Struggling with the serial connection, maybe I'm supposed to bridge it?

Also learned that the heltec be DOES have WiFi, but the web dash is broken.

I may be able to have the heltec just report to log server over the network, but I want the RPI zero to serve my local dashboard 😅

Retro Open Source Camera Straight From The ’90s

In our modern society, we have started to take the humble camera for granted. Perhaps because of this, trendy standalone cameras have started to take off. Unfortunately, most of the time these came…

Zero Stem y convierte tu Raspberry Pi en un USB.
Si el modo gadget ya reduce el equipaje necesario a un cable USB, el Zero Stem da un paso más y elimina también ese cable.

A few weeks ago I made this little pomodoro timer for home work and it's helped out a lot with my mental and physical health by making me take breaks and moving rather than sitting at a desk all day.

I have different settings for timers and also a chill out mode that plays a calming gif and lofi tracks. Built with a pi zero and a pirate audio hat and some lines of python. Slow to boot but once running it's great.

I call it the pimodoro

#ClaudeCode on my laptop machine can, after a couple of pop-ups, see below, #ssh into my #pizero and monkey around with it..... not bad. The pi zero #lora #rnode is connected to the laptop via a hotspot that the pi zero generates to serve #reticulum #meshchat. The laptop is connected to that hotspot via a dedicated wifi dongle TP-Link Archer T3U Plus AC1300 for dual wifi https://amzn.eu/d/04oLHUGr (running nixos but works for any device with browser). #raspberrypizero info https://loramesh.org/subpages/piboxnode/build_pi_box.html

Raspberry Pi teurer, Mini-PCs die bessere Alternative?

Aufgrund der gestiegenen Kosten für den Arbeitsspeicher stiegen auch erneut die Preise für die Modelle des Raspberry Pi in die Höhe.

Finally got Brother B2100 to work on Pi zero. Had to uninstall ipp-usb so that cups can finally detect it. Why...? Had me wracking ma greys for days.

PS- Brother HL-L2300D brlaser driver.

An updated ClusterHAT v2.6 will be available shortly.

The Cluster HAT is a simple way to connect up to 4 Raspberry Pi Zero to a host Raspberry Pi using USB Gadget network and serial with I2C power control via GPIO.

The main changes are:

* The USB HUB updated to the CH334F which has a Multiple Transaction Translator (MTT).
* The (now obsolete) XRA1200P I/O expander is replaced by an ATtiny1616 which ships with firmware emulating the XRA1200P. It also has a built-in UPDI programmer for the ATtiny1616 allowing simple updates or switching to custom/more advanced firmware.
