I need some suggestions. I had the Kosmos X1000 series of electronics experiment kits as a kid. There's a 10 year old that might like something along these lines. Trouble is: the modern experiment boxes are really naff. They are really limited, big parts catering to limited motor skills, with experiments I did in elementary school (mostly) with wires tacked onto literal bread boards (wooden cutting boards).

Any suggestions (no soldering) for today?

Im Kabelwald: erfolgreiche Tests mit neuem VCA-Modul, so langsam wird das was. Und keine größeren Böcke beim Löten geschossen. Also bis auf die vertauschten Anschlüsse erstmal ...

Reading literally any tech forum with no knowledge.

Currently filming a tutorial for my light-sensing DIY bristle bots aka mothbots. I got a bit carried away with all the different designs ;)

Has anyone tried using an 880×528 24-pin e-ink display (like the 7.5" tri-color one from WaveShare) with Seeed Studio's XIAO ePaper Display EE04 controller board? They don't list it as a supported option, but they have a 24-pin connector and support very similar screens, just not that particular resolution.

I hope I'm able to get these working together; otherwise I'll have to find a different controller.

For the next batch of earrings, I plan on adding a bunch more pride flags to the earrings. Any suggestions? I already have the rainbow flag and the trans flag.

Note that because these are LEDs, the colors black and gray are difficult to represent so for example the ace flag sadly won't work well.
