What could possibly go wrong? I'm helping with an @EEHackSpace project to highlight the waste involved in disposable vapes. This is two boxes of LiPo cells that have been recovered from them near the Hackspace in the last few weeks. We have lots and lots more. Beware rule 0

Beeb beeping again.

Serial monitor using the @emfcamp 2014 badge. I’ll put the CAD and code up when I’m finished tweaking. @jonty @dpslwk

Today’s achievement: driving the display on the 2014 EMF Camp badge from the bare metal. The battery still works too! @emfcamp @jonty

Lunar Lander now at the Under The Pier Show @southwoldpier Next to the excellent Mobility Masterclass. If you missed @emfcamp now’s your chance @jonty

Anyone beaten me on Lunar Lander yet? #emfcamp #emfcamp2022

You know that thing where 15 years ago you designed a hat with an LED marquee and now you have a perfect opportunity to wear it but you can’t remember how the UI works. So you grep 6TB using the prompt to find the source code and reverse engineer that. @emfcamp #emfcamp2022

A different Saturday. Spot me up in these photos!

If, like me, you love the BBC micro then you need to try this simulation. It's the nearest I've found to having the real thing in front of you. virtual.bbcmic.ro

Rough but functional homemade 3D printed glasses so I can keep using my old lenses while the frame is reglazed

Very neat idea.

I was in the BBC Micro gang (we were posh), but the ZX81 and Spectrum really did bring computing to an new audience , and drove so much innovation. Mind you, he was always only a step away from cutting one corner too many. RIP for an legend.
