@hypha no idea... these traders are not always easy to deal with

backup display supplier sent us 60+% broken displays, cool cool... things really suck sometimes. but at least we have something to work with

hey i compiled @servo on the RK3588 MNT Reform (arm64) and it works! our website is usable, but missing the svg logo in the top bar :D

our products are now available at mouser electronics! https://www.mouser.de/manufacturer/mnt-research/product-line/

i am now on a 4-day long weekend/holiday but earlier this week i was hacking a bit on the hdmi (esp secondary hdmi) driver code for rk3588 and 1440p @ 120Hz worked fine in a quick test, so this should be a comfy setup.

ordered a dell u2724de monitor for my home to see if i can use it as a charger+hub+monitor for rk3588 pocket reform based home workstation. will need to connect 2 cables to dock: 1x usb-c (with pd) and 1x micro-hdmi for display. mouse + keyboard will stay connected to the monitor.

linux is just 1000 hangry people in a trenchcoat

erst heute gecheckt, dass firewall == brandmauer und die gar nicht aus feuer ist (so d&d style), sondern vor feuer/brand schützt

shot from the stage at #kicon2024 #kicon thanks for having me, this was fun!

i hope the hdmi output of reform will just work. i didn't get any tech rider, or any other info about the event. nada

spoiler for my talk tomorrow morning (9:15) at KiCon 2024 in bochum. still needs a bit of polishing, will do that in the train tonight. btw i like pictures

building this preso would be even nicer if libreoffice impress didn't crash all the time 🙃 at least there's a recovery button...

i think it crashes when moving the cursor out the window/screen while it is saving. this same problem was exhibited by inkscape a while ago

what are your favorite open source hardware projects using KiCAD that are _not_ by MNT?

imagine if rents were really low, for homes and small businesses also... everybody would have a bunch more time and not be in a constant fight to make ends meet. imagine how one could take time to do stuff and how much interesting and creative spaces and stuff we could get. weird that (at least in berlin) this changed so dramatically (i'm here for around 20 years now). i know, i know, nothing new here. just saying!

was hyperfocusing for 5 hours or so on mnt reform next charger/monitor debugging and some related, pcb surgery now v hungy and making vegan burger

also there are variables inside of strings and there's maybe also objects? because there's dot notation. is If an object? why is If a parent of False? is this maybe a suffix language?

it looks like there's a language, and there's a syntax, but they're not on the same level. it looks like there's a syntax for an AST here...

i have ALSA UCM on my TODO list for a long time but every time i open those files i'm like ooooof and close them again

to explain the syntax, the docs just link to https://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-lib.git;a=blob;f=include/use-case.h
