If using slightly less drastic settings and running the output through some gentle noise reduction and a tiny bit of reverb the #RadioShack delay can actually sound quite sweet too!

Sorry about the mediocre playing - piano isn't exactly my forte.

Also, who can spot the bonus #Caturday?

While we're at it - what about the mud brown resistors? :blobcatThink:

@mxtthxw @oleksiy

It might be worth getting someone to have a look at that Realistic "reverb".

I believe they are pretty much the same inside as my Radio Shack one (just a rebrand), which does have some fun #CircuitBending potential (and should be pretty easily fixable by someone with electronics chops).

I nearly bought an overpriced PCM5102 DAC on Amazon, as I wanted to experiment with a decent quality line out for my radio.

Then I remembered I still had a #Pimoroni PHAT DAC somewhere.

Thanks to @gadgetoid's brilliant https://pinout.xyz I had it hooked up to my Pico in no time, playing a modified #CircuitPython script by @todbot.

Here I'm switching between headphones plugged into the PCM5102 and a MAX98357 DAC hooked up to a speaker.

Rubia was not impressed! 🐈

We are both enjoying the stream!

On closer inspection...

Nah, it's buggered, mate!

I want you to draw me like one of your French cats!

When I just received #Pimoroni's Pico GFX Pack I just had to have a go at displaying @radiofreefedi@botsin.space's now playing metadata.

My initial inspiration came from @mikesheldon's RGB matrix version at https://octodon.social/@mikesheldon/109800654967812982 , and I heavily borrowed code from @blitzcitydiy's #MastodonAPI CircuitPython experiments at https://mastodon.social/@blitzcitydiy/109360738427088845 .

Code will follow ASAP.

And here is a quick sound demo of the ancient radio turned bluetooth speaker.

It won't win any awards for sound quality, but is better than I expected. Plus,#RubiaTheCat approves too!

#RubiaTheCat sez O Hai!

Last weekend #RubiaTheCat helped me sort out olives, this week she has been on inspection duties to make sure I am doing a proper job cutting each one individually before submerging them in fresh water.

I am wearing gloves as the olive juices can stain skin for days.

Over the next few weeks the water needs changing daily to remove the olives' bitterness before they can be brined and jarred.

#CatsWithJobs #Caturday #olives

After nearly 3 months away, I'm finally reunited with #RubiaTheCat.

Today she's been overseeing my efforts at sorting out some of the olives we harvested over the last few days - the ones on the trailer are to be brined.
