Last orders for the Zilog Z80. A true and incredible workhorse. Lasted 48 years and large pieces of the world have them hidden away, doing their work. What a story of success. techspot.com/news/102684-zil… . I loved working with that chip. Amazing design, super practical long term workhorse.
The legendary Zilog Z80 CPU is being discontinued after nearly 50 years

The iconic IC device, developed by Federico Faggin, will soon be phased out, and interested parties only have a few months left to place their orders before...

Do you own a Comsol USB-A/C GaN wall charger from Officeworks? Check if it's recalled. The plug on affected units can break off, exposing internal wires & posing risk of serious injury or death from electric shock or electrocution. Stop use immediately. bit.ly/3T9rt2J

It’s Penguin Awareness Day today! Not to be confused with International Penguin Day. Can one have too many penguin days? Absolutely not. And here’s why. (And check my insta or 🕰️ pages for the full video with some penguin legends)

First #TinyWATCH orders are getting ready to ship - Here are the first 8, with cases currently being printed for the rest. Shipping firmware is still being refined and I'll likely re-flash these all a few more times before they are packed! Exciting times! #maker #electronics

The Erect-crested penguins on the Antipodes Island are now mostly on chicks. The males stay with their offspring 24/7 while mum does the feeding. And the guarding of the chicks happens for a reason...

As an experiment I'll do a giveaway of 6 of my Font & Hole-sizer rulers. Reply to enter the drawing. Retweet to get four extra chances to win in the drawing. I randomly select the winners next Sunday at noon CET. I know it's a bit cheesy but free stuff is free stuff ;-)
