Open-Frame1 VS hackernews-badge

Agreed that keyboards are a good early project. To add to that, if you play video games, leverless arcade controllers can be a fun build also. Pretty similar overall as far as parts and shape, but the firmware they run (stuff like GP2040-CE or HayBox) make them act as controllers instead of keyboards, and they can even work on game consoles. Specifically I'd recommend the Flatbox rev 5[0] and the Open-Frame1[1].

Uhhh, it is custom. I can try and find the schematic. I have the website that shows how to order it. They’re from china. Jlpcb. https://github.com/GregTurbo/Open-Frame1

This is what I’m doing the method doesn’t mention using the riser not sure if I need it. Will it just make it easier to align the pico? https://github.com/GregTurbo/Open-Frame1

reposting this tutorial I made some time ago to help bridge the divide, at the end you get a physical Hacker News Badge - https://github.com/jareklupinski/hackernews-badge

Definitely! Right now it only checks whether the latest karma does not equal the previous karma: https://github.com/jareklupinski/hackernews-badge/blob/main/...

Changing the condition for this branch, for example to

if ((previousKarma + 500) < userKarma || (previousKarma - 500) > userKarma) {

would make the notification go off when the karma has changed by at least 500. For high value accounts, the variables should probably be changed to 'long's as well... I enjoyed the light show tonight ;)
