I have to say, I'm pretty angry about the fact that #Nintendo decided against using #HallEffect or TSM switches for the joy-cons. I thought they had at least learnt the lesson, but it seems they are insistent on using those cheap and fragile magnetic strip switches... I'm very disappointed.

My #8BitDo #SN30Pro started drifting down on the left joystick about 2 weeks ago. I've had it for about 2 years, right before they came out with the ultimate software (which this model isn't compatible with) and at the time, I wasn't doing enough serious gaming to warrant a higher end device. In fact, I was compelled by the RPi compatibility. I'm going to do some maintenance (firmware refresh, check internals) and see if I can resolve it. The controller has put in a lot of good work and it serves most needs. It could be worth an upgrade, there's nothing special about 8BitDo joysticks compared to others, but I'm pretty sure I didn't choose to get the #hallEffect ones which are designed to reduce (though arguably not able to eliminate) drift. Any device with joysticks (like the PSP) that's "travel sized" still don't make me less afraid of damaging joysticks when traveling. I'd consider passing it on to a friend curious about controllers. It's a great starter, especially for indie gamers.

One for the #homeassistant #iot bubble: What manufacturer and/or series has decent #matter #thread sensors these days? To be clear, I don't want any proprietary bridges.

Initial focus would be on #halleffect or even #mems sensors, air #temperature #humidity #particle and #co2, and movement ideally through #mmwave

Decent pricing or a reliable Chinese source preferred.

#retoot appreciated

A new Time Extension news report about Hyperkin’s hall effect Nintendo 64 joystick mod crossed my feed reader. When I first read the article, I thought I had previously written about this in The New Leaf Journal, but it turns out that I had written about an 8BitDo hall effect mod. I happen to be a fan both of good hall effect controllers and the original, unique, Nintendo 64 joystick. The latter point gives me some pause about the Hyperkin mod. I quote from the Time Extension report: “Mimicking the GameCube’s analogue stick, you’ll be able to ‘feel the nostalgia and comfort of the GameCube era while dominating your favourite N64 games. This stick is designed for maximum comfort and a competitive edge, making long gaming sessions a breeze.'” While I prefer the GameCube controller to the Nintendo 64 controller, the Nintendo 64 had a more interesting (albeit less durable) joystick. If we are releasing mods, I would prefer one that preserves the feel of the original instead of replacing it with a more generic GameCube-style joystick, durability aside.

My left Nintendo Switch Joy-Con is drifting so bad that I keep dying in Breath pf the Wild. Very frustrating. I barely even played that much! It seems it's just a matter of old age instead of wear and tear.

Anyways, I found out that an entire iFixit pro tech toolkit and two new hall effect joysticks are just slightly more expensive than a pair of new joy-cons. So I went for the more sustainable option. Would you like to see photos/videos of the repair?

I now have 3 Hall Effect Dual Senses. This one was a challenge, thanks to Sony's constant revisions. Got the eBay Purple one today. Wanted to just stick the board into my OG white one, but the insides were different enough I had to swap the entire guts over. Then I realized the R1 buttons weren't the same. After putting it together the 1st time, noticed the charge port had moved. Got all that sorted and sticks calibrated (see alt text). Tested, no drift. 😎 #DIY #Tech #DualSense #HallEffect

A white Dual Sense shell with purple buttons, touch pad, and D-pad sits on my lap. I like it, actually, but it's only like this because Sony keeps changing things. the cables for all the buttons/touch pad had been changed in the purple controller I received today. so the board in it wasn't compatible with the internals of the OG white controller. this meant I had to move the guts from the purple one into the white one, including the touch pad, so I figured I'd move the face buttons over and complete the Frieza look. another thing to note: the purple board has all 4 haptic motor wires soldered to it instead of 2 on each side.my green gloved hand holds the Dual Sense so that the shoulder buttons face the camera. the R1 looks kinda mangled. this is because Sony changed how they're formed. The controller I bought didn't have an R1 so I went to pop the one from my OG white controller in and the internal slide was too wide, and about 2 millimeters off from the slot it should go into. so I cut the slide narrower, then heated up one side of the button and pressed it flatter. then I shaved off some plastic and then sanded the button so it would fit into the shell. it's not pretty but it'll work till I can find the correct button/some aftermarket stuff.close up look at the slight "alteration" I did to the Dual Sense shell so I could use the USB-C charging port. used my soldering iron to melt enough plastic to open the port hole about 2-3 millimeters since that's about how much Sony moved it. again, ain't pretty but I don't care lol.

Still daily driving the Arbiter Studio Polar 65 Neo Tokyo. Definitely the best keyboard I've ever owned. I quickly grew to love this thing. Great sound, great performance, just lovely.

It was fun playing with a sci-fi style in this image which represents #CLIMAT : a new method developed by Artem Musiienko at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin and based on the #HallEffect. With this technique it's possible to resolve simultaneously 14 different parameters of #electrons and #holes in #semiconductors!

More details on the press release available at: helmholtz-berlin.de/pubbin/new

#SciArt #SciComm

perovskite with electrons and holes moving over the surface in opposite direction and bending their path as affected by a magnetic field, which is represented by two magnets. The central electron-hole pair is hit by a light beam and project in a sci-fi way the symbols of the respective properties that the experiment in the paper reveals

Turns out you can measure the flow rate of the Florida Current (part of the #gulfstream) by measuring the voltage that develops across the current using a decommissioned submarine telephone cable that runs between Florida and the Bahamas.

The voltage develops due to the differential Lorenz forces experienced by ions in the seawater as they move through the earth magnetic field. Basically a giant #halleffect.

PSA: iFixit now sells the Gulikit hall effect joystick replacements for the Switch's Joycons, so you don't have to figure out the right seller and listing on Amazon, or even use Amazon at all.
