Blog updated!
The Call for Presentations for 2025 is open!!
I am not in need for a computer at the moment but I wanted to support @mntmn and their team a little, so I bought a hooded zipper [0] with a logo. It is cosy and looks nice. You can do the same to support open hardware projects.

I finally have a partial answer to the question "how long will a #Signet last?"
Previously, we have never seen one wear out, but after 7.5 years, most of which was daily use, my 2017 Signet started having intermittent problems with the USB connector. I had to jiggle it to get it to work.
7+ years is better than you'll get from any commercial company, but here's the real kicker...
I replaced the USB connector and it works reliably again!

Big news: the first Liberux dev-board is here!
After weeks of work, we’ve finally received the assembled PCB and already started booting it up. Our hardware team has spent the last days debugging, testing, and getting the SoC to talk to the PC, and we’re officially entering the bring up phase! 
We just published a full post with all the details, photos and videos:

I'll put #FreeSoftware, #OpenSource and #OpenHardware in the same basket of empowering users. They're also key for preservation and reducing #ewaste
I was browsing mods for an old #thinkpad, and came across display mods that enable swapping in a bigger and more modern screen. Both the #x200 and #x230 apparently have been modded to support #eDP screens.
The people doing these mods charged money, which is fine. But didn't publish schematics, instructions etc., which is not fine.
New video! I'm building the Open Source Arcade Stick in the DE-9 version (Commodore, Atari etc) with adjustable auto fire and lit fire buttons.

Hej ho, dzisiaj dzielę się z wami pierwszymi wrażeniami nt. #Tangara, ale jako, że nie ma co za dużo pisać na temat samego urządzenia (bo jest super), to jest jeszcze trochę gadania o ołpen sors, oprogramowaniu dookoła (numer 3 was zaskoczy!) i smutne gadanie na temat przemysłu muzycznego, zapraszam do czytania!

PS. to chyba najdłuższy tekst jaki napisałem na bloga i chyba mnie trochę niepokoi, że teksty mi puchną

semipythonic · Tangara - trochę jak iPod, ale Open Source/Hardware (i parę tematów obok)Hej ho! Dzisiaj przybyłem do Was z dawką przemyśleń, wrażeń i okołomuzycznych doświadczeń z używania odtwarzacza Tangara, który jest jak iPod, ale nie do końca.
Co to w ogóle Tangara? Tangara jest takim śmiesznym urządzeniem, które jest w dzisiejszych czasach trochę zapomniane, a mianowicie — odtwarzacz muzyki. Jest oparte w całości na otwartych rozwiązaniach, cały kod źródłowy, jak i schematy są dostępne na Codebergu CTZ oraz SourceHut Jacqueline. Jest to o tyle fajne, że nawet jeśli Cool Tech Zone zniknie z powierzchni Ziemi, to każdy jest w stanie1 ma możliwość dopisać coś, co uważa za potrzebne.
We're exploring ideas and would love your input!
Our current StarFighter laptop (Intel 285H, 64GB RAM, 4K 16" screen) comes in at around £1700 ex VAT.
We're thinking about offering a lower-spec model as well - less memory, a slightly slower processor and a lower-resolution screen - with a price point of around £1200 ex VAT.
Would that be of interest to you?
Let us know what you think!
Gibt es hier Leute, die #Smartwatch|es empfehlen können, die: a) den #Schlaf tracken können. b) die Daten nicht irgendwie in eine fremde, von anderen einsehbare Cloud laden. Und c) auf möglichst viel #OpenSource code (oder gar #OpenHardware) setzen?

First Look at the Bare Liberux Nexx PCBs
Our redesigned prototypes have arrived completely bare! These are the raw PCBs, fresh from manufacturing, before any components are assembled.
It’s been a long wait, but they’re finally in the hands of our assembler! Now, we’re excited for the next step: having them fully assembled in our hands. 
Stay tuned for more updates as we bring Liberux Nexx to life!
