Ian was a lyrical genius and the band can't half play too. Van Gogh did some eyeball pleasers He must have been a pencil squeezer He didn't do the Mona Lisa That was an Italian geezer.

Blockheads were the perfect foil for Ian’s lyrics. Chaz Jankel is a genius.

A UK number one in early 1979, “Hit Me with Your Rhythm Stick” was released in November 1978 by Ian Dury and the Blockheads. Performed here on Top of the Pops, the track is known for its complex rhythm and wordplay, written by Ian Dury and Chaz Jankel.

Ian Dury - Razzle in My Pocket Dury at his most grubby and mischievous; out stealing porn mags, to the slinkiest of grooves. Crude, and very British. An unlikely national treasure grinning from ear to ear. 1977.

24h later we tested more! What should we test next on the LibreBoard by 256 Foundation ? - MIPI DSI Port with a Display with Touch! - Full Raspberry Pi HAT via Sense Hat with joystick, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Brightness, Pressure and a fun 8x8 RGB LED Matrix - Finally powered just by 12v-18v and no longer 5v and 12v, making it super easy to deploy anywhere What feature did you always want a Miner Control-board to have but couldn't because it was not open source? Let me know and I will build and test it!

Open source mining firmware + AI = unstoppable. ⚡ For years, people have tried to chase excess solar power with bitcoin miners. Stock firmware doesn't let you adjust power at all. Third-party firmware was too slow, some even restarted mining every time you changed the target. 256 Foundation & Ryan Kuester's Mujina just solved that. In this video: what I've been building with RY3T for their upcoming RY3T NOVA. ☀️ It tracks a power target anywhere from 1,000W to 3,000W, stepless, within seconds. Connect it to your inverter or smart home and turn excess solar into sats, instead of selling it back to the grid for pennies. NOVA scales to 1-3 miners, up to 9kW. 🔋 Learn more at (CH and EU currently - interested other places? let me know) A lot more coming in the next few weeks. Open source bitcoin mining hardware + software + AI is about to get very interesting. 🚀
