Very cool to see the #mangopi - a potential #lowcost #competitor to the #raspberrypi #pizero https://hackaday.com/2022/04/01/mangopi-.. Seems like the #opensource #effort for the #allwinner in the #linux #kernel is a little bit lacking though.
I like that people are #investigating #lowcost #waveform #generators https://hackaday.com/2022/03/05/low-cost.. This brings #electronics to more people!
Man I really want one of these: https://shop.m5stack.com/products/m5pape.. It's a *very* #lowcost #eink #display with a little processing power. It could be a way to build my " #linuxpda " (although this thing will *never* run #linux ). I was also wondering about running #java on it, but it looks ultra complicated to get a small #jvm #ported ... It would cost $150 NZD delivered and I already don't #utilize my #pine #pinetab enough...
I feel like the next biggest #medical #revolution will be a quick test for micronutrients, specifically a quick #lowcost #blood / #urine test: https://ourworldindata.org/diet-affordab.. Many people in the world are literally #starving to death without even realising it... Your body will do its best to break down what it has to meet the needs, including using #organs - for example a #protein #deficiency will eventually mean your body eats your own heart. This is something that can be easily detected...
