`25.Feb.2024` Forum 64 (Webseite)	DIY: "Joystick Reanimator" repairs micro switches using electric impulses C64 fan 'GI-Joe' - a service technician in real life - has come across many faulty microswitches in his professional life. The silver-plated switching contacts of switches that only have to switch very low currents were often oxidized: the arcing that occurs at higher currents, which "cleans" the oxidizing contacts in a kind of self-cleaning function, does not occur at lower currents. Sooner or later, the electrical resistances become too high due to the oxidizing switching contacts, even though the switch switches mechanically perfectly. To solve this problem with the microswitches built into many joysticks, GI-Joe invented the "Joystick Reanimator": A joystick that no longer works is connected to the device. When the stick is moved or a fire button is pressed, the associated switch is then activated with a current high enough to generate the "self-cleaning" arc. The circuit board also contains connection sockets for a multimeter so that the electrical resistances of the microswitches built into the joystick can be easily tested. German and English instructions as well as all documents required for reproduction (including circuit diagram, assembly list and KiCad project files) are available for download.

`24.Feb.2024` Andreas Magerl (ANF)	Print magazine: Amiga Future, issue 167 - preview and excerpts Previews and excerpts from Amiga Future 167 (March/April 2024) have been published on the magazine's website. Amongst other things, this issue features the following topics: Show report: Passione Amiga Day 2023 Interview: Michael Kafke (ASM Game) Preview: Jari-Matti Rally Review: The last Dungeon Review: Adventure 1 & 2 Review: Jack the Pit Review: Spheroid Review: Ami-H.E.R.O. Review: Stuntman Seymour Review: Board game vs Amiga: Darts Review: FS-UAE 3.1 Review: Frotz Review: Santa´s Workout III - Silent Night Review: Denise – ITX Amiga 500 Review: Super Delivery Boy: The Holiday Shift Review: Amiblaster Clockport Edition Review: Pi Storm #2 Book Review: PHP 8 und MySQL Demoscene: Soil, Knight Chips Workshop: Dynamic websites with PHP The staff asks all Amiga Future subscribers to check that they supplied both their current postal and e-mail addresses to the team. The Amiga Future gets packed and shipped a few days prior to its actual release date, so any changes or updates to the address should passed on to AF before we dispatch it. Bear in mind that requests to forward on mail usually do not cover magazines. The team also asks that you check that your subscription fee(s) are paid - apparently, quite a few subscription fees are still not fully paid. (cg) (Translation: cg) [News message: 24.

`24.Feb.2024`	Controlling Sonos speakers: SonosController 1.4 for all Amiga systems Known for his Workbench simulation TAWS, Michael Rupp has also been working on his Amiga program for controlling Sonos loudspeakers since 2021: SonosController (amiga-news.de reported). He has now released version 1.4, for the first time also for AROS and thus for all Amiga systems, written in the Hollywood 10. As the author reports, he had set up AROS One 2.4 on his older "tinker PC", including a functioning network, and was finally able to test the AROS version of the Sonos controller. After implementing a workaround for a small Zune bug, everything now also works with AROS. The changes in the new version: NEW: first release for AROS x86 NEW: ARexx command REINDEX to invoke re-indexing the Sonos music library NEW: include all icons in every distribution in new subdrawer "Icons" NEW: include additional icons by AMIGASYSTEM (thanks Carlos!) IMPROVED: reloading the browser with F5 will not loose the selected position and item anymore. FIXED: loading of data (playlists, queues, etc.) is no longer limited to 100 entries (bug introduced with 1.3). FIXED: if network is off the app won't crash on startup but show an error message. FIXED: possible crash when clicking the "looking for Sonos..." entry. (dr) [News message: 24. Feb. 2024, 08:16] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
