This week it was Christina's turn to sit in the hot seat with Editor-in-Chief Elliott Williams. First, some news. The results of her 2024 Home Sweet Home Automation contest have been announced. First and second place went to extremely dangerous and well-documented hacks, and third place went to the cutest pill-dispensing robot you'll probably see before heading to a nursing home. Which was your favorite? Let us know in the comments.
Next, go to “What's That Sound”. Christina failed again, but you'll probably take a different path. Take that? do you understand? Do you know what makes that sound? If you can, get a special Her Hackaday Podcast T-shirt when your number comes up.
Next, we move on to the story of a hack that started with a homemade cell phone detector and pen that changed the world. Then we talk about time on a budget, the beautiful marriage of 3D printing and Lego, and, oh yeah, flexure wigs. Finally, we reveal details about the Extender spacecraft and speculate about why it's relatively difficult to set time zones on the Moon.
