ESP8266, Arduino, Raspberry Pi.
What projects are you guys working on ?
Im working on a WiFi connected relay board for floodlights, that can have schedule uploaded and stored on the flash chip.
I also have a bunch or PIR motion sensors, reed switches, temperature sensor and soil moisture probes that i have no idea what to do with... ideas?

I'ma build myself a motion sensor which can trigger my EOS700D so I can take photos of myself riding my dirtbike kek
>>
I put an ESP8266 and a relay in a fan so I can turn it on from bed
I honestly can't think of much more to do with them then use them as wifi-controlled switches
>>
>>61277560
cool, you could also use a laser pointer and a photo cell to make a trip beam circuit if u want to hit the focus spot perfectly.
Playing with my PIR sensor i find there can be up to 1 second delay before it triggers, and sometimes not, it seems random.

Do you backup your data on a regular basis?
How do you do it?

i just copy paste to an external hard drive but would like a better way

Hourly backups with Time Machine
Latest backup synced to a remote server nightly

>>61277457
Like twice a year onto a external HDD through timemachine.
Not the best practice, but it's better than nothing.

I have to know if refurbished / used Galaxy S5 with LOS is a meme or not.
>Pros:
1. Amazing value (costs $100~)
2. Great camera
3. Great screen
4. Replaceable battery
>Cons:
1. 2GB ram
2. Usb-3
3. Snapdragon 801
Is there anything better for the price?

Add the swipeable fingerprint sensor to the cons, but i wouldn't use it anyway.
>>
>Extra pros:
Water resistant - I've shot videos underwater a couple of years ago and it's still going strong
Infrared blaster - to use as a remote control and whatever else its used for
I've had mine for 5 years now but just recently installed lineage and it works great

If you want help:
>Assemble your parts list
https://pcpartpicker.com/
>State the budget for your build (and country if not the USA)
>List games/software you use often, as well as your monitor resolution + refresh rate
>Clarify your goal for build improvements: lower price or improved specs?
How to assemble a PC, select components & more (kind of outdated)
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php?title=Build_a_PC
CPUs:
No i5 unless discounted
>G4560/G4600 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R5 1400 - Cheapest quad core you can get (Ryzen 3 soon)
>R5 1500x - Good but up to 1600 if you can
>R5 1600 - Best value for higher fps gaming / mixed usage; 1600x if you want higher stock clocks
>i7 7700k - 144hz only
>R7/Used Xeon/Threadripper - Compute/Multitask/VM/mixed use; Not for just gaming
GPUs:
Coin miners have driven price up and stock down, waiting to buy a GPU might be wiser
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and very light games
>GTX 1050(Ti) - Lower end budget cards, drop settings on newer games, RX560 beaten by both
>RX570 - 1080p@60~hz maxed, running most maxed older games at 100~Hz
>RX580 and GTX1060 6GB - 1080p@80hz maxed, 1440p@60hz at lower settings; RX580 better in newer games
>GTX 1070 - 1080p@130hz /1440p@60hz at high
>GTX 1080 - 1080p@144hz / 1440p@60hz maxed, 4k@60hz in a few games; Probably the highest end card you need for 1080p/1440p
>GTX 1080Ti - 1440p@144hz and 4k@60hz maxed/high in many games
RAM:
>Check your Mobo QVL before buying any RAM
>Ryzen CPUs benefits a lot from high speed RAM
General:
ALWAYS LOOK AT PRODUCT REVIEWS!
Always consider an SSD. Try buying a large SSD for what you'd pay for your SSD+HDD combined, and add a HDD later
NVMe SSDs aren't for a faster OS boot, they're for productivity/scratch disk/VMs. NVMe and M.2 are not the same thing, M.2 is a form factor.
The Ryzen lineup comes with surprisingly good stock coolers. consider using them over any <$30 cooler.
Buying used is perfectly fine for budgets (PSU excluded)

Why is MediaTek such a terrible company?
1. They regularly fuck over their customers (you want those smartphone SoC we promised we would deliver now? you need to wait 6 more months, and no, we are not going to give you partial refund for breaking the contract).
2. They never release the modifications to GPL software they're using.
3. They go out of way to make it impossible for tinkerers to make custom ROMs.
4. They cut off kernel updates to customers prematurely so they can't support smartphones with MediaTek SoC for longer than 24 months even if the manufacturers wanted to.
MediaTek is now rapidly losing market share because of all this, yet they won't correct any of this shit.
Why?
