In dieser neuen Retrospektive-Folge taucht Micha gemeinsam mit Attila tief in die Welt von Blaze Entertainment und deren Evercade-Universum ein. Während die Gaming-Welt fast vollständig ins digitale abgewandert ist, setzt Evercade auf ein mutiges Gegenmodell: Physische Cartridges inklusive liebevoll gestalteter, farbiger Anleitungen. Wir besprechen das gesamte Hardware-Lineup, vom neuen Handheld EXP-R über die Heimkonsole VS-R bis hin zu den charmanten Super Pockets und der imposanten Alpha-Miniarcade. Ist das haptische Erlebnis von „Plug and Play“ heute noch zeitgemäß oder nur ein teures Gadget für Sammler?Attila ordnet für uns ein, warum Geräte wie das Super Pocket echte „Handschmeichler“ sind, während das EXP-R mit seinem genialen Tate-Modus für vertikale Arcade-Shooter punktet. Doch wir sparen auch nicht mit Kritik: Wir diskutieren offen über Hardware-Schwächen wie zickige Akkus, instabile Firmware und die teilweise fummelige Verpackung. Ob der riesige Katalog aus über 80 Cartridges mit Klassikern von Namco, Atari und Neo Geo den Kauf rechtfertigt und warum der Verzicht auf den „digitalen Überfluss“ der eShops eine ganz neue Art des Spielgenusses ermöglicht, erfahrt ihr in dieser ausführlichen Analyse.

Ladyada: "I've only had OpenClaw installed on this Raspberry Pi 5 for a couple of days, but boy, have we burned through a lot of tokens and learned a lot. Including what I think is a really fun improvement in my development process: “Agentic test-driven firmware development.” I've used LLMs for writing code as a sort of pair-programming setup, where I dictate exactly what I want done. But this is the first time that I'm giving full access to the hardware to the LLMs and letting Claude Opus 4.5 as a manager to control Codex subagents. Not only does it parse the datasheet for the register map and functionality, Claude also comes up with a full development and test plan, writes the library, tests it on existing hardware, and then also works up a test suite that covers all of the hardware registers to make sure that the library is exercising the entire chip capability. For example, here I give it an APDS-9999 color sensor and a Neopixel ring and tell it, “hey use the Neopixel ring to verify that we're really reading red, green, and blue data properly from the sensor,” and it will do the whole thing completely autonomously… no humans involved! I still review the final code and ensure the tests genuinely validate the functionality, not just take shortcuts. There is a phenomenon known as "reward hacking" (also called "specification gaming"). The model may optimize for passing tests as a metric, rather than ensuring the code truly works as intended. So far, the results have been excellent... no surprise, since these LLMs are trained on Adafruit open-source GitHub repositories!"

In episode 102, we are joined by Ryan, lead developer of the Mujina firmware, for a debrief on Telehash #3 live demo and the momentum around the 256 Foundation's fully open Bitcoin mining stack. We walk through the sous vide miner demo that cooked ribeyes while mining on three Ember One hashboards with custom water blocks, controlled by our Libre board prototype running Mujina and pointed at Hydra Pool; an eight-hour, live-streamed showcase of the entire open stack working together. We reflect on why releasing everything on GitHub from day one matters, how modularity in Mujina accelerates chip and board innovation, and why open tooling lowers the barrier for builders from hobbyists to mega-miners. We dig into industry reactions from NEMS, interest from ASIC manufacturers, and the business case for open firmware at fleet scale. We discuss roadmap polish for Mujina (APIs, multipool support, power targets), Hydra Pool enhancements, HashScope share verification, and how open primitives enable better miner management, heating applications, and novel products. We shout out community contributors and hash renters who powered Telehash, preview Heat Punk Summit workshops (including Canaan's home-mining session), and make the call for companies to support 256 Foundation grants that are already delivering outsized ROI for the entire mining ecosystem.

professorjrod@gmail.comPrinters and multifunction devices are more than just simple office tools—they're intricate systems combining optical, thermal, mechanical, and networked computing components. In this episode, we decode printer technology and its critical role in business operations, highlighting how these devices impact IT skills development and technology education. From unboxing to output, we explore the key decisions that keep your pages moving smoothly while safeguarding your data. Whether you're preparing for CompTIA exams or seeking practical IT certification tips, this episode offers valuable insights into managing printer technology within your IT infrastructure.Instructional Downloadable Resource Guidehttps://www.professorjrod.com/downloadsWe start with fit-for-purpose buying—matching speed, DPI, trays, duplexing, and duty cycle to real workloads—then move to placement and environment, where airflow, humidity, and power quality determine whether a fleet runs smoothly or jams at 4:58 p.m. Firmware strategy matters more than most shops admit: back up configs, schedule updates, and never interrupt a flash. On connectivity, we compare USB simplicity against Ethernet and Wi‑Fi flexibility, then layer in drivers and PDLs—PCL for speed, PostScript for precision, XPS for Windows pipelines—plus the color logic of CMYK. You'll hear clean exam clues for the A+ and practical tells for real-world triage, like when a single user's issue is just a preference and not a driver.Inside the box, we translate the seven-step laser process into actionable troubleshooting: charging, exposing, developing, transferring, fusing, and cleaning each leave fingerprints—smears, ghosting, or blank pages—that point straight to the failing part. We round out the print tech tour with inkjet (thermal vs piezo), thermal printers (direct vs transfer), and impact units for multipart forms. Then we head to the network, where DHCP reassignments, wrong ports, and spooler crashes derail entire floors. Print servers centralize power and risk, and mobile/cloud printing adds discovery quirks and new attack surfaces.Security is the blind spot: printers hold disks, address books, and cached jobs. We lay out the must-haves—PIN or badge release, secure erase, firmware signing, role-based access, and segmentation—so confidential pages don't land in the wrong tray and default passwords don't become open doors. We finish with ethics, because technicians handle sensitive data and trust is the real SLA. If you want sharper troubleshooting, stronger security, and higher A+ exam confidence, this one's a field guide you'll use tomorrow.Enjoyed the deep dive?

In this episode, we go deep on the shifting landscape of Bitcoin mining hardware, open-source firmware, and why trustless stacks matter for miners big and small. Fresh off the local Bitcoin++ in Durham, we recap the vibe: a developer-heavy crowd, real collaboration between devs and miners, and our announcement of the Mujina developer preview—an open-source mining firmware now publicly accessible for hands-on testing. We discuss practical demo plans for the HeatPunk Summit, creative power ideas (from inverter gens to EVs like the F-150 Lightning/Cybertruck), and what it takes to stage quiet, controlled mining demos. From secure boot cat-and-mouse games to aftermarket control boards, we unpack why closed firmware is antithetical to Bitcoin's trust-minimized ethos, the history from CGMiner and GPL violations, and how LibriBoard, Hydro Pool, and Start9 packaging can radically reduce friction for at-home and pro operators. We also cover Stratum v2 progress, open-source community wins (Home Assistant integrations, config-first setups), and tangible on-ramps for developers—including free Auradine chips from 256 Foundation for reverse engineering and Bitaxe-based Mujina dev workflows. We close with a candid segment on Freedom Tech, the chilling effects of targeting software developers, and why building and supporting open-source tools is essential for a free society.

Josh talks to Richard Hughes about the world of firmware. We cover how Richard's journey from developing the ColorHug led to the creation of the Linux Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS), changing how firmware updates are managed for nearly every Linux user. Updating firmware has always been dicey, and on Linux it used to be impossible. Richard helps us understand how this all works and how we can all help out.

Still in the spooky zone, this week Jules and Madeleine take a look at the fascinating phenomenon of folklore being created in real time. There have always been parallels between technology and superstition, magic and science. As technology moves further into the non tangible realm of digital space, ghosts and other entities have begun to echo this shift. So what exactly is the part that folklore plays in this? Are all our ghosts going digital? And why do such disparate subjects actually go hand in hand? Find out in this week's episode. Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

The panel dives into the launch of the Vision Pro M5, iPad Pro M5, and 14-inch MacBook Pro M5, exploring how Apple's latest chip is showing up everywhere—from spatial computing to creative workflows. Marty admits to pre-ordering the new Vision Pro while having blood drawn, leading to the episode's funniest moment (“They took my blood, I gave Apple my money”). Jeff immediately volunteers to be Marty's “no-good son” to inherit the old headset, sparking laughter about “device reallocation” policies. Discussion turns to the Vision Pro's new dual-knit band and Hover headset accessory, which redistributes weight to the crown of the head. Dave likens it to “flipping up granny sunglasses,” while Ben compares it to wearing “night-vision goggles.” Chuck's wise counsel: “Wait for the M5 Pro—patience beats payment.” MacBook Pro M5 specs are examined in detail—10-core CPU, 10-core GPU, 24-hour battery life (cue the joke: “if you never touch it”), and no Wi-Fi 7 support. Marty shares his “trade-up philosophy” while Jeff laments his $800 trade-in offer: “It lost that much value that fast?” Chuck recommends Apple's refurb store, calling it “the best deal Apple doesn't advertise.” The crew also explores the iPad Pro M5, agreeing that performance gains are meaningful but most users won't need to upgrade. Jill admits her iPad mostly serves as a “sleep-aid game console,” while Eric says Vision Pro has cut into his tablet use entirely. Other highlights: • Vision Pro M5's 120 Hz refresh rate and better cooling. • No Wi-Fi 6E bump—for $3,500, that drew audible groans. • AI readiness of the M5 chip sparks debate on whether Apple even has an “AI strategy.” • Apple TV's rebranding from “TV+” to “Apple TV,” which the panel calls “peak confusion.” • AirPods Pro 3 flight test: Marty's seal so tight it caused ear “pop-pop-pop” moments, while Dave says noise-canceling on planes “kills all sound, including your will to chat.” Topics and Links Breaking News Apple Debuts New iPad Pro With M5 Chip, Faster Charging, and More Apple Announces New 14-Inch MacBook Pro With M5 Chip Apple Updates Vision Pro With M5 Chip, Dual Knit Band, and 120Hz Support Here's Everything Apple Announced Today In Touch With Vision Pro this week. visionOS 26.1 Beta 3 Release Notes | Apple Developer Documentation Apple Updates Vision Pro With M5 Chip, Dual Knit Band, and 120Hz Support

Magewell's story from USB Capture to all-in-one production: how a user-first approach powers pro AV, broadcast, and streaming—plus where devices like Director One, Director Mini, and NDI converters fit in real-world workflows. Marc Aflalo sits down with Mike Nann of MVD (Mobile Video Devices)—Magewell's exclusive North American distributor—to trace Magewell's evolution and what makes their gear stick in both broadcast/media production and pro AV. Mike shares his 25+ years in video tech (from Digital Rapids' early Olympic streaming with Windows Media) and explains how Magewell moved from OEM engineering (2011) to its own lineup by finding and fixing the “gaps” between signals, software, streams, and screens. You'll hear how USB Capture popularized true plug-and-play ingest for HDMI/SDI; why the pandemic accelerated adoption; and how the company designs products around “technical invisibility” for pro AV—where the best gear disappears into the workflow—while still giving producers deep control. We dig into Ultra Stream appliances for one-button streaming, NDI encoders/decoders that automatically match displays, and feature-rich tools like Director One (and Director Mini) that scale from touch-friendly switching to Stream Deck/Companion control. Mike also talks pricing philosophy (reliable, mid-range value), firmware-driven improvements shaped by customer feedback (including an active user community), and how Magewell weighs new tech like OMT (Open Media Transport): not chasing “first,” but shipping when the ecosystem is ready and reliability is proven. He closes with advice for AV entrepreneurs: know your strengths, partner smartly (examples: Teleycam cameras, Miri + Speedify bonding), and keep listening to users. 00:00 – Marc sets the stage: story over specs 00:36 – Meet MVD & Mike's background (Digital Rapids, early Olympic streaming) 02:28 – Magewell's shift from OEM to its own product lines 03:52 – USB Capture: true plug-and-play ingest for HDMI/SDI 04:50 – How the pandemic accelerated capture & conferencing use cases 05:23 – Bridging gaps across signals, software, and screens 06:48 – Broadcast vs. Pro AV: different needs, same UX focus 08:31 – “Technical invisibility” and the easy-button mindset 09:32 – Designing user-first—even for power producers 12:03 – Director One/Director Mini: touch workflow + pro integrations 13:54 – From UltraStream simplicity to deeper control when needed 16:11 – Competing on reliability, UX, and plug-and-play (not race-to-cheap) 17:37 – NDI converters that auto-match displays (EDID awareness) 18:24 – Pricing context: durable, mid-range value; long service life 21:13 – Firmware updates shaped by user feedback and community 23:35 – Evaluating OMT: benefits vs. ecosystem maturity 26:23 – Advice to builders: play to strengths, partner, listen 27:29 – Where to learn more: Magewell & MVD Like what you heard?

Welcome to your weekly UAS News Update. We have four stories for you this week: SiFly sets world record for endurance, Inspired Flight releases a new controller, FreeFly Fest, and a man arrested in Florida for allegedly crashing a drug-loaded drone into someone's house.First up this week, California-based drone manufacturer SiFly has officially set a new Guinness World Record for flight endurance. Their Q12 prototype quadcopter completed a flight lasting an incredible 3 hours and 11 minutes. This absolutely shatters the previous record for a small, electrically powered multi-rotor drone by almost a full hour. The record-setting flight took place on July 26th in California's Salinas Valley and was certified by an official Guinness adjudicator on-site.Inspired Flight Technologies has just launched a new ground control station, the GS-ONE. This is a rugged, handheld controller aimed squarely at professional operators in commercial, industrial, and government sectors. It's designed to integrate seamlessly with Inspired Flight's own IF800 Tomcat and IF1200 UAS platforms.The GS-ONE features a 7-inch, glove-compatible touchscreen that boasts 2,000 NITs of brightness. That's going to be fantastic for a sunlight-readable experience out in the field. It has an NDAA-compliant 2.4 GHz radio with up to 6 miles of range and hot-swappable batteries that provide up to 5 hours of continuous runtime. The whole thing is housed in an IP55-rated enclosure for durability. On the inside, it's running Android 14 on a Qualcomm QCS6490 processor with 8 gigs of RAM and 128 gigs of storage. It's also packed with connectivity, including LTE, WiFi 6, and Bluetooth 5.2. We visited FreeFly for their yearly partner's event in Washington State. It was packed with announcements, including: Alta X Gen 2, A Firmware update for first Gen Alta X, FreeFly Platforms are back on Blue List, Several Astro Max upgrades, Ember toolbox for FreeFly's high speed cameras, A 1,000,000 lumen spotlight light called the Flying Sun, and even more cool LiDAR and camera tech. Also at the show was a Verizon demo where they flew a FreeFly Astro Max from both Florida and from Alaska using 4 and 5G. Pilot Institute is hosting three separate workshops. On September 2nd, join me, Vic Moss, Amy Wiegand, and Jared Janacek for a deep dive into the regulations, technology, and business strategies that are shaping the future of the drone industry.Then on September 3rd, I'm personally teaching a workshop on how to build your drone business. And on September 4th, Jared will teach you his professional mapping process. Spots for each day are limited and they are filling up. Go to pilotinstitute.com/cuav to see the details and secure your seat.A story that falls squarely into the "what not to do with your drone" category. Out in Lutz, Florida, a 49-year-old man allegedly crashed his drone into a residential home. According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, the drone was allegedly carrying multiple bags of methamphetamine and fentanyl. In Post Flight, our show where we share more of our opinions, we'll be talking about these stories along with even more nuggets we've found in the Part 108 NPRM and Ag Eagle, who launched a new multispectral camera. We'll see you on Monday for the live and for Post Flight in the premium community! https://www.commercialuavnews.com/inspired-flight-introduces-new-ground-control-stationhttps://www.fox13news.com/news/video-drone-carrying-drugs-crashes-home-suspect-arrestedhttps://dronelife.com/2025/08/20/siflys-q12-breaks-drone-endurance-barriers/https://freeflysystems.com/

Connor Rigby joins the Elixir Wizards to talk about Blue Heron BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) support for Elixir apps. Blue Heron implements the BLE specs in pure Elixir, leveraging binary pattern matching and concurrent message processing to handle Bluetooth protocols. Unlike most solutions that require C ports or NIFs, Blue Heron runs entirely in user space, so it works seamlessly in both Nerves-based embedded projects and (eventually) desktop Elixir applications. We discuss how Nerves development differs from building Phoenix apps. Connor shares challenges he's experienced with hardware compatibility, where some chips only partially implement the spec, and he discusses the surprisingly deep (but sometimes incomplete) world of BLE device profiles. His tip for anyone entering the BLE space: read the official spec instead of trusting secondhand blog posts. Tools like Nerves LiveBook give you hands-on examples, so you can get a BLE prototype running on a Raspberry Pi and your phone in no time. Key topics discussed in this episode: Blue Heron origins and “bird” naming convention BLE vs. Bluetooth Classic: core differences Pure Elixir implementation—no C dependencies Binary pattern matching for packet parsing Hardware transport options: UART, SPI, USB, SDIO GenServer patterns in Nerves vs. Phoenix Linux requirement and power-consumption trade-offs GATT (Generic Attribute Table) implementation patterns SQLite integration for Nerves apps Hardware chip quirks and spec compliance Manufacturer-specific commands and workarounds BLE device profiles and spec gaps Security Management Profile (SMP) for encryption Device connection and pairing workflows Web vs. embedded development differences Where to get started: hardware recommendations and docs Links mentioned: https://github.com/ConnorRigby/ https://github.com/blue-heron/ https://nerves-project.org/ BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BluetoothLowEnergy https://developer.apple.com/ibeacon/ https://learnyousomeerlang.com/building-otp-applications Linux https://www.linux.org/ HCI (Host Controller Interface) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostcontrollerinterface Circuits UART Library https://hexdocs.pm/circuitsuart/readme.html SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) https://github.com/elixir-circuits/circuitsspi SDIO (Secure Digital Input Output https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SDIO Raspberry Pi https://www.raspberrypi.com/ Coral SoM Dev Board https://coral.ai/products/dev-board/ BeagleBone Single-Board Linux Computer https://www.beagleboard.org/boards/beaglebone-black https://www.bluetooth.com/bluetooth-resources/intro-to-bluetooth-gap-gatt/ Genservers https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/1.12/GenServer.html https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.html https://github.com/elixir-sqlite/ectosqlite3 https://github.com/nerves-livebook/nerveslivebook Special Guest: Connor Rigby.
Inevitably, open eyes always seem to turn upward. Our faith and our refusal to bow are weapons forged in darkness. The American air industry is now in chaos. Combine airlines, aviation, national security, and the heavy infiltration of Chinese risk. Maintenance scares and hub battles. Where are the reasonable fares? The US Govt buys tickets in bulk? Huh? Looks like money laundering. Eliminate brokers for a start. Operating on a debt based closed structure. Amy Klobuchar is up to her neck in all of this. Firmware is very hard to inspect. Counterfeit avionics is a real threat. When pilots can't override the AI. Let's build a national aircraft security program. All domestic flights need more scrutiny. Chip technology has risks too. China (Taiwan) produces 90% of high level chips. Yes to mandatory source audits. Flight ready seals and instant response protocols. Software components are hackable. Compromised chips are everywhere. All airlines are leased. Even the F35 has Chinese components. We need a Federal National Airline Program. Why not lease at cost and back it with the Defense Dept? Lower costs, safer skies. Restore jobs plus national security. We should no longer out source the wings we fly on. Not when our families are on board.
