Daniele Verducci 🧉At the end, all will fit in this enclosure (there was an adsl filter inside). I made some holes for the usb and the reset button. The front hole contained two rj11 sockets, I cut the central divisor and obtained a hole the perfect size for the <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/uart" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#uart</a> to <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/rs232" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rs232</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/db9" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#db9</a> connector.<br>Most of my <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/retrocomputing" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retrocomputing</a> gear has the old <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/db25" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#db25</a> connector, so I'll need an adapter anyway...<br><br><a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/zimodem" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#zimodem</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/wifi" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wifi</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/modem" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#modem</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.ichibi.eu/tag/hayes" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hayes</a>

Mister Prickles 🦔<p>I&#39;ve said it before, and I&#39;ll say it again. <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Bluetooth" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Bluetooth</span></a> is absolute shit. Nobody knows how to implement pairing. It routinely sucks in the same way <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/DB25" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DB25</span></a> parallel ports used to suck, except Bluetooth has the added mystery of wireless.
