Well, this is rather fascinating! Some mad genius hacked a Nokia Lumia 1020 to run #Apple’s #iOS for #iPhone. The trick? Inside the Lumia is an iPhone SE 3!! Still pretty damned cool, if I do say so myself. #retrocomputing #hardwarehacks #tech https://www.macworld.com/article/2611931/someone-hacked-a-windows-phone-to-run-ios.html

🔧✨ Small-Batch Production: Still Alive and Thriving! ✨🔧

Think small-batch manufacturing is dead? Merad proved otherwise at @hackaday Supercon! His rail mod for aluminum enclosures is flexible and affordable, perfect for tight budgets. Plus, silicone keypads and laser-cut wood veneers make 3D prints look classy!

Small-scale electronics are possible with some clever tricks. Stay inspired and keep building! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFbdnSWPl_8

If you’ve got yourself an OG #Apple #iMac G3 and can't work on it because the internal sub-frame is falling apart, there is a fix on the way! I'm more of a PowerBook guy, but I'm dealing with some brittle plastics as well, but I feel for my G3 peeps.

So prying the cover off and have a look to see if I can find what has failed. So took the top off, all the wires seemed intact none of the sockets where loose built in single sided phonolic PCB for extra cheapness. Noting a couple of missing components but nothing out of the ordinary just a cap and a crystal not unusual if it had a more integrated solution. Thinking rest of the components are on the other side probably a GL850 hub IC #hardware #hardwarehacking #hardwarehacks

Just had a Monday morning electronics LOL. I have had this 4 port usb hub on my desk for a few weeks. I found it knocking around at work and thought it would be useful. Well plugged it in and none of the ports appeared to work. #thread #electronics #teardown #hardware #hardwarehacking #hardwarehacks

This is attempt #4 for DIY eye tracking in the vive pro 2

It... Works but I'm going for a revision 6 to maybe move all the LEDs behind the shroud.

Yes I skipped photographing 5 because it was worse.

In VR I can use single eye tracking reliably but dual eye leads to so many crossed eye moments.

Solved this morning I have put a diode in the way to prevent the line being pulled up by the other device. Now it is just relying on the PIC to pull the Comms line high. #electronics #debugging #hardwarehacks

Thinking over modding my ~1998 Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Force Feedback Steering wheel. Back in the day (~10 years ago) someone showed how to make it go up to around 900 degrees. (See below why only 900)

Problem is that there is from what I can tell, 7 sets of wires that go to buttons inside the wheel, like face buttons, and at 900 degrees you're putting a ton of stress on them.

So I'm reaching out into the world and asking all of you: How would you solve this?
