The Raspberry Pi Pico is currently the only board to offer the RP2040 but it won’t be that way for long. Adafruit have announced two new boards based upon the RP2040. The Feather 2040 and ItsyBitsy 2040 follow Adafruit’s own range of board layouts and bring extra features such as battery charging, larger storage capacity, STEMMA QT and Neopixels to the mix. Arduino have announced that they are working on the Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect, a variant of the RP2040 with WiFi and Bluetooth. SparkFun have also released the own board based upon the RP2040 which sees their design add a micro SD card and larger onboard flash storage to accommodate projects and corresponding files. Pimoroni have announced the smallest RP2040 based board, aptly named the Tiny2040, this board has less GPIO pins than most, but it has a large onboard flash storage just like SparkFun's board. … [Read more...] about Raspberry Pi Pico: Tutorials, Pinout, Everything You Need to Know

The keyboard layout is standard. The top row defaults to functions like volume and brightness, but you can use the “Function Lock” keystroke to switch this if you’d like the “F” keys to be the default. Other than that, the only unusual part of the layout is the location of the “Page Up” and “Page Down” keys. They’re above the left and right arrow keys respectively, a logical enough place when you think about it. Overall, it won’t take users long to get used to this keyboard, and they’ll probably love it once they do. … [Read more...] about Lenovo ThinkPad 13 Ultrabook review

If this happens, your computer might refuse to boot your operating system after POSTing, or it might not POST at all. Luckily this is a minor inconvenience with a quick fix. First, re-install whatever old hardware you removed to confirm the issue and boot your computer. Once the old hardware’s in, you can boot your computer, go to your motherboard manufacturer’s website, and find the latest BIOS/UEFI version. After installing the latest BIOS/UEFI version is complete, you can re-install your new hardware. … [Read more...] about The most common motherboard problems, and how to fix them

Let’s talk about the zoom. At 10x and 3x optical zoom levels, the results are often staggering. There’s masses of detail in the photos, unmarred by aggressive software enhancements, resulting in crisp, sharp, colorful, and well-balanced pictures you’ll be happy to share. It does have some problems, though. Put it against the Huawei P40 Pro — which gave us a highly capable 10x hybrid zoom in May 2020 — and you’ll find that the Huawei can capture far more realistic colors — and often even more detail in the process. However, the S21 Ultra doesn’t underexpose like the Huawei, making it the more consistently usable camera at this zoom level. … [Read more...] about Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra review: 2021’s true S Series phone, and the best yet
