Had a blast tinkering the new Arduino Uno Q with David Groom at Guangzhou Maker Faire! Qualcomm-powered, Linux + MCU hybrid 🤯 such an interesting direction for future maker boards. We also show how Openterface Mini-KVM made working with its Linux desktop easy!

AI in media, as seen here, sparks innovation but must blend with human emotion rooted in truth. Is it really because people hesitate to trust AI? How can we innovate responsibly to merge AI with traditional flows? www.theverge.com/news/656245/...

Funny enough, I tested XTool laser on a 3D-printed box I made earlier, and the quote on it felt so fitting: "A strange new light can be as frightening as the dark." – Dolores, Westworld. Also perfect for rapid PCB prototyping and so slick!
