Dilder Goes Real-Time: FreeRTOS, Dilder-to-Dilder Hellos, and a BUSY-Line Whodunit
The Dilder firmware grew up this month. It moved off a single bare-metal super-loop and onto FreeRTOS running on both cores of the RP2350, learned how to wave hello to other Dilders in the wild, got a proper emote system, and — along the way — taught us to read a board's health from a single line of serial output while chasing down three "dead" units that turned out to be very much alive.
