#badgeware — Public Fediverse posts

This is a huge step forwards. Finally worked out how to over-ride the screen clearing to not-quite-black on the Tufty2350 Badge OS. Significant frame boost and the game now displays the same on the badge as in my hardware emulator. I may keep the blue background splat mode as a debug tool. #pimoroni #badgeware

Finally nailed the bugs from my refactoring of this game code. They were mainly due to hard coded assumptions about screen resolution in the original which I had not spotted. I now have it running beautifully in Pygame in any window size I want. More rocks! #retrogaming #badgeware

I'd love feedback on my latest #OpenBoardsGuide piece:

I think our editor @straithe pushed me to new heights on this one! I'd love to hear your feedback! 💗

Pimoroni Unveils Badgeware Series Featuring New E-Paper, IPS, and LED Wearable Devices

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://linuxgizmos.com/pimoroni-unveils-badgeware-series-featuring-new-e-paper-ips-and-led-wearable-devices/

Very important work by @conservancy , which tries to ensure the right of recipients of #AGPL (but more generally: *GPLs) software to strip disguised "Further restriction" clauses in free/#opensource software: https://sfconservancy.org/news/2025/jan/13/neo4j-amicus/ . It is unfortunately something that happens quite often on the market (even here in France!), where such clauses are regularly used by vendors to turn standard #FOSS licenses into #badgeware ones.
