The CPU was changed. https://twitter.com/Foone/status/1302453805057896448 https://twitter.com/Foone/status/1302453805057896448 "The existing CPU can't be reprogrammed and the existing LCD can only show 4 things, so I had to replace both to make any changes. And the current version doesn't even fit into the shell! (although I'm certain it will when complete)"

Ahhh, I stand corrected :) Sometimes Foone's threads go on so long that twitter UI just gives up on linking them, or so it seems.

  There's a Twitter App for Firefox https://addons.mozilla.org/nn-NO/firefox/addon/nitter-redirect/ https://addons.mozilla.org/nn-NO/firefox/addon/nitter-redire... that makes it possible to view several 160 char messages at the same time. Computers are so fast these days it is amazing.

    Minor nit - Twitter messages are up to 280 characters now. https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/product/2017/tweetingmadeeasier.html https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/product/2017/tweetingm...

    The fact that you need to install a browser extension or use some other tool to view tweets in this manner is a big indicator that something is either wrong with Twitter for these kinds of posts or these kinds of posts are better served elsewhere. It’s akin to writing a novel on post-its.

      Someone -- it may have been OP actually -- has said that his ADHD makes it impossible for him to focus long enough to write and publish a blog post for things like this, but Twitter is low-commitment, low-attention enough that he can get it done. I really hate Twitter for this kind of content as well, but I'd rather have it there then not have it at all.
