RISC OS Developments is pleased to announce the release of RISC OS Direct 5.31, complete with wifi and a JavaScript web browser to deliver what we believe to be the best possible experience of RISC OS on Raspberry Pi 4 and below. riscosopen.org/forum/forums/1…

Elesar will be at the RISC OS London show tomorrow, walkable from Kenton station, along with 21 other exhibitors - much better to see products in 3D rather than on the internet.

I just supported RPCEmu with £5 on Buy Me a Coffee! 🎉 You can support them here — buymeacoffee.com/rpcemu

Open Source RISC OS Now Has WiFi and Modern Web Browser on Raspberry Pi The OS first released in 1987 for Acorn computers is becoming a viable modern desktop.

🚨 #RISC_OS Community: The first of the new AI Assistants is now publicly available for everyone! Check the link below for more details on how to access and use it — have fun! 👨‍💻 riscosopen.org/forum/forums/1… #riscos #AI #GenAINetwork #OpenAI #TechNews #RetroComputing

Announcing RiscDOCK: The Ultimate Docking Solution Formulated with RISC OS in mind, RiscDOCK is the ultimate RISC OS modular docking and computing solution, delivering superb functionality and convenience for your setup. Visit riscosbits.co.uk/riscdock #RISC_OS #RiscDOCK

As a spin-off from the RISC OS Pyromaniac work, I've been creating a build environment for RISC OS 64 binaries. This is still a work in progress, but building and running 64bit binaries is relatively painless. asciinema.org/a/684622 shows a short video of the compilation.

Little bit more progress. Mostly built up a container for tabs that can be nested. Still have to make it so you can drag a tab from one container to another or drag tabs out to their own free windows. #RISC_OS

Important note for all international users, with these AIs you can now interact with both the RISC OS and the BBC BASIC User guides in your own native language, example (in Italian):

The first #ARM CPU was powered up 40 years ago next month (26th April) at #Acorn Computers, who went on to develop #RISC_OS for it - and at #RISCOSNorth you can find out where the OS is today. Two weeks to go: 29th March. Village Hotel Warrington. riscosnorth.uk

This project will finally help sharing files between #RISC_OS and modern platforms in a very easy way and with a robust and reliable new ShareFS Server which can also work across multiple subnets. The Server will also be secured.

TOMORROW! Join Archive and many other exhibitors at the RISC OS North show in Warrington. We'll have a brand new issue which will be hot off the presses (possibly literally). More info here: riscosopen.org/forum/forums/1… #acorn #raspberrypi #opensource #magazine

The next developers' fireside chat for #RISC_OS is on Saturday, 26th April - coincidentally, the same day the #arm processor celebrates its 40th birthday. riscository.com/2025/developer…

It's only FOUR WEEKS to go until RetroFest. Our exhibitors are slaving away to get their machines ready - and what better way to test them than displaying our logo! Tickets are selling fast, so we recommend buy one in advance if you can - retrofest.uk/tickets.php

#RISC_OS I've put together a presentation page for #ProjectMerlin, which also includes a real-time progress update widget. This is to help answer questions I've received from various people. It's just a fun project, I am not tryign to save #riscos! riscoscommunity.org/projects/risc-…

Are you interested in coding on RISC OS? Want to learn more? Join our friendly fireside chat on Zoom—DM for credentials (unchanged). If you are a developer, come and connect. The event is this Saturday, 5th July, at 7:30 pm (GMT+1). #OpenSource #RISC_OS #Community #Code4Fun #Zoom

So, if you want to know what's going on this weekend with #MerlinOS (a brand new #RISC_OS redesigned from the ground up), check this blog post of mine: paolozaino.wordpress.com/2025/08/08/mer… #OperatignSystem #rustlang #rustproof #kernel #SoftwareEngineering #CodingLife

Fancy some reading over the festive period? The new issue of Archive Magazine is out now! The Dec/Jan 2026 issue is absolutely packed with all sorts of RISC OS awesomeness. It's not too late to subscribe and get a copy. archivemag.co.uk #riscos #opensource

If you have a spare 10 minutes, I strongly suggest reading a wonderful article on the requirements of a modern kernel and how to make it work with RISC OS.
