@MakeAugusta @blind_via Either that, or it's designed for pin-in-paste soldering.

Şu ölçü aletleri neredeyse bedavaya satılıyor ama canınızı ve malınızı seviyorsanız 40 volt üzerinde ya da 200-300 mA'den fazla akım ölçmek için kullanmayın. Sarı ok ile işaretlediğim kısımda ölçüm ucu ve COMM ucu o kadar yakın ki, şebekeye dokunmak cesaret ister.

@LukeSwitzer_ I can highly recommend @lectronz !

[Alberto Gil Tesa @giltesa]

One week since @tindie died. I’m testing @lectronz, and honestly the interface, the ability to apply taxes or duties by country, shipping options, etc., are very flexible.
It’s not WooCommerce, but it’s not bad at all, better than Tindie, Etsy, and eBay.

@geerlingguy Maybe the Tangara is something for you... https://t.co/E5oXfj5SAc

@DanielBogdanoff I got the Pace ADS 00 with instant set back that automatically shuts down. Funnily enough, it didn't work out of the gate and required a firmware update (which meant replacing the PLCC microcontroller).
As a failsafe they're connected to an outlet that turns off with the lights

MicroPython-based OS with Android-like GUI that works on ESP32 and other microcontrollers
https://t.co/vYu5JbktIk

MicroPythonOS comes with an appstore, an LVGL-based touchscreen and button UI with plenty of widgets, gestures and theme support, and a WiFi manager, as well as over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates.

The open-source project features a thin OS for hardware initialization, multitasking, and UI, and everything else is an app. It also runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS for easy app development. #fosdem2026

This time it's our turn to release a stocking stuffer ;-) A small Holiday themed solder kit that's easy to assemble.

Just in time for the Holidays! Get your friends the gift of a small keyboard at the price of large seasonal cold coffee at Starbucks 😆 we've used these for @Fri3dCamp 2024 and they sold out in no time!

@cnxsoft Finding a clone of an open source product on Chinese webshops is neither a surprise, nor innovation. They just removed the @solderparty logo. For the love of @oshwassociation , support the original designer instead of someone who just copied and changed the name.

[Wim Van Gool @Brubacker]

@QVHenkel I see there is ample room for debugging options! 😅

If you're curious about the keyboard used in the #why2025 badge or in the Tanmatsu, you can learn more about it and our other projects here:

Clear PCBs feel illegal

@robin7331 This looks really nice! Knowing you'll be using it for thousands of magazines, makes it worth to properly engineer such solutions.
