    I put pics etc of the new test build up on the Pimoroni forum.

    Going to take a break from it for now. Neck and shoulders are sore from being hunched over the keyboard. I have a bunch of stuff to do around the house anyway, yard work etc.

    This kickstarted item must be somehing some Pi owners were waiting for,$184.00 cdn,

    Looks nice, price is right. It looks like the Pi's power jack etc are pointing down, are on the bottom? Might make using it without a stand tricky?

    Back to tinkering with my PICO Breakout Garden stuff. BME280 is supported now. I also have that same bigger 240x240 LCD used on the PICO Explorer to tinker with. I'd like to start doing something with the display other than just showing bouncing balls on it. So far that's about all I have done. I've run the demo's just to make sure everything I have plugged in works.

    I have PICO stuff here, and there. And Pi stuff here and there. My Micro Bit stuff and Arduino stuff is in boxes and labeled though. Plus a few unmarked boxes with odds and ends in them.

    If I'm cleaning up, it just means I can't find something I need. Or I'm going to build something new to add more clutter, lol.

    A while back, quit a while back actually, I was wanting a way to track the barometric pressure on my weather clock. I tried several things that just didn't work out. I do believe I finally have a solution. The Enviro weather and light file does it. It calls it a trend, but its basically the same thing, rising or falling and how fast a change.

    Code:
            # Calculate trend
            if r_squared > 0.5:
                if change_per_hour > 0.5:
                    trend = ">"
                elif change_per_hour < -0.5:
                    trend = "<"
                elif -0.5 <= change_per_hour <= 0.5:
                    trend = "-"
    
                if trend != "-":
                    if abs(change_per_hour) > 3:
                        trend *= 2
    A < is falling, << is falling rapidly, etc. I'll just replace the < with falling. There isn't room to do that on the little 0.96 LCD but its just some extra text in my scrolling message on my Unicorn HD weather clock display's. Should be doable on the Sense Hat THP version too.

    EDIT: What's posted is just the display part of the code. There is another bigger block that does all the fancy math stuff. The part I couldn't figure out how to do on my own.
