccupied car” it was a liability that could lead to real danger to the public.
“The right to discuss is a privilege“
That word, I don’t think it means what you think it mean.
The Chinese are absolutely allowed to fly planes there. What is against international law is unsafe intercepts and flying within 10 feet of another aircraft.
You mean in international airspace over international waters?
Bigger and heavier vehicles (more specifically “trucks” which aren’t legally defined by their beds and encompass virtually anything larger than a simple sedan) are exempt from the majority of fuel economy standards. As a result many auto makers have just straight up stopped making “cars” and shifted entirely to larger vehicles because they can get away with more emissions. Yes, a 2023 SUV is slightly more efficient than a 2013 SUV, but so many more of them are being sold instead of cars that the overall emissions are way higher. I love my Ford Focus from 2017 but Ford literally cancelled every single sedan, coupe and hatchback other than the Mustang and now exclusively makes SUVs, trucks and a single sports car.
I mean, California bans this as well and they aren’t exempt despite being where Reddit is located. Spez doesn’t seem to care what is legal.
Edit It has been pointed out that I latched onto the color and shape of the grill that is generally on the sportier Ford Foci and forgot about the 2012 base model. I hate when people delete comments and leave a graveyard of broken context so I'm leaving it up but I was wrong on what the blue car is.
Interesting, the blue car is clearly a ‘09 Ford Focus RS but it appears to be in Nitrous Blue, a color only available on the ‘16-‘18 Focus RS. Seems very specific.
In what world does the Barbie movie have a plot that requires a map showing territorial waters of the South China Sea? Even if she was traveling the world this specific part of a map seems like it’s zero value added.
Last I saw I thought he was also criminally charged since this was well outside the scope of castle doctrine or no duty to retreat. Both of them require a reasonable threat which was not present.
