@ThePythonShow @driscollis @AlSweigart Fired it up this morning and noticed that audio seems to be out of sync. Hopefully it’s fixable!

@jgreen1024 If they pop up for me I’ll get you one. I’m too much a noob for invites so far 😂

@_CRV I need a Bluesky invite, and then maybe I'll use it. Mastodon seemed lame - couldn't figure out how the damn thing works.

Ok, I’m going to give something a try to finally get myself off this platform. I’m going to unfollow folks where I have an alternate stream from them on mastodon and I guess now blue sky. So friends if you see me unfollow you, this is why.

Hopefully this will help give perspective to come back and say either “there is little value to staying here for the X number of people I follow” *or* “there is value from some sources that is not reproducible”

@cponeill Sure, why not, this place is not so great anymore. Thanks!

@_CRV It’s like being online. Want an invite?

I have the Bluesky invites.

This is tonight! In Chicago! Books and friends and a hopeful future!

@Cannibal Was it because…

Found this near my desk at work and i was really disappointed that there weren't dinosaur embryos in it.

📣 Attn: Chicago-area college students! 🎓 I’m giving away 1 VIP ticket to @thotcon, May 19-20! 🎉 Don't miss this opp to attend one of the best hacking confs in the world. DM for entry into giveaway, must be able to prove current enrollment. #thotcon #cybersecurity #hacker

@philtelco That is fantastic, I really appreciate you diagramming all that out. I’ll also join your discord soonish so that maybe it’s easier to have these convos 😁

@_CRV If you need to buzz pins yourself, I also have these pin outs. The bell coinless keypad (no longer for sale I think) has a similar header but there is a tiny adapter cable for that to connect to the 2110v. Hard to read and have my mistakes scribbed out, but Ill work on them too.

This cursed-looking adapter I made should allow Protel keypads to be used with a coinless board!

@philtelco I will have to double check, I *thought* it was but should confirm.

@_CRV Does your keypad or housing say Protel anywhere? Looking at your photos I'm not entireless sure if that's what you're working with and the pinout could be different if it's from another manufacturer.

@philtelco *pin out

@philtelco Would you be willing to share the Pinot for your cursed cable? I pretty much have the same situation with a protel keypad and will now be ordering the 2110V.

Progress on pay phone number 2! My lock picking skills are still not good, nor (according to broken bit count) are my lock drilling skills. Either way now that I know there’s no guts in this one, I can get myself a board to work with.

@RyanGilda422 @BlockheadNYC @BackwoodzHipHop @KevinBeacham @rhymesayers Labor Days vs Impossible Kid was a *hard* decision.

FINALS TIME for the favorite Aesop Rock tournament. These four albums won their respective rounds and will fight for Aesop superiority. Vote for your favorite! Retweet to make the vote more accurate. Let’s go! @BlockheadNYC @BackwoodzHipHop @KevinBeacham @rhymesayers

@philtelco Very nice! I have a elcotel phone that I’m about to give up on programming and considering the 2110V gut swap (assuming it’s possible). How are you finding the 2110?

Okay, my diagrams from buzzing out pins were a little wrong (I must have bridged some when testing) but a few wires switched around and it's alive!

@timonsku @theavalkyrie I’ll second the Sony WH-1000XM5

Alright folks, what headphones are you rocking?
