Adafruit Receives Demand Letter From Fenwick Legal Counsel on Behalf of Defy Gravity, Inc. Flux. AI (“Flux”) adafruit.com/flux

I'm excited to share that #teardown2026 will be happening 24-26th July. Our 60s mall era is dead; long live our 60s motel era. Tickets, call for participation and volunteers, and details on the @crowd_supply website: crowdsupply.com/teardown/por…

Posted the most important video of my career today. Now live on YouTube. The FAA is in Crisis youtu.be/aj0H8oVS7qg

Making progress on my piano TV. Needs note rain next.

The panels that come with the Pimoroni Interstate75 2350w seem to be a good fit with lego. Here they are sitting perfectly in a gap of 40x40 studs. (plus 1 stud all around the edge 42x42)

We’re bringing Pebble back → rePebble.com

Why? Because even 8 years later, you still can’t beat a Pebble. I wrote in more detail on my blog ericmigi.com/blog/why-were-b…

I built an E-Ink AI Image (and text) display using a Raspberry Pi! Featuring the Inky Impression from @pimoroni YouTube Video: youtu.be/ZsEpd-VwJCs #diy #raspberrypi #pi #rpi #eink #EPaper #maker #dalle #openai @Raspberry_Pi

RT @thekelham: Come and join us at 4:15pm for some Christmas carols with @OughtiBrassBand. Thanks to @DorothyPax for organising. https://t.…

It's been a journey, but my @Raspberry_Pi powered self playing Axe Bass from Adventure Time video is finally complete! Watch to find out how I made this whole thing in two months, what it actually sounds like, and how it fared at @DragonCon! youtu.be/l0kC0hDcMUo

Folks asked for a guide/documentation for the @Adafruit Feather RP2350 PyDOS handheld build. It's now at adafruit-playground.com/u/An…. If you say it could have been built with a smaller microcontroller: true, but the @Raspberry_Pi RP2350 has lots of space and is snappy. Just right.

Rare post here so people don't miss it: As usual, I have designed the stupidest thing possible for @hackaday #supercon - if you have #hexpansion boards (*cough* @guru), you should bring them, as I should have SAO to hexpansion adapters to hand out, assuming all goes well.

You think you’ve got the FOMO under control then it’s all @SamanthaSnyder @KatzCreates @amiedoubleD @tlynnr85 QUAD DAMAGE LED GLITTER COMBO.

I made some PCBs! I’ve been needing these for quite a few projects! Should also let me finish the wall drawing robot too! Thanks @PCBWayOfficial @SGirl0311 for sponsoring this project - I’ll post more once I’ve soldered everything up!

PSA🚨 You might have seen the recent videos from @NathanBuilds or an article on @hackaday about the potential dangers of carbon fibers in filaments, comparing it to asbestos 😳 Given that we offer several filaments containing carbon fibers, I thought many of you would be interested in how our materials fare in terms of safety 💡 Since we leave nothing to chance, and we noticed early that carbon fibers can sometimes get stuck on the skin and remain there even after several hand washes, we had thorough laboratory tests conducted by the National Institute of Public Health before we first introduced these materials into production. These tests focused on ensuring the safety of everyone in our factory during manufacturing and your safety when you use and handle these materials. TLDR - our @prusament filaments with carbon fibers and prints made of them are safe ✅ The National Institute of Public Health used two methods of measurement. The skin irritation (image 1) and cytotoxicity (image 2) tests involved 30 volunteers (aged between 29 and 70 years) wearing prints made of PCCF and PA11CF materials taped to their skin. The measurement results showed that none of the volunteers had the slightest irritation even after more than 72 hours of wearing the print on their skin. The other test focused on airborne particles (image 3), measuring dust levels during production and printing with these materials. The results from the dust measurement were well below the established exposure limits. There are several different types of carbon fibers. Some of them (so-called pitch-based) have sharp edges and are therefore easier to catch on your skin and tissue. We do not use these fibers! Instead, we use so-called pan-based fibers, which do not have a sharp edge and therefore do not cause the described problems. Image 4 shows the different types of fiber - A, C, E - Pan and B, D, F - Pitch (Source: aaqr.org/articles/aaqr-19-03…) However, the fibers still can cause irritation if inhaled - e.g. if you sand a 3D-printed part or have carbon fiber part "rubbing" on something. If you are sanding 3D prints, filled with fibers or not, I would always wear a respirator or other respiratory protection. Safety first!

This is one of the coolest things I've made in a long while! See it @LpoolMakeFest this Saturday (if it survives the trip)! #LivMF24

Mode switch from CA/SF/@OpenSauceLive to PNW/Oregon/Portland/PDX/@crowd_supply Teardown.

Serious pre-@OpenSauceLive prep with a Heist ‘Captain Crunch’ breakfast burrito. It’s gonna be a loooong weekend.
