Utopia Talk / Politics / USB solenoid?

Sam Adams rank	Mon Aug 30 16:35:07 2021 I want one of my remote workstations to push a button for me. Anyone ever do something like this?
Dukhat rank	Mon Aug 30 17:01:53 2021 This is why we need immigrants. To push buttons for the white master race fat ass remote working at home.
Paramount rank	Mon Aug 30 23:03:20 2021 You don’t need immigrants anymore now that there are robots: MicroBot Push Robotic technology for any button MicroBot Push's robotic techonolgy enables pressing virtually any type of button a human can press. http://microbot.is/products/microbot-push Or maybe you can build a robotic arm of some sort. You can probably find instructions on the internet.

Hrothgar rank	Tue Aug 31 00:22:01 2021 http://robotask.com/ This app might help? Send keyboard input programmatically? Looks like you'd probably run that app on the remote workstation and configure it with what to do. No commands going over the network, it would be local based.

Nimatzo rank	Tue Aug 31 11:17:49 2021 So, there is literally a button you put over buttons to push them for you. My whole life has been a lie! How long has this been going on?? This is one of those easy things that I have over engineered in my head, I will be honest. I thought we needed robots! My button pushing days are over, you can bet your ass. I'm gonna program a remote control with 1 button and then when I push that button, it will push ALL the buttons I have! Muuu hahahahahaha!

Sam Adams rank	Tue Aug 31 16:30:11 2021 "What exactly are you trying to do?" Just want one of my computers to turn on something nearby for me when i am away.
Habebe rank	Wed Sep 15 01:54:19 2021 Ever try it out?
Sam Adams rank	Wed Sep 15 03:43:00 2021 Not yet. Still on the backburner. Other work things take priority.
jergul rank	Wed Sep 15 12:29:57 2021 Why would you not just leave your computer on?
Sam Adams rank	Wed Sep 15 15:31:38 2021 Because on rare occasions there is a power outage. One machine conveniently turns itself back on... and im like maybe this one can reawaken its neighbors.
Nimatzo rank	Wed Sep 15 16:22:31 2021 Sam there is literally a button that you put over a button. Paramount posted it. It's retail, no solenoids. http://microbot.is/products/microbot-push
Sam Adams rank	Wed Sep 15 16:36:03 2021 I do not think a microbot hub will be acceptable to security, unfortunately, because that does indeed look like the easy way to go in a normal location. A non-wifi piece added on to an already approved machine would not be a security and interference concern.
Nimatzo rank	Wed Sep 15 17:55:00 2021 Fair enough. With all button pushing wifi bandits. Who knows! :)
