#222Hey guys! We're engineers/designers from France, and we've built the Ultimate DIY Battery that you can repair and refill! - Ride Sustainably with the World's First Repairable Battery - Refillable in 5 minutes (just buy $150 worth of new cells every 3 years or so, when they're depleted) - Be Worry-Free thanks to the Fireproof Casing! There's been waaaaaay too many lithium fires! It's launching as an IndieGogo in one w…
btw do you plan to leverage your pcb connector plates for other kinds of batteries ?
Yes! More models coming soon, also scooters, mopeds, powertools!

#223I’ve been making a survival-horror Playdate game called Plight of the Wizard[0]. You’re a wizard that fights off an endless horde of enemies by using the crank to rotate around and cast spells quickly. It’s my first game, and it’s been a lot of fun building out the mechanics. It’s in a good state, so I’m figuring out if it needs anything else.

#224Building some prototypes of games with Godot. Mostly enjoying it. A few gripes with the GDScript language though. Might switch back to C#. https://godotengine.org/
How did you settle on godot?

#225I started "grilling" on top of "oven salt" in my AEG/Electrolix steam oven. I am working remote next to a mediterranean market and I put large shrimps and pilgrim mussels on the salt for 8 minutes at 225c. Also tested vegetables, fish and beef. I brush the fish with smoked olive oil from a small factory.

#226I‘m building https://sql-workbench.com in my spare time. It‘s a SQL Workbench in the browser, based on DuckDB WASM. You can query remote and local datasources, such as CSV, JSON or Parquet files. You can also visualize the results, and share the queries via URL. Let me know what you think!
have a button for run query - people look for something to click, and for copy, reset, add to tooltip and the location should not change for button and text should not misplace things on page.

#228I'm building a greenhouse. The frame is done, and I've got plastic and a door on it. Next, I'd like to build boxes to hold soil and allow for easy watering.
Sounds cool. Care to share the design?

#229Currently in the middle of moving, but very recently added full phrase search to marginalia search. And paged search results too.

#230I recently noticed how much Apple Maps has improved in recent years so I decided to throw together a little app using it. In addition, I set out with a goal of using tools, frameworks and a hosting provider I had little to no experience with. I learnt a ton and developed opinions across a few areas so I see it as a success.
I don’t expect to add much more to the app and I’ll probably kill it in a few months as it’ll likely cost me more to run it.
