Hackaday Links

I’ve used coral cache for anything I thought might go down. You can always remove the .nyud.net:8090 if there are problems.

  1. wow, the PS2&Xbox in one case that the dude in the PS2 doorbell link is awesome.

    Ghetto pc is um… dope… yo.

    how do people solder those tiny SMT componets like the ones on the usb-rs232 dongle? i’d say that it’d be impossible to do with a regular iron.

  2. and i thought they were “for tobacco use only”. Who knew your local head shop had the major components for a high-temp blowtorch? seriously though, your average water pipe would be perfect for the bubbletorch.

  3. Could somebody explain the “OSX in your browser” link? Is this supposed to be some sort of web-based OS X interface with web-based apps, or is this just a fancy interface for a website about a special version of OS X?

  4. I respect the effort of the USB dongle, but man is that thing huge!
    They are pocket-sized now!

    Still a very nice way to demonstrate the concept, however.
    A built-it-yourself USB to Serial dongle would be an awesome educational project on so many levels.

  5. I dont know why nobody mentioned the line follower robots, they are friggin’ cool, im gonna make one next week. super cool shit, as always thanks for the links guys, eliot, hackaday and weblogs inc..

  6. That molex connector link seems to be dead or broken, so I didn’t get to see what they suggest using for pin removers.
    For the pins inside of the larger power connectors (i.e. to a hard drive), I use the straws off of CapriSun juices. They are the perfect size, and since I am friggin addicted to Red Berry, I have a large surplus of them on my floor. hehe.
