It's a i think 5man dev team and they've poured their souls into it, I think they deserve the money

King just released Solitaire, so I guess it's not exclusive anymore

This is how I felt when Bambulab started giving all creators printers.

Thank you! I'll check it out

Thank you, I'll give it a try.

Because most websites are not English and every single time I want to translate a site, I have to use a drop down list to select English as the language to translate to.

I can't cope with the shitty translate on Firefox mobile, I live in a non English country and it's driving me insane

Thabk you for the kind words and taking time to respond.

I've put a lot of effort into making friends over the last 11 years, I had a good community and a hobby that got me out and about with people all the time, unfortunately during the pandemic I moved to one of the most socially isolating countries there is, it's taken me 4 and a half years to make new friends but I have a bunch of friends again, but it just doesn't seem like it's enough, it never is. Even back home, with all I had going for me, I spent most of my time alone and felt this way.

The only thing I can think of is that they distract me from the emptiness, when they're there, the emptiness is subdued for a while.

I've been doing tons of introspection on why I feel this way and I don't know. I have BPD, which makes things difficult. I know that on a Saturday morning, if I haven't got plans with someone, I wake up feeling like there's no point in even waking up, my existence serves no purpose besides being there for my mom. I've lost interest in my hobbies because of a lifetime of never being able to afford what I need to complete anything, and anxiety and fear of failure has creeped into everything. I don't even play games anymore unless it's with someone.

Being alone feels terrifying and so so empty.

I guess they're just going to end up being really good but heavily overpriced like the rest of the FormLabs products.

 

So I've worked in IT for around 18 years now and in that time I've worked for 2 gaming companies, I started my most recent a year ago, but I'm wondering if I should just jump ship for the tech industry again, I'm now waiting for the layoffs in our business unit. I'm an immigrant living on a work permit and losing my job will mean losing the life I've made for myself over the last 4 years, and that terrifies me.

I used to love the company I work for but now I'm wondering if it's worth it anymore.

 

Hi,

I'm looking for some help in a field that is super technical and I don't fully understand.

I'm planning on using a bunch of these seeed studio Esp modules for some home automation projects, especially because they have a lipo battery charger making it great for portable stuff.

The thing is the the ESP32s have U.FL SMD antenna connectors. Most of the antennas that you can buy with U.FL connections while are reasonably small, come with 50-150mm leads, which sort of makes the small size of the module a little less valid.

What I'd like to do is get a female U.FL SMD connector and make a small daugherboard with an 2.4GHz SMD antenna on it, for instance a Janson 2450AT42B100 or a Molex 479480001.

They go over the circuit board requirements quite thoroughly so I don't think designing it will be too difficult, but what I don't know is, they say that you need impedance matching on the circuit, and I see that there appears to be something that looks like it on the ESP circuit diagram, but I'm not actually sure if it is or not:

You can see it in the middle near the bottom of the diagram here: Seeeduino-XIAO-ESP32C3-SCH

So my questions are:

1: Is this a dumb idea, having a direct plug-on SMD antenna?

2: Is that an impedance matchning circuit between LNA_IN on the ESP chip and U.FL-R-SMT-1?

3: If I can't get a female U.FL SMD connector, would using one with a lead and shortening it to make the daughterboard able to be much closer to the connector affect anything? Do I need to ensure that the lead length matches the wavelength at all?

Edit: Found this SMD female U.FL, so they do exist.
