ESP32 Project Lets Amiga Load ADF Disk Images Over Wi-Fi

David Smith detailed in a blog post how he revived his Amiga 1200 and created Cursed Stick, ESP32 firmware that mimics a USB stick when plugged into a Gotek floppy emulator. ADF disk images can be uploaded to the ESP32 over Wi-Fi via POST request or a web interface and appear instantly on the Amiga, removing the need to carry a USB stick back and forth. The project is currently a prototype on a development board, with plans for a compact USB-A device.
