Nintendo's financial results are actually pretty interesting

Nintendo's fiscal year just ended on March 31, and their annual results report has some goodies in there I thought were worth shouting out. First up, the company made a lot less money than in the previous year, with 30% lower revenue and 46% lower profits. As someone

This CanSat doubles as a drone to slow descents

A CanSat is a small sensor payload, about the size of a soda can, designed to be launched on a model rocket to relatively low altitudes of around 1km. But while that isn’t anywhere close to leaving the atmosphere, it is very high and CanSats need a way to get back to the ground safely. […] The post This CanSat doubles as a drone to slow descents appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Home is where the home server is

I moved recently, and so did my home server. You might have noticed it due to the downtime. This time I have built a dedicated shelf for it, which allows for more flexibility and room for additional expensive ideas. The internet connection is a fiber line, which is fantastic for a place that’s generally considered to be in the countryside. I had to hire a guy at the last place in Tallinn (capital of Estonia) to pull a fiber line from the basement to the apartment, with my own money, so I’m very happy that I don’t have to do it here. And yes, the ThinkPad T430 is still a solid home server. I had an issue with my battery calibration script resulting in the machine being turned off, but I fixed it by disabling it, at the cost of the battery probably dying soon. Seems like a tlp and/or Linux kernel issue that has surfaced recently, as it also happened on a different ThinkPad laptop when I last tried it. I can’t really remove the battery, because the “power on with AC attach” setting only works when the battery is connected and charged. The server/wardrobe/closet room is slightly chillier compared to the rest of the environment, meaning that the temperatures are also slightly lower. I also have an option to do some crazy ventilation experiments in the winter, but that will have to wait for a bit, mainly because it’s spring. I’m genuinely surprised that the Wi-Fi 5 signal is coming through the closet quite adequately, with the whole apartment being covered with at least 50 Mbit/s speeds, and over 300 Mbit/s when near the closet, which is about the maximum speed that I can achieve from the access point in ideal conditions.

Optimize maintenance with the Arduino Rileva ME Opta Bundle

When your machines run smoothly, your business can go far. That’s why condition monitoring – once a “nice to have” – is quickly becoming a must in maintenance strategies across industrial settings. But most dedicated systems can be complex to set up or difficult to scale. To make things easier, we’re introducing the Arduino Rileva ME Opta […] The post Optimize maintenance with the Arduino Rileva ME Opta Bundle appeared first on Arduino Blog.
