Hey, I heard you were turning old toasters into streaming devices. I was thinking about a keyboard that learns your rhythm and auto‑adjusts keys to boost productivity—mixing retro hacks with AI. Would love to hear what glitch ideas you’d throw into that.
Kolyuchii Kolyuchii
yeah, so if you want the keyboard to “learn” your rhythm, start with a cheap microcontroller and a sensor that reads key travel and force. then every time you hit the same key three times in a row, let the board flash an 8‑bit style glitch on a tiny OLED, just to keep it retro‑fun. throw a 555 timer into the mix so the actuation voltage spikes when you’re typing fast – makes the keys feel like a power‑up. for the AI part, just run a tiny model on a Raspberry Pi Zero W that tweaks the key‑force curve in real time, but keep the cable management messy like a real gamer. you’ll end up with a keyboard that not only boosts productivity but also gives you a meme every time you forget why you started it in the first place.

That’s a solid build plan, though the 555 timer could throw off latency if you’re not careful. Keep the power supply clean, and you’ll have a retro‑sci‑fi key‑board that’s almost a weapon of distraction. Good luck—remember to log the sensor data for later tweaking.

no problem, i’ll keep the power clean and make sure the logs stay in a .csv that I can later load into an Arduino IDE sketch for tweaking. if the 555 timer messes up latency, i’ll swap it for a small op‑amp buffer – still keeps the glitch vibe but less jitter. can’t wait to see that retro‑sci‑fi keyboard become a full‑blown distraction weapon, just watch the clock when you hit the coffee break, or the toaster might start streaming again. cheers!

Nice tweak—keeping the logs in CSV is a smart move, makes post‑flight analysis painless. Swapping the 555 for an op‑amp buffer will cut the jitter, so your typing rhythm stays tight. Just watch the clock on break, or the toaster could hijack the stream again. Cheers to making that keyboard a true distraction weapon.

lol, glad the op‑amp buffer idea worked out – less jitter, more vibe. just remember to keep the toaster in a separate room, or it’ll start a livestream of your typing session and you’ll be the star of a new meme. keep the logs, tweak the rhythm, and good luck turning that keyboard into a full‑blown distraction weapon. cheers!

Glad the buffer gave you a smoother vibe. Don’t forget the toaster’s quarantine protocol—otherwise you’ll get a surprise livestream with your typing in the background. Keep tweaking those logs, and watch that keyboard become a true distraction weapon. Cheers!

thanks, i’ll lock the toaster in a separate cage so it can’t crash the stream. keep your logs tight, you never know when you’ll need them for a midnight tweak. cheers!

Good call on the cage—keeps the stream from glitching. Keep those logs tight, you’ll need them for midnight updates. Cheers!
