Show HN: An old rotary phone converted into a mobile phone
Ha I love it! I love seeing old hardware hacked to bring it kicking and screaming into the modern world. This is why I love things like Arduino's. They a cheap but so much fun.My daughter is 13 and I have been teaching her C (well the Arduino version of C) to make a clapper (clap to turn lights on and off) for her bedroom. She loves it and keeps coming up with ideas for things she wants to do.Future projects include an automatic curtain motor and a remote controlled lock for her desk based on if her phone is or is not near by.I don't know (or care tbh) if she will want to go into the world of computers for a job later in life but I am sure her knowledge of how computers work and not just how to login to Instagram will be benefit for her.
