Hackaday editors Elliot Williams and Mike Szczys gather to ooh and aah over a week of interesting hacks. This week we’re delighted to welcome special guest Kristina Panos to talk about the Inputs of Interest series she has been working on over the last couple of years. In the news is the effort to pwn the new Apple AirTags, with much success over the past week. We look at turning a screenless Wacom tablet into something more using a donor iPad, stare right into the heart of a dozen 555 die shots, and watch what happens when you only 3D print the infill and leave the perimeters out.
Take a look at the links below if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

I’m sure a dozen people will also truthfully claim this, but I heard the “What’s that Sound?” clip last week in transit, and thought, “Oh, that sounds like a teletype — it’s probably an ASR 33,” and then forgot to follow up. Sic transit gloria mundi.
We’ll have something for you to feel bad about this week too, then! :)
please, that keyboard, where its come from ?
My 3D printer; I designed and made it myself.
I need to write it up on Hackaday.io someday…
you Must do, a least the project! please!
