#introduction
Hi, I'm a masc-y enby Dane living near #Geelong. I've called Australia home for almost 12 years.
I have been writing software professionally for ~20 years in a wife variety of programming languages; including but not limited to: C/C++, C#, Python, JavaScript, Rust, Go, Erlang, VBScript.
I've worked in a range of different industries but have had most fun when the outcome was to enrich peoples lives.
Occasionally I'll post about my #beagles on #DogsOfFedi #DogsOfMastodon (see photo attached for dog tax)
I'd like to do more #electronics and #embedded projects both in my free time and at work. So I keep my #kicad, #freecad and #RustEmbedded/ #RustLang skill trees full of points.
#BoardGames are often being played with my wife and friends.
Trying to find #ttrpg buddies for afk play
I don't post much about #baking or #sourdough, but I have a starter that I've kept around for a number of years now. My wife and I make pizzas and burgers weekly. We both love cooking and entertaining guests with elaborate meals.
I used to do a lot of #SCUBA #diving before 2020 came around. I even trained to be an open water instructor.
I dream of a #SolarPunk future and to live in a society where hate doesn't fill every heart with darkness.
Recently picked up #LockPicking as a fiddle activity while waiting for $job things compiling (Building #NixOS on aarch64 takes a long time)
Wish to ditch my phone for an open computing platform and I secretly want to develop an OS too but that does require a lot of spoons that I currently don't possess.

So many articles on how to attach a cable to a BNC connectors, and not a single one on the order of mounted ones.
What is the right order once you have put the connector into the box?
Washer first? Soldering thingie first?

Today I learned that ADI aren't selling to individuals any more and have instructed all their distributors not to either.. :( So... this kinda sucks. There's now a whole lot of parts for my boards I can no longer buy.
I wonder what the workarounds for this are now..

So, about a year ago, we cancelled DirecTV, and they told us the equipment was too old to return, and we should trash it.
I just came across the stuff and pulled it apart to put the PCBs and metals into recycling. Wasn't expecting this.
Does anyone know, off the top of your head, if a "Video HDD" is functionally different from a regular HDD? Or do I have to go and find my USB/SATA adapter stuff? :-)

Heyooo, I'm Tove! I'm an old computer poker with more interests than time (autistic and probably ADHD). Some of the more recurring ones are software dev, microelectronics, whittling, knitting/crochet, reading, political science/anthropology/sociology/history/etcetc and games. Want to open an anarchist/free neighborhood electronics repair "shop" when I grow up. As a stepping stone (and while waiting for the revolution), maybe I can set up a home lab to do it from? I am terrible at social interactions and seems to have developed social anxiety in the decade or so of really bad mental health I'm just about crawling out of. Initiating contact with others is very hard for me, so might not do it often. Also, I will probably come to the conclusion that reaching out to someone makes me a bother or annoying or just too weird, so for their sake I refrain, usually. But will absolutely try to engage if others take the initiative! (Probably badly. Fair warning.) Initiate contact and you'll probably become my favourite person! Keep being the awesomeness that you are! <3

Those who know electronics a bit more than me: homemade cap discharge tool with a 20k ohm, 5W resistor with a 12AWG cable rated at 600V, sounds reasonable? (I think ifixit is a pretty reliable source: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Constructing+a+Capacitor+Discharge+Tool/2177 )

#Battery and #repair nerds, need help finding the correct(ish) battery for a device.
It's a mini Digital TV that was made like 10+ years ago and still works fine, but the battery is shot and doesn't hold a charge.
I sort of know how to read one of these batteries, but am having a hard time finding an exact match. It doesn't need to be EXACTLY the same, in fact I'd be fine with a much larger capacity battery, as long as it fits inside the compartment on the tv - and is the correct polarity, because a lot of the ones I am seeing have the red and black wires in the opposite configuration and I don't have the manual dexterity to re-wire one of these anymore.
Amazon, AliExpress, wherever, can anybody match something up to this?
