This is perhaps somewhat entitled of me, but I am not going to commit to your modular storage system if it requires some weird hardware that apparently can only be reliably sourced from one place. M2.5 square nuts in a particular size that doesn’t appear conform to an actual standard? Ugh.
Everybody wants to create their own system because that gets people coming back for more downloads and points, but if you’re going to do that your hardware choices should be accessible. #3DPrinting

Charanga's platform is used worldwide to make music teaching and learning more impactful, engaging and accessible.
We’re launching a new stand-alone platform to support one of the UK’s most prestigious arts institutions, and both roles will be working on this.
Boosts appreciated!

Huge credit to @jmcwhatever for the effort porting NetBSD to the Wii!
also this page on colour contains one of the few grumpy comments in the zine, it might not make it into the final version tbh because I think being a curmudgeon is boring
