First dash prototype is done

First dash prototype is done

Finally got a working prototype for my cars instrument panel project. Just running a test script for now to make sure everything works at the same time.

We've got the gauges, warning lights, and LCDs to display the milage.

More updates will come as hardware is added and the actual code is written. GitHub link for anyone interested

Need help getting ST7789 Newxie display working with ESP32

I have been working on this code for a couple days and I cant seem to get these two LCDs to display anything. All I get is a blank screen. They each worked when they were connected to an arduino uno, but just don't with an esp32s2. Any ideas? I have a Link to my github with the code. This was the code that worked with arduino that I had claude AI help adapt to an ESP. When it didnt work I tried writing it from scratch myself and I was still getting the same results, just backlight on and no display. I did check all the wires and they aren't broken either and everything is connected correctly as far as i can tell. Below is the schematic and picture of the circuit. Any help or ideas is greatly appreciated.

Also ignore all the other components on the board. This was part of a larger project but the LCDs are the only part that didnt work, nothing else is connected to the ESP

Why can't I decide on a layout

I was finally happy with how my house was turning out. I was even ready to show it off as a very much work in progress, nothing is dyed properly and all my walls and pillars are mismatched. But then I just happened to be playing around with the floorplan editor on the wowdb page and realized if I changed how I built a hallway I could fit 5 rooms in the space I have 4 in AND do it for 3 less room budget. So now my top floor has been deleted and I have to rebuild all the rooms from scratch.

Why am I like this? Send help

Someone was bored in a lab I TA for. Found this artwork on a dask

+10 points if you can calculate the resistance of this network
