@aud I'm just in the process of conceiving a new contemporary computing device. Maybe you'd be interested as a replacement...

It's a cube shaped box, roughly 5-10cm of dimension. At the top there is one big button. If you press it, it vibrates aggressively and through a loudspeaker it says loudly "WHAT THE FUCK!?"
It will be very useful in the coming days, weeks and years. I'm certain people will love it!

#Programming bei Herbstliche Informatiklehrerfortbildung – HILF! Fakultät für Informatik und Elektrotechnik an der Universität Rostock. Eine Fortbildung für Lehrende. Ich durfte als Gastdozent über #PhysicalComputing und #DigitaleMesswerterfassung im #MINT Unterricht referieren. Selbstverständlich hatte ich meine drei Freunde dabei, Raspberry Pi Pico, Arduino UNO und Calliope Mini. Die Teilnehmer eine kleine Wetterstation programmiert und Messdaten erfasst und verarbeitet. #micropython #STEM

Powering on #astropi sense HAT for the first time.

8yo (who has been coding against the emulator so far) : "Oh wow, it's a rainbow! Oh look! Each one has a little red, green and blue light in it. Mind blown... It all makes sense now!"
Me: "What makes sense?"
8yo: "the RGB in the code, it's how much red, green and blue for the lights!
...
So, can we show my cat on it now?"

She'd heard the explanation, but actually seeing it... Clicked!
The power of #physicalcomputing.

Thanks @Raspberry_Pi
