Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

— Steve Jobs

So amazing! Very proud to have been an early supporter of @pagexrage and @lightbynyoka, and to see Paige and Nyoka featured on one of my favourite channels! (Also @LinusTech - have you thought of doing a science education channel?!)

WE DID IT! Our video with @LinusTech is live today on Youtube. Check out the most glorious computer and learn a ton about biotech and bioluminescence while you're at it 🦠 #bioluminescentpc @lightbynyoka https://twitter.com/LinusTech/status/1439273695764090885

I think @Raspberry_Pi has summed up my feelings best. Sir Clive Sinclair bought computing to the homes of many UK influenced areas, including NZ. From seeing a b&w image from a 1k ZX81 to the awe inspiring Spectrum- even the ill fated QL- got me hooked. Sad moment.

It’s an incredibly sad day for the British computing industry.

We’re always going to be very grateful to Sir Clive for being one of the founding fathers of the UK home computing boom that helped so many of us at Raspberry Pi get hooked on programming as kids.

Forgotten video: testing Octoprint + time-lapse. It's very cool, but does slow the print down a bit.

Will have to set it up again!

@HPSupport disappointed with current 8740 firmware (2107A). Cart out of ink...no dialog, just stuck at "printing..." Only prints if all carts have ink. Used to have a print in B&W option. Canceling job on printer-> chance won't print new jobs. Both fixed by reverting to fw 1903B. ... See MoreSee Less
