Little weekend project. Built a faithful Casio F-91W on a Waveshare ESP32-S3 reflective LCD. Hand-traced SVG segments, NTP time, captive portal setup, 0.06W in clock mode.
Web flasher, no install needed.

Looking back through some old photos and found this one of a mini "The Simpsons" arcade machine I was working on. Would be fun to finish it. #retro#arcade#Simpsons
To brighten up budget day, I am giving a set of these Fabulous Mr Benn badges away.
To be in the bowler hat, all you have to do is retweet this tweet.
