PineNote Week Two mini-update. I'm just using the device now. It doesn't feel like a shiny new device anymore (post honeymoon) but I'm still enamored (to stretch the metaphor). I have been using it as a reading and writing device for the most part, single function at a time, and I'm quite happy with it.
I'm not really doing any application switching and using it as a full-Linux device (which it is)... BUT, I'm going away on a 5 day trip and considering just taking the PineNote (with a wireless keyboard) instead of a laptop. Maybe I should and report on that experience!? Bottom-line, that thought doesn't make me nervous (I'll get it on my Tailscale network and leave it without a lock-screen maybe? Taking suggestions!)
If you haven't seen the PineNote overview and rough edges videos, they still hold true after two weeks of usage. I don't generally worry about charging it day to day, aside from that still no other thoughts on battery yet.
Is anybody going to #OpenHardware Summit in Edinburgh to run a table, who would agree to take #LILKA with them and give it some exposure? Info here: https://autkin.net/lilka/

Ploopy Classic 2 is an upgraded trackball mouse available as a DIY kit or fully assembled
Ploopy has made a name for itself over the past few years by offering a line of customizable trackball mice with open source designs that allow you 3D print or modify your own device.
Since launching its first trackball in 2019, Ploopy has followed up with several additional designs for different trackball styles. Last year the company even introduced a TrackPad. Now Ploopy is going back to […]

The Tech Pizza Monday meetup yesterday was so successful that we’re doing it again, you guessed it, next Monday! Come for the pizza and stay for the tech discussions. Got an open hardware demo? Cool! Those are the best! The more you believe in free and open software and hardware in service of a free and open society, the more you’re welcome to join us. The location is Victory Cafe, 440 Bloor St. W., Toronto, ON. The start time is 6 PM.
RSVP is not required, or even encouraged, frankly. But we definitely it when you do. We will ask to indulge is by checking you in with the Luma QR code, if only because we enjoy scanning QR codes. #Toronto #tech #pizza #OpenHardware https://lu.ma/hgja54m1

Update on Liberux Nexx Prototypes
After a major delay due to the Chinese New Year and an issue in production, we had to look for a new manufacturer for our prototypes. Fortunately, we found a company in Spain that will take over the production.
In the meantime, we took the opportunity to make some redesigns to the board. The new prototypes will arrive in the coming days, and we’re excited to share more updates soon.
Cheers!

I made another PineNote video to address the "rough edges" I mentioned in my previous video: https://makertube.net/w/w3MicEqLiVrpE1FcAvKKae
TL;DW: minor inconveniences, overcome by config and awareness.
Using PineNote as a "laptop" with a Bluetooth keyboard is probably the next thing I cover. Let me know what kinds of questions you might have around that use case.
