Most important thing for any e-com is that it delivers the orders timely. But for @Beco_In it doesn't matter. They take over 3 weeks to deliver order. Over a span of 4 yrs i have ordered 3 times and delayed always.

We're sponsoring Flame Game Jam 2026 with a Comet! 🎮

https://t.co/XjDW91fpoR

Flame is a powerful 2D game engine built on top of Flutter, enabling developers to ship games to Android, iOS, Web and Desktop from a single codebase.

For the battery on the Comet, we use a push connector instead of soldered/glued battery.

Specs:
- 4100mAh capacity
- 4A discharge current (high performance)
- Standard 3-pin connector
- Push connector for easy replacement/alternatives
- No special tools required

What if one device held infinite possibilities?
The Mecha Comet is modular, extensible and ready to adapt to whatever you can think up!

We're releasing mechanical drawings and 3D CAD models, mainboard PCB schematics and reasonably priced spares.

Longevity is not an afterthought for us.

"A user-friendly design and a variety of user interface options make it practical for doing far more than reading email and scrolling social media."

Thank you Nick; this made our day!

Do the Comet extensions fall off? We went to unreasonable lengths to make the tightest grip possible - here's Shoaib demonstrating it at the #FOSDEM booth.

"A handheld that doesn't look too far from the original Nintendo Game Boy, except it's all open source in both hardware and software."

Thank you for such a brilliant take Liam! 🦀

This was our first time at #FOSDEM, we didn’t imagine the scale of it and couldn’t help getting overwhelmed with the sheer number of open-source people attending.

Here are a few glimpses from our booth; a lot of people were surprised to see the Comet in-person :)

[Mecha Systems @mecha_systems]

We also hosted our first ever Mecha Meetup! We showcased our prototypes, how they've evolved, the nitty-gritties of the design, and we also did a live teardown of the Comet!

Here are some clips from the meetup :)

I’ve dreamt about a modular, pocketable device like this for years. If it can get good emulation/software support and a community behind it, it would be the only thing I carry with me every day. So promising

Love this project: https://t.co/V8t5NVB8z0

[Mecha Systems @mecha_systems]

Remember when you could actually open your computer? When 'fixing' didn't mean 'taking it to the store'?

Comet brings that feeling back.

A back cover you can open with your hands. Parts you can actually replace.

I ordered a #mattress from @flomattressin. They mention that they dispatch the order in 8 days. Its been 12 days since I placed the order and they have not even processed the order. Moreover their #CustomerService sucks to the core. #regret #consumerforum #noreply #badfaith
