Youā€™re probably too advanced for that particular bug.

I thought Tom Scott had a great video on the subject but I canā€™t find it :thinking:

In the very narrow niche of using hand tracking for fun stuff with magnet implants this is new and exiting! :grin:

I want one really bad but I just invested in a Flipper. Also developing on a platform that nobody has is not super fun :sweat:

@5hi3ld That looks like a typical install, nothing to worry about.
I do have a question though
Is that remnants of iodine on you skin!?
Did your installer allow it to dry before piercing your skin?

Numberphile did one aaaggges ago

wait one, let me find a linkā€¦

Okay thatā€™s it Iā€™m getting one. I find the price reasonable actuallyā€¦


Brace yourselves for some wild augmented reality - biomagnet shit. Which I will be sharing for whoever has one of course :magnet::rocket:

If I find a way to integrate it on Android then this is going to be crazy! Precise hand tracking + androidā€™s AR in unity?! Youā€™re about to touch unicorns :joy:

Done!

Hello @Pilgrimsmaster.
Yes, itā€™s ā€œbetadineā€ which contains iodine. And yes, he let it dry.

Itā€™s a me thing, not a you thing :wink:

I did consider it also, for the same reasons as you mentioned.
BUT
I decided to go case sensitive for a number of reasons.

I thought the same a while ago with xEM, thinking nothing of it, UNTIL somebody wrote
exempt
Its fine now though, because, the NExT was the outlier, so I made the watched word as ā€œThe NExTā€
Then somebody wrote
"The next implant i get will beā€¦:
So this prompted me to contact the Discourse developers, and after some back and forth, and a very long time later, they finally fixed it

So now, since I asked for the ability to be able to do it, I really should use it.

Plus, it also ā€œTeachesā€ people to write the implant name ā€œproperlyā€, and when they do, the reading of post become just a little more easy.

AND, the are some people that the ā€œblue linksā€ annoy (no idea why, it seems pretty inert to me), so this way there will be slightly fewer for them, but still plenty dotted around to make it easy for people reading a post/ thread of interest and a link straight to the webstore

Ok perfect. That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for all that work!!

And I love the blue links. Cause then I can just click them and see directly what people are talking about. :grin:

One more thing. Cause I still donā€™t quite get it.

Between the Xmagic and the NExT, the Xmagic would also be able to open the HF lock for my bus right? Itā€™d just have to be programmed first?
Is that right?
Or is it a different chip type?
Where as the NExT comes preprogrammed?

Iā€™m thinking of getting one of each. The price difference isnā€™t important.

Thanks for redirecting me to where my questions donā€™t bug as many people. Haha. Trying to learn but itā€™s slow going.

Yes

Enroll would be easier
(use the ā€œaddā€ card, then swipe your xMagic)
Programmed, similar, but you would just copy a pre-enrolled card/fob and write that to your xMagic

yes, different chip types, but they are BOTH compatible with your bus lock.

I think where you may be getting confused is:
the UID (Uniquie ID)
The NEXT (HF side) has a UID number that cant be changed.
The xMagic (HF side) has a NUID (non-unique ID), meaning

I think this is a great idea, you will have 4 chips, and all very useful.
I also think you should get them sooner rather than later, becauseā€¦

I think once you have them, all will make sense.

Heres what I think you should do

Get both NExT AND xMagic (although, you probably really only need the NExT for your situation)
Put the NExT in the hand that you plan on opening your bus with.
Use your flipper to copy a current enrolled card and write the LF side OR the ā€œaddā€ card of your LF reader to enroll it into the reader
Then use the ā€œaddā€ card of your HF reader
and the to enroll it into the reader

From then on, you should be all sorted and never have to change them again.
You can also use your NExT for sharing a business card, or storing links etc.

With the xMagic, that, combined with your flipper will become your ā€œhackingā€ toys.
for making projects or when staying in hotels etc.
