@peteronion.bsky.social is it too early to ask if you are organising another RC2014 Assembly this year? I really enjoyed the one last year and I would love to attend again.

Also, how is your expansion module coming along? I've not seen any videos about the hex pad for a while.
I did, and the optional programmer as well. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet, but I'm hoping for some serendipity once it's all put together.

Testing out my #RC2014 Orton 3C Digital IO module on my #RC2014 Picasso.
The power light is blinding, so I may need to swap the resistor for a bigger value like the numbered LEDs.
Apart from that, itβs all looking good for both input and output.
No, but it did have rubber keys.

This is a very good article.
Enabling much more active travel and discouraging driving is a public health intervention that will reduce the load on the NHS.
Iβm local as well. We had Miles Jenner, the head brewer, do ours. It was very interesting and entertaining. He knows how to tell a good story.
