Hackaday covers a quirky project that wires a 6th‑gen iPod Nano to three monitors by tapping its composite video output via a 30‑pin Keyboard Dock and adapters.

Hackaday introduces Wrencher-2, a chat assistant powered by the collective expertise of its team rather than generative algorithms, providing pithy and on-the-nail answers to hardware hacking queries. The AI offers advice on selecting MCUs, solving household problems, and using tools, while maintaining a personal touch. Access to Wrencher-2 was limited to the early hours of April 1st due to human limitations and lack of funding, but the team looks forward to its potential impact.
