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.
With the 2024 Hackaday Supercon looming large on the horizon, Editors Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi start this episode off by talking about this year's badge and its focus on modular add-ons. From there they'll go over the results of a particularly challenging installment of What's that Sound?, discuss a promising DIY lathe that utilizes 3D printed parts filled with concrete, and ponder what the implosion of Redbox means for all of their disc-dispensing machines that are still out in the wild. You'll also hear about custom macropads, lifting SMD pins, and how one hacker is making music with vintage electronics learning kits. Finally, they'll reassure listeners that the shifting geopolitical landscape probably won't mean the end of Hackaday.io anytime soon, and how some strategically placed pin headers can completely change how you approach designing your own PCBs. Check out the links over at Hackaday, and tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!
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!
This week on the Podcast, Hackaday's Elliot Williams and Kristina Panos joined forces to bring you the latest news, mystery sound, and of course, a big bunch of hacks from the previous week. First up in the news: we've announced the 2024 Tiny Games Contest winners! We asked you to show us your best tiny game, whether that means tiny hardware, tiny code, or a tiny BOM, and you did so in spades. Congratulations to all the winners and Honorable Mentions, and thanks to DigiKey, Supplyframe, and all who entered! We also announced the first round of Supercon speakers, so if you haven't gotten your ticket yet, now's the second best time. But wait, there's more! We're already a few weeks into the next contest, where we want you to show us your best Simple Supercon Add-On. We love to see the add-ons people make for the badge every year, so this time around we're really embracing the standard. The best SAOs will get a production run and they'll be in the swag bag at Hackaday Europe 2025. Then it's on to What's That Sound, which completely stumped Kristina once again. Can you get it? Can you figure it out? Can you guess what's making that sound? If you can, and your number comes up, you get a special Hackaday Podcast t-shirt. Now it's on to the hacks, beginning with non-planar ironing for smooth prints, and a really neat business card that also plays tiny games. Then we'll discuss USB modems, cool casts for broken wrists, and archiving data on paper. Finally, we ask two big questions -- where do you connect the shield, and what's the Next Big Thing gonna be? Inquiring minds want to know. 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!

Join us for Project Geekology's 88th episode as we unpack the 2017 film that redefined the X-Men franchise, starring Hugh Jackman in his final(not really) bow as Wolverine. We start off with Anthony's recent gaming escapades, including his surprisingly balanced take on the Suicide Squad game, despite its mixed reviews.

In this episode, Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi kick things off with a reminder about the impending deadline for Supercon talk and workshop proposals. From there discussion moves on to the absolutely incredible tale of two brothers who solved a pair of missing person cases with their homebrew underwater vehicle, false data sneaking into OctoPrint's usage statics, and an organic input device that could give the classic mouse a run for its money. You'll also hear about cheap radar modules, open source Xbox mod chips, and lawnmowers from the grocery store. The episode wraps up with a look at the enduring mystique of perpetual motion devices, and the story of a legendary ship that might soon end up being turned into paper clips.

This week on the Podcast, it's Kristina's turn to ramble on alongside Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams. First up in the news: Paul Allen's Living Computers Museum + Labs is being liquidated at auction after just 12 years of being open to the public. In Hackaday news, the 2024 Business Card Challenge ends next Tuesday, July 2nd, so this is your weekend to shine! Also, you've got about two weeks to get your talk proposals in for this year's Supercon. (Can you believe it's only four months away?) Then it's on to What's That Sound, at which Kristina made a couple of close-but-no-cigar guesses. Can you get it? Can you figure it out? Can you guess what's making that sound? If you can, and your number comes up, you get a special Hackaday Podcast t-shirt. Then it's on to the hacks, beginning with a $3 smartwatch that can run Python, and a completely DIY analog tape recording solution. We'll talk about making your wireless keyboard truly low power, all the steps you can take to produce perfect PCBs at home, and AI in a font. Finally, we talk about the dangers of a curious childhood, and talk about a dotcom hardware solution that could have gone far, given the right business model. Check out the links and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!
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.

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.

This week, Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Kristina Panos met up from their separate but equally pin drop-quiet offices to discuss the best hacks of the previous week. Well, we liked these one, anyway. First up in the news, it's finally time for Supercon! So we'll see you there? If not, be sure to check out the talks as we live-stream them on our YouTube channel! Don't forget -- this is your last weekend to enter the 2023 Halloween Hackfest contest, which runs until 9 AM PDT on October 31st. Arduino are joining the fun this year and are offering some spooky treats in addition to the $150 DigiKey gift cards for the top three entrants. It's time for a new What's That Sound, and Kristina was able to stump Elliot with this one. She'll have to think of some more weirdo sounds, it seems. Then it's on to the hacks, beginning with an insanely complex mechanical central air data computer super-teardown from [Ken Shirriff]. We also learned that you can 3D-print springs and things by using a rod as your bed, and we learned whole lot about rolling your own electrolytic capacitors from someone who got to visit a factory. From there we take a look at a Commodore Datassette drive that sings barbershop, customizing printf, and a really cool dress made of Polymer-dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) panels. Finally we talk about racing the beam when it comes to game graphics, and say goodbye to Kristina's series on USPS technology.

Then it's on to the hacks, where we check out a cool RFID emulator e-paper badge, discuss whether a certain type of record player is better off as a cyberdeck, and look through the eye of a Gameboy-style camera for the Playdate console. From there we take a look at gutting and rooting voice assistants, a solenoid keyboard, and a beautifully rebuilt VR headset that now does AR as well. Finally we talk autonomous solar boats, lambast ChatGPT as the worst summer intern ever, and ponder what makes a thing count as Linux or not.

Stick around for my conversation with him and learn more about how he went from soldering light-up bow ties to open-source pick-and-place machines.Tom is here for his first Supercon 6 and is the winner of the super mound soldering challenge! Learn more about what was going on in his head during the competition and how adrenalin kicked in just when he needed it.Test your surface mount soldering skills out, starting with a 1206 package and work your way down into an oblivion of frustration.https://www.tindie.com/products/makersbox/smd-challenge/

This week Dave discusses wanting to buy a Pick and Place and Chris doesn't try to talk him out of it. Also low cost RISC V components, Supercon happenings, more on heat pumps, books about the grid, and more!
This week, Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Managing Editor Tom Nardi are still flying high on their post-Supercon buzz (and are a bit jet lagged) this week. We'll start with some of the highlights from our long-awaited Pasadena meetup, and talk a bit about the winner of this year's Hackaday Prize. Talk will then shift over to shaved down NES chips, radioactive Dungeons and Dragons gameplay, an impressive 3D printed telescope being developed by the community, and the end of the Slingbox. Stick around for a double dose of Dan Maloney, as we go over his twin treatises on dosimetry and the search for extraterrestrial life. Check out the links if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!
This week Hackaday Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Managing Editor Tom Nardi will discuss the return of the East Coast RepRap Festival, the scientific application of slices of baloney, and the state of the art in homebrew e-readers. The discussion weaves its way through various reimaginings of the seven (or more) segment display, an impressive illuminated headboard that comes with its own science-fiction film, and the surprising difficulty of getting a blinking LED to actually look like a flame. Stick around to the end to find out why iPhones are freaking out on amusement park rides, and to hear all the details about this year's Supercon badge. Check out all the links and join the discussion over on Hackaday!
Hackaday Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams took time out from Supercon planning to join Staff Writer Dan Maloney for a look through the hacking week that was. We always try to keep things light, but it's hard sometimes, especially when we have to talk about wars past and present and the ordnance they leave behind. It's also not a lot of fun to talk about a continent-wide radio outage thanks to our angry Sun, nor is learning that a wafer-thin card skimmer could be lurking in your ATM machine. But then again, we did manage to have some fun by weighing cats to make sure they're properly fed, and making music by pegging VU meters. We also saw how to use PCBs to make a beautiful yet functional circuit sculpture, clean up indoor air on a budget, and move microns with hardware store parts. And we also got to celebrate a ray of international hope by looking back on the year that taught us much of what we know about the Earth. Check out all the links (and the hoopla) in the show notes!

Hackaday Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Managing Editor Tom Nardi start this week's podcast off with an announcement the community has been waiting years for: the return of the Hackaday Supercon! While there's still some logistical details to hammer out, we're all extremely excited to return to a live con and can't wait to share more as we get closer to November. Of course you can't have Supercon without the Hackaday Prize, which just so happens to be wrapping up its Hack it Back challenge this weekend. In other news, we'll talk about the developing situation regarding the GPLv3 firmware running on Ortur's laser engravers (don't worry, it's good news for a change), and a particularly impressive fix that kept a high-end industrial 3D printer out of the scrapheap. We'll also fawn over a pair of fantastically documented projects, learn about the fascinating origins of the lowly fire hydrant, and speculate wildly about the tidal wave of dead solar panels looming menacingly in the distance. Check out the show notes!

This week: cosplayers, artists, and more! We share all of the interviews we got a few weeks ago at Louisville Supercon. We talked to Kaybear Cosplay, Alex Cosplays, Daberry Best Cosplays, Bindi Smalls, Morgan Le Foy, David Wong, John Marks, and the 501st Legion. It was awesome to get to talk to all these great cosplayers, artists, and prop builders and learn a little about their passion. If you didn't get the chance to meet them or didn't make it to Supercon, here's your chance to check it out!
What a blast last weekend at the first Louisville Supercon! We tell you all about it and how it exceeded our expecatations. We talk about what went on, who was there, what we liked most and what we didn't like. Afterwards we touch on the latest video game controversy that is the Fallout 76 special edition bag. That spurs a massive discussion about indie games versus AAA titles... and Chris and Cory are quite divided on the issue. We talk Shovelnight, PUBG, Fortnite, Mario, and much more. We hope you guys enjoy!
Welcome back guys! The new Fantastic Beasts movie is out and we went to see it. What did we think of the Crimes of Grindalwald? Chris has finally jumped shipped to team Android and his main reason... Hearthstone! We discuss what he likes so much about the game and we compare it to Magic: The Gathering, which we also play. Plus, should we support companies like Blizzard and EA by playing their games? On the topic of games, almost all of them these days use random number generation and we talk a bit about it. Hearthstone, Diablo, FPS, MMOs... all use RNG! Why is it so popular of a system? Do we like it? How does it impact the games? And if RNG doesn't add enough flavor to the game, then just add some flavor yourself and do some speed or challenge runs! Have we done any? Why or why not? If you glitch through a game, should it count as a speed run? Find out what we think. And we can't forget, Louisville Supercon is this weekend. We'll be there all weekend and we hope to see you all there! Plus we give you some details on the toy drive we are helping host next weekend at Recbar. We hope to see you there, too! Thanks for listening.
This week we are joined by Ryan Gastinger, founder of Ohio River Valley Cosplayers (ORCs)! Terrible news struck the nerd community this week with the passing of Stan Lee. We take some time and discuss Stan's legacy and all the great things he did. Thank you Stan, we'll surely miss you. Then we touch on Disney's new streaming service and some of the content coming to it. We get to know Ryan a bit and discuss his favorite fandoms and nerd interests: Star Wars, Final Fantasy, Warcraft, Mortal Kombat, and more. We talk about his multiple cosplays, how he learned, and about the origins and purpose of ORCs. Supercon is coming up fast and we talked with Ryan about the awesome thing that ORCs will be doing at the convention including 7 different panels as well as a cosplay ER booth to help any cosplayers get fixed up in the case of a costume emergency. We had a blast talking with Ryan, learning about ORCs and cosplay, and getting hyped for Supercon. Don't miss it!
This week we are joined by Mason Berry of Card N All Gaming! First off, we had to talk about the disaster that was Blizzcon. What in the hell was Blizzard thinking with the announcement of Diablo: Immortal? We talk a bit about mobile games, grinding in MMOs, and Chris' love for Final Fantasy. We talk about Mason's part in founding Card N All and his interests in Pokemon cards. We touch on video games, N64, Wii, Playstation 2 more. Of course we delve into the giant role that Card N All will have at Louisville Supercon! It's pretty exciting and there's a lot to look forward to: a retro gaming area where you can play your favorite classics for free, tons of video game tournaments and contests, demoing Warhammer and board games, and more. This episode is packed full of nerdy goodness, don't miss it!
A Nerd Like Me founder Aaron McGahee joins us this episode! We talk about what he's been up to and some of the things he's been working on for the group. Mainly: Louisville Supercon. We talk about what A Nerd Like Me's role will be at the convention, including our volunteer force. We also talk about other conventions, seeing celebrities, and why we're excited to have a big con in our hometown. In the wake of Halloween and because we're gearing up for Supercon, we touch on cosplay. How can we not? Should you buy or make your cosplay? What's better? Why does Aaron enjoy his cosplaying? What is he working on? We discuss all of that! We then switch into a talk about how much the stars of the nerd world, professional streamers and cosplayers, make doing their thing. And, to say the least, it's pretty mind blowing! We wrap up with what we have coming up and what you can look forward to from the podcast and the group. Thanks for listening guys!
