Yes. This is exactly what went down. Westerners - particularly Amerimutts - are clueless to the fact that Weimar Germany was basically in a perpetual state of bloody civil war thanks to jewish Commies trying to take over. Your try to tell normies of the absolute horrors of the era, and they give you a blank stare.

I like the uConsole, it's fun, but it's thumb-typing, it's fewer USB ports, smaller screen. It's a fun device, it's fun. It would go well with my Thinkpad, but the DevTerm replaced my Thinkpad.

Well, it's a portable. I think it'd be difficult to make it into a laptop replacement; the DevTerm actually has replaced my laptop, though.

Yeah, a lot of them look cool: https://cyberdeck.cafe/mix/msg , https://cyberdeck.cafe/mix/virtuscope .
I don't own a 3D printer and I don't want to make a goddamn keyboard. The DevTerm is, for about the cost of a used Thinkpad, way nicer than a Thinkpad. I got one, I have not left the room without it since. I read on it. Some people reach for their phones when they open their eyes, I reach for this thing. It's wonderful.

@p @TeaTootler @graf @Hyperhidrosis It is at least in theory possible to make a laptop with traditional computer parts. I tinkered with the idea but after derisive faggots on the internet shat on me over it I decided the world didn't need a modular laptop solution. And since I have no need for a laptop the idea died for a little under a decade.
Then RaspPis came out and I learned about other SBCs and now I don't even see the point. Get a small battery and a Pi or something if you want a DIY laptop.
And if you need anything beefier, just cobble together an enclosure for a normal computer, attach a handle and plug it into the literally millions of available sockets in whatever country your in. Simple really.
Though I gotta be honest the DevTerm looks great. Giving me flashbacks to the flip and slide phone days. -

This is why I have a DevTerm. It has a nice screen and keyboard and mouse device and battery life and those are the only things I need. If I get dumped in a Microcenter or an electronics warehouse in Shenzhen and I have a week to kill, maybe, but I look at "$200 for another Thinkpad" and "$200 for a DevTerm" and I get the DevTerm. It uses 18650s, I can pick those up at the store. All the parts: schematics, circuit diagrams, keyboard firmware, all of it. So this is much nicer than a Thinkpad. I would be *delighted* to spend a week making a modular cyberdeck but I don't have a week to spend on that.

@phnt @Hyperhidrosis @TeaTootler @graf @realman543 Ah, yeah, I mean, because of ratpoison I can switch fast, and I can see two columns of code pretty easily, three if I hide conky; my .ratpoisonrc for the DevTerm has these in it to basically toggle conky:
bind equal set padding 0 0 0 0
bind plus set padding 280 0 0 0
I mean, Unix was written in ed. vi is from the 80s. I can deal with three columns of code.✙ dcc :pedomustdie: :phear_slackware: likes this. -

I don't know, works for me. I haven't used my Thinkpad since; when I went out of town a week for a family emergency, I took the DevTerm and my Thinkpad, just in case, but I never booted the Thinkpad. Next time I didn't take the Thinkpad.

It's too small for me to use as a laptop, but I think it would be a really nice device for carrying around servers for a quick ssh and maybe some ipmi management. Basically a modern day portable terminal. I find my 15 inch laptop too big for that.

@TeaTootler @JoshuaSlocum The R-01 has difficulty with the CPU frquency controls, but you can turn off all the cores on the A-06 except one and then set the powersave governor and crank the clock down on the GPU. It's just diminishing returns at that point, like if the CPU's only eating 10% of the juice and 90% is the wifi adapter and the backlight on the screen, and you turn off another core and the CPU's down to 9%, like, you may as well keep the other core.
I just keep a battery bank, it'll do two days easy if you have a little extra power.✙ dcc :pedomustdie: :phear_slackware: likes this. -

> I’ve lost hope mine will ever ship
Then it's half-way to shipping, ha. I ordered the day after the announcement (I had already ordered a DevTerm that hadn't arrived yet), it took about a year, but that was a preorder.
> where do you recommend good hi cap 18650s from?
I have had really good luck with the MXJO ones. There was some dude, he did an entire extreme-autism video, he weighed the batteries, he plugged fans into them and recorded the fans to see when the paper streamers drooped and the fans went off: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMZuHMlRw_0 . The guy is more or less reading a spreadsheet out loud but the punchline is that the reputable manufacturers tend to not lie about capacity, Samsung and Panasonic and Sony have the best batteries, Chinese manufacturers will write whatever stupid number (9800mAh, wow!) and Amazon lets them. 3500mAh lasts about 4-6 hours on the A-06, 8-12 on the R-01, at least for the DevTerm. -

> 8-12 on the R-01,
I should say that it is mostly idle and that I measured it by using it a couple of hours, then passing out on the couch, and then waking up and it's still on. Even on the A-06, the backlight drains more juice than the CPU. -

@JoshuaSlocum @realman543 @TeaTootler @graf @Hyperhidrosis It's better than you think but maybe not as great as you'd hope. Basically, you can touch-type; I have giant hands and I touch-type on it. (Sometimes just with three fingers per hand, though, and then I use my index fingers to hit the spacebar and use the trackball.)
Like, it's usable. It's fine. It's big enough that it feels like a keyboard. I can type at maybe 80% of normal speed. -
