gollark: Er, not specs, Micropython docs.
gollark: Hold on, I'll check the specs.
gollark: I suppose if I "borrow" one from some friends (there are lots around) I could use the radio feature to... send Morse code between two of them at 50m range, or something?
gollark: Hmm, it says here that it also has an accelerometer, magnetometer, and a speech synthesis library for some bizarre reason. Also buttons. I forgot those.
gollark: Yes, with external RAM and storage.
