@tony this looks like someone made a bomb diffusal game

@foone I had exactly this kit, and I still have the original manual for it somewhere. it's a beauty.

@gsuberland @foone +1 for both having this exact kit, and for wanting an Arduino (or Pi Pico) version.

@foone A few years ago I searched for one of these - I wanted one that connected to GPIO but couldn’t find anything.

@foone There's one with a solderless breadboard that works perfectly with a Teensy. I own one. It is a thing of beauty.

@coregaze ooh, that sounds neat. I love the teensy! Do you have a link to that?

@foone I am trying to attach a photo of the one I have, but mstdn.social is not cooperating right now. It's a "Radio Shack Electronics Learning Lab 28-280". I would have hoped that Elenco or someone might have picked it up but it doesn't look like they did.

@coregaze ahh, very cool. Maybe I'll have to find one of those on ebay

@foone Frustratingly I even took a photo of it specially. @stux has had a lot of new users lately, I guess the ingest queue is clogged again.

@coregaze @foone what seems to be the issue?

(test image)

coregaze, 3 months ago

@stux @foone I hit the "attach image" thing, choose the file, it slowly uploads and then... nothing happens. Or I get "500 Error processing thumbnail for uploaded media"

@coregaze
Does this happen with one specific image? Perhaps a large resolution one?
@foone

@stux @foone Just a snap taken from my Pixel 6, which I've never had problems uploading from before. Here, let me try a downsampled version.

@stux @foone Well, that seemed to work. I wonder why it didn't work with the photo straight off the phone- it usually works fine.

stux, 3 months ago

@coregaze hmm that is weird indeed 🤔
