You have enraged a group of people who enjoy puzzles and suddenly have a lot of free time.

back from and a hacking project was already waiting for me at the door
One is supposedly working fully and 3 are broken in some ways.

They are old Cisco conference room cameras with really good optics and a gimbal. They do 1080p60hz HDMI out and have 12x optical zoom.

Ok did not expect such a hefty PCB.
Huge Altera Cyclone III EP3C120F780C8N on the image output side and a signal processor from TI "TMS320DM642"

Mind boggling that these cameras get dumped for ~40$ now. The three broken ones I got for 35GPB total and they seem perfectly functional except one that doesn't have an image output (which is why we get PCB pictures now)

I often think about "computer bad" and similar defeatism — so much is fixable via training, customization + just not buying garbage (which requires money, money solves a lot of problems!).

I'll never understand folks complaining about something they have the means to fix.

I can't accept that "everything is shit". I accept the bad things, but looking for the good things is a matter of survival for me.

And there is plenty of good. Meds helping, I can see that now. I can't stop everyone else from complaining, but I can feel.. blessed.

after a lot of trial and error and reverse engineering of a hdmi adapter from the seller i got the alternative display panel for pocket reform up and running today, finally. this was hard because docs were severely limited and @timonsku and me were extremely puzzled why nothing was working. in the end the escape clock frequency was too high, setting it to 24MHz worked.

    OK, I knew about some of the problems with StickerMule, but not all of these.
    If you're still using them, please consider switching to one of the many alternative services, like StickerNinja which is awesome.
    TLDR: they called an advocate for indigenous women a "Liberal Moron", the CEO has supported and donated to Trump and anti-LGBT causes, and they have been sued for underpaying employees for overtime.

    Tell me again how a platform locked to an exclusive app store protects us from apps that obviously and broadly violate the content policies.
    Well, as soon as the press finds out then we're protected.
    From those three apps.

    We urgently need more @emf sponsors - if we do not secure more, we will have to make tough decisions.

    Tickets cover base costs, but sponsors pay for lovely things like our free childcare and talk transcription. Every little helps!
