We did it! We moved Black Magic Debug project to Codeberg! 🎉

Thank you #codeberg for all the hard work to offer an alternative! Onwards and upwards! 🚀

My cart is calling!
Started with @GSGlabs LUNA to build a custom USB device with @enjoy_digital LiteX.
✅ LiteX now includes an Amaranth2VConverter module: it's now easy to integrate Amaranth cores.
✅ An LUNA ACM wrapper is integrated and can serve as a ValentyUSB alternative.
Tested on the @RadionaOrg ULX4M board.
A little rough for my time zone, but if you are in Europe, Sunday morning at 8 AM, there's this RISC-V FPGA LiteX:
A blue, boring rectangle shape with some mounting posts and blanks at the end where USB, HDMI, and audio controls would be: all the exact dimensions of an Elecrow 7 inch display.
HDMI display side, with a blank blue insert instead
Feature complete view of the ULX side, with OLED frame, keychain adapter, stand.
Working on my ULX3S enclosure this weekend! Or more specifically, this insert to use instead of an actual 7 inch HDMI display. Useful if you don't have or want a display to use with this enclosure.
FPGA devices are indeed magic!

Just incase you want to WEAR your ULX3S FPGA + ESP32
I got you covered:
keyhole-to-keychain-ring lanyard adapter!

Here's the rear view showing the ULX3S side of my 3D printed display enclosure. A mix of o test colors to aid in documentation.

Behold! My first ever, end-to-end assembly of the enclosure I designed for the Radiona ULX3S FPGA with the @elecrow.bsky.social 7 inch HDMI display!
Shown here running the test pattern by @brunolevy01.bsky.social
Running the next test print of my updated ULX3S enclosure today! Here we're about 5 hours into a 9+ hour 3D print on the @prusa3d.com MK3S.

The ULX3S Elecrow HDMI Display Side looks like this:
"back" side of the enclosure, with various holes and buttons for the ULX3S and internal speakers.
The ULX3S side (Developer Version) looks like this:
The ULX3S board mounted in a black plastic, 3D printed enclosure half.
My #ULX3S FPGA + ESP32 enclosure for the Elecrow 7 inch HDMI display is coming along well.
Internal USB wire routing and strain relief. Improved external hole alignment. A few remaining anomalies, but looking good!

Screen snip from Arduino-wolfSSL PR #4 wolfSSL 5.8.4 Release for Arduino This is a restructured wolfSSL for the Arduino library. See Initial #1. Reminder: the Arduino library requires this repository to be updated, and a tag created before being available in the Arduino library. See the requirements of Arduino libraries as described in the Arduino Library Specification. See also: https://downloads.arduino.cc/libraries/logs/github.com/wolfSSL/Arduino-wolfSSL/ https://docs.arduino.cc/learn/starting-guide/software-libraries/ This Update: Used the (nearly) fully automated scripts/arduino/publish_arduino.sh (edited the WOLFSSL_VERSION=5.8.4) Tested in this repo with Arduino CI Build (4 of 4) Arduino-wolfSSL Tested in wolfssl-examples with Arduino CI Build (3 of 4) Latest wolfSSL for Local Examples Tested in wolfssl-examples with Arduino CI Build (2 of 4) Release wolfSSL for Local Examples Tested in core wolfSSL with Arduino CI Build (1 of 4) wolfssl Adds support for more boards.
@wolfssl.com wolfSSL 5.8.4 Update for Arduino!!
More boards, more examples, best tested crypto!
❤️ Open Source ❤️
🟢 TLS 1.3 client and server, including post quantum!
🟢 DTLS client server, secure datagrams!
🟢 AES_CTR example
🟢 Bare-bones template to get started
Love this! #retrocomputing #coding

There are a limited number of ULX3S FPGA + ESP32 boards available at Mouser Electronics. @gmahovlic.bsky.social for more details.
If you want one, now is the best time to order it. Makes a super cool gift. Yes, Christmas is month after next. 🌲

I'm live streaming next week!
I'll be giving a presentation for @wolfssl.bsky.social regarding Open Source Post Quantum Cryptographic Solutions for the Satellite Industry.
Although space-specific, the concepts apply to any system needing secure communication.
