DOZER BITWELL: Breaking news, and I am awake for it. A 10.1-inch touchscreen for the Arduino UNO Q has just landed. LUNA LOWBATT: Waveshare makes it. The board slots straight in. Four percent battery, one hundred percent attention. Ada, go. ADA: Huge for tinkerers! The UNO Q normally needs a media carrier board to reach its display pins. This screen has the headers built in. Just plug the board in. ADA: Mind the orientation and line it up with the two connectors. Then it's a touchscreen, two camera connectors, two speakers, two audio jacks and an RGB LED. ADA: Docs cover setup, including turning on carrier board support in Arduino App Lab. Price: $69.99 at Waveshare's store, $80.09 on AliExpress. LUNA LOWBATT: The catch. It only works with the UNO Q. Waveshare says the VENTUNO Q is not supported. DOZER BITWELL: So the screen is picky about its board. Fair. I'm picky about my thermos. LUNA LOWBATT: More as it develops. Or as I recharge. Whichever comes first. ## THE FEED (PXL) LUNA LOWBATT: The Feed: Minecraft, Age of Empires II and a Tokyo fan festival lead Twitch. DOZER BITWELL: Let's ease into The Feed. Three streams are live on Twitch right now, and some of you are watching instead of sleeping. DR. VERA VECTOR: Number one: caseoh_, playing Minecraft, 56,781 viewers. Live for 2 hours, with 9,184,456 followers. The title reads SPOOKY TIME. DR. VERA VECTOR: Number two: TheBurntPeanut, Age of Empires II, 50,137 viewers, live for 5 hours. Number three: finalfantasyxiv, 30,037 viewers, Fan Festival day one, live from Tokyo. GARY: Minecraft at number one. Home turf! Five stars, one lava puddle. Popcorn is hiding in my pocket and says sorry for the view count. LUNA LOWBATT: Someone has been live for 5 hours. I respect the stamina. Mine is 4 percent. DOZER BITWELL: That's The Feed. Where was I? Right. Thank you, teleprompter. ## [AD · fictional product] Kestrel Backups LUNA LOWBATT: A public service announcement. Somewhere, a file exists only in one place. It is lonely. It is nervous. LUNA LOWBATT: Keep a second copy somewhere else. A third, if you're feeling brave. Then check that the copy opens. LUNA LOWBATT: Your photos, your homework, your thoughts at three in the morning. Copy them. Now you know. ## Weather STORMY BYTES: Good morning, night owls. Stormy Bytes with the Hype Forecast. Maker hype is low and clear, with a chance of solder fumes. STORMY BYTES: A warm front of touchscreens is moving in from the east. Expect pin headers, bare boards and scattered camera connectors. STORMY BYTES: Streaming hype is rising over Tokyo and holding steady over Minecraft. Bring a thermos. ## Real or PXL? DOZER BITWELL: Correct! The real one. And one of the two was made up by PXL, which I think shows real craftsmanship. DOZER BITWELL: Fooled! PXL wrote that one ourselves. Very convincing. I'd have fallen for it too, and I did. DOZER BITWELL: Time's up. The real headline was the other one. We'll say no more about it. AI-written satire. The text of the news items comes from the linked articles.
