#badgemagic — Public Fediverse posts

While the badges @fossasia were selling at @fosdem have been hacked in 2013, user-facing means to use them are still lacking. Which is unfortunate, given that so many hackers now got them.

Inspired by another excellent dev conference, I've put together a plan for the next generation of badge firmware and software:

Basically, I wish it had an education potential, not just displayed text and sprites. I wish to amplify the fun.

Anybody wants to join?

Since a lot of people have asked about my badge and my improvements to the badgemagic app: it's the fork at https://github.com/kleinesfilmroellchen/badgemagic-android with the "clipart-import" branch. #39c3 #badgemagic #fossasia

This week in #FDroid (TWIF) is live, but boring. Yes, the cycles run and run, yes 9 new apps are now included, yes 138 more updated. But as things go, with unattended updates, it's all background noise.

What's special? It's the week of UI rewrites:
* #Auxio got #MaterialDesign
* #BadgeMagic is now #Flutter powered
* #Spotube is now #shadcn UI themed

Enjoy: https://f-droid.org/2025/03/13/twif.html

Hey @fossasia :ablobcatwave:
We noticed solder pads for a reset button on the back of the led badges... Would adding a button there omit having to remove the battery to reach the bootloader? #38C3 #badgemagic #ledbadgemagic

A parcel from @fossasia with the latest version of the Pocket Science Lab and an LED Badge arrived today. 🎉 Did I mention that I am one of the mentors guiding a very talented student who added lots of improvements to the #PSLab app as part of the #GSoC? I also used the #BadgeMagic app for the first time today. I have several neat ideas about what I could do with the PSLab, but unfortunately so little time.

Back at #GPN22 - Advertising #reCAP with my new #BadgeMagic badge https://badgemagic.fossasia.org/. See you in #ROT03 until Thursday for #UI5con and #ABAPconf https://code-connect.dev/
