Andre Weissflog has created chips, a toolbox of 8-bit chip-emulators, helper code and complete embeddable system emulators in dependency-free C headers (a subset of C99 that compiles on gcc, clang and cl.exe). The Tuny Emus website is a compilation of emulated software based on chips. The arrow keys generally work for navigation and files can […]

Michael Klements recently was wondering about the home shop… What’s actually happening to the air in there? I’ve got printers, printers, dust from outside fumes from soldering, or is there something else I should be worrying about? So over the past week I’ve been measuring the air quality, and the results weren’t quite what I […]

Heikki Lotvonen, a graphic designer from Finland, compiled this detailed and thorough list of text art tools It started out as a list for ASCII and textmode art editors but grew to include all kinds of alternative design tools. I’ve hosted two workshops where the assigment is to create a printed zine without the use […]

User speccy88 on the Adafruit Forums posts: I’ve been chasing a real OS for Fruit Jam. Started by forking Mr-Bossman’s Linux port — Fruit Jam’s a great target with its HDMI, USB, NeoPixels, speaker, buttons, IR receiver, and generous PSRAM/Flash. Got a lot of hardware working, plus HTTP, FTP, and Telnet servers, but Linux is […]

Eric Schlaepfer On Tube Time has the reverse engineered schematic and layout for a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5. It’s not meant to be fabricated–critical signal integrity parameters aren’t correct, it’s not 100% faithful to the original, the footprints aren’t a perfect match, and the bill of materials is not reverse engineered. You also won’t […]
