I am streaming every Tuesday on twitch. Working on different projects. Still waiting for parts for Glasgow. On stream we are working on icebreaker-bitsy.projects. We made an FPGA mechanical keyboard. Atreus keyboard conversion with FPGA instead of an MCU. Now we are working on a Demoscene/gameconsole hardware with the icebreaker-bitsy inside. Working on a new revision of black magic probe too... to compensate for chip shortages and add some new features. @smunaut streamed the other day and got Linux to boot on the icebreaker.
