Just finished talking to a class of 30 students at TU Berlin about Open Source Hardware and my work at #MNT. As a part of a class led by @jcolomb and two others. It was a trippy experience trying to describe this whole world of alternative tech to a group of people who had just tried `git` for the first time mere minutes earlier. #OSHW
On July 9th, I represented Brain Computer Enterprises ( @bce ) at the 2026 OSHWA ( @oshwassociation ) Open Healthware Conference. The video of my talk is here:

oh wow an #OSHW track point! Someone should work on integrating this into a #MNT Reform keyboard asap!
Looks like this new device from @mechasystems is actually #OSHW which is exciting to see.

bought. Bookmark. Check back in a year. lol.
That's #Nehiyawin (#Cree) for The #Devil's #Musicalinstruments.
Yes, I plan on utilizing #OSHW + #LibreSoftware everywhere possible + making available everything we can. i.e. schematics, DIY kits, etc.
Just in the research phase right now. It's cheaper to build my own #guitars to the specs I want than buy another of each. Plus, it'll be what I actually want. Nut width, scale lengths, # of strings, etc.
Building off PassinWind DIY & #MODaudio. Aiming to be a #BCorp using salvaged & biodegradable materials.
Looking for #Indigenous people to invest + work!

"With the new Jolla Phone, we’re taking TOH even further — and we’ll open source the hardware and software interface specs so anyone can design, 3D-print, or produce their own modules. Primarily we plan that the new The Other Half interface would be based on I³C." #oshw #jolla
I managed to reflow and reset the positioning of both a 80-pin and 100-pin B2B connector on some MNT RCORE* adapter boards that came misaligned from the fab in Shenzhen. @mntmn showed me how to do it last week and I did one then, and today I was able to fix two more boards and managed to do one of the harder ones that has an adapter on the reverse of the board thats in the way so you cant get full coverage on the hotplate
