But first, the news. German company Isar Aerospace can now claim that they've launched the first spacecraft into orbit from Europe. Be sure to check out the in-link, where we reported on the building of the spaceport. In Hackaday news, the aforementioned Retrocomputing Contest had 64 entries at last check, which is just perfect for Episode 386. Will yours be the 65th? Supercon Ten tickets are selling out , and per Elliot, the talks have been chosen, pending approval by each submitter. Keep an eye on the blog for the official announcement! After reviewing the news, Elliot reached into the ol' Mailbag and found two missives, including another from [Vik Olliver] regarding the printing of LEGO. The other is from [Mendel Munkis], who has been enjoying Wikipedia offline since 2018, thanks to a 32-bit ARM9 processor. Then, it was on to the hacks. Check out the links below if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments !","meta_description":"In this specially-numbered podcast episode that lines up quite nicely with our Retrocomputing Challenge , Elliot Williams and Kristina Panos met over surp…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2796,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/hackaday-podcast-679153/episodes/ep-386-doomscroll-tamagotchis-clavichords-and-vibrotrucks/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hackaday-podcast-679153/ep-386-doomscroll-tamagotchis-clavichords-and-vibrotrucks.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
