And just as we're getting hot up about hacking with the RasPi here comes a possible more powerful hackware.
Ouya - $99 It's developers says it's fully hackable. Check out the specs. Quad core CPU! |

QUOTE(nyem @ Jul 29 2012, 02:34 AM) 43 days! Not too bad.Added on July 29, 2012, 1:07 pmHas any RasPi owner attempted to build something on their RasPi besides just installing various OS on it? Where are the hardware hacks? This post has been edited by totally_skint: Jul 29 2012, 01:07 PM |

QUOTE(willer @ Aug 1 2012, 09:41 AM) Yup, that is Intel atom d525mw, I use 12v 2A external hardisk power supply connect to pico 12v dc-dc ATX socket,then to motherboard. A 18watt pc... Wow! 40 buckaroos! Click Here for PICO Power supply details.  Did you buy from this US seller? With shipping total that's the price of a new Atom board. Is there any cheaper DIY version or local source? |

QUOTE(willer @ Aug 1 2012, 12:31 PM) actually no need to get this kind of converter, any 10years old casing atx power can run the board. There was an Intel board has build in 12v socket. Bulky.If for reality use, I will suggest atom d2700 for home theater system, just 10watt That's the reason to use boards with DC-IN or use DC-DC adaptors. |

QUOTE(tanseehua @ Aug 5 2012, 04:17 PM) yes purchase at Element14 below RM150 will need to pay RM20 shipping fee. Above RM150 is free shipping. Damn!So if I only want an IC costing RM5 I gotta pay RM20 shipping? |

QUOTE(skywardsword @ Aug 17 2012, 12:11 PM) Previously, I just went to local cell phone shop to buy a cell phone charger, htc one. Cost me like 60bucks, I know I got the "ripoff" price, and the sd card also very expensive. That's why I always tell my friends NOT to buy memory cards from handphone shops.However you have to be careful buying cheap chargers. Check out this post. Cheap charger |

QUOTE(skywardsword @ Aug 18 2012, 09:08 AM) speaking of which, I need to get a new digital multimeter, a fine tip soldering iron, solder wire, solder removal(braided), Gertboard via element14 , another 2 pi case+ 2 pi. You hope?That should bump me up to free shipping I hope! I tried measuring my pi's voltage at the 2 point on the pcb as specified by some guide, but due to my multimeter being inaccurate, it measured less voltage I think. but pi is working fine for months now. You've way exceeded. What project are you planning to do? |

QUOTE(skywardsword @ Aug 18 2012, 10:06 AM) I am thinking about a simple mechanical physical actuation device. Like a simple device to pull a plug. That type of thing, just to start thing. Try ordering from Element14 MalaysiaBut I just notice, element14 Singapore cannot ship to Malaysia ... so sad... I might have to beg my Uncle to have it shipped to his place then somehow bring it back to JB. But if you live in JB then the Uncle Courier Service can work too.  Damn! The Gertboard is even more expensive than the Pi. Maybe you can build one yourself? Or how about using Arduino Shields on the Pi? |

QUOTE(skywardsword @ Aug 24 2012, 11:03 AM) Yet to set up remote with the Pi since I donnu what remote to use and I cheap skate... just use keyboard and walk to the keyboard by my tv. For a "cheapskate" try this IR receiver hack(of course got bluetooth keyboard+mouse would also be sufficient.... i got keyboard but not mouse... sigh) Barebones IR hack |
