@jplock Gazelle "Midnight" omafiets with a Two-O "Transporter" crate.

@ranjit versatile and includes a cupholder

My new bike is quite a challenge to lift into the overhead racks at Amsterdam Centraal.

@ranjit One hour is almost one microcentury. Perhaps it is time for another calendrical reform.

Flo's Appetizing might be the only pumpernickel bagels in all of Amsterdam. Despite the advanced bread technology of the Netherlands, they don't do bagels. One of the few things I miss from New York.

Watch that first step!

@billiegrace seeing train videos in person is so much fun, too!

@phooky @grantcuster have you tried the shiny records?

Programming like it's 1979: just wrote 16-bit real mode x86 machine code by hand-assembling the opcodes.

@cypnk If you can add an encoder for closed loop control, this allows the power to be ramped up as needed. The "Mechaduino" has a neat Hall Effect encoder (AD5047D) combined with a stepper driver that fits on the back of a NEMA-17 motor.

@cypnk The big problem with steppers in this sort of application is that they don't have much holding power. The weight of the arm and any payload will require a very high current to prevent skips, which causes the motors to become really hot.

@cypnk the first three axes of the puma 6dof arm might be easy to redesign, although the last three in the wrist would be a challenge.

@holly also no

@yuki_is_bored it's a sofa being lowered out the third floor window.

One of the overhead hazards of living in Amsterdam.

Word of the day

So glad the days are getting longer again.
