I really don't know how to feel about this, the discussions around AI are draining with the people who hate talking about how its trash, and people who love it acting like it's an actual human.
Okay, so I get that news is mostly for non-technical people. I get it. But my goodness, can we not get a little better than "6 rumored iPhone 16 camera upgrades?" The camera? Again, and again, and again! Like is that all people think about? #rant
@pixelate picture a commercial following a family businessman through his day showing how an iphone helps. he uses it to read email. uses it to hold presentations. he uses it to find gifts for his wife. but most importantly, the new waterproof iphone now features a slow motion camera for those special moments. cut to him getting splashed with a bucket of pee in slow motion. every drop can be seen in the recording. later, he wipes the phone off and hands it to his wife. the iphone is for sharing.
A few days ago I started work on getting this LCD panel supported in U-Boot, which runs before Linux on this board. I found out I had to add not just the LCD but port the graphics driver to this chip (the Allwinner T113). Luckily it wasn't much work and after a few days I managed to get a picture! I expected this to take much longer.
@dusnm I had this discussion and it's just sad that there's so much victim blaming when it comes to this. The fact is that it is incredibly hard to write accessible HTML and very easy to screw up. Some tasks are plain not possible with it even with JS
I didn't want to deal with any more breadboard wire spaghetti so I finally made an adapter board that would do the wiring for me.
This board features female headers for my codec board and Mango Pi MQ board. It also includes male headers for signal input (8 channels are bridged together using jumpers) and debugging.
Things almost worked first try, I had just forgotten to connect a ground wire. Luckily this didn't fry anything!
I did some more work on this and it seems like role=log is broken in Windows Narrator on any browser and Orca on Chromium, aria-atomic="true" causes duplicate reads on Orca on Firefox, and aria-live="polite" causes duplicate talk on page load
After a month or so of hacking on kernel code I managed to get the T113 chip to output arbitrary clock frequencies! This took a lot of work and debugging, and help from people online. The end result is the ability to get arbitrary audio sampling values down to a margin of 1kHz, which really isn't bad. In this case I asked for 192,123,000Hz and got 192,123,800Hz. Hooray!
Yet another mandatory upgrade of the Proton mail bridge, yet they still can't get the thumb out of the sphincter to add even a modicum of #accessibility.
Like, I don't know, labeling their controls. Or, making the password field, the entire point of the app, focusable so that I can f*cking read it and use my email.
Oh well!
And yes, I've sent them emails. Dozens, actually. As have several others. They do not care.
@koz@jamie@stooovie@3dprinting For anyone interested, Qidi's approach is to have an application running as root that talks to the LCD and talks to Klipper and injects commands in to Klipper's command line. Very uncharismatic.
