Well, would you look at that! Here's #WHSPRS, the singer of last year's #pawpet show theme song, on #Austria's biggest radio station Ö3 performing his song "Fox Boy": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXpT48AXNHE

nickisdogeFirst post on mastodon but it's for a very important reason
Been waiting months to share this, so here it is!! I commissioned a puppet of the Linux mascot Xenia!!
It was bulit by timber over at Wolf Prop Creations and he did a fantastic job of getting every detail right. Pictures speak for themselves. If you have any suggestions or ideas you want to see her do please feel free to ask I'm always open to ideas!

Back home from a very productive first rehearsal for this year's #Eurofurence #Pawpet show.
Many thanks to @e_i_s_f_u_c_h_s and @Pan_H_Shiroi for driving, @cheetah_spottycat for the crash space, @TaniDaReal for breakfast!
I'm currently listening to Fox Amoore's #score for The Signal, last year's #Eurofurence #Pawpet (puppet) play — more than sixty minutes of excellent #NeoClassic #music that works even independently of the show.
A preview (prelisten?) of the #soundtrack is now out at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNGVSonx_7Y — if you like the music: the final edit will be available for purchase and streaming later this year.
And don't miss this year's play #EF27

Oh great. It's gonna be the first #eurofurence #pawpet show rehearsal next weekend and our director/producer has caught covid. Fortunately, he's vaccinated and boosted, but now we have to figure out the logistics without him being present on site. At least we'll be able to video conference him in.
hackaday unofficialReject Modernity; Return To Tamagotchi
Browsing through the recent projects on Hackaday.io, we've found this entry by [NanoCodeBug]: a single-PCB low-power trinket reviving the "pocket pet" concept while having some fun in the process! Some serious thought was put into making this device be as low-power as possible - with a gorgeous Sharp memory LCD and a low-power-friendly SAMD21, it can run for two weeks on a pair of mere AAA batteries, and possibly more given a sufficiently polished firmware. The hardware has some serious potential, with the gadget's platform lending itself equally well to Arduino or CircuitPython environments, the LCD being overclock-able to 30 FPS, mass storage support to enable pet transfer and other PC integrations, a buzzer for all of your sound needs, and an assortment of buttons to help you create mini-games never seen before. [NanoCodeBug] has been working on the hardware diligently for the past month, having gone through a fair few revisions - this is shaping up to be a very polished gadget!
There's no wonder that people love to start Tamagotchi-like projects - something special happens when an electronic device invokes the same feelings that we'd get while caring for our own pet, and this project does justice to the idea. With homebrew Tamagotchi projects, there's a trend - once hardware is finished, the software doesn't always get to a usable stage, feeling more like an afterthought. There's a hacker twist that should help us subvert this trend, however - [NanoCodeBug] has shared all sources with us in a GitHub repository! If you would like to help with the "software" part, you can start working on that with just a few breakouts. The board files are also there, if you feel like the boards are marvelous enough for your liking to go through modern-day component sourcing pains.
Hackers have been playing with the "pocket pet" concept here and there, to delightful and unconventional results. If you're on the lookout for other serious Tamagotchi recreation projects, this one takes the cake - otherwise, check out this furry Tamagotchi-like Tribble pet, disarming in its cuteness! If you're one of our mischief-minded hackers, we have two posts to keep you entertained - one about dumping ROM on newer Tamagotchi toys, and another about building a WiFi-cracking one. And when it comes to the spirit of "what we have on hand" builds, this giant desktop-sized LED matrix Tamagotchi fits the bill pretty well!
