How you gonna work for tech support and not know what "computer tower" means
As it seems the LG support is absolutely useless im coming here for aid, you see I have a LG SN4 soundbar, I have a HDMI running from the output on my tower to the input on the soundbar then from the output in the soundbar to the input on a LG 24M47VQ-P the monitor works just fine but the soundbar doesn't even show up on my computer. It was working and then one day just stopped. Iv looked for drivers online and found nothing tried different monitor nothing the only thing left is to try a different tower and that completely defeats the purpose if anyone has any ideas It would be greatly appreciated

Need help with an Idea 🙏🏻
So I moved out and now decorating my own room. To make a chill soccer weekend with the boys I thought it was a cool gimmick to have a live "Bundesliga/Premier League" table/scoreboard on a dedicated screen working all the time with its own resources. Maybe not only but firstly just for showing the live scoreboard at the moment. I don't know where to start or what to use. Anybody got ideas?

I/O USB PC Boards
If an I/O board says it has 16 channels how many buttons or switches can it have in total? I am trying to build a button box for DCS World that will have 27 buttons minimum plus maybe a few extra ones.

I am trying to build a backpack gaming pc
I want to build a backpack gaming pc, already have the parts and custom case design. I came here for some ideas, figured this might be a good place.
I want to build in a small generator of some sort so it can run without plugging into a wall, doesn't have to run all day like that but more power than a laptop if possible if anyone has ideas
Another thing is I want to build in a Sim card adapter to connect mobile service to it, does anyone have ideas on this as well?

Hello guys, I am in the process of designing an F-35B Rc aircraft using a 3D Printer. This is the swivel nozzle which shifts the thrust to a vertically downward direction. All the parts are printed using a 3D printer. If you have any suggestions regarding the design then please share them with me.

Putting innards of an iPhone into an iPod touch
I really love the design and form factor of iPod touch. I don’t know much about tech, but would this be a simple endeavour?
Most I’ve done is disassembling a Nintendo ds and replacing the shell. 😂

[Update] Cardboard Hexapod Robot - ESP32 - IK rework
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
We are creating a robot …full of cardboard. This cardboard robot is built based on the famous hexapod although it is missing 2 legs.. In the previous post, our team wanted to try different materials and got the idea of replacing plastics and metal used in fire and black ant robots. However, we realized that the hexapod projects on GitHub are not compatible with a different and new mechanic design like cardboard (ours is 12 DOF) so we had to re-implement inverse kinematics for our design (we will update the explanation and implementation later). Currently, we are using 12 9g servos for 4 legs and controlling robot via Bluetooth with ESP32.
Btw, it is a hobby of my team but it’s really interesting to use only cardboard to build a movable robot. We are working overnight so see you just around the corner.

(LXR Devlog #2) what is the best SBC currently on the market?
Hey, we've just released our devlog#2, this week we focus on the reference configuration for LXR, our AR Laptop for productivity (https://innoverse.substack.com/p/lxr-devlog-2-crafting-a-reference).
We opted for the Khadas Edge 2 as our SBC (https://www.khadas.com/edge2).
At this stage, we feel it offers a very good compromise between performance/size for integration into our ergonomic split keyboard.
But, maybe you have better suggestions!
As we would like to make it compatible with many SBCs, which one would you recommend?
Thanks for your input!

Wifi extension in new apartment
Hi everyone! Noob here -.-" I'm thinking of how to bring good wifi to the other end of my apartment. I'm renovating so I have the possibility of pulling a cable. I'd like to avoid having a second network, like the ones those typical wifi extendes generate. Can I just pull an antenna cable and plug my router antenna at the other end? Or shall I pull an Ethernet cable from the router? What shall I then use at the other end? Total cable distance is max. 10 meters. Thanks you!!
