    New rooms, updated cases

    I'd say I have mine ready for christmas, I guess I was around order number 250 or so.

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    This is indeed thrilling. My 200LX is growing OLD. \o/ Glad to see some progress! Corona slowed this project down quite a bit.

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    The word is nucular ;) I guess anywhere on this Ellipsoid we call earth is equally fine as the curvature should be rather equal. If you're on the heavy side, I would recommend somewhere on equator, that makes you some lighter:D.

    Raspberry Pi OS Accused of 'Phoning Home' To Microsoft

    Ok, maybe the Desktop is not the last resort of Microsoft :D. Indeed I totally forgot about XBox, although I played with one just yesterday \o/. Azure may be Microsoft, but it will soon all be ruled by a small cute bird which is better at swimming than flying <3. I would have also found it...

    Good news! But I'm the patient kind of guy anyways ;).

    The Future of Pyra's CPU

    As far, as I know the better way would be to use Type C DisplayPort Alternate Mode. It injects Displayport Packets into the USB Traffic and has quite some spread now and does not use the USB 3 Lines in a blocking manner. Librem 5 has this implemented according to specifications. This is likely...

    Raspberry Pi OS Accused of 'Phoning Home' To Microsoft

    exactly this. I think this is rather a discussion about what MS could do, than what they do. I don't like automatically adding lines to my sources list either, but I can understand the reason. If someone is new to Linux, messing with the sources list is not something that I would recommend, but...

    Quick update inbetween

    I like Sokoban :happy:\o/ ... but I know what you mean, I have this every now and then when I handle a larger project.

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    Just checked, ordered on May the 3th xD. Could be enough to be in the first batch <3

    Just a quick heads up

    Don't forget, They have lobby, we don't. We certainly won't reach any authority with our complains if there are any. Most Ideas start out good and turn evil and hollow later (for example german Verpackungsverordnung -> read spoiler). 40-50 years ago, almost anything could be repaired, you even...

    Just a quick heads up

    I personally hope that there won't ever be legislation to regulate this. It would be just one more law that adds complexity for small companies like evil dragons, while all major companies will find a way arround that. I tried to get a product to market in germany before Corona. This is no fun...

    Do You Use A Gnu/linux Distro On Your Main Computer?

    My Fedora currently refuses to upgrade, as I have a NVME SSD retrofitted in an old C2Q Laptop. For booting I need the Bootloader and my Initrd on the Sata Disk. The Initrd needs to be compiled with NVME drivers enabled. Something somehow (I didn't figure out what exactly) breaks when I try to...

    Do You Use A Gnu/linux Distro On Your Main Computer?

    Thats exactly the problem with fedora, at least once a year. It's just to much change at once. I know that arch breaks things too from time to time, but first of all, the arch community seems to be much more competent than the fedora one in finding solutions, and second there wiki is just waaaay...

    Do You Use A Gnu/linux Distro On Your Main Computer?

    I'm using Fedora for my main machine (core2quad) still adequate for daily use. I'm wondering when the point comes where it's to slow. ARCH is used for my render PC. When I find the time I will move to arch completely, just sick of Version upgrades. No Windows as daily driver since about 8 Years...

    Just a quick heads up

    My bet would be that it will be after Christmas til the first Batch is out. Christmas is already very near and I'm pretty sure Evil Dragon has a lot todo with his Shop these days. But please prove me wrong mighty dragon ;).

    Just a quick heads up

    It is difficult to measure indeed. Even with an active probe you would probably add 1pF which could change the signal to much and don't forget that your probe is high impedance and acts as a stub that injects reflections back into the clockline and therefore changes the timing. It's probably...

    Just a quick heads up

    I couldn't find any technical reference manual for the OMAP 5, but if a Sitara am572x is close enough, I might have a solution. In the Sitara manual...

    Just a quick heads up

    I'm still a bit concerned about the audio issue. My high speed circuits had quite a bit of timing drift regarding temperature and did a automatic delay calibration on every startup. For me, this sounds like a SPI mode issue, just for I2S or whatever is being used. The newer chips I'm using have...

    It reminds me of the Pandora!

    Sounds good to me. Can't wait to replace Android! :D

    A case of polls!

    You may try to stop the time you need for each step and check if you can optimize the handling. I had a job assembling a few hundred units of something a while ago and even if it saves just 5 sec to put the screwdriver in another location so you can grab it faster ... 500*5 = 2500s = 41 min and...
