Lazyweb: I have local servers that have HTTP(s) endpoints for doing Special Events.
What's the easiest way to get a physical button that I can stick some batteries into, and it'll trigger that HTTP call (over the wifi) when I push the button?

@foone you can buy those old amazon buy now buttons on ebay, ive got a big bin of them, they are a battery and button and some kinda wireless all in one!

@0x00string @foone second this; I use them via the amazon-dash python package and redirect the press to an internal network endpoint for random house stuff. Only issue is you can brick the older ones (I've got a few dead ones); Adafruits's feather hardware is probably more reliable/less costly choice if not on hand
