I have a feeling that the USB hub the Raspberry Pi folks unexpectedly dropped this week may be useful for the Pi 500? We know of Pi 500 and CM5 still to come, to add to their recent release train. Maybe Pico 2 W as well before EOY. What else could they surprise us with...

If you still have an account on X/“Twitter” - even if it’s locked or private and abandoned - the new TOS over there apparently says they’re going to train AI on your posts from November, *and*, if you still do use it sometimes, they are breaking the block functionality… so why not rip off that sticking plaster and finally delete it? I did. I deleted a *lot* of them (one of which I used for over 15 years). You can do it!

We posted our monthly @npub1u84d...s78a team update, for a look at what changes went into the final 4.3 release - thanks @renchap (and the whole team for their work here!)
