Hopefully a newer and more reliable “Computa Pranksta” mouse jiggler device will ever be released
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/05/30
For my link archive as this was a cool idea, but for many their device didn’t last that long:
[Wayback/Archive] ElectricRCAircraftGuy/eRCaGuy_ComputaPranksta_Support: Public support for my “Computa Pranksta” mouse jiggler device I sell on Amazon and elsewhere.
This device is a mouse jiggler. It keeps your computer awake. It can also be used to have some fun with your friends (please don’t take it too far–it’s meant to be used in good, friendly gest–not for any type of malicious purposes).
Notes:
- There are software based Mouse Jiggler implementations as well; I wrote about one of them a loooooong time ago in Mouse Jiggler – MouseJiggle.exe will (virtually) move your mouse cursor so the screen saver does not start.
- I have a bunch of “original” USB Mouse Jigglers of which there are compact and long ones. I forgot I had ordered the compact ones too, so I got reminded when I decommissioned the old kiosk machine after my mom passed away and had to lookup what a [Wayback/Archive] cru mj-3 – Google Search was (:
Links on those USB Mouse Jigglers below, but first some links on the Computa Pranksta:

Special cartridges with heat-shrink tubing for dymo and brother label writers
Posted by jpluimers on 2023/04/26
Labeling cables is important, especially when you have a lot of them, and it is tough:
- Paper and plastic tables tend to loosen over time.
- Numbers or letters you can snap on only work on thicker cables and over time tend to break loose (due to plasticisers evaporating).
- Permanent markers are less permanent and fade over time.
Hopefully heat-shrink tubing you can print on with either Dymo or Brother laber writers will outlast 3. At least they won’t loosen like 2. and 1.
So I was glad that [Archive] Jilles🏳️🌈 (@jilles_com) / Twitter started a thread, which I tried to help keeping coherent.
Some of the messages:
- [Archive] Jilles🏳️🌈 on Twitter: “When you are chaotic and don’t want to mess stuff up”
- Dymo
- [Archive] stacksmashing on Twitter: “@jilles_com At the risk of contributing to your filled mailbox: Do you know that there’s Dymo Heat-Shrink-Tubing? “
- [Archive] Bruce Barnett on Twitter: “@ghidraninja @jilles_com “Compatible with DYMO Rhino 4200, 5200, 6000 industrial label printers.” :-( But Robert Darby’s review says it works on the $20 model 160 as well!! I’m in!”
- [Wayback/Archive] Works great with the cheaper printers too!
On a whim I ordered the DYMO LabelManager 160 label maker (well under $20) on the off chance that since the label reels are identical between the vinyl labels that it uses and this shrink wrap that maybe, just maybe it’ll work. Not to mention, save me at least $60.
As it turns out , IT DOES WORK ! - [Archive/ Jilles🏳️🌈 on Twitter: “@grymoire @ghidraninja I own a Dymo LabelManager 220P and according to the shrinktube is D1 and compatible with my label writer. Will see if that’s true tomorrow. “
- [Wayback/Archive] Works great with the cheaper printers too!
- [Archive] Bruce Barnett on Twitter: “@jpluimers @bencpye @ghidraninja @jilles_com …”
- [Archive] Bruce Barnett on Twitter: “@jpluimers @bencpye @ghidraninja @jilles_com And the Amazon link is here …”
- [Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers on Twitter: “@grymoire @bencpye @ghidraninja @jilles_com Jilles already got it in the mail. Awesome! …”
[Archive] Jilles🏳️🌈 on Twitter: “Seems Nineleaf is selling DYMO compatible printable heat shrink tubes for way less: 1805443 24mm 18057 19mm = 3/4″ 18055 12mm = 1/2″ 18053 9mm = 3/8″ 18051 6mm = 1/4″ …”- [Archive] Bruce Barnett on Twitter: “@jilles_com @jpluimers @bencpye @ghidraninja Here’s the US amazon link for the 1/2” tape (18055/18056) from Nineleaf. 1 DYMO costs $34, while 3 Nineleaf cartridges costs $15. Much cheaper! No reviews though… …”

- Sie brauchen einen alten PC oder einen Raspberry Pi. Die Verbindung zwischen Micro-Controller und PC/Raspberry Pi besteht aus einem seriellen Verbindungskabel (max. Kabellänge 50m).
- Der PC/Raspberry Pi braucht einen Internetanschluss. Je nachdem wie die Internet-Verbindung realisiert wird, muss in der Nähe des PC’s eine freie Netzwerkdose vorhanden sein.
