Today is a day for some hardware tinkering. #ClockworkPi #DevTerm #PicoCalc #Linux

My current setup for digital community archiving projects:

open hardware (#raspberrypi) as interfaces. small screens to avoid sitting *behind* laptop screens (pi 400, #adafruit cyberdeck hat, #clockworkpi #devterm).

portable #scanography for creative tracing and mapping.

graph writing in #obsidian, with self-hosted livesync and other plugins (dataview, graph link types, juggl). can be combined with social media webarchiving.

this all is building on prototyping and experimentation in the cooarchi.net art-doc-archive.net #urbandermatology and #opferschicht projects, and recently in the @MuseumfZK

Dug out the DevTerm to update it and print some hard copy.

I have a similar but strange problem on both my #devterm and #uconsole that leads to me never really using them which I would like to fix! I can not seem to charge any batteries inside either device. I have tried 4 different brands. I wonder if this could be a software problem as I use a pretty custom desktop environment setup (e.g. some sort of power management applet is missing?) but it seems unlikely both machines have the same hardware issue? Has anyone encountered this? #clockworkpi

Preparing the upgrade of my #Clockworkpi #DevTerm to a #RaspberryPi Compute Module 4, using the official adapter board. The #CM4 should arrive this week.
It was nice with the CM3, but a bit slow. I hope the new core will be noticable.

Finally got my XScreenSaver hack compiled for the #DevTerm. Had some bizarre problems where it didn't like the '-root' flag, even though the code was the same as I've been using on my desktop for a year+ now.

Each line represents one process on the system. Purple for root, green for users. Width of the dashes represents memory usage. The dashes "jiggle" for processes that are active.

I like how it has a different feel for each system it runs on.

Not quite genart, but kind of #dataart.

Roaming with the #devterm again. Though the tiny built-in keyboard is convenient, this Bluetooth keyboard makes typing much faster.

I'm thinking about buying a #cyberdeck like those from #clockworkPi. I haven't bought a #raspberryPi since the #rp3. The #cm4 seems a little outdated; is it likely that a new version will be released soon? What are the chances that the #uConsole or #devTerm will be compatible with the #cm5? What about a #bananapi #computeModule?

The weekend was made for browsing Gopher on the appropriate device.

#gopher #devterm #riscv

Das Wissen, dass man sich ja selbst für die eher schwachbrüstige #riscv Variante im #DevTerm entschieden hat hilft leider nicht gegen die persönliche Ungeduld...

The Clockwork uConsole CM4-D is assembled and I captured the process. More next weekend, hopefully.

After all these years and recent new #handheldpc like the #ClockworkPi #DevTerm or #uConsole this litte embedded #Linux powered device is still the winner in comparison for me. Battery lasts more than twice as the other two, lighter, better to type on, faster in terms of real world usage b/c of bloated linux these days...
Thanks a lot @DragonBox for the awesome #openhardware #Pandora !

Just learned about the existence of an interesting #opensource #linux #hardware company called #clockworkpi: https://www.clockworkpi.com/ Makers of #uconsole, #devterm and #gameshell.
