Welcome to the Celestial Temple! I've created this website with the hopes of honing my WebDev skills.
With the advent of vibe coding and self proclaimed "developers" managing to obtain investment for half-finished vulnerable applications, as a life-long computer geek I feel obligated to finally teach myself how to properly code!
I've been coding utilizing a plethora of sources, including W3Schools, MDN and Github Co-pilot.
A personal weather channel utilizing a Raspberry Pi Zero, Network Hat and wpg-weatherchan to log and display Environment Canada Weather data. Features a repurposed USB Headphones to be used as an output Audio device, and Composite Out (for that extra retro feel) from the Raspberry Pi hooked into a Coaxial Modulator for viewing the house.
Lacking a 3D printer but still having a burning desire to make a keypad from scratch, I concoted this proof of concept.
Featuring a hand wired keypad matrix, using schottky diodes and the legs from them as matrix pathways soldered by hand.
The housing for the keypad was made from the box that the switches came in, along with some tape as an attempt to give the device some semblance of reinforcement. Unfortunately the integrity of the keypad was mostly dependant upon the welds of the matrix pathways, so it ended up falling apart after about a week of use.
Utilizes a Raspberry Pi Pico, CircuitPython and KMK firmware.
Made using a RPi Pico, 1K pull up resistor, spare wire and header pins, and code from David Pagels.
Compatible with Windows, Linux and Nintendo Switch! Fun project and a neat way to be able to utilize your N64 controller on multiple platforms.
a low-cost N64 development cartridge designed for N64 homebrew development.
features a 16MB Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller, for ample space for all your projects! Great for running the Super Mario 64 speedrun ROM on real hardware.
Project by K Beckmann on Github.
Homemade Xbox360 Wireless Controller adapter using a harvested Wireless module from a RROD'd Xbox360.
A couple of diodes and a spare USB end is all you need to make a wireless adapter with full Windows compatibility. Great way to use your old Xbox360 Guitar Hero or Rock Band controllers without needing to modify them!
