Hi! I’m new here, fed up with the more common American social media. I remember the fun old days of surfing the internet, hopping from one homepage to another! For now, Mastodon feels a bit like that. Correct me if you disagree!
Anyway, I love aikido, good stories, saunas, good breakfasts (Scandinavian & British style!), and well-made cocktails. Used to code in HTML/CSS and dream of learning more IT, but time’s always short!
@karlailona Welcome in the Fediverse

@karlailona Welcome! Mastodon and the Fediverse can be really good fun. Now you mention it it can be like blogging or even forums.
Just take your time, find your people and settle in. Here's to you enjoying your time here.

@karlailona Well I don't use a modem to dial in any more that's for sure 😁

@LappenjammerDieZweite Imagine now you can use the internet even when someone is on the phone!

@karlailona Most people don't know what a landline was even for.

@karlailona so what do you do now if you used to code ?

@karlailona welcome! Completely agree that Mastodon feels like a breath of fresh air, albeit from the good old days!

@karlailona I am likewise fed up with American social media as well as American media, American society, and most other American things. I blame my European great-grandparents for exiling me here in the USA. Mastodon is far more cosmopolitan and civilized than US social media (despite a poll I recently conducted on the pull-my-finger prank being one of the most popular topics I have ever introduced on Mastodon).

@JosephMeyer Haha, the US isn’t exactly being viewed too positively right now. The whole world order seems to be shifting, curious to see how it turns out!
I’ve only been using Mastodon (is that the right way to say it? I also see ‘in the fediverse’ a lot 😅) for a few days, and I’m amazed by how different it feels without the addictive algorithms and overly engaging features! I can almost feel my brain calming down!

@karlailona so what do you do now if you used to code ?
@BigG I’m a signlanguage interpreter! Super fun and challenging too!

Ovvio, ma non mi è mai servito a molto, quindi, cambiato il sistema di pagamento dell'istanza ho preferito non averne più a che fare. 🤷

Building a Neatly Framed Word Clock
Reading analog clocks is a pretty straightforward skill to learn. However, if you’ve already learned to read and don’t want to pick up the extra skill, a word clock is a perfect solution for telling time. [povey_tech] found some nice examples in the wild but didn’t appreciate the price, so he set about building his own.
The build is based around an ESP32 microcontroller. While many projects in this vein would use the onboard wireless connectivity to query network time servers, in this case, the board relies on the user manually setting the time and a DS1307 real-time-clock module to keep a steady tick. Also onboard is a VEML7700 ambient light sensor, which the microcontroller uses to control the brightness of the WS2812 LEDs inside the board.
The words themselves are laser cut out of acrylic panels, with everything set inside a tidy oak picture frame. A layer of anti-reflective glass in front helps cut down on glare, while [povey_tech] was so kind as to implement two LEDs per letter to allow for lovely color gradients to be displayed. Configuring the clock is easy thanks to a webpage hosted on the ESP32 that allows for control of dimming modes, colors, and setting the time. Home Assistant integration is something planned for the future.
We’ve seen many great word clocks over the years. Perhaps the biggest leap forward in this world was the development of the addressable LED strip which made constructing these clocks much easier.
