I have not built anything electronic since mid-1990’s, then we were a group of kids renting a basement to have somewhere to hang out and hack stuff. I have been toying with a though for a while, to build a sort of a game for my son. I saw something somewhere where someone had built
What if: integration engine
Just googled some scripting languages that snap in with C or C++, ChaiScript and Lua. Had a discussion today with a few colleagues at the office about the cost of running the various integration engines we provide support on for our customers, they all cost a shitload of money to purchase or licence – no
Hur jag blev tvungen att resa 160km för att transportera döda träd..
Det började med ett telefonsamtal till min gamla vårdcentral, för att få dem att släppa och överföra mina journaler till min nya vårdcentral. Under samtalet står det klart att jag måste infinna mig fysiskt på den gamla vårdcentralen för att legitimera mig, lämna in en “beställning”, för att kunna få ut mina journaler på papper.
Orange Pi One
Got this little board a few weeks ago, for the cheaps. From what I have read it is a capable computer in a very small form factor. I don’t know what to do with it just yet, need to look at the pin-out diagram to see what I have to play with and what is
Wifi Pineapple Mark II
I connected my Wifi Pineapple Mark II to the network and googled some for password recovery as I had not been able to log into the box, I bought it second hand and wanted to explore, but there was no documentation available as much of the documentation had been updated to reflect modern versions of
Firmware upgrading an old Linksys WRT54GL
I have a pretty simple network at home and internet services are provided through a ethernet TP/RJ-45 jack in the hallway where no computers are located we put the blue boxes in a cupboard. The office, a few meters away is connected over wifi via an extender which also converts to wired ethernet. This morning
The Nintendo NES Classic Edition
I happened to see a tweet floating by, a friend asked if anyone was interested in buying her Nintendo NES Classic Edition, I thought for a second or two .. I was interested! Requested approval from wife and got it! Since I had never owned a NES console, just played at friends places and thought

Improbinator – My first ESPduino project
I committed my first ESPduino project to Github the other day, ESPduino – Improbinator. ESPduino – Improbinator – Flood of faked 802.11 Probe Request Frames Background: Living in a town with about 20 wifi-probes mounted on walls in the city center, which collects 802.11 Probe Request frames to measure and map visitor flows through the
ESPduino
Yup, got myself an ESPduino which is a combination of an Arduino-compatible with an ESP8266 on-board. This will be the platform for my little project, where I aim to run interference to disrupt the WiFi-based visitor-counting system the local town has installed. As preparation I’ve been walking around town, trying to identify and photograph the
Makerspace Västerås
Yesterday I did something I’ve been thinking about a lot the last couple of months, I started the Facebook group Makerspace Västerås to have a discussion platform for the possible creation of an actual makerspace in Västerås. Now, some 30 hours later, there is about 35 members and we have discussions about the vision, I
The move, in hindsight
Today it is a year since we packed up our home in boxes, shipped them off to storage and left for a two month journey towards our destination. We have landed, unpacked, furnished and decorated our new home, in another city. Our way here was not a walk in the park, it was uphill struggle
To buy a book
I went looking for a book I read thousands of years ago, Clifford Stoll’s The Cuckoo’s Egg. Found it on printed media, no problem. But I mostly listen to books now a days, so I went looking for the audio book, because it exists… on tape. The price for used tape is about $40. That
Telia – not so netneutral
I first received an SMS telling me that Telia now provides free surf on social media, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Whatsapp, Kik and so on, sounds good at first .. but this is how they want you to think, “what a great deal, now my measly 2G surf plan will last longer”. This is where you
