Once you go down the retro gaming rabbit hole, that's it, you're not getting out without putting together your own gaming console. It all began with my hacked PSP, which I was running emulators on. Then I wanted to run them on my big screen...

Now that we have decked out our Lulzbot Taz 6 3D Printer with a really nice looking acrylic enclosure, I'm just about ready to turn on some serious 3D printing work. But before I dive into that endless pool of fun, it's a good time to take ...

This project started because I wanted to know the signal strength of the Wifi in various places around my house. I had set up a Pi Zero as a simple watering system controller. It would switch a solenoid on and off based on a 7 day schedule;...

It was a dark and stormy night, and Pix was bumbling around with nonsense again.
I was thinking of building a patchbay for simple but configurable home networking (something I may still pursue). I figured that I could use jumper wires to ...
