Any UK based Star Trek fans/cosplayers need 11 Voyager / TNG / late DS9 commbadges? Free to a good home. I print them to test filaments before doing big jobs.

Our friend Tom (@vulpeslabs.bsky.social) has just launched his SPOKE touch-sensitive interactive computer interface board on Kickstarter! It has heaps of touch inputs, a slathering of RGB LEDs, and is powered by the mighty RP2040! Check it out here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/tom...

Does anybody who follows me have both the @pimoroni.com #Presto and a Spotify Premium account? I need somebody to help test github.com/vwillcox/Pre... Skipping does not work and I am stuck as to why!

Thanks to @gadgetoid.com and others the code is no longer crashing WITHOUT REASON! there are still crashes to code out! I've also switched to using #Presto Vector as I can then label the buttons and it looks a lot nicer. I am also now using full res mode as there is not a need for high-speed!

I may now have an @pimoroni.com #Presto in hand. I may also be be starter kit. I have ideas brewing on my mind and when I finish work today I'm going to have a play.

I am continuing to look at my software stacks. For my Talktech.info tech blog - I am switching over to Grav from Wordpress. I love the ease of use and the speed of the software running on a old Laptop that I turned into a Ubuntu Server. #Grav #Wordpress #HomeHosted #Ubuntu #blog #RaspberryPi
