@PaulStoffregen's #Teensy #microcontrollers offer some of the greatest performance available to #makers, hobbyists, and professionals, and are used in all manner of projects, from #synths to custom #keyboards to entire #RetroComputers. But before you can craft fabulous projects like these, you need to learn the basics of this outrageously capable #DevBoard. That’s why we teamed up with #SparkFun to publish a new, updated "Getting Started with Teensy" guide! 🧠✨

The #M5Stack #CardputerZero is chock full of delightful #hardware and interfaces, yet astonishingly expandable, making it an ideal pocket #Linux computer for #makers, #hackers, and #security researchers. Read more of my initial hands-on impressions on #OpenBoardsGuide:

Crowd Supply's annual flagship event, #Teardown2026, was the biggest and most ambitious yet! This celebration of #OpenSource #HardwareHacking took place in #CrowdSupply’s home base of Portland, and featured 41 talks, workshops, and skill shares, 47 demo tables and installations, plus over 450 delightful attendees. Satellite events included food trucks, a hangout at the Ctrl-H #hackerspace, and a live performance by musicians and sound #hackers! Read my recap here:

who all is coming to #OpenSauce? come find me or @alexglow to nab one of these beautiful holographic #DayGlowShow stickers (her design of course)! 📛✨

there's a few days until the event, so why not use that time to catch up on our latest episode, about BRAINS/#EEG/#Biohacking! 🧠⚡

one of my favourite #books from yesterday's fantastic JLC #Book Sale haul is "#Computers, Pattern, #Chaos, and Beauty — #Graphics from an Unseen World" by #CliffordPickover, a 1990 publication full of fascinating algorithms, techniques, and images! 😍💾🖼️

Every year, @oshwassociation convenes with several hundred #hardware #hackers, #academics, and enthusiasts at a carefully-selected international destination for the #OpenHardware Summit. A collection of #talks, #workshops, exhibits, and satellite activities, #OHS provides an annual appraisal of the state of #OpenSource hardware, while sharing a glimpse at what’s next.

Couldn't make it to Germany for this year's event? We've you covered with a full recap!

happy #TowelDay to those who celebrate! 🪐👍

day one of #OHS2026 has been a relentless onslaught of brilliant talks and ideas! can't join in person? watch amazing speakers like @maltman23 (pictured here) live or later at https://www.youtube.com/live/naQz1KVqQF0 🤘🔓🤘

welcome to #Berlin! just got a €60 fine for having slightly the wrong #train ticket after falling to get the app to work... 😭

We saw #SonsOfDetroit at the #Cinetopia #FilmFestival in #AnnArbor on Thursday and were completely blown away! Local folks, there's another chance to see it, tonight at the #DIA:

"Part love letter, part detective story, a white man raised as a cousin in a black family reunites with his cousin to unravel the tangled story of a family, a block, and the golden age of 1970s #Detroit that made them."

#German friends (especially all of those I made during #39c3! 💗), can you recommend a place to stay during this year's #OpenHardware Summit (May 23rd & 24th), near TU #Berlin? 🥺💭🏨

first stop: #SlickDisc music in #Trenton, Michigan! 🤘🎧🤘

I would be incredibly appreciative of feedback on this review of the #Arduino #Nesso N1:

https://chaos.social/deck/@index@openboardsguide.com/116341246577883666

I'm launching a new #DevBoards news and #reviews site and trying to establish conventions like the "What I love..." segment and it would be so helpful to hear what folks think. If you could share your thoughts and boost it to your audience for wider feedback, that would be amazing! 💗
