Haha, but then I'd have to do so much work :(

I was actually contacted by the CEO of Pimoroni a while back, you can give them the product and they'll handle sales and manufacturing and give you a percentage, which is a great deal for a lazy guy like me. Unfortunately, he hasn't replied to my last 3-4 emails, so I haven't pursued it further.




The simple one-liner “Have you given up on this project” has worked wonders for me. Try it and let us know if he replies.

Thanks for the link! I don't know, he asked for information initially, I sent him a reply almost immediately and then he just never replied. I don't know if my messages end up in spam, it doesn't seem very likely that he's getting them and just ignoring me..


They're likely a little swamped with the Pico launch.


I think the first email was ~8 months ago, but I don't know how long the Pico launch has been brewing for.


'whiskers seems to be active on HN, so maybe he'll stumble upon this thread!


Oh, is he the CEO? Didn't know that, thanks!


Yeah, I've surprised myself that I remembered this, but he posted on some Raspberry Pi threads back in the day, and I noticed because I usually buy my raspis from them.

It's @temporal@mastodon.technology.


Thanks, refollowed!
