I’ve been scrolling around and I’m wondering what sort of projects everyone here is working on? I have not worked on anything in awhile but I wanna see more projects and maybe that’ll change haha

    Open Phone (currently on hold, the webpage deteriorated over time) a Nokia phone as if it was made today. (usb-c, arm processor, 5g, 1tb sd, rss reader, podcasts, 2fa, web radio, fediverse client, offline lexicon, offline translator, weather, music, maps only showing a compass with directions, signal messenger)

    An Arcade Machine built on top of a sensible Linux base running on a raspberry. The goal is to bring indie games in cafés and bars as I am super bummed out about arcades not being a thing :(

      those are both really cool projects, I’m always happy to see people make hardware that’s actually a positive to humanity

        Yea, im kinda sick of what the tech industry has become. I do believe that tech and even the internet can have a net positive for humanity and I don’t mean it in the early silicon valley “making the world a better place thanks to my compression algorithm” sort of way. I does have the power to bring humans together and not stand in between as well as be an extension of your brain and not a replacement.
