#cybiko — Public Fediverse posts

When I was younger, I really wanted one of these (and a bunch of cool Hackers style friends to talk to) - anyone done a #Meshtastic #cybiko reboot?

Oh no. The Cybiko can communicate with the DECtalk device, which now also speaks Meshtastic. What have I done.

Он умер… и его даже ни разу не включали :(

На фото уникальный КПК, разработанный по большей части в России для американского рынка - Cybiko Xtreme от основателя компании ABBYY Давида Яна. Устройство отличалось тем, что для коммуникации использовало не GSM, а создавала некое подобие меш-сети, которое работало на дальности примерно в 150м и позволяло превратить несколько кварталов в Фейсбук.

Anyone interested in an old #cybiko ?

At github.com/EXL/2048 you can find some interesting ports of the classic 2048 game For example, for #SegaGenesis / #MegaDrive, #Cybiko, various mobile phones or... C-Pen pen scanner #retrodev #gamedev #programming #retrogaming #homebrewgame

Classic blog post:

☆Cybiko, Amazon Ring, and Briar☆

What do a short-lived early 2000s teen-centric PDA, a novelty doorbell, and a privacy focused messaging app all have in common? Clearly they're all intended for very different markets.
The answer, of course, must then be universal. And that answer is network redundancy.

I'd love to see something like a super cheap version of the #blackberry or even the early 2000s kids communicator the #Cybiko that used LoRA to provide a world-wide mesh to tell the techbros to go suck an egg.

Is there something like the #cybiko based on #arduino or #esp32's?

I wish there where a low-cost handheld that can transmit messages via radio like that today

@chadgoode Ok, I barely remember the #Cybiko. My question is couldn't someone create a device that uses #LoRa + an #ESP32 or #RasberryPiCompute + an E-ink screen + Blackberry style keyboard + wifi to LoRa hub (also out of an esp32 or the like) that then connects to Mastodon?

I was today years old when I discovered this existed thanks to #xkcd .
Imagine combining #cybiko with #xmpp :xmpp:

Cybiko was way ahead of it’s time

I did this scan of the #Cybiko Classic box art a little while ago. Enjoy the early 2000s electronics nostalgia. A #retrogaming handheld I am very fond of, and cannot wait to get back to hacking on. I really should get back to work on my disassembler/emulator for it.

Really missing some gamees from my old Cybiko Xtreme today. Blazing Boards, Lost in Labyrinth, the one with the little knight guy...there were a lot of really fun ones #Cybiko
