And that’s not to mention the horror […]

Here’s one of those lovely “old tech new spec” projects, courtesy of hackster.io pro Martin Mander. After finding a vintage Apollo microwave detector at a car boot sale, and realising the display hole in the top was roughly the same size as a small Adafruit screen, he saw the potential to breath new life into […]

You don’t need me to tell you about the unprecedented situation that the world is facing at the moment. We’re all in the same boat, so I won’t say anything about it other than I hope you stay safe and take care of yourself and your loved ones. The other thing I will say is […]

What’s worse than a clock that doesn’t work? One that makes an “unbearably loud screeching noise” every minute of every day is a strong contender. That was the aural nightmare facing YouTuber Burke McCabe. But rather than just fix the problem, he decided, in true Raspberry Pi community fashion, to go one step further. Because […]

OK, so, we’re not really here. It is a public holiday in the UK and we are all between three and seventeen pounds of Easter chocolate and hot cross buns deep. Our teeth hurt. Anyway, we’re not sure what possessed our cute friends over at Deep Local to do this, but we like it, and […]

Recreate the arcade pool action of Data East’s Side Pocket. Raspberry Pi’s own Mac Bowley has the code. Created by Data East in 1986, Side Pocket was an arcade pool game that challenged players to sink all the balls on the table and achieve a minimum score to progress. As the levels went on, players […]
