Anyone in the #linuxmobile community thinking of attending the #OHS2024 in Montreal? I’m compelled to go for a few reasons, not least because it wouldn’t cost much nor would it take 3 flights and 24+ hours travel to get there. Don’t get me wrong, I’m excited to be in Belgium for #FOSDEM2024. Can’t wait to meet y’all!

@dosnostalgic Hey! Following your account made me want to get into 486 gaming. I had a friend in another city pick up a 486 IBM Ambra from 1992 for me. It’s exactly what I had growing up. I can’t wait to get my hands on it! I just need to find a CRT monitor that’s in good shape and I’m gonna Doom like it’s 1993. Keep up the great posts!

@dosgameclub I just discovered your podcast and I’m working through your newest episode on #jazzjackrabbit. I’m really enjoying it! 👍 So much so that I had to pull down Jazz and play it on my Miyoo. It’s fun to play having learned all the quirks of the game from your podcast. I’m looking forward to listening to your episodes on #stunts, #onemustfall, and #raptor. Probably my 3 favourite DOS games of all time!

#Groupgets is great and I love their #FLIR products but the PureThermal OpenMV really takes the cake. I’ve dabbled in FLIR with a 2.5 #lepton lens and a small breakout board but a full handheld open source camera is next level. No need for iOS or Android apps. Includes a larger battery than the mobile FLIR One. If only it weren’t so expensive! I’d rather upgrade my current lens to a 3.5 and double my resolution. Still very cool. https://groupgets.com/manufacturers/getlab/products/purethermal-openmv

Coming to you from my #OP6 running #droidian. Beautiful display for #Phosh and a smooth and snappy experience all around. I was going to drive this over the long weekend but I can't seem to get data over cellular. APN is setup and all but Internet is only available over Wi-Fi. Sounds like a somewhat common issue. May be an Android 9 issue or a me issue. I'll keep at it and post more on this soon. #linuxmobile

Thanks to @lukehod and his Pi-Off code I can now turn my Pi running on solar on and off over Wi-Fi using a tethered #ESP8266. This saves a whole 110mA (minus a few mA for the ESP8266). This should help during those cloudy 🌥️ periods. https://github.com/lukehod/Pi-Off

Exciting times! After mounting my off-grid solar panel last week, I finally deployed the charge controller, pi zero, and bucket of sensors in the weatherproof box today. Thanks to #SerialRenogy, I’m watching all my data come in live on a pretty #grafana dashboard but now that the sun has set, I don’t know if the 12V battery will make it until sunrise…. 😬 https://github.com/MaffooClock/SerialRenogy

Getting an early start on #FOSDEM 2024. Installed #Confy from the #PureOS store. It's an older version sir, but it checks out. Just import the URL of the 2024 schedule from https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/xml #FOSDEM2024 #librem5

The #DiscoveryDish by the makers of the #KrakenSDR reached its funding goal! If all goes well, a few hundred supporters including myself will be getting our dishes by summer 2024. I can’t wait to watch our planet #Earth live from space! https://www.crowdsupply.com/krakenrf/discovery-dish
