BTW, I've been using it as a streaming radio station player. The speakers are not great/not terrible but it gives a vintage radio quality to it which is charming. I wrote my first Python program that uses curses to make a console driven radio player ๐Ÿ˜Ž It lasted 7 hours 47 minutes on one charge (with the display on!) using 2 x 3000mAh 18650s. #Cyberdeck #RaspberryPi #Maker #3Dprint

  • I created a game pad "snap-in" that replaces the keyboard, thanks to a donor 8bitdo Zero 2 Bluetooth game pad. Works great with retroarch!
