Podcast appearances and mentions of al williams

This week, Hackaday's Elliot Williams and Al Williams caught up after a week-long hiatus. There was a lot to talk about, including clocks, DIY USB cables, and more. In Hackaday news, the 2025 Pet Hacks Contest is a wrap. Winners will be announced soon, so stay tuned. Meanwhile, how'd you like a free ticket to attend Supercon? Well, free if you submit a talk and get accepted. November is right around the corner, so get those talks ready. Hackaday is a big fan of the NOAA Polar sats, and it looks like they are on their last figurative legs. The agency has left them up for now, but won't be keeping them in shape, and if they misbehave, they may be neutralized for safety. Since Elliot was off, Al supplied the sound, and in a bout of karma, Elliot had to do the guessing this week. How'd he do? Not bad, but there's room to do better. If you do better, there could be a coveted Hackaday Podcast T-shirt in your future. Moving on the hacks, the guys were interested in magnets, clocks, cables, 3D printed machine tools, and even old moonbase proposals. For the can't miss articles, Al took the bifecta, since Elliot picked a piece on the machine that generated laugh tracks in the latter part of the 20th century and Al shamelessly picked his own article about the role of British ham radio operators during WWII. Miss anything? Check out the links and catch up. As always, drop a comment and tell us what you think about the week in Hackaday.

In this episode of the Make it Big Podcast by BigCommerce, host Melissa Dixon and guest Al Williams take a deep dive into our latest industry report all about Navigating the Ecommerce Evolution and how brands are adapting to stay competitive. Al is our resident retail expert and Vice President and General Manager of B2C, so sit back and tune in to hear her insightful interpretation of the report's data and actionable advice you can apply to your online business to navigate the future of ecommerce.

When Hackaday editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams need a break from writing posts, they hop on the podcast and talk about their favorite stories of the past week. Want to know what they were talking about? Listen in below and find out! In an unusual twist, a listener sent in the sound for this week's What's This Sound competition, so it turns out Elliot and Al were both stumped for a change. See if you can do better, and you might just score a Hackaday Podcast T-shirt. On the hacking front, the guys talked about what they hope to see as entries in the pet hacking contest, quantum diamonds (no kidding), spectrometers, and several science projects. There was talk of a tiny robot, a space mouse—the computer kind, not a flying rodent—and even an old-fashioned photophone that let Alexander Graham Bell use the sun like a string on a paper cup telephone. Things really heat up at the end, when there is talk about computer programming ranging from COBOL to Vibe programming. In case you've missed it, Vibe programming is basically delegating your work to the AI, but do you really want to? Maybe, if your job is to convert all that old COBOL code.

The answer is: Elliot Williams, Al Williams, and a dozen or so great hacks. The question?  What do you get this week on the Hackaday podcast? This week's hacks ran from smart ring hacking, to computerized tattoos. Keyboards, PCBs, and bicycles all make appearances, too. Be sure to try to guess the "What's that sound?" You could score a cool Hackaday Podcast T. For the can't miss this week, Hackaday talks about how to dispose of the body in outer space and when setting your ship's clock involved watching a ball drop.  

Ket tells Kim about the scariest movie sh'd ever seen in her life when she was 9 yrs old, Arachnophobia. Like all things in the 90's, it contained propaganda for the Miami Dolphins. This time period also meant that husbands got gold stars for being the mediocre-ist dopes, while the women, like Molly and Marg, served slay all day, every day. Most importantly, we'll learn if Kim will live or die in Arachnophobia.Dir.

It's podcast time again, and this week Dan sat down with Elliot for a look back at all the cool hacks we've written about. We started off talking about Hackaday Europe, which is coming up in March -- seems unlikely that it's just around the corner, but there it is. There's also good news: the Hack Chat is back, and we started things off with a bang as Eben Upton stopped by to talk all things Pi. Separately, we talked about fault injection attacks, including how to find the hidden cup of  0xC0FFEE in an RP2350. We saw a very cool piece of LED jewelry that does a fluid simulation, a direct conversion radio that's all laid out in front of you, and the scrunchiest mechanical digital clock you'll ever see. We saw blinkenlights for blinkenlights' sake, all the ways to put threads in your prints, and how to ditch to coax and wire up your antennas with Cat 6 cable. Plus, it's an Al Williams twofer in the Can't-Miss Articles, with a look back at life before GPS and how you can tune into digital ham radio, no radio required.

MIRS meets Christopher Smith – the State Bar's former elder law and disability rights section chair – and retired U.P. teacher Dee Lindenberger. They explain how right now, leaving behind a pension to a special needs child can result in them being disqualified from support services (2:58).  Also, MIRS wraps up its interviews with active Michigan Democratic Party chair candidates, sitting down with Detroit-based activist Al Williams (29:12).  Molly Medenblik of the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network explains what her group is hoping to accomplish in Michigan during 2025 (47:50). 

After a bit too much eggnog, Elliot Williams and Al Williams got together to see what Hackaday had been up to over the holiday. Turns out, quite a bit. There was a lot to cover, but the big surprise was the "What's that Sound" competition. Do you know who had the correct answer from the last show? No one! So they guys did the right thing and drew from all the entrants for a coveted Hackaday Podcast T-shirt. Back to the hacks, you'll hear about USB-C and the EU, what to do when the Kickstarter product you had your heart set on doesn't deliver, and a very strange way to hack some power grids wirelessly. If you are interested in physics cameras, modifying off-the-shelf gear, or a fresh approach to color 3D printing, they'll talk about that, too. Finally,  you can find out what Tom Nardi thought of Hackaday in the year past, and if your next ocean voyage will have to stop for a charge.  

Michael Ramirez:Las Vegas Review-Journal On our agenda this week... The best is yet to come ... at least for newly anointed U.S. Ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle. The now-spurned former finance of Donald Trump Jr. is headed halfway around the world compliments of The Don, but only because "Ambassador to Mars" isn't a thing yet. And there's so much more: Gold sneakers, gold coins, leather-bound Bibles, digital junk collectibles, red hats, camo hats, crypto currency, and now cologne and perfume. That's the current potpourri of products being shilled by the president-elect who once claimed he could be more presidential than any of his predecessor … while his current wife sells Christmas ornaments and a ghost-written book, and his son-in-law sells his soul to the Saudis for a tidy $2-billion and his son announces three new licensing deals with the Saudis. The next logical step for Donald Trump: getting his fans to part with their cash: reverse mortgages. Look out Tom Selleck And another first for Time Magazine: A “Person of the Year” story attached to a 2,300-word fact check debunking much of their cover story.The new administration's appointments by the numbers: 13 billionaires 3 family members, including sending Junior's ex-fiance halfway around the world 13 former Fox News on-air employees 15 one-time losing candidates for various elective offices In the world of actually governing — Three announced candidates for chair of the Michigan Democratic Party are meeting with county parties in the run-up to the February 22 state party convention. In contention to succeed Lavora Barnes as MDP chair: MDP Rural Caucus chair Mark Ludwig, MDP activist Al Williams, and former state Senator and Whitmer staffer Curtis Hertel Jr. Legislative Democrats are working overtime to take maximum advantage of their soon-to-be-lost trifecta control of state government Three Michigan natives gave their valedictory speeches on Capitol Hill in the last few days – all three examples of what's right with public service: Debbie Stabenow, Dan Kildee, and Mitt Romney. Jeff Timmer is off this week, with the always lovely Walt Sorg sitting in! =========================== This episode is sponsored in part by EPIC ▪ MRA, a full service survey research firm with expertise in • Public Opinion Surveys • Market Research Studies • Live Telephone Surveys • On-Line and Automated Surveys • Focus Group Research • Bond Proposals - Millage Campaigns • Political Campaigns & Consulting • Ballot Proposals - Issue Advocacy Research • Community - Media Relations • Issue - Image Management • Database Development & List Management Anne Telnaes - Washington Post

In this episode you'll get to hear not one, not two, but three Hackaday Editors! Now that the dust has mostly settled from the 2024 Hackaday Supercon, Al Williams joins Elliot and Tom to compare notes and pick out a few highlights from the event. But before that, the week's discussion will cover the questionable patents holding back a promising feature for desktop 3D printers, a new digital book from NODE, and the surprisingly limited history of welding in space. You'll also hear about the challenge of commercializing free and open source software, the finicky optics of the James Web Space Telescope, and the once exciting prospect of distributing software via pages of printed barcodes.

From it's early days in the 1920's news was an important part of radio. The first newscasts were little more than announcers reading press releases and police reports. In the 1930s and 40s, network newscasts evolved into audio versions of newspaper columns. During the World War Two and into the 1950s there was the arrival of the radio news anchor, who presented reporters on the scene, with commentary confined to the people actually making the news. You're hear this transition develop over decades of radio news coverage. Elmer Davis on CBS Radio in 1939 HV Kaltenborn on NBC Radio in 1940 Walter Winchell in 1941, American Radio's most popular newsman at the time, and was heard on the Blue Network, which later became ABC. Fulton Lewis Jr on the Mutual Radio Network in 1942. Raymond Gram Swing on ABC Radio in 1945 Mutual Newsreel Digest in 1950 Taylor Grant suffers the news anchor's nightmare on ABC in 1953. The legendary Edward R. Murrow on CBS Radio in 1957. Frank Bourgholtzer on NBC Radio in 1961. Charles Osgood before he became famous in 1966 on ABC Radio Bill Maher Jr, father of the famous comedian on Mutual Radio in 1969. Mike Stanley on CBS in 1969. James Limbach on Associated Press Radio in 1977. Al Williams on the Mutual Black Radio Network in 1978. David Leslie on ABC in 1978. Pat Prescott on the National Black Network in 1981. Becky Bailey on Mutual in 1988. Jim Lounsbury on the United Press International radio network in 1989. Sheri Preston on ABC radio in 2004. More at KRobCollection.com

What have you missed on Hackaday this week? Elliot Williams and Al Williams compare notes on their favorites from the week, and you are invited. The guys may have said too much about the Supercon badge this year -- listen in for a few hints about what it will be about. For hacks, you'll hear about scanning tunneling microscopes, power management for small Linux systems, and lots of inertial measurement units. The guys talked about a few impossible hacks for consumer electronics, from hacking a laptop, to custom cell phones. Of course, there are plenty more long-form articles of the week, including a brief history of what can go wrong on a spacewalk and how to get the lead out (of the ground). Don't forget to take a stab at the What's That Sound competition and maybe score a sweet Hackaday Podcast T-shirt. Check out the links over on Hackaday if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

Elliot Williams is back from vacation, and he and Al Williams got together to talk about the best Hackaday posts from the last week. Of course, the Raspberry Pi RP2350 problem generated a bit of discussion. On a lighter note, they saw laser lawn care, rooting WiFi devices, and some very black material made from wood. Need more current-sinking capability from a 555? They talked about that, too, along with a keyboard you use with your feet. The guys had a lot to say about Klipper, why you might want to move your 3D printer to it, and the FCC's stance on ham radio antennas in restricted neighborhoods. Oh, and don't forget to play "What's that Sound?"  

Host: Bill Adams Guest: Al Williams, President of the WV Computer Club Description: With Computer Scams on the rise, especially targeting seniors who may not be as computer literate as they wish, Bill and Al explore how to spot these scams and how to deal with them. These scamers are so good, it is easy to click on what looks like a legitimate website or message only to be instantly pulled into a scam aimed at stealing all your money. BEWARE. Al tells us to stop and think before clicking on anything having to do with your money, the IRS, the government, or your bank. First watch for the unexpected. Watch for poor grammar. Look at email addresses. They use our human nature against us. There are three kinds: relationships, I owe you money, or you owe me money. Often, they ask for gift cards. Or they will pretend they are a technical service, telling you audibly…”your computer is infected, don't turn it off, call this number. Don't call that number and DO turn off your computer at the start button. Also, be wary of Attachments. Don't open if unexpected or even if you are "curious." For more information and help go to Http://www.WVcomputerclub.org which is the club website and there you can find lots of help. Explore it as soon as you can. They are there to HELP. There is a tab SCAMS and there you will find people who can help you with scams you suspect or have gotten caught. And report if you have gotten caught to help others. Watch for the Club's training courses.

Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams reflect on the fact that, as humans, we have--at most--two eyes and no warp drives. While hacking might not be the world's most dangerous hobby, you do get to work with dangerous voltages, temperatures, and frickin' lasers. Light features prominently, as the guys talk about LED data interfaces, and detecting faster-than-light travel. There's also a USB sniffer, abusing hot glue, and some nostalgia topics ranging from CRT graphics to Apollo workstations (which have nothing directly to do with NASA). The can't miss articles this week cover hacking you and how you make the red phone ring in the middle of a nuclear war. Check out the links if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

Get your weekly fix of great hacks with your guides, Elliot Williams and Al Williams. This week, the guys talk about hacking airline WiFi, vanishing cloud services, and hobbies adjacent to hacking, such as general aviation. Things go into the weird and wonderful when the topic turns to cavity filters, driving LEDs with a candle, and thermite. Quick hacks? Everything from vintage automated telescopes to home fusion reactors and ham radio mobile from a bicycle. Then there's the can't miss articles about the Solar Dynamics Observatory and an explainer about flash memory technology. Check out the links over on Hackaday and leave your favorite hack of the week in the comments!

What do capstans, direct conversion receivers, and fracking have in common? They were all topics Hackaday editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams found fascinating this week. If you wonder what makes an electrical ground a ground, or what a theodolite is, you should check it out. Al struck on on the What's That Sound, but [Ferric Bueler] didn't so he scores a highly-coveted Hackaday Podcast T-Shirt. Want one? Tune in next week for your chance. This week, the hacks came fast and furious. Capstans, instead of gears, work well for 3D-printed mechanisms, a PI Pico can directly receive radio signals, and the guys saw a number of teardowns and reverse engineering triumphs. You'll also find solid-state heat pumps, flying wings, spectroscopy, and more. The can't miss articles this week? Learn about theodolites, a surveying feat from ancient Greece, and how fracking works. Head on over to Hackaday for the full links!

What did Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams find interesting on Hackaday this week? Well, honestly, all the posts, but they had to pick some to share with you in the podcast below. There's news about SuperCon 2024, and failing insulin pumps. After a mystery sound, the guys jump into reverbing garden hoses, Z80s, and even ribbon cable repair. Adaptive tech was big this week, with a braille reader for smartphones and an assistive knife handle. The quick hacks ranged from a typewriter that writes on toast to a professional-looking but homemade ham radio transceiver. Check out the links if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

What were some of the best posts on Hackaday last week? Elliot Williams and Al Williams decided there were too many to choose from, but they did take a sampling of the ones that caught their attention. This week's picks were an eclectic mix of everything from metal casting and plasma cutters to radio astronomy and space telescope budgets. In between? Some basic circuit design, 3D printing, games, dogs, and software tools. Sound confusing? It won't be after you listen to this week's podcast.

No need to wonder what stories Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams were reading this week. They'll tell you about them in this week's podcast. The guys revisit the McDonald's ice cream machine issue to start.   This week, DIY voice assistants and home automation took center stage. But you'll also hear about AI chat models implemented as a spreadsheet, an old-school RC controller, and more. How many parts does it take to make a radio? Not a crystal radio, a software-defined one. Less than you might think. Of course, you'll also need an antenna, and you can make one from lawn chair webbing. In the can't miss articles, you'll hear about the problems with the x86 architecture and how they tried to find Martian radio broadcasts in the 1920s. Miss any this week? Check out the links to follow along, and as always, leave you comments!

Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams sat down to compare notes on their favorite Hackaday posts of the week. You can listen in on this week's podcast. The guys talked about the latest Hackaday contest and plans for Hackaday Europe. Plus, there's a what's that sound to try. Your guess can't be worse than Al's, so take a shot. You could win a limited-edition T-shirt. In technical articles, Elliot spent the week reading about brushless motor design, twin-t oscillators, and a truly wondrous hack to reverse map a Nintendo Switch PCB. Al was more nostalgic, looking at the 555 and an old Radio Shack kit renewed. He also talked about a method to use SQL to retrieve information from Web APIs. Quick hacks were a decided mix with everything from homemade potentiometers to waterproof 3D printing. Finally, the guys talked about Hackaday originals. Why don't we teach teens to drive with simulators? And why would you want to run CP/M -- the decades-old operating system -- under Linux?

This week Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams chew the fat about the Haier IOT problem, and all other top Hackaday stories of the week. Want to prove your prowess at C programming? Take a quiz! Or marvel at some hairy display reverse engineering or 3D-printed compressor screws. On the lighter side, there's an immense water rocket. After Al waxes nostalgic about the world of DOS Extenders and extended memory, the guys talk about detective work: First detecting AI-written material, and finally, a great detective story about using science to finally (maybe) crack the infamous DB Cooper hijacking case. Follow along with the links over at Hackaday. Don't forget to tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

This week in the Podcast, Elliot Williams is off at Chaos Communication Congress, hearing tales of incredible reverse engineering that got locomotives back up and running, while Al Williams is thinking over what happened in 2023. There's a lot of “how things work” in this show, from data buoys to sewing machines to the simulated aging of ICs. Whether you're into stacking bricks, stacking Pi Picos, or stacking your 3D prints to make better use of precious bed space, this episode is for you. Enjoy. And as always, check out the links over at Hackaday, and let us know what you think in the comments!  

'Twas the podcast before Christmas, and all through the house, the best hacks of the week are dancing around Elliot and Tom's heads like sugar-plums. Whatever that means. Before settling their brains in for a long winter's nap, they'll talk about the open source software podcast that now calls Hackaday home, the latest firmware developments for Google's Stadia controller, high-definition cat videos from space, and upgrades for the surprisingly old-school battery tech that powers the Toyota Prius. Out on the lawn, expect a clatter about the the state-of-the-art in DIY camera technology, the acoustic properties of hot chocolate, and a storage media from the 1990s that even Al Williams had never heard of. Finally, after tearing open the shutters and throwing up the sash, the episode wraps up with a discussion about wiring techniques that let you leave the soldering iron at home, and the newest chapter in the long history of transferring data via parachute. Miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer sold separately. Check out the links over on Hackaday.

With solder fumes from Supercon badge hacking still in the air, Hackaday's Elliot Williams and Al Williams met to compare notes about the conference talks, badge hacking, and more. Tom Nardi dropped by, too. Did you miss Supercon? It isn't quite the whole experience, but most of the talks are on our YouTube channel, with more coming in the weeks ahead. Check out the live tab for most of the ones up now. You can even watch the badge hacking celebration. Al nailed What's That Sound, as did many other people, including this week's winner. [Jacx] gets a T-shirt, and you get a chance to play again next week. The hacks this week range from a pair of posts pertaining to poop -- multi-color 3D printer poop, that is. We wondered if you could print rainbow filament instead of a purge tower. The Raspberry Pi 5 draws a lot of excess power when in standby. Turns out, thanks to the Internet, the easy fix for that is already in. Other hacks range from EMI test gear to portable antennas with excursions into AI, biomedical sensors, and retrocomputing. In the Can't Miss category, we discussed Maya Posch's post, which could just as easily be titled: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about CAT Cable (But Were Afraid to Ask). Last, but not least, you'll hear about Lewin Day's round up of exotic gyroscope technology, including some very cool laser pictures. Check out the links over at Hackaday if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!  

Doing the will of God, not just learning about the will of God, unleashes the peace of God.

Elliot Williams and Al Williams got together again to discuss the best of Hackaday for a week, and you're invited. This week, the guys were into the Raspberry Pi 5, CNC soldering, signal processing, and plasma cutting. There are dangerous power supplies and a custom 11-bit CPU. Of course, there are a few Halloween projects that would fit in perfectly with the upcoming Halloween contest (the deadline is the end of this month; you still have time). OpenSCAD is about to get a lot faster, and a $20 oscilloscope might not be a toy after all. They wrap up by talking about Tom Nardi's latest hardware conversion of DIP parts to SMD and how TVs were made behind the Iron Curtain. Did you miss a story? Check out the links and/or tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

BMitch and Finlay speak with former Denver Bronco Alfred Williams of Big Al Radio on the KOA Sports Zoo to talk about the Commanders and Broncos matchup this weekend plus Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes.

Name one other podcast where you can hear about heavy 3D-printed drones, DIY semiconductors, and using licorice to block laser beams. Throw in homebrew relays, a better mouse trap, and logic analyzers, and you'll certainly be talking about Elliot Williams and Al Williams on Hackaday Podcast 235. There's also contest news, thermoforming, and something that looks a little like 3D-printed Velcro. Elliot and Al also have their semi-annual argument about Vi vs. Emacs. Spoiler alert: they decided they both suck. Missed any of their picks? Check out the links on Hackaday, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

The 1876 Crew is finally back after a long off-season and is shaking off the rust. Al Williams, Joe Clay aka "J.Cleazy", Roland "Ro" Austin, and the lovely Ms. Shaunetta Hesikell are here to kick off Season 6. The crew discusses the hiring of the new PVAMU President and Athletic Director, Tomikia LeGrande and Anton Goff. They also talk what's new in football, the band, and sit down with the new Alumni Missouri City Chapter President, Brian Cokes.

Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Al Williams don't always agree on the best text editor to use, but they do -- usually -- agree on what makes a great hack. This week, they found plenty of Hackaday posts to discuss, ranging from exotic eavesdropping on keyboards, oscilloscopes, and several posts of interest to anyone who wants to build good-looking prototypes. If you are like mechanics, you'll hear about an escapement-like mechanism and a Hobson's coupler. If you crave more traditional hacks, you can learn more about maximizing battery life and etching PCBs. In addition to a flurry of hacks, Elliot and Al also share their picks for the best original posts from Hackaday's staff. This week, we find out how Arya Voronova documents projects and hear what Tom Nardi thinks of his Beepy -- a ready-made display and Blackberry keyboard waiting for a Raspberry Pi. Did you miss anything? Check out the links.

Summer's in full swing, and this week both Elliot and Dan had to sweat things out to get the podcast recorded. But the hacks were cool -- see what I did there? -- and provided much-needed relief. Join us as we listen in on the world of bats, look at a laser fit for a hackerspace, and learn how to make an array of magnets greater than -- or less than -- the sum of its parts. There'll be flying eggs, keyboards connected to cell phones, and everything good about 80s and 90s cable TV, as well as some of the bad stuff. And you won't want to miss Elliot putting Dan to shame with the super-size Quick Hacks, either, nor should you skip the Can't Miss sweep with a pair of great articles by Al Williams. Check out the show notes on Hackaday for the links if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

This week, Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Al Williams shoot the breeze about all things Hackaday. We start off with some fond remembrances of Don Lancaster, a legendary hardware hacker who passed away last month. There's also news about the Hackaday Prize (the tool competition) and a rant about fast computers and slow software, a topic that drew many comments this week. In the What's That Sound event, Al proves he's more of a Star Trek fan than a videogamer. But there were plenty of correct answers, but only one winner: []. There's always next week, so keep playing! Elliot may be dreaming of cooler weather since he talks about ice sculptures, snow measurements, and a paint that can make things cooler. We don't know what Al is dreaming about, but he is worried about his fuses, and the ins and out of open source licensing. Along the way, you'll hear about personal vehicles, sky cameras, and zapping weeds with extreme solar power. As usual, there is an eclectic mix of other posts. What has the Hackaday crew been up to? Field trips! Hear about Dan Maloney's visit to the SNOTEL network to measure snowfall and a report from Al and Bil Herd's trip to the Vintage Computer Festival Southwest. What to read along? The links are over at Hackaday. Don't forget to tell us what you think in the comments!

Denver radio host & Super Bowl Champion Big Al Williams on the Denver Nuggets

In this week's podcast, non-brothers Elliot Williams and Al Williams talk about our favorite hacks of the week. Elliot's got analog on the brain, courtesy of the ongoing Op Amp Contest, and Al is all about the retrocomputers, from a thrift-store treasure to an old, but still incredibly serviceable, voice synthesizer. Both agree that they love clever uses of mechanical parts and that nobody should fear the FET. Check out the links below if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams is joined this week by newly minted Development Editor (and definitely not brother) Al Williams to bring you the weekly highlights from our little corner of the Internet. Between the rapidly approaching deadline for the Low-Power Challenge to Samsung creating a fake Moon with artificial intelligence, there's plenty in the news to get this episode started. From there, the Williams plural discuss using a webcam for cheap virtual reality thrills, an impressive expansion for the Flipper Zero, and whether or not finding a bug in the Nintendo DSi browser counts as retrocomputing. Stick around to hear about the fascinating work Joshua Vasquez has been doing with DIY light guide plates, and Arya Voronova's deep-dive into PCI-Express. You want links? You got links in the show notes!

Hour 3 - 00:00 - Big Al Williams on His College Teammate Eric Bieniemy 22:06 - Money Talk With Ben White 34:38 - Champions League Draft

Eric Bieniemy's college teammate Big Al Williams on the Commanders new OC

Detroit City Council president pro tem James Tate joins the show to discuss city council's goals in licensing recreational marijuana use as retail sales began for the first time this month. Then, Al Williams, president of "DaCut" recreational and medicinal marijuana dispensary, stops by to discuss his experiences with the start of recreational cannabis sales in the city.

This week, Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Assignments Editor Kristina Panos rendezvoused in yet another secret, throwaway location to rap about the hottest hacks from the previous week. We start off by gushing about the winners of the Cyberdeck Contest, and go wild over the Wildcard round winners from the Hackaday Prize. It's the What's That Sound? results show, and Kristina was ultimately stumped by the sound of the Kansas City Standard, though she should have at least ventured a guess after shooting down both modem and fax machine noises. Then it's on to the hacks, which feature an analog tank-driving simulator from the 1970s, much ado about resin printing, and one cool thing you can do with the serial output from your digital calipers, (assuming you're not a purist). And of course, stay tuned for the Can't-Miss Article discussion, because we both picked one of resident philosopher Al Williams' pieces. You can check out all the links in the show notes right here, on the Internet!

Retired Old Men Eating Out Somewhere (ROMEOS). Dennis Scott and Al Williams share about the work of the ROMEOS group at Grand Parkway. They discuss the group's origin and current work. You will hear how this gathering is as much about fellowship and true connection as it is about helping widows and the needy.  It is one of the most consistent ways this church demonstrates the core value of blessing. 

Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Managing Editor Tom Nardi are here to bring you the best stories and hacks from the previous week (and maybe a little older). Things kick off with news that the Early Bird tickets for the 2022 Hackaday Supercon tickets sold out in only two hours -- a good sign that the community is just as excited as we are about the November event. But don't worry, regular admission tickets are now available for those who couldn't grab one out of the first batch. This week there's plenty of vehicular hacks to talk about, from John Deere tractors running DOOM to a particularly troublesome vulnerability found in many key fobs. We'll also lament about the state of 3D CAD file formats, marvel at some retro-futuristic photography equipment, and look at the latest in home PCB production techniques. Wrapping things up there's a whole lot of cyberdeck talk, and a trip down silicon memory lane courtesy of Al Williams. Check out the links in the show notes!
