The new UNBRK HEX boards have arrived! An improved version of the UNBRK, this ultra-compact prototyping board for QFP48/64/100/144 MCUs has wider trace geometry for better low-power performance, provisions for header pins, and an improved, unique 0201 prototyping grid to experiment with components reclaimed from #ewaste. #openhardware released under the CERN-OHL-S and supported by @nlnet and @NGIZero, you can find its repository at https://repo.unbina.re/unbinare/UNBRK_HEX #fosdem2026

My highlight of Fosdem26 was our panel ‘The Fediverse and the EU Digital Services Act: Solutions to the Challenges of Modern Social Media?' ✨

Thanks for giving me the possibility to speak about our @offene_netzwerke demands.

A huge thank you @jmaris for organising the panel & his excellent moderation. 👏

Thanks @alexandrageese member of the 🇪🇺 parliament, who took the time to join us & the FOSS community for this important debate over the weekend.

Thanks @mellifluousbox who shared insights & perspective of @Mastodon

Thanks @sraible & the entire organising team from the Open Source & EU Policy room. 🙏

Thanks @_elena who, as always, captured our special moments 📸

Thanks to everyone who came and sorry to those who didn't get access.

As @RichiH mentioned, Fosdem27 will be political, so we'll have more time next year.

Let us build on these meaningful events and debates ✨

You can now learn how Roto's integration with Rust works under the hood from the comfort of your own home (instead of a very crowded campus), because my FOSDEM talk has been published!

Props to the @fosdem team for publishing the videos so quickly! It's very impressive!
