I recently got my hands on a broken Canon PowerShot A560. It's not a very good camera. It's not a very special camera. It's capable of VGA video at 30fps and 7.1MP pictures. I'm not 100% what's wrong with it (other than a broken battery door), but it won't take full resolution pictures. Videos work just fine, but they're not worth fixing the battery door for. So we're going to take it apart the camera and see what we can salvage from it!
Random stuff to do with hardware and software that generally comes from salvaged electronics that never really deserved to be salvaged and weird software stuff.

Make Something That Isn't A Computer A Computer
I asked my girlfriend what I should do for my blog. She suggested that I "make something that isn't a computer a computer." So I looked around for something that I could do that to. I have a router, but that seems too easy with things like OpenWRT and whatnot. How about something a touch more obscure. Why not a drone? I have most of a Parrot Bebop Drone, so we can use different parts of it if we want. I want very much.
