    Last night was D&D night.

    My Paladin is level 5, Oath of Ancients Paladin, follower of god of nature Silvanus and bearer of Dawnbringer, a sentient sun sword (Longsword +2 that does 1d8 radiant damage instead of slashing, has a blade of pure light that can be changed in brightness and when not in use is just a hilt. Yes, my Paladin has a light sabre). The spirit in the Dawnbringer is the spirit of a very old warrior of the light that was felled a thousand years ago. Her temple fell into the Underdark and now she desperately wants to bring light to all places. Which means whenever I douse the light of the sword, I run the risk of pissing off the sword. However, I am sworn to bring light and justice to the dark places, so it's a pretty good combo.

    ANYWAY. We were on the edge of the Dark Lake when we were attacked by a giant demon called a Chasme, that looks like a big fly with a pointed proboscis. All but one of the party failed the saving throws to not be knocked unconscious by it's droning sound, which made for a yakkety sax-esque opening to the fight. After we were brought back to consciousness, the melee people had trouble fighting a flying enemy, so I stood forth with my brightly lit Dawnbringer and yelled:

    "You think you can keep away from me? I AM THE RIGHT HAND OF SILVANUS!"

    I cast Misty Step to teleport onto the Chasme, but rolled a 3 on the check to see if I could actually land on a moving object and *sploosh* into the Lake I went.

    Later on we were tasked with killing a Grick, a giant worm thing, that was endangering a colony of Mycinids. Our barb/rogue was scouting ahead and rolled a natural 20 perception, so he spotted the Grick concealing itself as a rock. He threw a fireball bead at it, which exploded, and the surprised Grick reared up to reveal it was an Alpha Grick. I rolled the highest initiative, so I charged at the Grick. My movement wasn't sufficient so I used Misty Step as a bonus action to teleport the rest of the distance, yelled, 'HOW MANY LICKS DOES IT TAAAAAAAKE!?" and did my two attacks with my brightly lit Dawnbringer sword. I used a Divine Smite level 2 on the first hit and did over 30 radiant damage, and a level one Divine Smite on the second hit and did over 20 radiant damage.

    And the Grick was dead.

    So it was a mix of hilarious hijinks and unstoppable badassery.

    5 wires. Green is a part of every combo.

    Green Brown: Feet Go Down
    Green Yellow: Feet go up
    Green Red: Head goes up
    Green Black: Head goes down

    There's a head up/down button
    a feet up/down button
    and a both at the same time up/down button

    @Ludious

    So it looks like green is your power, and it's just completing a circuit between green and whatever color to do whatever you need it to do.

    You would just need to splice a whole bunch of wires together to feed green into the other wires via relays or optos at this point. You can then use the arduino to turn the relays on and off and supply power from the green to the completed circuits for whichever one you want to do. It'd be like twisting the wires together at that point. Green is your input, and the color would be your output from the relay, if I'm understanding the circuitry correctly.

    not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

    Okay now someone tell me which of these zillion password managers to use

    Preferably one that is free and has all the features of the paid ones

    http://keepass.info/

    Password manager software and you keep the password database where you want, not with some company/service.

    The only totally free one is KeePass, which requires you to manage the cloud side of it if wanted. This is the kind of thing you should probably pay for considering they have all your passwords.

    Lastpass is $1/mo. I don't know what 1Password costs these days, but they don't charge you again until the next major version.

    Re: password managers.

    I haven't used 1password, but I do know that LastPass is free, cross-platform, and AES-256 end-to-end encrypted. Even if they were hacked only an encrypted jumble would be leaked, and it would take the fastest supercomputers billions of years to brute-force said encrypted jumble.

    1 password is apparently on a subscription model now a days.

    Keepass sounds nice unless my database gets lost due to a failing drive or something

    A dollar a month or so sounds pretty reasonable though.

    Lastpass is only free if you don't change device class, which isn't super useful unless you don't use a smartphone.

    Ok this is very good. I only need one more piece of info that you probably cannot give now but you can later. Just @ me.

    Get a voltmeter and connect the black lead to the green wire and the red lead to any other color. You can do it just with your fingers pressing them together. What voltage does it read? Is it positive or negative? Opto-isolaters require that the current flow in only one direction so this will determine which wire goes in which terminal.

    It would be normal for green to be ground and all the other wires to be some voltage between 3 and 24 (in which case the number is positive) but it could be exactly the opposite (the number would be negative).
