  1. The #zeST Atari ST FPGA implementation is absolutely awesome. Running it on a MicroPhase Z7-Lite from Aliexpress and it's just perfect. Additionally, I have a #DeskHop built up that I connected it to which means I now have an Atari ST connected to one of my main workstation monitors that uses the same mouse and keyboard so switching inbetween them is just seamless.

    Highly recommended setup for #Atari ST retro usage ;)

  2. Насколько ПК удобнее смартфона

    Ноутбуки со свободной прошивкой Libreboot Вот и выросло первое поколение «продвинутых пользователей смартфонов», которые никогда не работали за компьютером. Сейчас они заканчивают университет и начинают искать работу. Люди вытворяют на смартфоне удивительные вещи. Но не понимают, насколько убоги эти устройства на фоне полноценного компьютера. Смартфон действительно незаменим за пределами дома или офиса, в походе или поездке: для навигации, фото- и видеосъёмки, для срочных сообщений и др. Но при наличии нормального компьютера использовать смартфон по большей части глупо.

  3. Built some Deskhop v1.1 PCBs from Hrvoje Cavrak:

    Deskhop is a simple device that helps you switch the input devices between two computers easily if they are dragged from a window, by utilizing two Raspberry Pi Picos.

    This was harder to solder comparing to v1.0, since this has more connectors, and I did solder by hand, using iron, but it turned out nicely.

    I printed the PCB at JLCPCB.

    This is working nicely so far!

  4. (Note: The CDN issue has been fixed and the video is now playable).

    Preface: I cannot take credit for the project shown in the attached video and photo; 100% of the credit belongs to Hrvoje Čavrak who created the DeskHop project (github.com/hrvach/deskhop)

    Do you use two computers at your desk, but share a single keyboard/pointing device between them? Do you use some sort of switch to do that, or worse, move cables between them, or even worse, do you use some sort of software solution like Synergy, Barrier, or Universal Control (macOS only)? Do you wish you had a better option? Guess what, you do!

    DeskHop is a small device composed of two Raspberry Pi Pico boards plus some additional components and some amazing open source software. You plug your keyboard and pointing devices into its inputs, and plug its outputs into your two computers, and... that's it! It just works, as you move the pointing device and the pointer moves to the edge of one screen/computer, it pops over to the edge of the other screen/computer and the keyboard moves with it. It's truly magical.

    I forked the project and made some small changes to the PCB so that I could get a 10-unit production run made by a Chinese PCB company, and the boards arrived last week; the photo is one of those boards. Nearly all of those 10 boards are spoken for already, but I could do this again if people really wanted them (total cost including USPS shipping in the USA is about US$35).

  5. I just want to let everybody know that I absolutely _love_ the #Deskhop project.

    Made one for myself and eight others for friends.
