At #OSSummit + #ZDS2025 Europe, Tim Guite (Magpie Embedded) & William Vinnicombe (@Raspberry_Pi) present: A Slice of Zephyr Pi!
Exploring Zephyr support for Raspberry Pi MCUs (RP2040 & RP2350), PIO, Rust, RISC-V & open-source apps built with Zephyr + Pi. https://t.co/s5SQybqwTU

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

Raspberry Pi will be at #OSSummit + #ZDS2025 showing the great work we've been doing getting Zephyr working on @Raspberry_Pi Pico-2W. We may also have some giveaways :)

@TheOpenEyedMan Chris, does that come with doggy bags to clean up the mess?

@NevilleVCole @SadButMadLad @Raspberry_Pi The AI needed to rotate the touch points it received from the raw touch event interface. Not the display, (I had already done that in the configuration)

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

@NevilleVCole @SadButMadLad @Raspberry_Pi Note, I am the author! All LCD displays have a scan direction, this particular display is portrait. In other words it is specifically 720 (horizontal) x 1280 (vertical) pixels. To display landscape means rotating the display in the GPU

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

@NevilleVCole @SadButMadLad @Raspberry_Pi It is...

It's not very often you get an issue posted thanking us for our work!

Today I’m launching a weekly blog entitled The Open Eyed Man

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

People often complain about our use of Wayland,

"X is so much better"

Meanwhile...

@SamanthaSnyder @kilograham5 How about me? I got a GCSE in French…. Basically the only one I actually had to work for!

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

@keboloKachPolto @Raspberry_Pi For free, or would that be a paid service?

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

One thing you get when buying a Raspberry Pi is a dedicated team resourced to continuously maintain and develop the operating system.

Igalia have been working with us for quite a long time now developing our fully open sourced OpenGL and Vulkan drivers

Raspberry Pi Connect has been growing a lot, we're learning lots, but there's still a long way to go!

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

@jaredpalmer Yeah here’s the list https://t.co/oFtIsT2MJV

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

Going to be joining the Tom’s hardware team this coming Tuesday to chat about Raspberry Pi software. There’s a lot of love for Raspberry Pi Connect!

@NetworkChuck Just running the 14b parameter model on a Raspberry Pi 5 16G (we only have two in the office, yes that's the Raspberry Pi office!). It's not fast (obvs), but I do wonder how to measure the quality of its responses in comparison to other "state of the art" solutions.

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

Just made an AI that does millions of tokens per second on a Pi...

while True:
input("Question: ")
if random.random() > 0.5:
print("Yes")
else:
print("No")

Maybe not the most accurate... Let's just ignore anyone asking pertinent questions

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

@salva_lieb @geerlingguy @IloveRockchip Not on Raspberry Pi 5, all the firmware does is clocks and power (and booting of course) everything else is open sourced

[Gordon Hollingworth @RPi_Gordon]

Just going for a a walk in Devon and find this…self service milkshakes and frozen meat, straight from the farm! I’m just hoping there’s a @Raspberry_Pi in there!
