Mostly Bits Newsletter - Issue #113

Tony's Pick

Molly White (creator of Web3 is Going Great) recently launched Follow The Crypto to keep track of crypto PAC spending on this year’s US elections. Excellent and important work! I also recommend her newsletter, which I get as a podcast.

This week I learned about the crazy idiots over at the BitBuilt forums who slice up circuit boards from old game systems to fit them into tiny enclosures. Their latest project is the “Nintendo Kawaii,” a keychain-sized Nintendo Wii.

That project also led me to Short Stack, which is a slightly bigger mod that retains Bluetooth and controller ports at the expense of size. (The README is a bit more legible than digging through the BitBuilt forums too.)
