Bought as non-working - and now it runs again! An absolute top-tier calculator from 1977, powered by a mighty 1 kB of memory. Still impressive nearly 50 years later.

How did it happen that I only just discovered #Factorio? Tried the demo… and one minute later I bought it.

I had this guy from my high school time. And still works. You can even poke machine code to RAM and execute it. And this is answer to MEM. In bytes 🤏

Just realized there’s nothing stopping me from using the #Powkiddy RGB30 not only to play #Pico8 games, but to code them too.

A carefully engineered journey back in time.

USB-C - 2014
USB-A - 1996
USB-to-Serial converter - late 1990s
HP-48 serial connector - 1991

Lumitaerra: This could be interesting game. I am making my very first steps here and it looks and feels good so far.

Paper documentation! What a pleasure after looking whole day on displays.

After many years I use a serial connection again. I had to debug it a bit to successfully connect HP-48GX to my laptop.

I can now control the heating in Zbiroh from Prague, thanks to the#Meshcore - HomeAssistant integration. Thanks a lot!

Back in the 90s, life was clearly calmer - the HP-48GX maxed out at a modest 9600bps over serial link. And somehow, that was more than enough.

Finally! I can connect #Claude desktop to my #Docker #MCP Gateway over network. Not 100% reliable, but it works!

I pinged from my home to our summer house for the first time. The #Czech #Meshcore network is better and better.
September 7, 2025 at 6:04 PM
Now I can send #Meshcore messages from my #HomeAssistant. Just a small step away from processing and replying to them in #n8n with an AI agent.

Seven or even nine hops in Meshcore network and I can still reliably communicate. It's not like disjointed monologs I had before MC.

#DarkTomb is a big adventure packed into a small box, and I can play it with my (6y & 11y) sons!

#MeshCore is what I secretly hoped Meshtastic would grow up to be. More than 300km with 2 repeaters.

Just two hours and #HP-25 bought "for parts" works again!

My MCP server for Home Assistant is finally working properly, thanks to massive support from Claude Desktop. Now I can use an n8n AI agent to control my home devices with my voice through a Shortcut on my iPhone. github.com/jrydval/MCP-...

I got an HP-28S with a malfunctioning keyboard. So I opened it and managed to fix it successfully. Now I just need to reassemble it again. Not a big deal - but unfortunately, the keyboard has lost its classic HP clickiness 😒 I’m looking for a way to get that clickiness back.

Imagine a processor that addresses 1M nibbles. Yes—nibbles, 4-bit memory “slots.” Its instructions are 5–15 nibbles long (20–60 bits) and optimized for calculators. And the HP-28C with such a processor in the photo had 2 KB RAM, yet could do symbolic math and graphs!
August 24, 2025 at 1:35 PM
A calculator where numbers, lists, arrays and programs and expressions are first-class citizens and can be stored in a variable and manipulated? HP-28S, this one from 1989! Even more fun than with well-known HP-41CX.

#ZimaOS na #Chatreey NAS Mini PC s Intel N150 a 6+1TB HD/SSD. Jako doplněk k našim domácím Synology. Určeno pro aplikace, které jsou na malých Synology pomalé. Tohle mi na tom doma zatím dává smysl.

Hledal jsem stroj, na kterém bychom mohli hrát hry pro "fantasy console" PICO-8. Je to nejen herní engine, ale i vývojový nástroj v jednom. Aplikace (tedy hlavně hry) se píší v Lua. Za těch pár babek to super soft! A Powkiddy RGB30 a ovladač 8BitDo Zero2 se k hraní fakt hodí skvěle.

Ono to nestálo moc úsilí - tedy jen iterativní komunikaci s #Claude Desktop, aby vznikl MCP server pro ovládání #HomeAssistant žárovek a zásuvek přímo z Claude Desktopu.
