Haha, yes i had a good read through those. I saw a couple of members had xg3 and other xseries in the location i was looking at, which was a good sign. Was just wondering if there were any regrets in choosing that location @mrln @Eriequiet ?
I missed a lot of context,
Where are you thinking?
Both my xg3 attempts Iād say didnāt yield the results I wanted but the locations werenāt ābadā just not good for magnet applications
Well to steal mrlnās picture, i was thinking here:
Itās an xmagic i want to put there. I was just wondering about any issues with rubbing against tendons or migration. Especially if that part of the arm is rubbing against the body or tables etc. i wasnt sure which part near your wrist you had yours though.
Im not using it to directly apply against readers, just using it as a credential holder an copying using a flipper or pn532.
I figured i may as well markup a photo of my own wrist. Iāve marked the two viable positions i was thinking of.
Mine are in the lower line you made, but no issues
A bit deeper than in my hand, but that could be personal insulation levels, installer installed it deep, or just thicker skin in that area
I also have my spark 2 there, which if I remember correctly is pickier on its field distance also
Yeah i think Iāll go closer to the wrist if i can.
Just be aware thereās a decent artery closer to the wrist, that was partially why I moved it down
How do you all open your x-series boxes?
- Tear the side off
- With something sharp
- Open the flap
- Other
Iāve been offered a coding course of my choice. Starting from zero. Preliminary research suggests I should go for Python or C++ but you people have way more knowledge so give me your advice. Other factors: Iām old so I doubt Iāll be learning more than one so versatility is key!
I donāt think I actually did, I think my installer opened the bag
I think he just tore it open though
Wait, the nice black boxes they come in?
Whoās out there tearing the side off those??
Iām so confusedā¦
Nice!
Any idea what you hope to use it for?
Python in my opinion. there are good use cases for C++ but i use Python more in a wide variety of applications
Initially it would just be for my continued education.
Top ambition would be the creation of a simple computer app with a slick GUI. Zinc would be a good example of the style/size. Not the parts that interact with implants. More like turning a small database into a standalone app.
You and me both, haha. But apparently itās a thing.
I used to use an app called Kiosk for that but Iād like to build an app from the ground up.
Also, is there a language closer to microcomputers, arduino, raspberry pi etc?
Arduino uses its own flavor of C++
Raspberry piās can run pretty much whatever you can run on a normal computer
Unless you get the smaller piās like the pico, then itās a little more limited
Too add to @Aoxhwjfoavdlhsvfpzhaās responseā¦ Micropython is a thing on some microcontrollers (the extremely common esp32, for example).
The ESP32 also takes arduino code
The pi picoās one of those that supports micropython too
Options, optionsā¦
