Customizing the color schemes for your computer. Color themes for your system and applications

In a rather recent development, more and more software can be set to different color schemes. Usually, CSS is used for defining different designs (themes). Here is a list:

  • Microsoft Windows 10: built in 
  • Microsoft Windows Powershell 5.1 (powershell.exe): Right mouse button context menu > "Preferences" > "Colors" > "Screen background"
  • Microsoft Windows PowerShell ISE (Powershell_ISE.exe): "Tools" > "Options"
  • Microsoft Office: built in
  • Firefox: built in: Preferences > "Addons" > "Themes" + "Preferences", section "Fonts and Colors" > "Colors..." > "background" + ShadowFox + Add-on "DarkReader" 
  • Bio7: built-in: "Window" > "Switch Theme"

Scalable knitting patterns with open source software: Textile design with Inkscape and GIMP.

I made a video tutorial that explains how to design knitting patterns that can be scaled to arbitrary size using the open source programs Inkscape v0.92 and  GIMP 2.10.10 . It may be especially interesting to the community of the All Yarns are Beautiful (AYAB) project . This page was moved to https://derandere.gitlab.io/scalable-knitting-patterns-inkscape .

AYAB shield - self soldered circuit board for a computer-controlled knitting machine

[Werbung ohne Auftrag / unpaid advertisement]  Proudly presenting my first soldering job: A printed circuit board for hacking a brother KH 910 knitting machine. The self-soldering kit of the so-called AYAB Arduino shield from the All Yarns Are Beautiful project of the Chaos Computer Club Munich enables control from a personal computer via USB. The AYAB shield sits on top of an Arduino Uno-compatible development board featuring an ATmega328PU microcontroller by Microchip Technology Inc. (formerly Atmel). The AYAB software for controlling knitting machines can be downloaded from https://ayab-knitting.com/ . This website was moved to https://derandere.gitlab.io/physical-programming/ .

Demonstration of the lab robot "PipetBot-A8" by DerAndere.

I am proudly presenting a working prototype of my pipetting robot "PipetBot-A8".  Of course it is an ongoing project and there are many things to improve, but the device is doing what I want and its precision is already quite good. Here is a link to the video . After I finally managed to fix most issues with my robot control software GGCGen, it is ready for testing. I uploaded an introductory video that showcases the Graphical G-code Generator . Visit the page "PipetBot-A8" on this blog for details. Brought to you by DerAndere.
