It’s been a month now since I started running a public Minecraft server from a $25 phone. Android hates being a server OS but it’s definitely possible with a few tweaks.

Can confirm 4 players connected to a minecraft server running on a $25 phone works surprisingly well.

The fact that you can just plug sensors into the VGA port of an old laptop and get data out is crazy to me. It’s always fun finding GPIO in strange places.

I have had a lot of fun lately letting Claude fully control my old ThinkPad. This finally feels like the correct way to interact with computers, like something’s been missing this entire time until now. Give Claude a laptop to live in, you won’t regret it.

ClawPhone is alive. I installed OpenClaw on a $25 phone and gave it full access to the hardware. I haven’t explored everything yet, but it’s a cool formfactor for agents to run on.

Sensors do indeed work over HDMI. GPIO is everywhere for those with the eyes to see.

I made an app this past weekend using a $30 android smartphone to send me notifications when my dryer was done drying. They sell these phones at a loss thinking you’re gonna buy a data plan, don’t do that. Instead use for DIY projects in place of a raspberry pi or esp32.

Using an HDMI breakout board I was able to run an external monitor and read sensor data at the same time over just the one HDMI port. Feels strange but it works.

You can get WiFi camera drones with BRUSHLESS motors now for under $50. Much better performance than the brushed motor variety which used to be all you could find in this category up until this year. I even tested flying one with a 50g payload onboard and it still flew great.

I spawned in 500 cows and flew around pretty fast and the minecraft server running on a $25 phone held up better than I expected.

I gave ClawPhone a phone number so it could start texting people and turned it into an appointment scheduler. Agent-controlled hardware is definitely the future.

I reverse engineered two more drone apps, adding support for 20 new drone models in TurboDrone including my new favorite the M10 which has brushless motors. Video feeds on this implementation use RTSP which is super smooth and reliable compared to the UDP sliced up JPEG frames I’ve had to deal with in the past. Cheap WiFi camera drones just keep getting better and better.

update: full control achieved. Can now fully control (throttle, pitch, roll, yaw) one of the best selling “toy” drones on Amazon from a desktop client.

atleast 5 more of the best selling "toy" drone models are now supported in turbodrone. I reverse engineered another mobile app called WiFi UAV that they all use and added it to the API. go check it out now!
