Do you have any specific recommendation?
I was looking into:

I haven’t tried yet with CAN busses but I’m interested. Is there anything super cool I could do with CAN that I can’t do with SPI or I2C?
While I haven’t worked with raw microcontrollers (no-module mc) yet, once I worked with a microchip and wrote a library from ground up to get the chip running. That was amazing :)
Which programmer can you recommend? (I’m on macOS btw) I think I will buy the ATTiny 10 tiny buddy.
The native look and feel of iCloud on macOS, no overhead
Thank for mentioning Caddy. I’m currently using Nginx. Caddy seems to be awesome!
I’d love to have my own movie collection with Jellyfin. How’s your experience so far? Do you use torrents and how do you protect your IP?
I never became friends with Nextcloud for some reason :/ Long story short: I have lots of files but not large ones. For nextcloud there’s no deep system integration like Apple iCloud has (basically just enter your credentials and everything else is handled and it’s fast + end-to-end encrypted). I’d set up an instance if I had frens who would use it as well
I think the only thing that makes me worry a little bit is that Microsoft has my source code. It’s not “bad” but sometimes I think about it. So I probably need a gitea instance then.
Edit: it’s interesting that you mentioned private messenger. I just built one (using Bluetooth Mesh routing with a basic encryption for 1-on-1 chats) and am waiting for App Store approval. :)
I have an expensive VPS at AWS which I mainly use to host my projects :D
It’s a thermal printer, so no ink :)
Maybe it was during an update. I can reach it
Thank you I start to like lemmy
Yes, this is the project I saw a couple days ago! It inspired me.
Impressive knowledge. It would be cool to experiment with it but when I do microcontroller projects I usually wire the MCU board right next to the module I’m controlling. I can imagine though that it’s easier to put the microcontroller right next to a reliable power source and then use CAN to control/read/write the device/module from a further distance. But wait, why wouldn’t I use a wireless protocol instead?
I was actually just reading about the different protocols that can be used to flash an unsoldered microprocessor and I came to the conclusion that I can flash most of the MCUs with hardware I already have. I can flash the ATtiny MCUs and ATmega MCUs with the Arduino Uno as an ISP using jumper wires. I can also flash one ESP32 with another ESP32 by, for example, loading an esp-usb-bridge or serial flasher firmware onto an ESP dev board and using it as a programmer. I can flash an MSP430 via JTAG or Spy-Bi-Wire using my Raspberry Pi Pico debug probe. My hardware covers almost all cases, the only thing I’m really missing is a programmer that supports PIC ICSP :/
Usually, I use vscode + platformio and I can really recommend it.
My purchase list is this:
